Re: Moving Yahoo group can't find how to invite [email protected]
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýBonnie,If you just want to use your Group as a mailing list, without archives, files, photos, etc you may not have to move at all. My understanding, always subject to correction, is tha Yahoo Groups is becoming just an email reflector. FWIW. ===================== On 10/30/2019 12:27 PM, Bonnie Hunter

Hi Bruce,?
I thought maybe it was the iPad that was prevented me from seeing font styles and sizes.? |

Re: My settings are for HTML but I'm getting Plain Text
Bruce,
I have several subscriptions to a test group. ? Different Email subscriptions to cover all choices
Individual email and special both give me the problem.
Haven¡¯t gotten a digest or summary yet.
All accounts show HTML as well as the owner settings.

As Frances mentioned, you need to set your group to Restricted to prevent people from automatically being added as members. ?Duane -- Help: /static/help GMF's Wiki: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Search button at the top of Messages list A few site FAQs: /static/pricing#frequently-asked-questions |
Re: failure to accept invitation AND other YG issues
Most times when you see "Sorry, an error occurred while loading the content." it's a sign that Yahoo isn't working correctly.

I have the "crown" and am listed as a moderator but permissions???To promote the transfer agent, you will need the "Add, remove, and change?moderator?privileges"?permission in your Y!G. I don't see anyplace to view or change permissions. I was just recently upgraded to moderator in order to effect these transfers so am a noobie moderator.You can't do it. The existing Owner will either have to provide you with this permission, make you a co-owner, or promote the transfer agent himself Bruce |

These I can help with, someone else will need to answer the other parts. At the present time, there's not a way to only find NC, though it's been asked for on the beta group.? It's much better than it was because at least now the badge is a different color. While signed in, go to your account using the drop down at the upper right.? It will either show your Display name or the first part of your email address.? On that list, select Account.? On the resulting page, select Preferences from the left menu.? Toward the bottom of the page where it says Items Per Page, you can select 20, 50, 100, or infinite scroll.? Be aware that infinite scroll doesn't work on certain areas of the site and will return you to 20.? In all those cases that I've found so far, 100 works.

Re: Got added to forum by mistake?
Just tell her NOT to mark it as SPAM.
She should unsubscribe. Either by the email link or by emailing a blank message to

Unfortunately, no. I once asked for that to be added to the blue "Members" pull-down menu but the idea never got much traction. Yes. Go to your Account Preferences page (/account?page=prefs) and change the "Items Per Page" entry. I recommend using 100...infinite scroll does not play nicely with databases. Normally, yes. But if their cumulative storage needs in a given digest exceed your setting for Max Attachment Size, they are stored online and sent as links instead. Correct. The Daily Summary does not include any individual message content, just links to active Topics and a list of people who have posted to those topics. Bruce |
Re: Got added to forum by mistake?
I don't think she did.? She's not very computer savvy and doesn't even know how to get the group online.? I've been walking her through with much hand holding the whole seamless switch over.? Maybe a weird combination of keystrokes got her there, but it's a mystery.??

Re: Transfer and mystery member
It's been 5 days since we completed the steps for the transfer.? While I realize it may take a few additional days is there somewhere we can check the status??There is info on checking the status on #8 on this FAQ -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/FAQ-on-Moving-from-Yahoo-Groups Also - will the members listed on the Yahoo site auto receive invitations to join?? I'd heard/read yes but had not seen a place to mark it that way and want to ensure we are covered.They will get a welcome notice. Either the plain vanilla variety or your customized one. Go to Admin, Settings the Member Notices tab. You can set up a variety of notices. /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Quick-Start-for-Group-Formation Lastly, someone has joined our group - 1. the group was marked as private as only club members will be allowed to join and 2. Is this something that occurs as part of the transfer?? I don't want to delete him unless know ok to do.--? You should set up a Pending Subscription notice -? Frances |
