Group membership vs Groups.io membership

 

Hi, folks. I'm hoping to move a 5000+ member Yahoo group to your platform.? So, I've joined? Groups.io? as a member (subscriber?), created? the new group with you, and aligned the group settings
as closely as?possible to those of the old group. So far, so good.? Very good, actually.
?
Where I still have a question, however, is whether all those folks who are swept in from? Yahoo have any obligation to individually sign up with Groups.io? Or is that already done for them as part of the sweep.
?
Thanks.

My Yahoo Group is now 350th in line to be imported into "groups.io"? ?It was 482nd a week ago.?? 132 groups in a week.?? So: 19 per day + however many expedited ahead of us.? My group is waiting.

Thanks Duane. Suspected so but still 'damn'!
Re: What if you don't want to pay for expedited transfer?

 

You can pay the $220 for a transfer and wait or pay an additional $200 extra, $420 total, for it to be expedited.? They're separate fees.

You are sending the invitation from your YahooGroup, right?

Depending on how large the files are, how fast the connection is, and how loaded the site is, it can take awhile to upload.? On many browsers, the "Sending request to Groups.io" is the only indication that it's doing anything.? On a few browsers, it will show the progress of the upload.

True, but if they join Groups.io with a different email address, it won't work as smoothly. Better to join with whatever they are using for YG and change the email address after if they wish.

Our old messages are not of immediate concern but it would be great if we could get folks using our group now. We have been hovering around the 500 groups ahead of us for a while. We go down, then go back up again as people are expediting. Expediting is not an option for us but we should would like to start using the group itself if I could find a how-to-do-it. :)

Thank you.

See if you can raise the money from your members. If the messages are important, surely members would pitch in.

Re: What are the email addresses I should use?

 

Email addresses are on your group home page.

GMF - are?

Group Email Addresses


There is also a help email - but it just sends back some potted help.?

If you have a main group plus subgroups -?

We have used PayPal for donations for a very long time and I really like them. They have excellent customer service and very clear documentation. I don't try to get around the fees because they are providing a legitimate and valid Service. ?Of course, we should pay fees.

Create New Folder/Upload Folder to Files

 


I'm the Moderator of a group and today I've been trying to upload a
directory containing 9 files.

I click "Upload Directory" button in Files
The text box shows up.
I click Browse and click the directory and click "Upload"
I do not click "Notify Members" box. Do I have to click the "Notify Members" box to upload a directory to Files?.
I enter a brief description then click "ADD".

After a minute, nothing is uploaded. I see in the bottom left
corner of my monitor

"Sending request to Groups.io"

and still, nothing is uploaded.

I tried creating a new Folder.
The text box comes up and I enter the folder's name,
enter a short description of the folder then click "ADD"
Again, no folder is created and I see the same

"Sending request to Groups.io"

Is there something I'm missing here? I had no problem creating
a directory and uploading a file last week but not now.

If you have a free group, you would have to do it external to the group, via a third party such as PayPal.

What are the email addresses I should use?

 

I am not necessarily going to be the person in charge of the io group, but I am the one that started one. Our Yahoo group sent a monthly information message and I was planning to copy that, though our policies might change since the person in charge of my Yahoo group is leaving for health reasons. Obviously the following information will change.



To post a message to the whole group, email to: Beautiful-Instrumentals@...
To unsubscribe or leave the group, email to: Beautiful-Instrumentals-unsubscribe@...
To subscribe to the group, email to: Beautiful-Instrumentals-subscribe@...
