Hello,

I upgraded my group to Premium Yearly plan?and paid. I invited "[email protected]" to join my Yahoo group. It looks like I can "select your?Existing Transfer?transfer, and tell us that you are ready for the transfer to happen."

The only problem is [email protected]?is not a member of my Yahoo group yet. Not in pending and I have refreshed my members and resorted the list. The "transfer" member is not there yet. How long should it take for it to show up so I can make it a moderator an get the process moving forward? Thank you.

In the Databases section, how may I:
Delete all links simultaneously?

Edit or delete links individually?

Click open the link to the database in question.

To delete a row, click the checkboxes on the left side for any rows you want to get rid of. Scroll down and click the red "Delete Rows" button at the bottom of the page.

To delete the entire table, click on the "Edit Table Properties" button at the top of the page. Scroll down to the bottom of the resulting page and click "Delete Table."

My thanks to Groups.io for the impressive import of our Yahoo Group.? Not everything came through.? However, that was due to Yahoo-related corruptions.

I looked in vain to learn how to delete links from an imported Yahoo Group.? (My apologies if I looked for answers in the wrong places.)? The links appear in the Databases section of our new Groups.io home.

All our links are ancient.

In the Databases section, how may I:

1. Delete all links simultaneously?
   
   
2. Edit or delete links individually?
   
   

Thank you in advance for any insights.

Dear helpful team,

Sorry about adding to the pile of similar mails but I upgraded my Yahoo Group?evonline2002_webheads to premium over a week ago, on Oct 31. I entered that group name into the step 2 field and as instructed "Click the big green "Start Group Transfer Process" button at the bottom of the page"

Vance -- It seems we've had a miscommunication.

Did you provide a destination group? You have to type in your Yahoo Group in the top box and also select your destination group from the pull-down menu immediately below it. At that point you should be able to click on the green "Start Group Transfer Process" button without getting an error message of some kind.

I then began step 3 and all is NOT well, as there is no indication that a transfer has begin, and as it says in 3.2?If it?doesn't?say that, the invitation did not go through.?Go back to Step 3.1 above and try again.??

I did that many times in the first couple of days in Nov and then was instructed in a reply to my post at the time to NOT do that. So I tried step 4.2BE EVEN MORE PATIENT. and now 9 days have passed...?

Based on your?post of November 2, I thought you were at Step 4.?

...and this is what I see at the bottom of my?/yahootransfer?

View Existing Transfer Status: (followed by nothing - no transfers are listed)

This suggests you have no transfers in process.?No wonder your invitation hasn't been accepted.

Holder of the crown in this group since Nov 24, 2001

I hope that's a blue crown. If it's green, you're a Moderator, not an Owner.

Please re-read the detailed instructions at?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/22617?and resume from Step 2.1. Once a transfer is actually underway, you should be able to monitor progress using the status instructions at?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/19948

Hope this helps,
Bruce

3.1 Go to your YAHOO GROUP (not your groups.io group) and log in. Send a membership invitation to "[email protected]". If you've never done this before, instructions can be found at??
3.2 Return to the bookmarked page?(/yahootransfer) once again. Select the group you are transferring from the Existing Transfers at bottom right (click on its link). A new page will come up, with?a status box at the top. If all is well, it?should?say: "We've received the invite to your group and will accept it soon. There is no need to send another invite."?If it?doesn't?say that, the invitation did not go through. Go back to Step 3.1 above and try again.??
(You have now completed Step 3 of the instructions)

4.1 BE PATIENT. Accepting the invitation is often?the longest step in the process, and requires human intervention (solving a CAPTCHA).?
4.2 BE EVEN MORE PATIENT.?Do?not?send additional invitations in an attempt to hurry things up.
4.3 You will eventually?receive an email from groups.io stating?that the Yahoo group invitation has been accepted, and providing you with further instructions.?Continue waiting until you receive this email.
(You have now completed Step 4 of the instructions)

I've noticed that the message thread (with or without attachment) isn't included with a reply when single messages are delivered.

The format of that depends on what the person replying included.? Online, no previous topic information is included unless added by the person replying.? If everything is done via email, individual emails will contain whatever the email client includes.? The one version that removes quotes is the digest.? The summary is just that, a summary with no details.? More info at /static/help#subscription-options

I've noticed that the message thread (with or without attachment) isn't included with a reply when single messages are delivered.

From a member's comment below, it appears that's also the case when a Daily Summary is delivered. So is the only way to see the entire thread is to click on view/reply online and scroll through all messages in the thread?

Member's message: "I can't see the original message with the attachment.? I have set it up to receive the daily summary but the original message is not on the daily summary. I am not sure what I am doing wrong."?

In a premium group, it is possible to direct add members by cutting and pasting their email address.
However, there seems to be no provision for adding a screen name or Moderation status, etc to the invitation.

You can add a screen/display name if you use the second format listed in the Emails block, to wit:? "Screen Name <email @ address.com>"

Does this mean that the Moderation status becomes the group default, or can it be imported?

It's the group default.

=====================

Hi, I am wondering if and how your staged transfer process worked? ?I am considering similar issues (want to transfer YahooGroup archive of messages before it's too late..., but do not want to invite my YahooGroup members to Groups.io until later, since I just precipitously moved the membership to GoogleGroups). ?So was there a successful way to move the archive and the list of members, but not to welcome the members, not to activate the io group until a later time, perhaps in a month or two? ?And at that later time, would I be able to send the welcome easily?

I hope that all makes sense, and welcome any suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
? Lisa

but is there a way for me to get an email of any replies to topics I would like to follow? ?(I don't see a 'follow' button..)

Related, is there a way to look on the web interface at topics I am following?

Well, not quite. But there is a "follow" but doesn't work for group when your subscription is to receive all emails.

Go to /yahootransfer and check the lower right corner, then report back.

This style using the stylish program is excellent, adds a nice touch of color to groups.io...

The problem is that I have received no email saying??the transfer agent has joined my group, flaxseedoil2, and I should promote him to a moderator. ? I also cannot check on the progress of my transfer on the page that is supposed to have a button for checking that.?

Francis, You seem to have misunderstood my problem. I did all the steps Including sending an invitation from the group we own FlaxSeedOil2 to [email protected]?I did that, but I have not received an email saying to promote the transfer agent so my files, members, etc are transferred. Also, I cannot check on where my group is in the queue on the page you linked in your last message to me. My flaxseedoil2 is already set up on Groups.io but nothing has been transferred. I paid the yearly fee of $220 on Oct 29 and got an email saying my group was approved. I invited the transferred agent to join Flaxseedoil2. I am the owner of that group. The problem is that I have received no email saying??the transfer agent has joined my group, flaxseedoil2, and I should promote him to a moderator. ? I also cannot check on the progress of my transfer on the page that is supposed to have a button for checking that.?

You wrote: "So you started the transfer but you are stymied by having to invite the email address?[email protected]?to your Yahoo Group.
NO, I'm not "stymied by having to send an invite, I've already done that. The problem is that I have not received any email response from groups.io. ?Why is that? ?Sandra Olson?

I think?the answer to this is "no", but in case I missed something...

Our group is one of the ones being made homeless by Yahoo, and we're in the transfer queue right now. Making the most of the opportunity we've been looking to see if there are things we can make use of in GIO that simply weren't there in Y! which should be a benefit to members (of course there are!).

The one that jumped out immediately is the subgroup. The membership is essentially a peer group, so we wouldn't use subgroups to segregate members as such, but rather to coarsely categorise content. Although having now established that you can't move topics between groups - a shame - it would only be a bare handful of subgroups, we'd probably use hashtags for the finer categorisation. All members would be entitled/encouraged to be in all subgroups with the possible exception of a moderators subgroup. So, the point of the question:

Can I have a new member automatically subscribed to a sub group (or groups) without me or another moderator having to direct add, or inviting the member? Not a deal breaker especially, but it would be nice to take one more manual step out of the admin process or the user's process. The subgroups of course would be set unrestricted so minimum hurdles to jump, but even so...

Thanks in advance!

Derek
