Re: time on calendar and reminder

Bottom line is you need to update your personal account preferences; and if everyone in your group is going to be in the same time zone, you should probably update your Default Sub Settings, too (/g/GROUPNAME/defaultsubsettings).

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýYou're trying to add the transfer agent to the wrong group. You need toinvite [email protected] to your -Yahoo- group.

Re: Second group to move
On Thu, Nov 14, 2019 at 10:42 AM, Eric Johnson wrote:
However, the Easy Yahoo Group Transfer seems to indicate that another fee of $220 would need to be paid for the first year.Eric -- Subgroups do not have a payment plan. If your primary group is *already* on Premium Yearly, there is no additional fee to transfer content into a subgroup. If it's not, you would indeed have to upgrade the primary group in order to use Easy Group Transfer to migrate this subgroup. Failing that, you will have to do the migration manually...meaning that your goal of having these messages actually present, properly attributed and indexed, in the subgroup message archive will not be achieved. Hope this helps, Bruce |

Re: Owner view vs Member view

I think it would be a nice feature if there were to be a badge in the header, or some other indication on each screen as to whether or not it was only for Owners, or Moderators eyes or was capable of being viewed by regular Members. This would help me in giving instructions to members to know what they see on their screen. ??Anybody else think so?Yes, I find this is a good idea. After all, a big part of a moderator's task is explaining to members what to do and how to do it. An alternative option would be to have a link near the top of the page saying "force member view" or "force non-member view" which, when clicked, reloads the page as if you are a member or a non-member instead of a moderator or owner. As you may be aware, suggestions for improvements such as this one should be posted to the beta list, and the beta list is temporarily closed until the end of the year, but please don't forget to post this idea to the beta list in the new year.

UPDATE on our MOVE to GIO: It's COMPLETE!
#transfer
Just a note of encouragement to any of you
who are still waiting in the Transfer Queue... We began our transfer shortly after we had received the Tranfer Agent email and promoted it to Moderator. We were 762nd in the waiting queue on Nov 9th when we started the transfer. Today, five days later on Nov 14th, we got a confirming email notice that our transfer was complete, Hurrah! But mostly, a BIG THANKS! ¨Cto the feverishly working GIO TECH TEAM. We appreciate your hard work! So, to those waiting in queue, just be patient. And to those of you getting ready to start the process: Do it asap! You will need to be in the queue, waiting, SOON, by no later than Dec 1st I believe! Time's a-wastin'! Cheers! Paul M.

Re: Question: removing a member for spam?
Duane wrote: It wasn't the email provider that unsubscribed them, it was GIO.? The providers return spam reports to GIO and it's up to them what to do.? GIO has decided that to preserve the reputation of the site, they'll unsubscribe those people.? All services should be doing this.? I believe the latest "rules" for email say that not honoring this and continuing to send emails is grounds for blacklisting the entire site/service.? In the early days, GIO was blacklisted by several services until Mark got everything straightened out and developed the unsubscribe system. D That's happened to me? two or three times. There is so much activity due to the Yahoo shutdown that even though I've not marked anything as Spam my provider (one of the AT&T domains managed by Yahoo) starts sending spam notices to GIO. GIO unsubscribes me and sends an email with a notice. I click the link and am instantly resubscribed. The question, however, is what triggered AT&T/Yahoo to send the notice to GIO. It wasn't me. It was either some algorithm or (my guess) some ignorant user that was marking everything as spam instead of simply clicking unsubscribe. This misguided action dates back to the 1990s when email spam became a problem. The conventional wisdom then was "Never click an Unsubscribe link. It just lets the spammers know they've hit a valid email address and you will get more spam." This doesn't take into account the side effects of newer anti-spam messages like the ones we're discussing. Sadly, mass user re-education is impossible. Larry |

Re: Reading Digests on iPhones
I did a test last night to see and I believe it is because your member has her iPhone set for very large font.? I have my text set to zoomed and then largish font size. ?In current iOS ?Display and brightness ?Text size ? if I increase the font size too much with the slider in admin I get that scrunched look.? I tested it with full featured digest.? Attached are 3 photos. The first is the digest.?

I would like to remove visibility of our old archive from yahoo groups...Lisa -- There is no way to "hide" the message archive, but... ...OR move it entirely to a subgroup. Is this possible?Yes. If you make a new primary group and upgrade it to Premium Yearly, you can use the Easy Group Transfer method to subsequently move your existing Yahoo Group into a subgroup of that primary group for archival purposes. Detailed instructions at?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups, see also?/g/GroupManagersForum/message/22617. Be very careful to select the SUBgroup when you initiate the transfer. There is no good way to move that content later, and some people have reported accidentally directing two or more transfer requests into the same destination and ending up with a mess. Bruce |

Re: Separate Accounts (NOT Groups) on Same Home Page?

Try opening an entirely separate browser instance and see if that works better. In Chrome, I've found that I'm able to have two separate GIO accounts open at the same time if the second instance is opened in incognito mode...without resorting to any fancy add-ons. You might be able to do the same by opening a Private window in Firefox. Bruce |
