Yesterday I received an email saying a person had joined my group. My settings are so that I must approve new members. I did not get the opportunity.. the message said the person had already joined.

I would request a download from Yahoo Groups - if it is possible. And perhaps check out other strategies for downloading like PG Offline. And then I would wait awhile. Get my group all ready for the import if YG becomes accessible again. I know that Yahoo Mail was down for part of a day on Monday or Tuesday. (I use Y mail to get web access to a Rogers email account.) But then was up and fine.?So... fingers crossed! From the FAQ in the wiki about transferring: (b) Moving message archive, photos, etc. yourself:
?
You can download content from Yahoo - see /g/GroupManagersForum/message/19430?
?
There are a few third-party solutions to do that, including PG OFFLINE, and a Chrome browser plugin
?
The problem is what to do with the message archive once downloaded; as there is really no good way to re-upload it to groups.io, to re-link individual messages to their owners, or to provide online message search capability. ?It's not the same as a transfer and loses "ownership", but Lena has a way to get the messages into the archive, /g/GroupManagersForum/message/22251?
?
An option is simply to print the collection of old messages to a PDF file; at which point you can upload that to the files area of your group. That will give you something, even if it isn't conveniently indexed and searchable.

Would you suggest manually adding them directly? I noticed "special notice" is not working either. Dakotta On Sat, Nov 23, 2019 at 7:38 PM Frances <frances@...> wrote: On Sat, Nov 23, 2019 at 01:33 PM, Dakotta Alex wrote:  |
