I do not get the e-mail from one person when he posts to the free Group.
I had the Setting set to get messages from subscribers only.
(second one on the list)
The person must be a subscriber since he has been a Group member even when it
was a Yahoo Group .
My not getting his messages via e-mail started several months ago.
His messages do appear in the Messages in the proper Topic.
I only notice the problem because he has had to be Moderated several times in the past.
Can non-subscribers post messages? I did not think so.

I have now changed the Setting to get All e-mails.
I will not know if that is the solution until the person posts again.
I have all notification boxes checked.

Thanks,
Richard

Hey, it does! See example at?/g/ias-indy?

I won't leave it that way for long, just a couple days so people can see it.

I was unable to get it to work within a message - it was stripped.? I suspect at least one of the possible reasons is that only the owner/moderator can change the group description, whereas anyone could put the code in a message.

I know some people get other people's groups, when the owners are deceased or have no time to take care of their groups? I do not know how to do that.

Neither do I.

?I only wish to find and re-activate my own old groups. Is there a way to locate my old groups?

I have seen no reports of anyone re-activating a deleted group in groups.io. The group deletion dialog warns of this and forces you to type "I understand" before actually deleting. Are you sure we aren't talking about a Yahoo Group?

If this is possible to do, could you please direct me?to the right direction?

If you've already contacted [email protected],?I think that's the best you can do. Be advised that he's .

This suggests that, as a Moderator, you don't have the "Modify Group Settings" permission.?Have the Owner give you this permission and you should be able to access the Settings pages. Otherwise he will have to make the necessary changes himself.

As noted, you can petition to have these restrictions removed my means of a post in beta. I wouldn't expect the notion to get much traction, however, as several of these constructs can be misused as a vector for phishing and malware.

If you think that's generally desirable, why not suggest the editor change in the beta group?

If you are unsatisfied wiith the calendar functionality, you will have to post a feature request on Beta group. Mark monitors that. No one here is an employee- just members helping members.?

I guess you looked at the pages about calendars in the GMF wiki.?

Have you checked to see if the only person's messages you receive is: Either one would be received by you but not sent to others except Moderators unless appropriate box checked by the sender.
Also, the message would not show up in your archive in the above cases.

Also, when you reply to those singular messages do you use the reply button on the message or reply at the group or how do you reply.

Some or none of this may help diagnose the issue.

Yes, they count against storage, /static/help#what-is-counted-towards-the-storage-limits-for-my-group? Some people have found that the storage limit mechanism isn't accurate right now and are taking advantage of attachments to gain extra storage.? Mark has said that it will be enforced 'soon', so there may be a lot of attachments deleted when that happens.

Someone in one of my groups asked about whether embedded pictures
count toward the group storage limit?

I can't see how they wouldn't but thought I'd ask. My understanding is
that whether it's a separate attachment or embedded in the message
it's still an attachment.

The question came up because I have the group set to resize photos to
either the lowest or next to lowest resolution setting to save on our
group storage space. The resizing mechanism on GIO does a poor job of
resizing and high res pics come out looking blurry. Smaller, low res
pics come through just fine.

I explained that if picture attachments fill up our storage space, we
can't upload new files until some housecleaning is done, and that
older pics will be automatically deleted to make room for new ones
once the limit is reached.

So, am I correct that an embedded photo is still like an attachment in
that it counts toward storage limits for the group?

When using Direct Add for new subscribers, is there a way to set the default to Full Featured Digest rather than No Email?

We get posts from non-subscribers, and Direct Add them when the post is approved. However, they show in the member list as No Email.?

I would like to change this so they are added with Full-Featured Digest, so we do not need to remember to append that at the end of each email address.

In Admin, Settings, the second button is default subscription. The group subscriber can change it later if they wish but that will be the starting point ?

I've always been confused about subscribers versus members.

Technically, a member is someone that has a GIO account, a subscriber is someone that has joined a group.? We sometimes use them interchangeably, using member as a 'shortcut' for group member, but probably shouldn't unless surrounding information makes the intent perfectly clear.

The words are indeed used interchangeably. Their meaning (in the context of Groups.io) is the same.

Chris

I have had the same problem, not receiving all messages sent, but only from one "member", AFIK.
I am the Owner.
I had my messages and e-mail (a Yahoo provider) settings as Mr. McMurtry showed, except that I had set the short list to messages sent by subscribers. The one member in question has been part of the Group for many years. I now have my Setting set to receive ALL messages but only time will tell if I now get.his messages when he posts something.

But it brings up the question of what is a subscriber versus not a subscriber. If only subscribers can post he must be
a subscriber. Curious also is that my missing his e-mails only started 6-8 months ago, and I do not recall changing my settings.
I've always been confused about subscribers versus members.

There may be several questions here.

We subscribed to Groupsio on Oct 29 2919 and paid the Premium fee for transfer from Yahoo Groups.

Peter -- As Duane said, the Easy Group Transfer was a multi-step process. Simply paying the fee and initiating it doesn't get it done.

Anyway, that's all moot...Yahoo Groups has taken down all online content and that approach is no longer available. You will have to do it manually using the instructions already provided. As for your payment, send an email to [email protected]?to ask for a refund. Having already had nearly two months of Premium access your refund will probably be pro-rated.

Bruce

I have an idea how to solve this once and for all.? Why don't you join his group, have him make you owner, and go through all the settings and admin and other places to see what's going on?? GIO can be complicated.? You can figure it out.
