Re: Uploading a file to a folder
Thanks, Bruce.?
I don't see this mentioned in the Help. Perhaps a small addition is needed. /helpcenter/membersmanual/1/working-with-files Frances -- Help available from Groups.io help and GMF wiki. ? |

Re: Can't pin this down on RSS Integrations
Actually, just so I leave this topic clear, turns out after all was said and done the core problem was I had a cache plugin that lazy loaded RSS images - and that made for Broken Images in groups.io I excluded the "wp-post-image" class in the cache plugin,?and was then able to remove the small aforementioned addon. |
Re: Uploading a file to a folder
The file is not large, less that 500kb and in pdf format. And the group is a premium group.
We are nowhere near the maximum file space allocated for files, using 3% of the space. It seems that some members are not seeing the New/Upload button, while the others don't have a problem. Members have permission create folders and view and upload files. It's a puzzle! Margaret |

Thanks - tried that and nothing seems to have changed. Also another member has reported a similar experience - not being able to upload different file to a different folder ... So you have space, your settings allow it, and you have gone to the folder and clicked update.

A couple of members are wanting to upload a files to a folder - a job that they have done before to the same folder - but the New/Upload link is not showing. I don't have the same problem. Any idea as to why this might be happening.Check that no one has disallowed it. Go to Admin, Settings. Scroll down to Features. Go to Files and check permissions. You might double-check to see how much space you are taking - Go to Admin, Upgrade. In Current Plan, you can see your group use. Frances ? -- Help available from Groups.io help and GMF wiki. ? |

If not, can I transfer the messages (only 17) from the subgroup to the main group archive?Chris -- I suggest you do the following: 1. Export the subgroup using the instructions found at?/helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/exporting-or-downloading-your-group-s-data/exporting-your-group-s-message-archive-and? 2. In the resulting zip file, locate the file with the .mbox extension. This is the one that contains the messages. 3. Extract this file to the location of your choice 4. Open it as a folder with a suitable email client (Windows 10 Mail and Apple Mail have both been reported to work) 5. Print the folder contents to a PDF 6. Store the PDF in the Files area of your main group. ? The above is pretty much what I did to archive old content from Yahoo Groups (before it went defunct).

If the subgroup has had so little activity, maybe it's not worth bothering. Assuming you do want to keep them, you could open two browser tabs, and copy and paste from one tab open to the subgroup's messages, and post new messages into the main group. Before you do this, give some consideration to how the messages will be presented. You can't make them post earlier than the day you're re-posting them, so as Duane mentioned, they will be out of order as far as time sequence. Next, consider that you will be shown as the poster of each message, not the original poster. You can make it clear who was the OP by modifying the subject line with the sender's name, or adding information at the top of each of those 17 messages, followed by your pasting of the original messages. Do this 17 times and you've moved the messages to the main group, then delete the subgroup. Or just lock the subgroup. (The idea here is if you don't like how things turned out, you can delete the 17 moved messages and start over if you want to present the messages differently.) I have a few groups where I moved them from Yahoo Groups and all of the YG posts are in a subgroup that is an announce only group. I haven't locked them but I could have done that instead. (I wasn't aware of the locking operation until a recent discussion here.) You have the option here, if you want to do this, of merging a few messages together, or putting all 17 messages into one long message, if that is useful to you. I mention these things just to get your mind thinking about how things are going to look from other members' perspectives. You can delete your "moved" posts (re-posts) from the main group and start over, but if you delete the subgroup before you're sure you have things the way you want them, you can't go back and get them from the subgroup later.

A subgroup is separate from the main group as far as messages (and most other things) are concerned.? If it's a paid group, you could lock the subgroup so there's no more posting, but retain the messages.? You could resend those messages to the main group, but they wouldn't be sorted by the original time/date and/or sender.

Re: Move messages from main to subgroup
#subgroup
I am also in exactly this circumstance.? I had hoped to import my backed up messages intact into the new sub-group.? No such luck out of the box
