Actually you can use your own domain on the enterprise plan. Ask her/him if they would like to pay for it. ;)

Nope. Not possible here except for the Group Guidelines (and that's not really a file). You have to use the calendar here for monthly sends.

Re: photo albums

 

jackiep,

sorry dont know what that is and clicked on it and still no help

That's the official Groups.io TO-DO list. It isn't exactly helpful except to let us know what features might be chosen for development. So in this case it offers the hope that you'll be able to move photos between albums sometime in the unspecified future.

Three weeks ago it was four days.? Right now for my second YG list it has been 6 days since [email protected] was invited; [email protected] was made a moderator with? 30 minutes of accepting the invitation and now we are waiting in the queue.? If there are YG database issues or a temporary halt like several days ago it can be a week ago.? The number of requests has increased dramatically in the last three weeks.? AS a result formerly quick and easy things like the YG invite to [email protected] was just a few minutes to acceptance but this week has increased to five days or more for some.

Best advice is to get in queue now.? Just three weeks ago moving a group seemed iffy; it's gotten worse lately.

Re: files

 

Fannces,

I thought you could send a notice on a set date.

Not the Member Notices (except the special case of monthly for the Guidelines). But you can use a calendar event to get the same effect (if not the same appearance).

I added it to the wiki but of course, J, please edit if I am wrong!
Or add the new bit about using the calendar.

"It has always seemed strange to me," said Doc. "The things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and self-interest are the traits of success."? Steinbeck - Cannery Row

Re: Who uploaded a file?

J_Catlady
 

Oh, I see what you mean. I'm guessing that's because the person who uploaded it has a blank display name. You can check their member page and see if it is.

I am pleased to report there is a search box on the wiki. The main search doesn't retrieve items from the wiki, but on the right side of the page, there is a search box just for the wiki. Hurrah!

It would be nice if that were labelled as "search wiki" rather than just "search".

Re: Length of time to transfer group

Dave,

?

For my group, it took maybe three days before I was told the transfer was done, but I¡¯ve heard it can take longer. I think a lot depends on how many groups are trying to transfer, as there are only so many that can be done in a day. Patience, it will happen.

Re: files

The member notices documentation is now up on the site and available under a new "Help" tab at the top of every page. Check it out. Only one notice can go out every month, and that's the Group Guidelines. You can't schedule files to be sent monthly, as you could in yahoo.

Not true.? Nothing automatically becomes public domain for many years.? In the US, it's originator's life plus 70 years, up to a 120 year maximum.? Anyone can release their copyright to the public domain, but it's not automatic.? IANAL
