Did you look in Admin, Invite, Sent invitations?
Did you look at Admin, Activity?
Did you use the Invite procedure?? /helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/inviting-people-to-join-a-group If you did, did you tweak the invitation notice? You can personalize it by using formatting. Frances -- Help available from Groups.io help and GMF wiki. ? |

New to this manager group but not Groups.io: inviting members
I moderate two Group.io instances.
I invited two members today and have before. I don't think they understand there are two Groups.io instances they need to join. When I sent the invites to them, I noticed that only one invite was sent. I checked the member list, and neither of them is there. What might cause this?? Note that I'm asking here before moving on to Groups.io support email. Redirect me if this isn't the right location.? Thanks a lot. Regina |

Both Windows 11 and Adobe now recognize and process HEIC/HEIF files. The reason for adoption is that it's small, fast and accurate.? FireFox doesn't understand it, so if you use a URL to access HEIC/HEIF files, FF will ask you where to save it.? Also, while Adobe understands how to READ such files, it either won't or can't save in that format.? My wife's been an iPhone use for many years, but only when she got an iPhone 11s did her pictures begin to be stored as HEIC/HEIF. Re size, I have a JPG file that's about 9MB, while the image it was converted from is only 3MB.? To my eye they look identical.? Also, while JPG is a lossy format, that isn't true for HEIC/HEIF files. FireFox, Adobe and Windows 11 also understand the relatively new format used in WEBP files.? That's more protection than anything else, but now that Adobe can read and write them, that's mostly irrelevant. Metta, Ivan On Mon, Mar 4, 2024 at 3:10?PM Larry Finch <Finches@...> wrote:

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI wish I had ¡®the answer¡¯ for this anomaly. ?I do know what causes it. .heic photos are MAC Format.

Sorry I'm so late to the game but I'm finally getting around to migrating our old Yahoo group.? Is there any way to migrate the member list as well?If you owned the Yahoo group, there should be a memberlist.csv file in your export. I don't know if Lena's script will import it, though. The simplest thing to do is to open that file in some kind of spreadsheet program and cut-and-paste the email address column directly into the Direct Add screen.?

Or migrate the messages without having to validate membership?? I'm assuming that if someone deletes their profile, the messages remain so there must be a way.? Main thing is to get the messages over and let people join at their leisureDo you have a backup / download of the messages and member list? What format?
