Re: Search Results
Hashtags work fine in private groups, but only members can see the messages, as intended.

Re: Yahoo Groups Transfer Timeframe
Thanks all for the information!? Very helpful.
Given the (now understandable) delay and the issues our group is having communicating on the Yahoo Group, I went ahead and sent out invitations to the new Groups.io group. ? If I understand correctly based on reading elsewhere in this forum, when the Yahoo Group transfer finally happens, it shouldn't impact those already signed up at Groups.io.? Am I correct? Thanks, - Pete |

Is there access to the initial email text (the one that starts "Thank you for your interest")?so it can be changed to meet who we use the system?Yes. Go to Admin->Settings and click on the "Member Notices" button at the top of the page. Create a new notice of type "Pending Subscription" and make it active. This message will now be sent instead of the canned version that groups.io uses by default. See also?/static/help#membernotices Hope this helps, Bruce |

Re: Mail Delivery Issue w/ Comcast/Outlook

how can I edit messages?
We have two groups and in one this is the header at the top of a message:

The settings appear to be the same in both groups and my privileges are also the same in both.? One group allows me to edit the messages and the other doesn't.? What am I missing?

Re: Hashtags
I don't let subscribers create hashtags lest things get out of control. They way I see it, flagging everything as important is the same as flagging nothing as important, only noisier.Many of my members feel the same way and have asked me not to tell anyone about them.

Thank you, I¡¯ve made the changes. So much to learn in groups io, but all of it is better than before!
