It's me again - We have 10 groups, I'm a moderator in all of them and the settings appear to be the same in each group; however, there are only two groups in which I can edit topics.? Shal, you mentioned that i might be lacking the "edit archives" privilege but I don't know where to find that?

I too posted the same message and then noticed there is already an ongoing poll and discussion on this topic. So I deleted my post.?

A member was unsubscribed "reported a message as spam and was removed via email", this member has a?sbcglobal.net address, did not want to leave and has re-joined and is asking for advice.

How can I advise members about what they could do that this does not happen.??
How much is it a problem?
Thinking whether I need to send a regular post through my groups to alert them to the fact that they might get unsubscribed through no fault of their own and what they should do.

Marina, last I heard there were over 400 groups awaiting transfer. Please try to be patient, they'll get to you as soon as they can.

All of these people waiting make me glad I moved all of my groups about a year ago.

Tired, Retired, Old, & Grouchy! Yay, TROGs!!!!

I recently moved two large groups. It took about 2 weeks from me sending the invitation to join to receiving the request to be made a moderator from transfer@. After I did that, the transfer took 24-48 hours. I was able to follow each step on the easy transfer pages, and just had to be patient ;)

Regards,
Bruce

On the Settings page, scroll down to the Features section, then find the Photos area.? Make sure Permissions is set to "Subscribers can view and upload".? I suspect you have it set to "Subscribers can view, moderators can upload".

We checked the URL and it wasn't right so I had him do a virus scan and check for any new programs installed he might not know about. Observe thread please :

/g/TestgearNotTekScopes/topic/option_to_add_photos/20766285?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2Fsticky,,,20,2,0,20766285

What could be the problem ? I am not knowledgeable about this type of software so I don't know if the guy's PC has some bug in it or if I set the settings wrong. They are mostly at default. I tried to allow as much as possible, except for embedding images in posts. There has been some discussion of that and I am not sure I want to do it. If it fixes the problem I might though, I want that ability on the group. I mean I want the gallery, and I have told people to try to name it right. But he doesn't get the button at all, and has the URL the button sends him to. Another member has also reported this in that thread. I never saw that URL.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

?Not just any email, specifically an invitation to join your Yahoo group.

I've successfully sent to transfer@ an invitation to join my YG group (it shows in the group Activity log).
Any idea of how long does it take for transfer@ to accept the invitation? With the other group I moved over here it was a matter of a couple of days. But I know there's a pretty long queue at the moment. Just wondering when I should start to worry.
Thanks,
Marina

I can image this would be quite disconcerting!

Like Toby, I have all such integrations on Moderation. You might want to consider doing the same.

Beyond that, I doubt anyone here is familiar with the API being used to access Facebook content. That being so, the only one that can help sort this out is support.

Good luck,
Bruce

I think the problem originates in Step 2. I don’t see how to log into my Yahoo group to send an email from it. I can send an email from my login but not Yahoo’s. I’ll go back to the Yahoo web and look it over again but …?

After clicking on the Add Photos button, click Browse to look for them on your computer, then select all that you want to upload to that album before clicking the Open button in the window where you browse for them.? You can use Shift if they're contiguous or Ctrl to select specific files (in Windows).

Hi, is there a way to upload multiple photos at one time?? ( to a photo album)

Thanks in advance,

Febe Giaquinto

I'm not sure, some of them definitely predated our setting up an account in Groups.io so it does seem like a hiccup. And correct they are not spam per se, but members (and myself) were confused by the sudden dump.

Are you following the steps at /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups, including the details found at /g/GroupManagersForum/message/8697?? There are a couple of places where you'll receive an email telling you to continue the process.

When we were looking to move from Yahoo to IO we decided to use ONLY subgroups for actual messages and conversations and us the main group only to hold the member accounts as required to have a subgroup.? Our reasoning was that in Yahoo we had? people in group A who were not in B,? in B and A but not C,? In C & B but not A, etc.? In other words there was no single group that had everyone.? So, when we set up IO, we created the MAIN group with settings that would not permit postings, adding files, adding images, etc.? In other words the only thing one could do was join or leave the group.? Then we use as subgroup for all the things we really need.? ?In our case, we are using all private groups (and subgroups) and only use Direct Add as the means for getting people into groups (no invites, no "request to join") so having to add manage the member in MAIN as well as the subgroups they need to be in was not a big deal for us.? I'm not sure how this idea would work open groups.

How can I tell if my transfer worked? The "Easy Yahoo Group Transfer" page just refreshes every time I click on 'Start Group Transfer Process'. Did it work? Did it fail? I didn't get an email about it, in short as far as I can tell nothing happened. What did I do wrong?

I'm in exactly the same boat as you! But after 7 days my 2 Yahoo groups got put into the "transfer in progress" category (whew!) and I got [email protected]?to be a member of those 2 Yahoo groups and then I made it a moderator. Now its been another 7 days and the transfer has not happened yet and I'm biting my nails because overall its been a month since I started alerting our 2 Yahoo groups that I was going to move us outta Yahoogroups and we're in a bit of a limbo and I'm doing a dance begging members to be patient. I can't jump right to the paid membership until Groups.io proves its worth.

...JT

Do you mean that a message from groups.io to your AOL address bounced?? Or that you were removed from a group?? AOL addresses quite regularly have problems with both.? If you were removed, check the activity log to see if was for "marked message as spam."? If so, take a look at /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Removed-for-spam
