I believe it's a common courtesy approach.? If someone isn't willing to share their profile, they aren't allowed to see others.

Hi
I can¡¯t parse out the problem, but you might check out the wiki which talks about directory vs members¡¯ list. /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Directory-and-Members-List Frances |

The boxed message will not appear in your group(s). It's on the transfer status page.If you haven't logged in, do so (see?/static/help#password) Go to the transfer page at??/yahootransfer Scroll down to the very bottom. Look for the "in-process" box at lower right and click in it. A list of groups being transferred should appear. Select one of your groups. At the top of the resulting page, look for the boxed message that I mentioned earlier. If you see the message, all you can do is wait.

There have also been some that became active in the group again because of the increased reliability.

Re: Help with my transfers over needed please.
Bonnie,
I think Hooty doesn't realize that changing the subject line on a reply starts a new thread/topic and can be confusing as you mentioned.? I'd suggest that the addition become the first line in the reply, not on the subject line.? In an effort to consolidate this topic, I've merged the threads.

Re: GROUP SETTINGS OPTION ¨C Automatic Post Removal After a Period of Time . . .
Yes, the beta group is the official suggestion box for the site.? I'm not sure how 'easy' it would be to do, but you might suggest that the options be done somewhat like the calendar events.? Those can be set to week/month/etc, then there's an option to select how many of those units.

Re: GROUP SETTINGS OPTION ¨C Automatic Post Removal After a Period of Time . . .
Duane,
Thanx... Your answers are always helpful and much appreciated. So . . . I just went and looked at the 'create hashtag' option over on our G.IO site and see all the time/duration options. That's a nice timesaver for our moderators. But it would be nice to see a two month option for the duration of posts. We feel that is a sensible amount of time for a member's ad wanting to sell or their house or their car, etc. to remain up. After that time it's most likely either sold (or not), rented (or no interest), or just plain stale, as ads go. And two months seems a more reasonable amount of time for a free ad with an exposure to so many members to remain in place before removal. And especially so for a large-ticket item like a member's house, car, or property. BTW, a Classified area could be useful for many groups but we eventually found a real need to restrict what had become an overwhelming number of commercial ads but we chose to continue to allow personal ads by our members. This seems to have work quite well for us. So, who would I make a suggestion to for a two-month option? To Beta? Or . . . ? Paul M. CRL Owner/Moderator == |

I'm not sure what you mean - will I be the OP in the archives/files etc., instead of the actual sender?The transfer agent normally moves the subscribers first. Then as each file/photo is moved, its ownership is compared to the people found in the GIO group's member's list. If no corresponding subscriber is found, ownership defaults to the group owner (you). This does not apply to the message archive. What this means for you:? If you want photo and file ownership to be retained in the transfer, you either have to let the transfer agent move them, or find some way to subscribe all the "active" subscribers to the GIO group ahead of time, using the same email addresses they are currently using in the Yahoo group.? My original advice (to just let the agent move everybody and remove the inactive people afterward) stands. I really think you'll have less of a mess to clean up that way.

Re: Transfer only messages & files
Hi Bruce,
Thank you for your reply as well - I realise that would be quicker and easier, but I'd really much rather let sleeping dogs lie ;)
Kind regards,
