Yes, it does.? The email address is the account.? A person can use the site/group without setting a password by entering their email address on the Log In page and selecting the option to "Email me a link" which will log them in when they click on the link.? If they don't clear cookies on that device, they'll have access for 30 days.? This can be repeated as often as you like.

Re: Direct Add with "Special Notice" email option

 

When members are Direct Added, they will get a notification to that effect.? I believe they also get one if they are transferred,? If you want, you can also set up a Welcome Notice that would go to all of them.

Re: Are Transferred Members actually utilizing new Groups.io

 

A transfer does not create an account on the site. It subscribes them to the group only.? They need to create an account on the site and use the subscribed email address to access the web permissions for the group.

From what I see, only the activity log would show a web action, but not log in and out status.


Re: Resizing photos

Is there a way to bulk resize all existing pictures in the photos section?

Not at this time. It is an often-requested feature.

?

Optionally, what is the recommended resize value for new photos?

I find 1024px in the long dimension to be more than adequate for viewing online. Your mileage may vary, depending on whether your group is graphics-heavy, and whether some members are fond of lossless formats (TIF, BMP, etc).

I am just trying to take some precautions so that things do not come out of control later.

I suggest also setting up your group to delete old email attachments if you run out of space. See Admin->Settings->Message Formatting->Out of Space.

Hope this helps,

You have to set it up. See?/static/help#membernotices?.

The welcome message can be deactivated on the transfer page.

If they were transferred from Yahoo, their accounts are already activated.

How can the owner tell if the members have actually moved to Groups.io
Go to Admin->Members. They are all listed there.

Hope this helps,

Couldn¡¯t you just send a msg to the group asking the members to check in?

I recently transferred a Yahoo group. I'm still working through navigating the new Groups.io group.
Generally, the transfer was fast and went well.
But I have a question.
Is there a way to tell which transferred members are actually signing in or activating their Groups.io membership.
How can the owner tell if the members have actually moved to Groups.io


Re: View / Change Plan Tab Missing

Re: Files won't load

 

What does this say in your group's Admin -> Settings page?


Are you referring to the Files menu item on the left nav bar or the Upload File button on the Files page?
Were you logged in as Owner, Moderator, or Subscriber when viewing the site?
Thanks
Toby


Re: Moderated Topic Still Posted Without Approval

 

set a topic to moderated. I now have several replies that have been posted. I don't understand why they have been posted after setting the topic to Moderated. I approved one message.

On the website for your group under messages a topic that has been moderated has a small symbol at the beginning of that topic. Any change in the topic heading, even leaving out an ! Makes it a new topic.
Hope this helps

It may be that I don't understand and by approving the one message, I somehow removed the Moderation.

If anyone has used this and can explain, please do so.

Direct Add with "Special Notice" email option

 

I'm about to do a direct add of several hundred?members to a new group transferring from Yahoo. ?Several of them have "Special notice" selected as their email option. ?In the direct add instructions (at the bottom of the direct add page) Special notice is not noted as an option to append to the entry. ?Is that an option, and if so what is the format?

Would it be "John Doe <JohnDoe@...> special"? ?And I assume that if that is in a CSV file the entire line is in the?same cell in column 1?

Thanks for your help.

Peace,
Tom

RE:? ? I suggest you allow the transfer agent to move them and simply delete them afterward. In GIO, the member list can be sorted by the message delivery? ? ? ?option and a bulk deletion is very straightforward...just click the checkbox next to each one and select "Remove" from the Action menu.

Only issue is all those email addresses will get all the "welcome to the group" etc emails, which may be confusing and/or irritating, depending on why they left the original YG group. Which may or may not be a problem, just something to consider.
Btw, does a member get an email upon being deleted? Or is that something optional to set up?

Re: #howlong Answer from Support #howlong

 

?I've seen the topic touched on Group Managers before, and the advice was to go to Support. That sounds ineffective. I'll look for group managers to ask directly.

Thank you for the answers!
