Re: Pending Subscription

 

Yes you can. Go to the Pending Members list, check the box(es) next to the pending member(s), then scroll to the bottom and click on the "Actions" pulldown menu to select the "Resend Pending Membership Notice".

That's not specifically an IMAP feature, it is a Gmail feature.
It is described in one of the early RFCs. Early as in pre-2000.
I used to use it, but so many sites barfed (^1) on it, that I quit doing
so.(#2)
A couple of email clients also barf when sending this type of address.

GMail correctly handles it.
Groups.IO correctly handles it.

#1: Barfed as, they either completely rejected it, or else dropped
everything before the "+".

#2: GMail strips dots out of the addressee part of the email address, so
I started using a complex system of dots to track who was selling my
email address to spammers. Any email I receive that is dot free, is from
a spammer.

While looking at the view you describe above, I think you'll see a blue bar
above the display names of pending members saying "Pending Approval." Click
that and select "Members" from the dropdown list that will appear.

In the same way, you can go back and view "Pending" members by clicking that

OK; you find yourself looking at the "pending member"... A little above "Display Name" there is a blue tab called Pending Approval. Click on it and you will be presented with a drop - down list; the first option on a list of 4 is Members. Click on that and you will find your full membership list presented. Find the member you wish to edit and click anywhere within their entry "line", and this will take you to their membership details.

Edit as required, and don't forget to Save the change!

Re: Group Not Displayed in 'Your Groups' Menu

 

Problem solved. As was suggested, the missing group was a result of my using a different email address for that group. I discovered that by logging out of my Groups.io account and then trying to log back in with another email address, an AOL account that I had not used in many years. I thought I had changed my primary email address in all my Yahoo Groups but apparently I missed Group 8.? When I tried logging in to Groups.io with the AOL address that opened an account that consisted of Group 8 only, apparently created when Group 8 was migrated from Yahoo to Groups.io. When I discovered I was logged in to Group 8 with the old AOL account I tried to change it to my current Gmail account. That produced a message that my Gmail account was already being used; would I like to "merge" the two accounts, with the Gmail account being the surviving account? I clicked yes and was emailed a link to allow me to do that.?

Now ALL my Group.io memberships appear on the My Groups menu.

Btw, just as information, I have not participated in Group 8 (i.e. sending a message) in about fifteen years. Group 8 is a regional history discussion group and about fifteen years ago there was a very troubling incident. It began with a discussion about a non-profit group some of us belonged to. This was an incorporated group, that required dues, and that held meetings, an annual convention and published a quarterly newsletter. Someone wondered why the newsletter never included a financial statement as did other groups he belonged to. One of the members then angrily wrote it was not necessary and he resented the implication that there was some financial mismanagement. The original poster said he wasn't implying anything. A third member chimed in that he was a CPA and wrote it was a mistake for groups not to publish a financial statement at least once a year. He said it's not fair to the people handling the revenue, either. People can have financial problems and if they have access to funds with no checks and balances it can be very tempting. He said he had been involved in cases like that and, while he was in no way suggesting anything like that was going on with the non-profit group, as a CPA he would urge them to publish an annual financial statement in the newsletter.

The "angry member" then wrote that the CPA was "deliberately pushing my buttons" and he was going to find out that was a stupid thing to do. He wrote that he knew how to trace the CPA's location and threatened to kill him! Literally. The angry member was a well-known troublemaker (he'd already gone after me in the short time I had been in the group) and there were demands he be banned. The group owner shrugged it off and refused to take any action, not even a warning message. As a result, I decided (along with many others) not to post messages there anymore but I maintained my membership in order to have access to the Files Section. They have a lot of historical data stored in various formats.?

Long and winding road!

Re: Attached Picture Not In Emailed Photos.

 

That line was copied from "View Source" page, showing a bunch of text, so nothing happens if I click on it.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Attached Picture Not In Emailed Photos.

 

Thanks for the reminder. Yes, I did check the correct subgroup. Below is a screenshot of another subgroup which has the Emailed Photos Album:


My other subgroups also have the Emailed Photos Album displayed. Only the previously mentioned subgroup does not have the Emailed Photos Album.
For my group, the summary of the attachments in the Photo Album is particular to each group/subgroup. In my main group, which does not allow attachments, the summary shows 0B for attachments storage in the Photos Album.

Not a big deal for my group - just curious why the behavior is different for this particular subgroup. Thanks for any insight into this.

Try unsubscribing then resubscribe using the common email address?


About Membership

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I have a pending member waiting to join, however, before I approve her membership I want to see that she sent back the pending membership email. So she is sitting in the pending membership area.
?
That is all good but I just approved another member and I need to change her status so she can post to the group. Because the pending member is sitting there I am unable to see the complete membership list as it keeps on bringing me back to the approval member when I click on membership.

I cannot see the complete membership list. What am I doing wrong? Ilene

Re: Group Not Displayed in 'Your Groups' Menu

 

If I look at My Account in Group 8 it shows the same email address as in Groups1-7. The password appears to be the same. at least it is nine digits. Here's a strange part-

When I LOG OUT of Group 8 and then log back in, I'm taken to My Groups list. But only 1-7 show up. I have to use Google to get to Group 8. And when I click on the link in Google and land on Group 8's home page, I'm already logged back in.

Yes, Group 8 was a Yahoo Groups transfer, but then all my Group IO memberships were Yahoo Group transfers. Everything seemed to run as usual when Group 8 decided to make the switch except, I noticed, my membership was never listed in the My Groups listing. I guess I have to contact support. I thought maybe someone else had also had this happen but I guess not.

Thanks, I appreciate the feedback

About a poll and who can vote

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I was just wondering if only members who are allowed to post in the group can vote in the poll. I have a poll going in one of my groups. It is a tag group. 90% of the members cannot post in the group. Only the members that offer tags can send mail to the group. It seems that they are the only members who are voting in my poll. The other members say they don't have access to the poll even though they are signed into the group.

Tommy,

How can you be sure what account "Group 8" is in since it does not show up in the account you believe it is in?

If you log out of your account, can you still access "Group 8?"

Is Group8 perhaps a group that was transferred from Yahoo groups? If so, it may be using an old account you were using on Yahoo groups. I transferred over several groups from Yahoo groups, which, for various reasons over time were associated with several different email addresses. That wasn't a problem at the time because I generally only used the web interface.

When I got here to groups.io, it took a while to get all of the groups consolidated into one account.

Do you know of anything "unusual" about the setup of group 8?? I can't think of anything that would keep it from showing up on Your Groups, just grasping at straws.? I'd send all the info to support as it seems there's a bug.

Re: Editing an attachment

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Thanks for that suggestion but?I have no clue about anything from the Emailed Photos folder and just looked at it now for the first time. There are over 16,000 photos there in one folder. I could get rid of them all and be happy.
?
Now does that get rid of the image from the attachment or the embedded?image.
My members sometimes in one email embed the graphic and also attach it.
It is a Graphic, tag sharing group.
?
I would think the best way to get rid of an attachment is to check of the box where it says delete and then send the message on,?hoping that the checked photo will be the only one deleted.
?
I only work from the approve messages list on the group pages.

I agree that clicking on "Save without Sending to Group" in this context is not particularly intuitive.

In some circumstances I've found it more straightforward to delete an undesirable [or duplicate] photo directly from the Emailed Photos folder, rather than using the "edit message" interface. Doing so is more-or-less equivalent to clicking on "Save without Sending," inasmuch as the OP is always notified. The only confusing thing about doing it this way is you have to remember the refresh the page before attempting to delete any other photos. See??
