Re: New group Manager With Question.

 

Judy,?

- In your email, just click to reply to the email (the notice, not the member) and it will be automatically approved. No message is required, just an empty reply email.?
You will be replying to the automatically address for that message ( groupname+approve+message number@groupname
?
(You must be using your email address associated with the account (i.e. your account ID).?

I have added this to the Wiki -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Approving---moderating-a-message
Edits welcome!

The moderation message should have a long "reply-to" address of the form "[email protected]".?

This address is system-generated and is specific for the message in question. To approve a message, you need to reply to that, not to the subscriber.

In short, just hit "reply" and "send."

A blank reply, I take it, right?

If you have followed the link but aren't seeing an opportunity to approve the messages, it's probably because you haven't logged in. Login instructions can be found at?/static/help#password?. As long as you don't delete your browser cookies, the login will persist for 30 days.

Once you finish that, you should see a status badge at upper left (look for the Home button), confirming that you are logged in with a Moderator or Owner account. At that point you can go to Admin>Pending and perform your moderation duties online.

Hope this helps,
Bruce

Re: New group Manager With Question.

 

Hi,

Welcome to Groups.IO.

Which method are you using to access and manage the group ¨C web or email? I find that it is more efficient to approve posts via email by simply replying to the post that needs approval.

Cheers,

Joseph

Re: New group Manager With Question.

 

There are a few ways to approve them.? Easiest is to just reply to the notice and it will be automatically approved (if I remember right.)? If you do it online, go to /g/GroupName/pending (or Admin > Pending.)? From there, there are two options.? 1) Select the posts using the check boxes to the left of them and click the Approve (or another) button. 2) Click on the first one to open it, then use the buttons at the bottom to Approve, Reject, Delete, etc.? Once you take care of the first, the next one will automatically open.

New group Manager With Question.

Judy Jones
 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I already have 7 subscribers to my new group overnight, and their first post requires moderator approval, but I can¡¯t find how to do that.

?

I have followed the link in the Needs Approval link in a post, but can¡¯t figure out what to do.

?

I also went into my group¡¯s Needs Approval link, but again, it is not apparent what to do next.? There is no Approve button in the list of suggested actions, or any clue I can find how to do this.

?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: Quick questions about Google Groups transfer #transfer

I have read that the Yahoo transfer process will transfer all topics, users, etc - but the Google transfer will only transfer members but not topics.??

1.? Is this still the case?? Is a better transfer process in the works?
See this message from back in July. If any enhancements are pending, nothing has been said to that effect, either here or .

2.? Is there a workaround?? I read somewhere that you can request support to upload emails - if true, I assume that is for paid accounts, but is there anything we can do to not lose all our content?
Rumor has it that if you can get your message archive in Unix mbox format then support will be able to upload it. However, this same thing has been told to quite a few people (most of them MailMan users) and to date nobody has returned here to report that they ever got it done.

Good luck,

Groups.io site updates #changelog

 

Hi all,

This week's change log:


Feel free to reply to this topic if you'd like to comment on the
changes. Or better yet, if you expect a lot of discussion start a new
topic (or rejoin an existing one) about a specific change.

  • NEW: Topics can have a reply to setting that overrides the group's reply to (and any associated hash tags).
  • NEW: Replaced the Reply To Sender Only checkbox on hashtags with a dropdown, allowing you to override the group's reply to setting.
  • NEW: When a subscriber is viewing a member's profile, display the Email button to send them an email.
  • CHANGE: You can now like messages in topics that are closed (matches email behavior now)
  • BUGFIX: Crash fix for database map view when geocoding cannot find a proper lat/long for an address.
  • BUGFIX: Crash fix when exporting event responses.
  • INTERNAL: Updated logrus logging package and fixed the logging when running a web server in development.

Re: Problem with uploading Files

 

Thank you, Chris. ?Sorry I didn¡¯t continue on with the thread. I was just trying to shorten the emails. I was able to work through the problem with Bruce¡¯s help, which was very much appreciated. ?Turns out it was a storage problem because of very large photo files pulled over from Yahoo, and I learned a lot in fixing the situation. Very grateful for all you do. Anita?

Anita; I don't want to appear "picky" but why have you started a new thread rather than follow on from Bruce's posting when he wrote:

It does sound like you are out of storage space. You might want to check out the wiki entry at?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Managing-Attachments%2C-Files-and-Photos?before proceeding further. It provides information on how to find out how much space is being used and what to do about it. If you have any further questions we will still be here to assist!

Have you followed his suggestion about checking the storage space available to you?

A further suggestion to consider; you state that you are the Group Owner; do you have a second membership as an "ordinary" member, and if so are you erroneously trying to use that membership to carry out uploads?

Re: TWO QUESTIONS #howto

 

Yes, I believe that a member would get private email regardless of their email settings.

The help page says:

No Email?(not available in all groups) sends no posted messages to you by email. You may still receive individual notifications from the group and/or from?.

INDIVIDUAL RESPONSE BACK

Ellen Bourne
 

Today, my group is finally getting on board with Groups.io distribution list.? There was an email today to the subgroup called members.? ?When I tried along with two others to respond to sender I received the first sender that responded so as a last resort I had to respond to the entire group which I did not want to do.

Can you tell me how we could avoid that.
Re: TWO QUESTIONS #howto

 

Am I right in my assumption that private replies get sent to the member's email regardless of their email settings? (I'm thinking of members who have selected "no email").

Thanks

Just checking that I can get through with this email address. If it works OK I will unsubscribe the other one.

Thanks again for the advice.

I have just joined under another email address. If this works OK I will unsubscribe my other address.

I thought that there must be some way to do it. The advice was appreciated.

I have several email addresses that I use for different purposes. For example, some are for Amateur Radio topics and others for more general ones. I am in several groups in Groups.io for different topics like that.

How can I set my messages to come to different email addresses for each of my various groups? At present they all come to the same one which clogs that inbox and ignores the others.
Not exactly what you asked about, but... I have all my messages from multiple groups sent to a single email address and let my email client filter them into mailboxes based on the "List-Id:" field in the message headers.

What this means, as it relates to your question:? There is no way to change the delivery email address for a single group. To get the effect you want, you will have to unsub from that group and resub with your preferred (for that group) email address/account.*
Thanks. I now think I understand the process.

I will apply to join this group again under another email address and when, and if, that is approved I will unsubscribe from this one.
