Re: ... dealing with Groups.io
Hi All, When I heard from Mark about a payment issue the reference number in his reply was numbered well over 10,000. I don't know how long this support reference number count has been running but its probable the number of messages to [email protected] has ticked up a bit in the last week and IO is triaging in some sort of order. My 10K+ numbered inquiry will require follow-up with Mark or his staff but I consider it lower priority than the other issues many are experiencing thanks to Verizon pulling the rug out from under our collective feet last week. I hope this turns out well for all of us, only time and (lots of hard work will tell :-) Charlie

Advice from Mark about invites to the transfer email address. /g/GroupManagersForum/message/21001 And news about slowdown this weekend. /g/GroupManagersForum/message/21010 Frances -- FAQ on Moving from YahooGroups GMF Wiki: (unofficial) Help for members (and would-be members) and group managers |

Re: you have reached the limit
I think the reason it causes consternation is because short of the notice that pops up, there is confusion as to whether or not your invitations have all disappeared, Perhap an immediate email explaining the process and an estimated delay time would be an easy way to assuage moderator and owner doubts as to whether their invitations have disappeared permanently.

Re: Transfer status - "make sure you have sent an invite to your group"
#transfer
Invites might slow down this weekend due to the planned power shutdown in parts of California. (Fire risks)
Mark wrote: I think I'll be fine. We didn't lose power last time, although a bunch of our neighbors did. Plus we do have a backup generator. The person that accepts Yahoo invites, however, is expecting to lose power this afternoon. We're almost caught up on accepting invites, but that will probably fall behind over the next day or two until he gets power again.

Re: Transfer status - "make sure you have sent an invite to your group"

From the wiki -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/FAQ-on-Moving-from-Yahoo-Groups
11. How do I check the transfer status?
?
Transfers are queued up when you first set it up and processed in that order until you get to Step 5.?
?
At that point they are re-ordered based on when the transfer go-ahead is given and uploaded to groups.io in that order (unless you pay $200 for priority service).
?
When you click on the green "Set Up New Transfer" button at bottom left of the Yahoo groups transfer page (/yahootransfer), a new page will come up where you can enter the source and destination group names.?
?
There is also a series of checkboxes for the various areas of the group to transfer (files, photos, members, messages, etc). Simply uncheck the ones you don't want before clicking the "Start New Transfer Process" button.
?
If you've already started a transfer, return to the Yahoo groups transfer page (/yahootransfer), select the transfer you've already started from the "Existing Transfers" list (pull down the menu and click on its name). On the resulting page you will see the same series of checkboxes. Uncheck the ones you don't want and then click the "Update Transfer" button. Actual transfer status for any ongoing transfer can be found in the status box at the top of the page.
?
New (2019-10-23): more details now available. See
?
New (2019-10-25) If you have started a Yahoo Group transfer, and the status is the message that starts "Make sure you have sent an invite to your group", that means that we have not received your invite yet and that you should send another one. That message will change automatically when we receive the invite and is not subject to the delays in other parts of the process are seeing.

Re: Is there a need for two owners?
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýWith the demise of YahooGroups many lists are discovering how much a missing owner impacts the future of a list. To transfer a list from YG at least a full moderator or an owner is needed.? However YG had changed moderator levels and responsibilities. Last year I tried to transfer a list with an absent owner but found that even though I had been a moderator for 17 years I did not have the authority. My moderator status had not been upgraded during YG changes.? The list had 1800 members, an absentee owner and two moderators on YG. The other moderator and I moved the list to groups.io January 2018, and then this summer the other moderator was killed in a traffic accident.? It is a very active list so I have added two full moderators so the list can continue without me.? If you have a large, active, popular list; a co-owner or a full feature moderator is a wise precaution.? But I know of other list owners who prefer the list to die with them.? Your call... ken clark www.shastasprings.com -- ken clark www.shastasprings.com |

Shal, That is a little funny. I was looking at the Yahoo Group and the "old Join date". Can that be edited when users join the new site? Also, any idea how long it will take for the "Transfer" to accept my Yahoo invite? I have not done the upgrade to premium yet? Do I need to do this before "Transfer" will accept my Yahoo invite? Thank you. Scott. |
