Re: Easy Group Transfer - Problem with Moderator Assignment in Yahoo #transfer #moderation #owner #yahoo

 

Thanks.? I'm going to try and do this.? I do not want to transfer everything manually.


Re: Easy Group Transfer - Problem with Moderator Assignment in Yahoo #transfer #moderation #owner #yahoo

 

Robert,

When I place a mouse over the green crown is says that I'm an owner.
I forgot about that. Yes, that's one of the mistakes in the "Neo" re-design of 2013, they put the wrong tool-tip on the green crown.

Robert,

It turns out that the spouse of the deceased owner may be able to go
in and modify my privileges or at least make [email protected]
a moderator. In your opinion, is that all she would need to do?
Yes, either one. Or make you an owner.

The transfer agent does not need any privileges, so she can leave those checkboxes blank. The only thing needed is to change the Role setting to Moderator. Then scroll to the bottom to save the change.

Nope, not at all.

Checked it this minute again with Firefox on Android 9.1 .

Also no problems with the emails, I'm using BlueMail and K-9 Mail.

Susan,


No problems for me, using the native Gmail app. What sort of trouble is the member having?

Re: Easy Group Transfer - Problem with Moderator Assignment in Yahoo #transfer #moderation #owner #yahoo

 

I am a moderator of an "orphan" yahoogroup where the owner went missing years ago.? However, on all six of the yahoogroups I own OR moderate, blue and green crowns both now show as "owner," and I have had no problems with the orphan group getting moved.

Yahoogroups is very glitchy right now, perhaps because of all the data being moved, but just because something isn't working today doesn't mean it may not be working tomorrow.? For several days I could not make someone else an owner of one group (even though I was an owner), but after a few days the function started working again.? So keep trying.

Kevin,

I am trying to remember this from when I transferred my group over.? If I remember right you have to add [email protected] as a member to your Yahoo group.? After that is done, then you have to make them a moderator.

HOW DO I DO THIS???

Before we can being the transfer, you must make the [email protected] user a moderator of your group. If you already have done so, please click the 'Give Go Ahead To Transfer' button again, as Yahoo can be flaky.


Re: Help with transfer - HELP!!!!!!!!

 

Once ¡°[email protected]¡± is a member, go to ¡°manage members¡± in Yahoo Groups. ?Select the "[email protected]¡± member by clicking on it and then in the ¡°edit member¡± pop-up change role from ¡°member¡± to moderator. ?You have to have permissions in your group to designate moderators.

Thank you for you comments.? It turns out that the spouse of the deceased owner may be able to go in and modify my privileges or at least make [email protected] a moderator.? In your opinion, is that all she would need to do?? Thanks.


Re: Creating Hashtags #hashtags

 

I have submitted a bug report on this today. Currently users can create new hashtags via email even if the group is set to only Moderators can create. FYI

Re: Easy Group Transfer - Problem with Moderator Assignment in Yahoo #transfer #moderation #owner #yahoo

 

The original owner said he made me an owner not moderator.? When I place a mouse over the green crown is says that I'm an owner.? But I was told blue supercedes green so you are probably right.? In this case, this group has no owner.?

Jim,

Using 3904 or previous 3865 version of Chrome and all is working as expected here. Likewise it works in MS Edge.

Perhaps try refreshing your preference (eg) Set it to 20, Update, Refresh browser and then do the same back to Inifinite Scroll).

The OP (Dennis) didn't say whether GIO or Yahoo, but I read it as GIO.? I think Robert is the one that misunderstood.

Re: Grayed out Upload button

 

Thanks, guys for the response.

All of the groups I am a member but one, have zero files and zero photos uploaded.
I'll pass on the info to the group owners so they can fix the problem.

Again, thank you for your help.

Re: reply to sender/group

 

I always select, for all my Groups, the Settings option for "Reply to Sender" only. That usually prevents inadvertently private comments from going to the whole group when the usual "Reply" button is clicked to initiate the reply.

But, if the sender really wants his reply to go to the whole Group, he can click "Reply All" and his reply will go both to the sender and to the whole Group. That makes it the choice of the individual replying to the email.

I make this Setting clear in a brief footer attached to each Group email.

This works well in my Thunderbird email client. I can only presume it also works in web mail, which I never, never use.

For the transfer email, you must go to YahooGroups and invite the transfer email address to your YahooGroups.
