Re: moving emails from yahoo to io

 

Hi

See the FAQ:
FAQ on Moving from YahooGroups
Has info on pricing to use the Groups.io transfer process and free or other alternatives.

5. What gets transferred using the Transfer Agent?
?
Groups.io can transfer message archives, properly owned and properly threaded, (without attachments, however), photos, files, links and databases. Calendar entries are not copied at this time. Subscribers (members) are also transferred, maintaining their subscription options and ownership of each message and other group content.
?
Those with "no mail" status in YG migrating to a Groups.io group with "no mail" disabled will have Special Notice status instead.

I just did some testing and you're probably right.? Try using your iPad in landscape mode, then check.? When the screen gets too narrow, some things are left off of the menu.

moving emails from yahoo to io

 

Hello folks,

Is there a way to move some messages from Yahoo to io? There are perhaps 50 or so I would like to import to maintain continuity and keep the conversations together for our new group.

Thanks for your hard work!

Re: Moving Yahoo group can't find how to invite [email protected]

Bonnie,

If you just want to use your Group as a mailing list, without archives, files, photos, etc you may not have to move at all.
My understanding, always subject to correction, is tha Yahoo Groups is becoming just an email reflector.

FWIW.

I just checked and that box in UNchecked in all of my groups. I too have the 3 lines and the second line doesn't give my any font options that I can find.?

Hi Bruce,?
I own/moderate 3 groups. I haven't been into my Admin settings in any of the group's to check or uncheck that box so I am thinking the default is something other than Normalize HTML Emails.?


Are you referring to an Admin setting in my IO account or an Admin setting in each group?
I am headed over now to see if I can find it/them.?

I thought maybe it was the iPad that was prevented me from seeing font styles and sizes.?
Many Thanks,

Re: Searching for NC badges / digest clarification

 

If you download the member list, you'll get a CSV of all the members.? The last column is
? ?"User Status(0=Not Confirmed,1=Confirmed,2=Inactive,3=Bouncing,4=Bounced)"


If you import that CSV into a spreadsheet, you should be able to sort by the las
t column and see all your NCs.

If that email address is a part of the YG, it would be better to remove him.? As Frances mentioned, you need to set your group to Restricted to prevent people from automatically being added as members.

Re: My settings are for HTML but I'm getting Plain Text

 

Bruce,
I have several subscriptions to a test group. ? Different Email subscriptions to cover all choices
Individual email and special both give me the problem.
Haven¡¯t gotten a digest or summary yet.
All accounts show HTML as well as the owner settings.

Is your own subscription set to Plain Digest? If so, change it to Full Featured Digest.

Bruce, thank you so much for all that clear explanation! Never would have found the scroll setting on my own. Lots of interesting things hiding in interesting places.?

Re: failure to accept invitation AND other YG issues

 

Most times when you see "Sorry, an error occurred while loading the content." it's a sign that Yahoo isn't working correctly.

To promote the transfer agent, you will need the "Add, remove, and change?moderator?privileges"?permission in your Y!G.

I don't see anyplace to view or change permissions. I was just recently upgraded to moderator in order to effect these transfers so am a noobie moderator.
You can't do it. The existing Owner will either have to provide you with this permission, make you a co-owner, or promote the transfer agent himself

Is there a way to search for all members in NC status at once??
And is there a way to increase the number of members showing at one time (when viewing the member list) from the 20 at a time now, to more, or infinite scroll preferred?
These I can help with, someone else will need to answer the other parts.

At the present time, there's not a way to only find NC, though it's been asked for on the beta group.? It's much better than it was because at least now the badge is a different color.

While signed in, go to your account using the drop down at the upper right.? It will either show your Display name or the first part of your email address.? On that list, select Account.? On the resulting page, select Preferences from the left menu.? Toward the bottom of the page where it says Items Per Page, you can select 20, 50, 100, or infinite scroll.? Be aware that infinite scroll doesn't work on certain areas of the site and will return you to 20.? In all those cases that I've found so far, 100 works.
