Ok, thanks Duane...

I had thought from other posts that 12 hours was considered to be an extreme time. ?Now I know "soon" means 3-4 days I'm not to worry so much.

I would like to thank you for your post.? Many will benefit.? When I started using a unix port, only freeBSD was available.? Then I moved to linux.? I vaguely recall the commands you have in your answer.? When a GUI interface came out, i moved.? I regret not keeping up my skills at the command line.?

I will hit the books.? This is a elegant solution.

Thank you for taking the time to post.

Only Moderators and Owners can post to an Announcement group. Did you actually make this person a Moderator (pull down the "Role" menu), or are you instead using one of the overrides in the "Posting Privileges" section? If you did the latter, it will not work.

Be sure to save any changes.

Bruce

On an Announcement type group, only moderators can post, regardless of which settings you choose for the member (i.e., Override: not moderated)? In order for them to post, you'd need to make them a moderator.? They must also send from the email address that has moderator privileges.

Susan,

"Claim" is an automatic status that is set when a moderator interacts with a message that needs moderation.
You can moderate by email as well - just click reply and send an essentially blank email.

It wouldn't necessarily be part of accepting new members. If you don't have a restricted group, new members will be accepted automatically.
If you want to be able to assess the potential member, use a Pending Subscription notice. The potential member will automatically be sent an email with your customized message. Replies go to owner emails.

I just setup a group and my list is an announcement group but the person who sent the message has the ability to post. Yet, I got this message:

Yahoo is glitchier than ever.? Currently, on two of my groups that I am transferring when I try to add groups.io as a moderator, that "button" is not functioning (and, yes, I am the owner).? I had the same problem with another group for several days until the button finally went live again.? Yet my fourth group, the button has always been live.
Hopefully, this will resolve eventually.? Anybody else facing this problem?

Ken,
? I just finished transferring 3634?photos (2.3 GB) of Narrow gauge railways from a YG list? I chose an image size maximum of 1024 x 1024 pixels,? The new storage used is 448 MB, less than half of what is available for a free list.
I downloaded the images from the YG photo directory to my PC hard drive.? I uploaded them an album at a time into groups.io.? I uploaded about 15 albums a hour.? groups.io automatically resized them to my
maximum image size of 1024 x 1024.? Image quality of the resized images looks identical on my LG and HP 32" monitors when compared to the original images.

? ?Groups.io has limited delete functions; you can either delete a single image or a single photo album.? I had an instance where I had manually double loaded an album.? It was easier to delete the album and upload again the photos for that
album than to individually delete images.? Groups.io does not automatically delete images in the Photo directory, only photos that may have been attached to messages.? Yes you have to manually delete photo album by photo album.? It is not hard and you should be able to delete 50 albums of 60 images each in less than ten minutes.

I would reconsider your maximum image size settings, if you had chosen 'unrestricted' or a size larger than 1024 x 1024 pixels; you likely have some space wasters.

Thanks Bruce

Postings on my group regularly have attachments, I've been monitoring this "issue" for a while. Nothing happens.

I'm not sure whether to regard it as a problem or not. The only problem it causes us at the moment is no-one can upload files or photos directly.

My free group is now occupying 2.1GB of its allocated 1GB. I sort of assumed that setting "Out of space" to "Delete old attachments" would invoke an automatic process that would keep my group within allocation? Or do I need to do it manually?

Well Ken, I didn't read your message carefully.

Obviously, you *didn't* do a transfer, or you would be on the Premium plan right now, and would have a 10 GB allocation, not 1 GB.

Duh.

I don't know what triggers the actual deletion of attachments to remain under quota, using that setting you mentioned. Consider sending a message with an attachment to see what happens, and please report back on your findings.

Anyway, my advice is unchanged...delete stuff yourself as best you can, using the instructions in the wiki page that I linked to you.?

Regards,
Bruce

Let's face it:

we can be sure, that the groups.io team is drowned in requests at the moment. This is not only a technical challenge, but also a staffing challenge.

To my recognition groups.io are very careful in "who is approved in doing which new group". They appearently check manually the request of new groups to prevent picking unwanted contents (*). I think they do an enourmous job on this and I am very pleased that they do so, because this way I can be sure that my groups will not appear in fishy environment. So I am willing to wait for them.

(*)I found a request from their domain in the access.log of a non-public-linked? webpage. The only possibility to know the URL was a link within my private yahoo group

Ken -- If you carefully read the transfer instructions page at?/yahootransfer, you'll find that Y!G attachments are NOT transferred. So if you're over quota, its all the other stuff you have that's causing it, and this setting would not have helped you.

At one time, Mark would stop a transfer for a group that was going to be over its allocation and send the group Owner an email asking what you wanted him to do. This gave you an opportunity to use the photo auto-rescaling options and other stuff within the group settings to help mitigate the problem.

With the existing time crunch to get things moved it's not surprising that things are a little different now.?

Or do I need to do it manually?

Yes.

Following on from that, is there any bulk delete photos (or attachments) tool on the horizon?

It's been "on the horizon" for at least two years, so I wouldn't count on it.

You've come up with the best way to do it, at least for now.? Sub-albums have been requested, but we don't know if it will ever happen.

Once you see that, it becomes a waiting game.? Doing anything else may create problems.? "Soon" is relative and may be up to 3 or 4 days.

Hi,

In the files section it is possible to create folders inside folders, which is very useful to keep things organised. I could not find something similar in the Photos section. I would like to group related photo albums together in a single top folder/album. For now, I have changed the album names to have a similar prefix, but is there a better way?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Shal,
FYI, I upgraded my existing GIO group yesterday about 11am and paid the $220 and started the process.
I sent the invitation, and have heard nothing since...22hrs. ?Under "View existing Transfer status" I see a banner ? that said something like " invitation received, will accept SOON", ?I have not received any email of acceptance so ?I sent another invitation about 8am this morning.....2 hrs ago, still nothing in email.

I also notice that the refresh speed of my various Yahoo Groups have started being slower....I suppose this is all part of the game.

Chuck...waiting with baited breath
