Help! Never heard back after sending invitation email.
Hi,
I am trying to move a large (5,000 member), 20 year old neighborhood yahoogroup (adamsmorgan) to groups.io I believe I followed the instructions...upgraded to premium then began the process. I invited the required email address to be a member, but never got the ¡°invitation accepted, make it a moderator¡± email. I waited and waited, but heard nothing. I tried again, still nothing. What can/should I do? Very, very frustrated! |

Re: Anything like yahoo links functionality?

#messages
#links
#featurerequest
I set up the links in the Database section.??? You create a separate "table" for links within the database and then specify the columns of the table.??? I have several columns:? link_url, description, comments, date (when originally set up), suggester....

Ok so according to the caveats...I CAN rename a group... but. ?I will do the group renaming on a Friday night!!! ? Thanks!!! ?Dale? -- Based on previous posts, I assume you have already deleted any undesirable/overlapping content from both groups? If you want to swap group names, you'll have to do it as follows: Rename group aaa to xxx Rename group bbb to aaa Rename group xxx to bbb Then go through both groups and clean up things according to the instructions on affected content at?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Renaming-a-Group Hope this helps, Bruce |

Re: How to approve "pending" members imported from YG?

Gina -- If you had used the Easy Group Transfer mechanism, they would not be "pending." But I understand why this might not work for you...for any number of reasons. Go to Admin>Members. If necessary (and it probably won't be), pull down the blue menu at upper left and select "Pending Approval." Click the box to the left of the "Display Name" table heading to select everyone on the page. Scroll down to the "Actions" menu and select "Approve." Repeat for each screen-full of pending subscriptions. If you want to increase the number per page, go to?/account?page=prefs?and change "Items Per Page" to 100. Hope this helps, Bruce |

Can I uncheck the option to transfer members or at this point of waiting will it muck things up?Susan -- Leave it alone. If those email addresses are already subscribed, their accounts will not be migrated, but their content still will. Bruce |

If they have a display name, would that show up on a message board post and on an email instead?If they have a Display Name, that will be shown in the online archives.? I believe it should also show on the emails received by your members, but it will also contain the email address of the person that sent it.

Perhaps once the Yahoo exodus is over we could ask Support whether our join dates can be changed.? I'd love for my group's creation date to be changed too since it has dated from the first message, not the date it was actually created on ONEList ? ?

#transfer
I suggest you download your member list now that you have it how you like it. You can do that from the Admin->Members->Download button.

You¡¯ll get a csv file with all the entries. After the Yahoo transfer completes, you can then do it again and compare the two to facilitate your clean-up. Gilbert On Nov 6, 2019, at 12:03 PM, Duane <txpigeon@...> wrote: |

You might post this on the Beta group that Mark monitors. For best visibility, use a good hashtag or two - #featurerequest or something else. |
