Re: Max size of file to upload

The precise wording on the message we received from the site was:?"file too large, was not uploaded"I agree. I've never seen that message before. What you usually get is the "maintenance" message that Duane mentioned. As for why it didn't appear with the larger file...again, I'm stumped.? We will try using a better connection. I am still puzzled to find out if there is a file size limitation.Please come back here and report whatever you find out. Bruce |

Re: Not getting all of my group postings
In Apple Mail, for example, if the Sent version of a message you posted ends up in the same folder with the distributed version of that posting, then Mail will sometimes only display one of them. If it displays the one you Sent, then it appears that the distributed version never arrived. In the case of Apple Mail the solution is to keep the Sent message in the Sent folder and the distributed message in your Inbox. Then both are available, the distributed one having group.io headers.?

Ann,
But below that was a mini version of the flyer that had the wordIt did nothing visible in the edit, but had you approved the message at that point I believe the posted message would have had an empty area where the flyer should have appeared. I think you could have seen this result by clicking Save (not Save & Approve) and then re-opening the message. In order to avoid having an empty spot you could also delete the image from the body of the message. If you deleted the image in the message body, but didn't delete it as an attachment, then it would have gone out as an attachment, but not showing in the message body.

Re: Can't turn off "new users moderated"
Joan,
So this is a difference between a group that was transferred fromNew Users Moderated is the default for any new Groups.io group. There is a difference in the members, however. The members copied from a Yahoo Group retain the Posting Privilege they had in the Yahoo Group, whereas the members who join the Groups.io group by other means are initially set to a Posting Privilege controlled by the New Users Moderated checkbox. if the "new members require approval" setting is on, does thatAs Duane said, the invitation constitutes approval to join the group.

Re: Problem with Yahoo Group
Shai and Mark,?
My invite did not go through yesterday! I tried again and added my other email address to the group by checking the add only to email.list. This time I got an invite and accepted it.? It took me to the website and said it had expired, but the email address was added as a member. It is AOL but already attached to a Yahoo id. I went to.the membership list and promoted it to moderator.? So Mark and group owners can use this work around to.get access for transfers! ? It works! |

Re: Owner Status
Steven,
When logged in to look at the Home button on your group. That will tell you your role in the group. What you hope to see is the Owner badge: Also take a look at the upper right corner, and click on your name to check which email address you used to log in:
So log in with the original Yahoo address. and see what it says. Most likely nothing because the role you had in the Yahoo Group doesn't transfer over when the address is copied into your Groups.io group. The Email Delivery, Posting Privileges, and Join Date do, but not the Role. So transferred addresses always start as a plain member.
Whatever account (email address) you were using when you created the Groups.io group became its owner at that time, and it (or another) must have been owner in order to run the transfer. So that's the place to look first.
Maybe. About the only mistake you could have made that might remove your Owner role would be to merge your account with that role into another account that does not have that role. Which you might have been tempted to do thinking to consolidate your group memberships under the single account which was your Yahoo owner email.
Your credentials on the Yahoo side mean essentially nothing on the Groups.io side. The only thing they're good for is to enable you to carry out the invite and promote of the transfer agent in your Yahoo Group. Unless you're planning another transfer that's not important now.

Re: Problem with Yahoo Group
Janis,
?
My membership list also works. But it does not show the email address I added via "add only to the email list".?? The invitee's won't become members until they accept the invitation. That's still true when you check that box.
If it did, could use that as an in by owners being able to add and then? promote to moderator. I don't think it matters whether you check that box when inviting the transfer address - it is already connected to a Yahoo account. So go ahead that way, if it works for you.

See?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Group-Content-Is-Missing The other possibility is that you demoted yourself, or someone else did. Have the other Owner promote you again (change the Role field in your member record). If the problem is with your Owner status in the Yahoo group, I cannot help you with that. Good luck, Bruce |

Re: Bulk folder upload failing - undergoing maintenance
Solved it. It was not a timeout (at least only partially), but a restriction without messaging. The files section restricted photos - they must be uploaded to the photos section.
I did not see the photo restriction error though when trying to push a large number of files (I tried 182, 150, 100 ,75), but once I tried to push a smaller number of files (25), I got the photos section restriction error. Pushing all 182 photos in one batch worked just fine when pushing them to a photo album. My guess is that there is a backend bug or a UI oversight in how the photos section restriction is handled when pushing a large number of files - after a certain quantity, batch size, or _timeout_, the photos restriction error is not displayed in the UI or bubbled up client side. That is why a similar size batch upload worked in another group - the restriction was not in place. Anyways, problem solved, but kinda frustrating. How do I open a bug report or enhancement request? |

If it did, groups.io could use that as an in by owners being able to add and then? promote to moderator. But it is not showing that email address I added. Some one mentioned above nothing happens when they click on conversations, I had to refresh the browser several times between copying the last of my messages from that group.? But I delete the messages as I copy and paste so thought that might be why.? Have not checked my other groups. We no longer use them. |

Aha! That's the problem. She needs to make you a moderator. You are already a member.

Re: How do I reply to message in Digest Mode?
Ah! Thank you for clarifying that.
What it's?supposed to do is --Open that new mail window --Create a new mail item --Insert the proper [mygroup]@groups.io address --Insert the proper Subject (same Topic) Move the Insertion Pointer into the body This is done (hover your cursor over the "Reply to Group" link and look at the bottom of the screen) by the URL associated with "Reply to Group", which looks like this: mailto:[email protected]&Subject=MyTopic Your mail isn't quite configured right, so the window opens, but the rest of the info (To, Subject) is not honored. How you do this depends on what application you use for mail. Larry? |

Re: How do I reply to message in Digest Mode?
Ruth D, I'm not sure why Reply to Sender, or Reply to Group doesn't open a reply, but opens a new mail window where I get to see all my mail.? It should open a message composition window in your email interface, with the To and Subject fields filled in. That's basically all it can do given the limitations of a mailto link (which is what those are). If it isn't opening a new message composition, but is just opening your email Inbox, that's something about how your default email is configured on your computer or device.

Re: How do I reply to message in Digest Mode?
I'm not sure why Reply to Sender, or Reply to Group doesn't open a reply, but opens a new mail window where I get to see all my mail.? Yes, I can go to groups.io, find the message I want to reply to and type a reply, as I am doing here. Just don't understand why there's a Reply to sender option, if it's not usable.?
