They are, but have to have the .jpg or .jpeg extension.

But will it exprt more than the 1000 member limit imposed by Yahoo? Up to 1000 can be simply exported to a CSV with a button in Yahoo, and can be easily opened in Excel.

Attempts to transfer photos individually from yahoogroups forum to new groups.io forum

 

Hi,

Since apparently a group transfer mechanism is no longer available, I attempted to transfer one photo

at a time into a new album.? I continually get failures stating: "invalid type of file, only 'image' files are supported"

One would think that jpeg files would be supported.

Hi

Yes, if you go to your settings and then go to export and there is a check list of what you want

When you submit, a note ill be sent to your inbox and there you can download the file then extract.

I am having difficulty in extracting the .mbox files of my messages

Is there a easy to download an entire directory of files?

Thank you,

Re: PG Offline

 

1. Export the 1000 messages to a file,
2. Delete from PGOnline the messages it downloaded.
3. Start downloading again.

PGOnline allows you to download 1000 messages and 100 members at a time. Once you erase the info downloaded, you can run again.

Calendar

 

What is the significance of the "Subscribe to Calendar" button on the bottom of a Group calendar?

If a calendar is set up with an event with reminders, aren't those reminders sent to all Group members? Does "Subscribe to Calendar" affect this calendar message?

Re: Email addresses with/without dots

Sandi D.
 

Success!?

Thanks Shal for your deep analysis and spot on advice to this tricky issue. She discovered she had 2 accounts (or perhaps accidently created the second one yesterday). In any event, she was able to merge them today. She has now successfully posted by email to our group. ??

I hope with yesterday's YG transfer deadline, your workload and that of the other GMF mods will decrease (somewhat) and you can eventually return to a more normal life.?

Only a transfer can change the Sent Date.? Any upload/program will be based on the date/time sent.

Not needed for that.? GIO already has an Export Group Data button on the Settings page where you can select what you want, including everything.

I believe it will eventually allow you to download and archive GIO content, which would allow you to do some super searches. And, if Mark ends up charging all groups a fee in the future you might use the archive to move again.?

mbox upload - dates are missing #mbox #ioimportpl

Edited

Dear Lena,

we used your programm to read in the old mails delivered by the download
of the dashboard. The original dates are entered in message source (of
mbox) but are not delivered into the new groups mail archive but as
sent-date you get the upload date (of today, for instances). Now we have
the question if there is any possibility to enter the date of the
original mail into the uploaded old mails?

Many greetings and thank you in advance for any answer
Andrea

The blocker was that groups.io blocked message import from the script after 40
messages and told me to try again later. About an hour later I still couldn't
import any more messages from that email address
I added a delay 50 seconds between messages to avoid the block. The number 50 can be changed in the beginning of the program.

Just go to your Settings page and select Moderated under Spam Control and click Update Group.? When things cool off, remove the check mark and save the change.? If you've set any members to anything other than Use Group Moderation Setting, it won't effect them.

Actually, you can.? Several people have done it by not furnishing the correct destination group and created a huge mess.? It's just another transfer.

Using smaller screen size iPads in portrait mode

Sandi D.
 

Sharing this for smaller screen iPad users in portrait mode.?

A few weeks back I discovered the reason I could not access some message composition features is because the second line of formating wasn't displayed when I selected the "hamburger" in Portrait mode.?Turning it to Landscape activated the second line and that line of formatting icons has been retained for all future messages even when I start them in Portrait mode.?

Today I tried to respond privately to a message that a member had sent the group. I clicked on the Private button. It turned gray. The only active button was on the left - "Return to Group". I clicked it and returned to the group. Again tried choosing the Private Button. Again it turned gray and the only active button option returned me to the group . So I turned my iPad to landscape and tried a 3rd time. This time the button on the left "Reply to Sender" was active and I was able to send my reply.

Lesson learned. If something fails in Portrait mode, try doing it in Landscape mode. It will be interesting to see if that active button option of Reply to Sender now "sticks" regardless of mode like the formating icons did.?

Is there any possibility you could put up a MODERATE the group button somewhere to make that action quickly and easily acessible?

I don't think you can merge two YG's into one Groups.io group.

You can create a subgroup for your main group. Transferring that is free with your premium payment for your main group.
Anyone who is a member of the subgroup is also a member of the main group. Not all members of the main group need to be members of the subgroup.

You should think about whether a subgroup is logical for your group. See?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Why-use-a-Subgroup
and
/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Subgroups

Easy to do. If you request a transfer (and you may be lucky with timing), be sure you request the right group to be transferred into your subgroup.
