I don't see this at all:

My W&W Updated Month Day, Year

?

That page of the Wiki was written by someone with an Album named My W&W and should be made generic so everyone will understand.? The Wiki page needs to be cleaned up, but has all the basics.? As Bruce mentioned, it's very easy to add to an existing album, so you could put that photo in the Members album and delete the new album.

No notification is sent to the group, so you'd need to do that.? There have been suggestions made on beta for notifications and/or a New Photo album, but those are down the road, if at all.

And my 3200+ at the time 20 year old group had some 600 Yahoo bouncers.?
Yahoo has a policy of closing accounts that are not accessed by the "owner" at some unspecified and apparently variable frequency.
I call these people Zombies.? They are there but not alive.
The fact that they have not been automatically removed by Yahoo from their groups is a testament to the attention that Yahoo pays to the groups.
Their bread a butter has been hosting ATT and Verizon email service.

Just possibly they do not have an account at groups.io for their Apple Mail?
Unlike Yahoo, you may only have one email address per account in groups.io

So HOW do I put a photo into a pre-existing album?

Go to the album. Click on Add Photos. In the ensuring dialog box, click browse...

Find the photos and click on it. A thumbnail will appear in the dialog box. Click Add.?

You are done.

Member reports that sending a post via GMAIL works fine but when sending using Apple Mail receives a text box with the subject line error message. Any thoughts on why this would happen?

Thanks,

It should not be a problem. Any account marked as "bouncing" in Yahoo won't be copied to groups.io. When the transfer is complete, you will receive a summary message of all accounts that were not copied, for whatever reason.

Be advised that, in addition to those who were bouncing beforehand, about half the people we had set to "no email" and "special notices" began to bounce afterward. These were folks who probably closed an email account and for some reason found doing this to be easier than simply unsubscribing. Frankly, it was pretty obvious that these folks weren't interested in participating anyway; and I wonder now why I even bothered to chase any of them down.

Bruce?

No one can get to the Photos link unless they're a member of your group.

Try reading the information at /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/How-To-Make-a-Photo-Album to see if it helps.? Then if you still have questions, you can come back to ask them.

BTW, you want to upload the photo to the group, not download.

I agree with Duane. Mark’s process is robust. Through sleet and through snow, he delivers! ?

It shouldn't cause any problem.? If they can't be contacted when the transfer is done, they just won't be copied to the new group.

Thanks. Tried each of those, including re-trying Arial. Not in that or Courier
New. It is in Tahoma. I don't have Segoe UI. This is in XP.

I sent a private message to each member of the Yahoo group I am having transferred. I got 14 'Delivery Failure' and 'Undeliverable:' messages back. If my actual membership is only reduced by 14 that is not bad at all. What I need to know is this. If I keep these 14 as part of the membership that Support will be transferring to Groups.io, will it cause a problem with the transfer? I do not understand most of what is said in these messages and so I don't want to start deleting members and then discover it was a temporary inability to deliver a message.

The Yahoo invitations never did go through, but I asked
Mark about the old Yahoo request membership link. Mark
was able to get 'transfer' onto those groups using that
and the group transfers were set in motion that way.

Curious. How did Mark gain Moderator privileges in the
Y!G without an owner's intervention?

The problem was not getting 'transfer' moderator privileges. The problem was getting 'transfer' onto the Yahoo group in the first place. The invitation process simply wasn't working. Working from the other direction, the request to join got through and the owner was able to approve and promote 'transfer'.

Dear all,

I need help and it must be step-by-step instructions. Metaphors and directions which do not say how to do something explicitly do me no good.

The issue of many people not reading our guidelines (which includes all our subscription change possibilities) is very bad.

Once per week would drive me nuts. I’d make a mailbox rule to delete that before I saw it. It would take me about two weeks to decide to never see that again.

>> I want it to be in their faces, but not more than once a week to annoy the people too much that do actually use the guidelines.?

Food for thought: Is once a week even going to change the behavior of those you say don't bother saving what you request and save? And is a constant reminder to those people that DO follow the guidelines NOT going to annoy them, regardless of the frequency?

You apparently have strict guidelines for the behavior in your group. That's fine. Lay out what the guidelines are when a member joins. They will either a.) understand and abide by them, or b.) "seem to think that it does not apply to them" and ignore them. In the opinion of the management team in our group, that's what moderators are for. A reminder to the offending party to either 'shape up or ship out' is sent, pointing out that the guidelines are in place for a reason. Yes, there were some members of our group (when it was on Y!G) that made issue with some of the guidelines that were established and they insisted their way was better, or the rules were stupid (without necessarily knowing the background of the rule), but our answer was always 'But it's Gary's group, so he gets to set the rules.' Gary has, sadly, passed on, and a group of us have taken up the continuance of his group and while we may tweak things a little (like moving it to GRIO) we still maintain that idea that 99% of the members want to behave and will and the other 1% won't no matter how much we want them to; don't punish the 99% for the sins of the 1%. And membership is strictly voluntary: don't like our guidelines and rules, start your own group.

Your group may be different, but that's our experience.

You can also just click on the member's display name under any post or post preview (this saves having to click on the message itself, and then on "more")
