Re: Calendar notices ¨Ca further question . . .

 

You could edit the #cal-notice hashtag and have it send as special.? If it hasn't been used, it might not exist, but you could create it.

Re: Calendar notices ¨Ca further question . . .

 

So Shal,

Is there any way (or setting) to use to send a Calendar Notice like a Special Notice similar to what was available with Y!Groups (when sending a message or making a reply)?

Those messages went to all members I understand whether they are No Email or not.

TIA

Re: Migration questions

 

Duane,
Ref:getting to home page by accident

Even if I enter URL I do not get to the home page. I copied URL at my site, then logged out, then entered URL in browser and got to "Enter Password" page.
Still don't understand how someone could get to my home page.

It would be purely by chance.? If someone happened to enter the URL for a group that isn't listed, it will still show the Home page.

Re: How do I contact a member of my group?

J_Catlady
 

This was just discussed in another thread. PM is not yet a feature in groups.io.

You can go to your members list and click on either "Display name" at the top to sort the list by name, or on "email" to sort the list by email address, and find their email address that way. Or you can go to one of their posts and create a private reply by clicking on "reply" and then on "private" at the bottom right. Or you can try to find an email from them in your inbox.

How do I contact a member of my group?

 

I wanted to contact off list a member of my group. I thought that I could do this by clicking on his name/link under one of his posts, but I was redirected to his profile page, where I found no address, the only link being All Posts by This Member.

I have tried to find him in the Members List, putting his name in the Search box, but the search strangely gave no result, although he is obviously a member of the group.

My group is set to Do not mask e-mail addresses in Archives.

How can I contact a member off list?

Shall,
You said:
You can avoid listing the group in the Groups.io directory, and you can make your group's Messages available to members only. Also Wiki, Calendar and Guidelines; each has their own setting. But you can't make the home page itself invisible to non-members as one could in Yahoo Groups

Somewhat. But there is no equivalent to what Yahoo Groups classic called a "closed" group.

Nor can you prevent people from using the "Request Membership" button or the +subscribe email command. However, if your group has "Restricted Membership" checked you can ignore or reject all such applications.

I figured it out ("duh"), please ignore my question...??


Re: Started Again

The owner of the Group could have checked the 'Disable No Email' option.

How do you delete a chat??


Re: accessing attachments

 

Paul,

Does this mean that the only group members that can view attachments
are the Group Owners ...
No, group members can access them through the messages they were attached to.

And in the special case of images, there's an Emailed Photos album for them.

Re: Moving photos from one album to another

 

Carl,

Let me add one more vote to having this high on the Todo List. Moving
photos from one album to another by the administrator would be very
helpful!
As Duane said earlier in this topic, It is on the official To-Do list:


But to "cast a vote" for it you'd have to chime in on the beta group, there are no Groups.io personnel monitoring GMF. You could add a reply to this topic:
"Move photos between albums"

Re: accessing attachments

 

Shal,

Does this mean that the only group members that can view attachments are the Group Owners in a Paid Group? can't view attachments?
Thanks,

Paul,

I am an owner plus pay $110/yr and I don't see an "Upgrade" page under "Admin". What am I missing?

Hover the cursor over your name in the upper right hand corner. That will show the email address you used to log in. Possibly you are logged in under an address which isn't a group owner? For example, a moderator absent the Billing permission.

Maybe this has been discussed in this group. If so, let me know and I will
try and search the messages. Instead of unsubscribing from one IO group I
belong to, I set my subscription to no mail. This seemed to have worked for
a couple or three weeks or so, but I just got a slew of messages. I checked
the subscription again and it is still set to no mail. What could have
caused this? I went back in, set it to individual email, saved it, and then
immediately set it to no mail. Maybe that will work for awhile.

Re: #transfer #transfer

 

Links transfer as a database. Seems to have worked well except Yahoo had problems so had to recreate a couple in Groups IO.

Re: #transfer #transfer

 

Our travel group has a links library and we have it in the wiki. I wonder whether you can have it moved to there.

Our links ended up in the Database section.

I¡¯ve heard the links will transfer, but will be put in a database. Before I did our transfer I used the Wiki section to put our links in, and told Mark to not transfer the links.
