The group I created was only approved 2 days ago. So far, only 1 invite accepted. This person was moderator on y'g & I want to make same as moderator on the IO group.
As yet, I don't see an option to make a member a moderator.
Thanks for any input.

Sue, Duane, Toby,

?

I just read this thread in Beta. Sue, you named the problem which I described. And suggestions were made there by Toby to make database search easier ¨Cmessage nr. 16107. I can only agree to all of them.

?

In message nr. 16116 Duane writes:

?

In your Account settings, under Preferences, you can select the number of Items Per Page - 20, 50, 100, or Infinite Scroll.? Infinite Scroll doesn't work in a database, but the others do.? This also changes what you see on the web site when looking at messages.

?

This feature of course would help, but I couldn?t find it. Maybe it?s a premium feature?

Re: How to follow a topic from the web UI?

 

Paul,

Interesting. I wonder where I went wrong in attempting to append that earlier. Oh well.

That implies to me that the implementation effort for that part of it might be a lot less than I'd imagined. Then all that's needed is the UI element to provide the view choices -- show only the muted, not muted, followed or not followed threads. I've suggested (in beta) that the UI element has a home: in the filter pane (advanced search) pane of the messages and topics lists, and the Tools pane of the Search results.

Re: Date format in email calendar reminders

 

Bob,

3.?????? select a particular date format in the Group¡¯s settings, then my vote goes to

Mark has said pretty clearly that he won't be changing to a different single format. Rather an option for format would be added. I believe that it would be an account option (per member) like Timezone, not a per group option.

Re: Date format in email calendar reminders

I have had calendars that allow you to choose. When creating my profile here, I thought that I chose my date and time region, but maybe I'm wrong. I know for sure I chose my time in my profile. Why not have the same choice of date display, in?everyone's profile. That would solve the situation for everyone. Whatever their choice is, that would show in any of their groups and everyone would be happy. It's doable.

I feel your frustration guys! I am feeling it all over through many of?the groups that are still there and asking me how to move here. I think if I had no other choice but to go back to Yahoo Groups, I would simply close my groups down. Never again do I want to feel that kind of frustration!

Subject: [GMF] Yahoo might be dead - transfer questions

?

I've invited [email protected] to our Yahoo group twice now, and it doesn't seem to be working. For that matter, none of my emails are going through to the Yahoo groups list, so I'm worried that Yahoo is entirely dead at this point. I'm thinking of just starting a new group, and hopefully reaching a majority of the old list via private emails, FB, and other social networking by each other.

?

If I just start a new group, and Yahoo comes back up eventually and does the transfer, what will happen? Will the transfer overwrite the new members? Will we have duplicates?

?

I'm SO frustrated that I can't even communicate with our mailing list at all right now.

Thanks,

Re: Yahoo might be dead - transfer questions

I apologize. I should have answered your other questions. If you create a group and have your members sub themselves, the transfer will not overwrite them. The transfer recognizes each member by their email address. However if they subscibe with a different email address, they may end up subbed twice, so if you contact your members to sub themselves, be sure to let them know to use the same email address they used at Yahoo groups.
?
Yahoo groups is not completely dead. I am still getting the occasional email from there. Not many, but some.

I can add ?allview=1 to the URL parameters to get the buttons, but this seems very odd.

I don't see that effect with GMF's messages. What were you looking at when you did that (topic list, topic, message list, message)?

The guy who does the transfers is on vacation until May 2nd or 3rd, I believe. There will not be any transfers until he gets back.


[mod note: he said "delayed", which may not be the same as "deferred until my return".
?But it might be.]

Hi Jack, Sal, Sharon and others,

This Wikipedia page shows the date format use by the various countries.

I'm ok with yymmdd, so if only one date format can be accomodated, this gets my vote.

It would be much better of course to be able to select a particular date format in the Group¡¯s settings. Surely it can¡¯t be that hard to include this functionality.

Hi Mark,

As Duane mentioned this topic has been raised as - HERE. Pity it's taking so long to change what I would think is a simple enhancement (but I'm no programmer (;>)

It is a bit infuriating in my subject lines I have to preface with a European date to make sure the members of my Groups (amateur radio - and times - 24hr clock in Z/UTC/GMT) can recognise the date format correctly 01/06/18 - 1st of June or 6th January? Of course the 1st of June from our perspective.

And a last, a lot of progressive on-line sites are starting to adopt the standard for dating format YY/MM/DD/M and no AM/PM just 24hrs.

Cheers

Re: Date format in email calendar reminders

 

Sharon,

The ISO is not common in the US.

I started using a 6-digit format, eg 180424 back in the mid '70s because it fit well when formatting lists for computer terminals and printers that had tab stops preset every 8 columns. I knew we chose YYMMDD so that any dumb text sort on that column would be chronological. Little did I know that years later that would be an accepted short format in ISO-8601. Alas it was removed in 2004 (too much concern for Y2K issues?)..
?
Most people associate with the military, and even worse with the militant white-supremicist groups that seem to think using the 24 hour clock makes them sound super tough and in the know.

Yikes. The military yes, but I never heard of the latter. Ironic given that it is an ISO standard - "I" standing for International.

My primary association is humorous - XKCD:


On the other hand, even though my father was 30 years in the USMC and I have no problem using 24-hour time, I still think in AM/PM by habit.

Hi Rosalee! For free groups, you are allowed 1 gb of storage. I have an Incredimail group. I have learned that the best thing to do to prevent buildup of space on the server is to go into your admin to settings and disable photos because everything because everything with graphics attached has the graphics automatically dumped into a folder in photos. Also in the admin, there is place under Message Formatting in the admin that you can set to "delete old attachments". Those two settings will help.

Thanks, Toby and Shal,

this could be a temporary solution. I could have thought about that myself. Or using two browsers could be another option.
