Re: Attachments & Digests

 

I find myself very disconcerted by your use of "summarily" in this context. The transfer instructions are quite clear that message attachments are not migrated.
No, no, no. The were deleted by Yahoo years ago. Yahoo just decided one day to strip all attachments from messages. After that they were stored separately in files, but anything before that was gone.

Also are attachments sent with digests?

We find that people don’t look at attachments if they aren’t delivered. That may change because Groups.Io is so much faster but the time to wait for yahoo to open, then locate the file is more than some people will take.

Re: When I am just a member why doesn't the group I belong to show up in "My groups"

This usually means that you are logged in under a different email address than the one subscribed to that group.

In groups.io, your email address IS your user ID. There is no separate account identifier.

Hope this helps,

Wow. That's a tough one.?

My ISP monitors how many people I put on an addressee list for any given message and limits it on the premise that if I insert too many I could be spamming. I didn't know it was possible to reverse this and monitor an IP address using similar criteria.?

What is the domain of the receiving address? If so we may need to contact them somehow and let them know that groups.io is a provider of mailing lists and sending lots of messages is to be expected.

I hope this helps, but it probably doesn't.

When I am just a member why doesn't the group I belong to show up in "My groups"

 

Dear all,

This is probably an elementary question, but it's important to me. I have long belonged to yahoo groups where I am not the moderator or owner :). One of these is BookerPrize@...?now [email protected],? I just received the notification that the Booker Prize people have moved and I logged in.

But when I go over to My groups all I see are the three I am owner/moderator of, beta, group managers forum. Why do I not see the one where I am simply a member. Do I have to do something to have the groups I belong to without being a moderator or member show up on My Groups?

You could,? of course, include a screenshot of the map image the link represents.

Open your group, then click on "Subscription" on the left followed by "Advanced Preferences" about halfway down the page.?

Re: Integration with copying messages to subgroup #integration #subgroups

 

Pedja,

I would like to copy messages from Yahoo to specific subgroup instead of main group. I want members from Yahoo to be copied as members of main group. Is that possible?

Yes.

When you set up the transfer select the subgroup as the destination. The members will be added to both the subgroup and the primary group.

If you don't include the members in the transfer to the subgroup their content will end? up "orphaned" - attributed to your account rather than theirs.

First off, in groups.io, your email address IS your user ID. There is no separate user identifier. Merging means you want to use the "to" account, and delete the "from" account. Otherwise you would just keep the two accounts and not merge them, right?

It's also always a good idea to set up at least two owners for every group to troubleshoot such situations. This could be either a trusted individual, or a second email address for yourself (preferably the former). A Moderator cannot reinstate your group ownership, only an Owner can.

Not trying to hit you when you're down, just helping you to understand what these things means so we don't have a repeat. Having said all that...

If you are the last owner of a group, groups.io *should* have kept you from deleting the account. I know that this safeguard is in place for normal account deletion, but if that safeguard can be circumvented by account merging, that sounds to me like a system bug.

The best I can suggest to you at this point it to try to log in under your GMail account and see if that gets you back to your group as an owner. If not (and it probably won't), send a message to [email protected]?explaining the situation and suggesting that the same safeguard be put in place for account merging as it is for deletion.

Hope this helps,
Bruce


Is there a way to embed iframe or map inside a post

 

Hi,

The members of our group really want to be able to embed a Google map inside a post, I tried iframe but that didn't work.
Is there a way to do so? the requirement is for the map to be interactive when shown in the post.


<iframe src="https://www.google.com/maps/embed?pb" width="600" height="450" frameborder="0" style="border:0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Thanks

Re: Members receiving post at different times

So, in this case, at that specific time, there was a 15 minute delay from when
you posted/sent the message to when groups.io processed that post and sent to
the group.
On this group, all posts are moderated, so that delay also includes the 'dead zone' until it was approved at 4:24. That can vary greatly, depending on how long it takes for a moderator to approve it.

I have sent her the link to finding our group on ; hopefully that will work.

Is there some reason that she might not have received either of the invitations?
