To be fair we don't know what they say now; the messages were changed 21/22 March. The quoted message certainly doesn't match the old version, and I hope against hope that it isn't the new version. (As an aside I am still awaiting a copy of that to put in the wiki.)

At the same time the suggestion that you unsubscribed yourself may not be true; see my previous post about the precise wording: You have been unsubscribed... Not the correct wording if someone unsubscribes themself.

Dash; have you contacted your co - owner; he / she should have received a message as well; what did that say?

If the words ¡®marked a message as spam¡¯ were not there, it was not a spam removal. And there is no canned ¡®you have been removed¡¯ notification for when a mod removes you. Since ¡®three days¡¯ was in the message it¡¯s clear that you removed yourself.

Dash,

You've probably already seen several suggestions as to what might have caused this, but you are probably in a better position to actually find out what did happen. After you have resumed your subscription, go into Administration / Activities to see what the activity logs have to say.

Re: List of participation members? #howtoguide #membership

 

There's not a direct way.? One option would be to go to Admin > Activity, then select the Message Activity button, choose "Accepted message" from the drop down to the right of Actions, and Search (leave the left box empty, with the gray Search showing.)? That should give a list of all messages that were accepted for posting.? It could take awhile to sort through them if there have been many.? There's not yet a way to download the activity log, though it's been requested.? Then you could use a spreadsheet to do the searching.

List of participation members? #howtoguide #membership

 

Is it possible to extract a list of members who have posted since we transferred from Yahoo Groups??I would like to remove them from the old Yahoo Groups.
I have exported the member list to Excel but I don't see a way to isolate members who have posted since the transfer.

Very low priority! Thanks for any hints!

Re: [email protected] not joining

 

At one time, it was up to 3 weeks.? The last word from Mark was that he was caught up, so I'd guess no more than 2-3 days, unless there's been another rush.

How long does it typically take for the [email protected]?to join a yahoo group?

I submitted the invite yesterday but still not showing up in my yahoo group so i can start working on the transfer

Any idea on expected lead time on this happening?
Re: unmask emails in Calendar?

 

Thanks Duane,

As many of us do, I have an extra "testing" address to see what things look like when you aren't an owner or moderator. This particular email address - in the "description" part of an event - was hidden for both of them, including my owner account. But I'm glad to know there is a work-around. Maybe it was a one-time quirk, but in any case, we can live with a space in there!

Re: I was unsubbed

 

I have no spam filter.? MY isp has none.? I know this because I called them and requested to have access.? There is no spam filter. ??I can't empty what I don't have.

Also I did not mark as spam anything in io.? I was incredibly careful as to what I clicked on in there so I would not hurt my group.

? I will follow the link you sent.? Thanks.? dash

Hi Dash,

Looks like you marked a Groups.io post as spam or a post got diverted to spam by your ISP and then you emptied your spam folder. When this happens, you automatically get unsubbed and receive the message. Be sure to re-subscribe within the 3 days.

Re: Mute Hashtags?

 

The only way for you to control whether a hashtag can be unmutable is to set it as a Special Notice, /static/help#hashtags-1.? You might want to suggest this possible option on the beta group, the "official suggestion box" for the site.

I must be being particularly thick, but I can't find a place to change the status of a hashtag to "unmutable".? This topic is exercising my mind as it fits into our thoughts about how to manage the implications of GDPR in the UK.

Thanks in anticipation.

Re: Ttansferred Members & Introductory Message

 

My mistake.? It's actually even easier, just select the last box "Send a message to your members when the transfer is complete" when starting the transfer.? You could also set up a Welcome Notice if you want to make it more 'personal'.

Re: Transferring Yahoo Lists to SubGroups

 

Each will be a separate transfer, so you will specify the From and To for each one on the Start New Transfer form when you give the go-ahead for them to start.? I'd do the main group and wait for it to complete before doing the others to prevent possible complications.? Don't forget that [email protected] will need to be a moderator of each of the Y groups before you start.

You could put it in the Welcome notice and make sure to select that to be sent when doing the transfer.? You could change it to something more appropriate for new members after the transfer is complete.

Re: Photo image maximum sizes not visible to members

Any size image can be posted. If it's over the limit, it will be rescaled.

Whether image rescaling is turned on -- and whether/how it is communicated to the subscribers -- is a decision that's best left to the group owner. Personally, I'm writing a FAQ document for our group that communicates this and much more. I also have a series of custom Member Notices that I can send to individuals as needed. Others may prefer to use the group wiki. Your mileage may vary, void where prohibited, objects in mirror may be closer than they appear.

Hope this helps,

Ttansferred Members & Introductory Message

 

Do transferred members, as from YahooGroups, receive a copy of the introductory message?

I can post it when all the members have been transferred but I¡¯m just wondering if I need to do this. Since members are transferred in stages on large lists, It would mean posting it several times.

Photo image maximum sizes not visible to members

 

As a list owner and moderator of several lists on groups.io I have been able to determine (and set) the maximum image sizes for photos in files, databases and messages.
However as a list member I have been unable to determine what size images I can post.? Shoouldn't this be displayed somewhere?

?A third possibility, and this actually happened in my group after the transfer (about two years ago), is that you forewarned to someone else a link to login sent to you by , they used it and gained access to your account (possibly completely unknowingly), and (as you) requested removal from the group.

Re: I was unsubbed

J_Catlady
 

There was a bug awhile back where if you forwarded a message to someone else, in certain cases they could get access to your account and even request (as you) to leave the group. If actually happened to me once in the GMF group. I got the notice I had been removed with three days to resume. Mark fixed that bug but there may be a similar one floating arojnd. Are you aware of cc¡¯ing anyone on a messsge, or forwarding one to anyone?

Transferring Yahoo Lists to SubGroups

 

I¡¯m read to transfer a bunch of groups along with their archives from YahooGroups. One group is the main group and the rest are subgroups.

The main group and the subgroups are set up in groups.io

What is the best way to tell Mark where things go? All in the same email or separate? Or other?
