Can't invite


 

I attempted to invite [email protected] to a yahoo discussion group, but I get a message that says "Sorry, an error occurred while loading the content."

I believe "content" is the [email protected] email address I entered in the dialogue box to invite members.

For the io group to be able to move all the members from the yahoo discussion group to the new groups.io discussion group, [email protected] needs to be a member and moderator of the yahoo group but I cannot send the invite to [email protected]. Will [email protected] respond to a personal email message to join?
Sincerely,
Stan Gorodenski

Everyone, please read this. It's right in the EasyTransfer instructions!!!!!!!
"If you receive an error when inviting the [email protected] member to join your Yahoo Group, that's ok, the invite still went out. You do not need to submit a second invite."

I experienced the same thing, then three days later "[email protected] was
added to my Yahoo groups. In the meantime I had already done a manual
invite. Yahoo is screwy!

I can get the Yahoo invitation to go out, but only by first refreshing the invitation page. Your mileage may vary.

Okay, I see it now. Whoever wrote these instructions should have moved this message to step 1 instead of up at the top that begins with yahoo is having problems and expect delays, etc. When I saw this I just glanced over it. It's no news to me that yahoo may be experiencing delays.

"Whoever wrote these instructions" is Mark, who is doing a stellar job trying to keep up with YAHOO's problems which are not his fault.

Stan,

I attempted to invite [email protected] to a yahoo discussion group,
but I get a message that says "Sorry, an error occurred while loading
the content."
To combat the uncertainty over whether the invitation was actually sent or not, the transfer agent started sending an acknowledgement to the Y!group's -owner address. Given the backlog, the acknowledgement may arrive days ahead of the transfer agent accepting the invitation.


I believe "content" is the [email protected] email address I entered
in the dialogue box to invite members.
I think actually that error message usually refers to the content of the scrolling area of the page. In the case of an Invite it would likely have been the results list that it couldn't load, which would ordinarily replace the fill-in forms.

Will [email protected] respond to a personal email message to join?
Not yet, but it is being considered. See Mark's reply I cited above.

That's typically what you see when you try to invite that address to your GIO group instead of the YG as stated.

Brian -- Send the invitation from your Yahoo Group.
