Quesitons re: notices and other things
Once I give the go ahead to transfer my group, what notices will be sent to my group and when?? Do I prepare these notices or are they standard notices Mark sends out? Can they be edited?
Can the invite notice be edited for all invite notices?? I tried to edit it and wasn't able to but I was able to add more information in the box below.? The invite is signed "Cheers,The Groups.io Team".? Can I change that to Thanks for your support, Linda Perry to personalize it. ?? On my home page, instead of my member scrolling down to the join this group button, can I just do a link further up to say click on here to join now. If I have a member on moderation and I reject their posting and give them the reason why, is that message or my reply saved anywhere on the group or do I need to send the e-mail from my e-mail account to keep a record of it?

Linda,
Once I give the go ahead to transfer my group, what notices will beThere are two: "You have been added ..." sent by Groups.io, and a Welcome type of Member Notice sent by your group. Do I prepare these notices or are they standard notices Mark sendsThe one sent by Groups.io is standard. You can't edit it but you can omit it by unchecking the bottom checkbox in the list of things to transfer. There's an example, the second message shown here: /g/GroupManagersForum/message/5497 The one sent by your group is it's Welcome message, if you have one marked as Active. Some samples posted here: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Welcome-Message-for-Yahoo-Group-transfer See also: /g/GroupManagersForum/topic/14617965 That page is linked from the transfer advice page (under construction): /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Transfer-from-Yahoo-Groups Can the invite notice be edited for all invite notices?In the Member Notice page of your group you can have one or more versions of the Invite text you may want to use. The one marked Active will be pre-filled in the Customize Message box on the Invite page. But as you discovered, that only controls the included portion of the message; you cannot alter the rest of the message. What I do is make my included content complete unto itself: /g/GroupManagersForum/message/5779 On my home page, instead of my member scrolling down to the join thisInteresting question. You probably can; see the Promote page for the things you can put in other web pages, maybe that can be adapted for home page use. If I have a member on moderation and I reject their posting and giveIt is recorded in the Moderator Activity log. I thought it a bit peculiar that the log entry includes the text of my reply, but better there than it not being anywhere. or do I need to send the e-mail from my e-mail account to keep aThe reject page has checkboxes to bcc the message to yourself or to all the moderators (self included). I normally use the latter. Shal -- Help: /static/help More Help: /g/GroupManagersForum/wiki Even More Help: Search button at the top of Messages list |
