Jules,

A disadvantage of what you're doing is that the content at Groups.io is
uploaded by, and hence owned by, you - rather than the member who
originally contributed it to your Yahoo group. That's not a problem if
the content was contributed to that group by you and/or other moderators
originally.

The Groups Transfer agent is able to copy all of the content of your
Yahoo Group for you, and it will preserve the linkage between the
content and the member who uploaded it.
/static/transfer

A disadvantage of having the transfer agent do it is that it copies the
memberships first (so that it can establish those linkages) and then the
content. Usually this presents no difficulty, but sometimes the transfer
takes a little while to complete, and eager members might start posting
and uploading immediately, getting new material mixed in with the
transferred material.

I think a solution to that is to use the group's Settings page to
prevent member contributions until after the transfer of content has
completed. That would be:

[_] Announcement Group (in Group Settings)

and then one of the "Only moderators" settings for each of the areas
under the Features section.

If you do this you should probably include that in your pre-transfer
announcement to your Yahoo Group members, so they understand why there's
a brief before the Groups.io posting and features are enabled for them
to contribute.

Note that those are not row numbers in the spreadsheet sense. They are
an ID (a sequence number or serial number) assigned to the row at its
creation - if you delete a row the other rows do not change number. If
you sort by a column the numbers sort with the rest of the row content.

It does not appear that this can be done.

The column content _should_ word wrap. I'm not sure why they don't for
you, it may be a browser issue. Or maybe something about the content of
cells (pasted non-break spaces instead of ordinary spaces?). In any
case, if no one else here in GMF has a suggestion this might be a
bug/issue to report to [email protected]. Tell them the name of the
group and the table, the browser you use, your OS and anything about how
you created the table that might be unusual.

This is the perfect place to ask. In this case, since the feature you
want does not appear to exist, one place to look is on the Groups.io
to-do list:


And, since I don't see a relevant entry in the Database column there,
you can make a request for the feature (manual column width adjustment)
in the beta@ group:
/g/beta/
