This will sound bizarre. How does one sign on to YaHoo groups?


Eric Johnson
 

Last week-end I had basically a computer meltdown. My two Android devices stopped working with Yahoo. I now can get into YaHoo so far as to see the groups that I belong to. However, that's as far as I can get. Across the top of the screen is a photo of about 20 happy people welcoming me but the only menu item I's allowed to see is "About". All my YaHoo groups are listed down the left side of the screen when I click the top left icon.?

What do I need to get into Yahoo? I've got one last forum to install as a sub-group and I need to get the membership roll. Then I'm done, finished, on to happy days!

The bizarre thing is that I'm asking here for help because the Yahoo 24/7 help desk requires payment. Sort of a good reason we all left. I figure that there are no more experienced folk in matters of Yahoo than the folks who are here!


 

Eric, there's a GMF group on Yahoo, it's public.? Posts are all gone though.? Yahoo has deleted everything on groups, so there are no messages to see.
If you want to post to groupmanagersforum@...,?it will all be explained.? I really miss the archives for people to search to read about all this good stuff.? It's public, so maybe I can send you some links to some posts.

oops, should have been @yahoogroups.com.

if you put yahoo groups in the search box on this group, you can read all about it here.

Erik,

Across the top of the screen is a photo of about 20 happy people
welcoming me ...
Above that photo you should be able to see a banner with black text on an ivory background. Read it, and click through the Learn More link

but the only menu item I's allowed to see is "About".
That's the only page that is left, apart from the pages from the Membership and Management links.

In the bar under the photo, next to About, you should see Membership in any group of which you are at least a member. And you should see Management in any group of which you are a mod or owner.

All my YaHoo groups are listed down the left side of the screen when I
click the top left icon.
When visiting one of your groups make sure the URL in your browser's address bar says /info at the end. If you don't see the Membership or Management menus, refresh the page until you do.

If none of that works for you, then I'm out of ideas.

What do I need to get into Yahoo? I've got one last forum to install
as a sub-group and I need to get the membership roll. Then I'm done,
finished, on to happy days!

3 ways to get into Yahoo Groups (YG).
?
1. If you have a Yahoo email, login via the main Yahoo page.? This automatically gets you logged into Yahoo Groups too. :)? Once in the Yahoo Mail client, in the upper right corner is the box of DOTS.? Click on that and then click on SEE MORE.? One this new page scroll to GROUPS.? Now you are in. :)

2. Yahoo main page.? Just do a SIGN IN. Then on the top menu bar click on the more ...? Next pick Groups.? Now you are in. :)

3. web search for Yahoo Groups.? Sign in and you are good.

Basically, just sign into Yahoo and find groups.

The ONLY thing left in YG is the ABOUT page.? and the ability to subscribe or unsubscribe.?? Nothing else remains.? It's all DELETED. (or removed from our access permanently.)
?
Now, on the WAYBACKMACHINE folks can find a FEW things to still snag. :)??? It's one reason why the ARCHIVE TEAM was working so hard getting a clone of the groups before Verizon closed their access.

[mod note: the logic behind letting this thread continue is that the OP was seeking assistance moving his group to Groups.io. Otherwise messages with content purely about Yahoo Groups should be directed to the original GMF there: groupmanagersforum@... ]
