How are "Links" represented in Groups.io after migrating my group from Yahoo! Groups?
#links
#transfer
#migration
#yahoo
Hello. I and my group 'darklands' are a recent immigrant from Yahoo! Groups. We are all extremely thankful to have been openly received on friendly shores. Thank you so much!
My question here is about the data category "Links". In our Easy Groups Transfer request to Groups.io the "Transfer Links" option was selected, and in the final transfer confirmation "Transfer Links" was acknowledged as one of the operations with an associated message further down in the report, "42 links were transferred. WARNING: Some links were not able to be transferred because of a bug in Yahoo's export system. You will need to manually review the links." The thing is, In my Groups.io group UI, I don't even see anywhere where Links might be kept or copied to. I have searched in Group_Help, GMF_Help, the transfer FAQ and the online Help for the keyword "link", but nowhere in any of the returns have I found any clue about the final relative endpoint for transferred Links to be placed. I apologize if this is right under my nose. But can anyone help point me in the right direction? Source Y! group:? Links data source path: ? Destination group:?/g/darklands? Links data destination path:? ??? Thanks for your time and assistance. - Matt Wirkkala, Darklands group owner |

Tips like this it might be nice to be given some focus in the Transfer FAQ, for Groups.io noobs like me.I had added it on Nov 12. But I just bulleted the list of items transferred for emphasis since it was obviously overlooked!
