Unable to add members to a group

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

One of the groups I have, aptaacutecareeducatorrehab, is not able to allow additional members. This is posted on the homepage of this group:

Subscribe: [email protected] (disabled because this group cannot add any more members).

?

I cannot figure out where I can change the number of members allowed for this group. Perhaps I did not set this up correctly?

?

Any advice or direction you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

?

Thank you!

It looks like it's a free group, which means it's limited to 100 members. To add more you would have to upgrade to a paid group, or remove some existing members.

As Pete said, you've hit the limit for Basic groups. To upgrade to Premium, see /newhelpcenter/manual/ownersmanual/groupprocedures/group_upgrading.htm?

Minimum price is $20/month, or $220/year. Preexisting groups cannot get the 90-day trial.

Thanks for your quick responses!

I¡¯m thinking I may not understand how to add groups. My original group is Premium and then I added other groups under this one. All of the other groups have more than 100 members. Is there information about adding additional groups that I could review?

?

Thanks so much!

You don't add groups, you add subgroups of the main/paid group.

I did a search of "APTA." As best I can tell, none of the 7 groups I found is Premium, but some of them are legacy Basic. Of those, only the Montana group at has subgroups.
?
The group aptaacutecareeducatorrehab was created later - on 08/16/22 - so it is not legacy Basic, and is subject to the current pricing structure (i.e.: no more than 100 members unless paid).
?
By "legacy", I mean that older groups have been grandfathered with features that newly-started groups do not have (without paying).?

All of the other groups have more than 100 members.
Well, not all of them, but some.

Is there information about adding additional groups that I could review?
Any new groups will be subject to the new pricing structure, so simply adding more groups won't fix your problem at aptaacutecareeducatorrehab.
?
If you want to use one of your legacy groups and make all the others subgroups off that, everyone in the subgroup has to be in the main group, too. This often leads to subscription management difficulties and misdirected posts and is probably not what you're looking for; although some people seem to make it work.
?
Please also note that there is no provision to migrate one of your existing groups to a subgroup. You would be starting from scratch.

[ADDED NOTE: Checking more thoroughly, only the Montana group is old enough to have legacy subgroups (before 1/15/2020). You won't be able to add subgroups to any of the others without paying.]
