Re: Help with transfer of an "orphaned" Yahoo group #pgoffline

 

If you are to move only member email addresses, it can be done by downloading to Excel file and the copying the address column and uploading it. No need for any programs.

The best I can hope for is to capture the old messages, files and photos an place the in the Files and Photos sections of the new icom2kl group, but the members will not be transferred. There is a program "PGOffline" which will do this, but I have to buy the full version.

Cheers, Adam

Re: Help with transfer of an "orphaned" Yahoo group #pgoffline

Hi Jim,

Thanks! You have summed up my problem 100% accurately. I had failed to mention that I had invited [email protected] to become a member of the Yahoo group in question. Mark accepted the invitation, but now I am "stuck" because I cannot reach PA3DUV. He does not answer my e-mails, nor has he reacted to Yahoo's warnings.

The best I can hope for is to capture the old messages, files and photos an place the in the Files and Photos sections of the new groups.io icom2kl group, but the members will not be transferred. There is a program "PGOffline" which will do this, but I have to buy the full version.

Cheers, Adam

I just downloaded using PG4. Took a look at the database. I would like to know if anyone was successful in uploading the messages to GIO. To me $110 well worth the deal to get it done turnkey.

Use the "Notice Type" dropdown menu to select the type of notice

Re: Entering Repeating Calendar Events

ok. How do I set up an event for every other month?
Calendar
Click on "+Add Event"
(fill in "Event Name")
Make selections for the first occurrence of the Event in the "Date and Time" section
In the "Repeats" section:
Check the "Event Repeats" box
Select "Monthly" in the "Repeats" dropdown menu (below the "Event Repeats" box)
Select "2" in the "Repeat Every" dropdown menu
Choose either: "Repeat by day of the week" or "Repeat by day of the month"
(Make "Starts On" and "Ends" selections)
The "Repeat Summary" will say either:
Every 2 months on the <1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th> <name of Day of Week>
Every 2 months on day <number of day of month>


Also an event for the last Tuesday of the month (some months have 4 some have 5)
Groups.io currently doesn't recognize that there are 29 or 30 dates every year that are a 'fifth <day of the week>

I brought that up 2018.06.25



It was also brought up that some events' date are calculated as being x days before or after another date.
e.g. Federal Election Day in the United States is the Tuesday following the first Monday in November in even years
(1st Monday of November plus 6 days, repeats every 24 months)
(Some States also hold elections on that date every year, or every other but on odd years.)
2018.08.06

Unfortunately Groups.io hasn't fixed these oversights yet.
Maybe next year, after the great YahooGroups migration is over.... ;-}


Re: Incomplete Transfer

 

Wow,

Our experiences differ...when I try to log in to do anything, it gives an authentication error, even though it never has in the past, and all credentials are correct.? I have tried tens of times and no joy.

Actually, the program still works very well, it's YG that is dysfunctional.? Folks on the PGO forums are having various amounts of success.? Several have gotten everything after numerous attempts, especially files and photos.

You need to be clear with your terminology.? You can NOT upload messages to groups.io, you can upload a file containing the messages.? You'd also need to upload the attachments as files or photos.? Also, all photos and files will be owned by you, not the correct member.

Re: Question about transfer

 

So they are just assuming I have already heard back from them about the invitation.
OK makes sense, I will just wait, and wait.? LOL

Thank you,

Hi,

Before we can being the transfer, you must make the [email protected] user a moderator of your group. If you already have done so, please click the 'Give Go Ahead To Transfer' button again, as Yahoo can be flaky.

Well transfer has not accepted the invitation yet so I cannot make him a moderator. I emailed support letting them know I would love to give the go ahead but cannot until they accept it. I understand they are busy but maybe there is something else I need to do besides wait???

Re: Incomplete Transfer

 

Hi Duane,
Yeah, I used PGoffline for years as well, but it is now dysfunctional with YGs.
I took your advice and deleted the old transfer completed task and started a new one, this time only photos...I'll report back how it goes.
Thanks again to you and Chris for your advice, greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

Re: $110 transfer question about attachments.

 

I don't know if people remember, but yahoo wiped all saved attachments a few years ago so you wouldn't be getting anything from before that date (as I found out to my horror last night having completely forgotten that callous act)

Re: What about new members we are adding to our Yahoo Group right now?

 

I would guess that what you describe could result in a member being
added just after the transfer took place, since you can't know exactly
when that is going to happen. If it was me I would stop adding new
members to the Yahoo group. Instead directly add them to the new
Groups.io group.
