Transfer two Yahoo groups to one GIO group?

#transfer #yahoo

Su All Messages By This Member #19139 Can two Yahoo groups archives be transferred into one Groups.io group? Logically, one is a subgroup of the other, but we no longer actively use the subgroup. I am wondering if it is possible to combine the archives together by transferring one and then the other to the same GIO group. Thanks, Su
Shal Farley Member Profile All Messages By This Member #19144 Su, Can two Yahoo groups archives be transferred into one Groups.io group? Yes, just transfer one then the other. The messages will get distinct ranges of message numbers, with the second transfer beginning at a higher number than the last message of the first. That doesn't matter for most purposes as the sort for display of messages and topics is based on the date - which copies with each message from the Yahoo Group. However when viewing a message there are < (Previous) and > (Next) buttons which go in numeric order. There is no way to renumber the messages.

Roger Colwell All Messages By This Member #19885 Thanks for confirming that it's possible to transfer two into one ... Can I ask what happens when there are members of both groups, are they duplicated if the email addresses/names are identical in both groups, please? TIA, Roger

An email address is only added once to the main group.

Roger Colwell All Messages By This Member #19984 Many thanks, Duane, that's great! Can I also ask what happens with email addresses if one of the transferred groups is installed as a subgroup; might there be duplicates then, please? TIA, Roger
Chromatest J. Pantsmaker #19994 The duplicated email address would be subscribed to both subgroups, but appear only once in the main group. That would be the same for a brand new member who joined your Gio group and then two subgroups.
