Setting a different Forum Language

Although we are all discussing here in English, some people here may not be native English speakers and may have difficulty understanding all of the menus and instructions in English. So far, the Minutus forum could only be operated in one language: British English.  You can now use the forum in the...

How to sort YahooGroup Archive Topics into new Categories

Once a YahooGroup has been migrated to a Forums.Group forum, all the messages can be found in one archive section . The beauty of forums is the ability to have a separate section (category) for each aspect of your group's discussion points. Once you have defined all the categories, we recommend you ...

Re: Improving the Membership List

Roger, let me briefly explain the problem. Each member on the forum should only have only one account that gives that member access to all the messages they have written in the past. That is working for members that always used the same email address. There are however about 700 members who posted w...

Improving the Membership List

During the migration process of your YahooGroup into your new forum, we concentrated heavily on being able to fully restore your message archives while the membership list was seen as just a transfer from the current YahooGroup. In the end, the current Members list is mainly made up of those that ha...

Updating the Member List after Migration

During the migration of your archives and member list from YahooGroups and groups.io, the transfer of the members did not work perfectly and we are still working on correcting this. In this post, I am going to explain the problems and how we are working on fixing this. As part of the process, our ai...

Email Censorship and the Daily Digest

In the past few days, I was surprised to find I was not receiving the Daily Digest via the YahooGroup. I could see from the logs that it had been sent out (except Sunday, there were no new posts to send), yet they were not showing up in my inbox. I spent the weekend trying to work out what was wrong...

How to Get Started, on the Minutus Forum

I am still seeing messages being sent to minutus@forums.group from people who think they can post that way.  While we are working on a project to make it possible to post via Email, we are several weeks away from that being implemented and it is currently only possible to post on the forum or with t...

How to post with Links and Attachments

Hi, just thought it would be a great idea to explain how to post links and attachments. Posting Links: If you want to link to something, always use the Link tool that looks like the number 8 on its side https://forums.group/pictures/ext/link.gif . Links can be website addresses (URLs), other parts o...

Reposting YahooGroups posts to groups.io will now stop

While people were still posting individual messages to the Minutus YahooGroup, I setup a redirect so that all those individual posts would be sent to groups.io for archiving.  Since then, individual posts to the YahooGroup have now ceased and the redirect is no longer needed as now only the Daily Di...

As the Minutus Group is not posting here, I will be Moving On.

Be pioneers and start using the new forum for your discussions while I am still here to offer advice. Remember, I am planning to significantly withdraw my attention to this group in May. There is only so much attention I can give to a group that has stopped talking to each other for whatever reason....
