How do I get RID of Yahoo "neo" ?

Echo Sanders: I did try several times to type the url in MINUS the /neo/ part and it ALWAYS rewrote my old url to the /neo/ version. So I can assure you that doesn't do it, even if I type it manually.

1 missing feature is attachments to emails appear to be lost.

Editing the "info" page that replaced the home page I finally found, but can't see how to imbed the photos honoring member dogs in the group, so THAT is lost unless you can tell me how to do it.

ALSO: I can't be sure if the membership list is lost, but I don't recall finding it.

AND: The format for the photo albums doesn't allow me to look at a LIST of albums and sort it as needed.

I agree that the email /neo/ version is ok once you get over the shock of the change, but I disagree with the shock of the changes in the /neo/ version of groups. It's sluggish. When I click on things, they do NOT work. I tried to join a new group and it didn't respond to the join button. When I tried

black_gsd - that's a great suggestion... Hopefully Echo Sanders will request to join my group using a /neo/ link.

black_gsd - I wouldn't chide Yahoo spell check for telling you my name is misspelled because it's an extremely unusual name and wouldn't be in most name lists.

I'm learning more about the changes from /neo/ because my husband is letting me login to his Yahoo account on his computer to compare.

BOTTOM LINE: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" - Sometimes Yahoo wants to change things that are working well, and all it does is cause discontent.

Todd - I agree with it being clumsy and making moderation difficult to impossible. I agree that it appears to me to be a kludge. I agree that reversion to the prior "classic" version should be made easy for us to do.

And you reminded me that I've been a moderator over 10 years now, and an owner almost 10 years so I'm not a greenhorn either.

Yahoo once had and supported a Yahoo Moderator Forum but it let it become very inactive.

Shalf - you make a good point about Yahoo doing the change by account rather than by group. My group has responded with confusion as those who responded saw the group the same as it was before. And I have not heard yet if any others were seeing the /neo/ version. Not seeing the group website the same as all group members see it is a handicap.

While I agree with you that I need an easy way to click back and forth between "classic" and /neo/ I ALSO need an EASY WAY to report to a responsive member of Yahoo staff so I can give them viable feedback on the problems I see. I am an experienced beta tester of other types of software, and could help them find the bugs instead of subecting unsuspecting Yahoo members to painful experiences as mine has become.

I also don't like the awkwardness this causes me as a group owner.

I am very grateful for the quality responses I am receiving.... even from Echo, who has received some thumbs-down. Echo's reply is one of the few positive Yahoo responses I have had from any staff at Yahoo when I have had problems. Usually they just ignore complaints. Hopefully Echo will continue to try to assist me by providing me an email address or url where I can give feedback on the problems and get viable assistance.

EVER SINCE /NEO/ WAS ACTIVATED ON ME - When I answer questions in Yahoo Answers, most of the time clicking on [submit] only gives me a blank white screen, and I have to back up and click [submit] again... sometimes more than once before my answer is submitted. This NEVER happened until /neo/ was activated on my ID for my group access.

Echo, THANK YOU for the added response. Attachments being under files is NOT intuitive, so most moderators won't find it without staff intervention and help. You need more staff members to deal with all the confusion you've created.

Membership ONLY refers to my own. Members are found under Management pull-down menu. and in the lower left corner of that "generic image" I can click on "members" next to the restricted group text to see the member list.

The Generic Image IS NOT EDITABLE!

Photo albums appear in a tab to the right of Photostream as you say, but only God and Yahoo staff understand what Photostream is or means. Albums are ONLY sortable by oldest / newest and not allowed to be shown in LIST format instead of a photo, and not sortable by oldest uploads / newest uploads or by alphabetical list of names of author, or by alphabetical list of names of the albums. SERIOUS DOWNGRADE of functionality.

You really should tell management they need a li

AMAZEMENT! TIME TO REJOICE ! TODAY MY LINK TAKE ME TO THE CLASSIC VIEW OF ALL MY GROUPS AND THE DAMNABLY FLAWED /NEO/ VERSION IS GONE!

THE OTHER SHOE JUST DROPPED. I WOKE UP THIS MORNING TO FIND I'M BACK ON THE /NEO/ VERSION OF GROUPS. IT FUNCTIONS BETTER BUT -NOT- GOOD ENOUGH.
