Question

How can i add my group into yahoo directory?

Answer 1

You have two opetions..go to the Management  and then click on Description and hit edit and scroll down to the very bottom and this is what you will see:

Listing Type:     Listed in Yahoo! Groups directory

Not                    Listed in Yahoo! Groups directory  

You can change it any time you like ..

Answer 2

If you chose not to list it when you started the group, you cannot change it now.  Seems foolish but I'm quite sure unless  Yahoo has changed their policy, you are  stuck.  If you don't have too many members, you could start a new group with a slightly different name   and ask the current members to join,  and this time select for it to be listed.

Answer 3

actually, I just tested this- if you have a closed/ invite only group, you cant reverse that nor be listed in the directory. But if you have a restricted or open membership group,  you can change back and forth all day long to being listed to unlisted.

the poster did not state which type of group this is, or if it was newly created. many time people think that a new group shows up right away in the directory but it doesn't.

either way, here's the How To:

management- under group settings click description and appearance- description (edit) <-- click the edit- scroll down to

Listing Type

* Listed in Yahoo! Groups directory <---

* Not listed in Yahoo! Groups directory

select listed- click save changes

REMEMBER after making this change, it takes yahoo's server a few days to update the pages
