Update:
They have increased the number of posts seen while browsing our new site (
https://efloraofindia.com/) from 10 (currently) to say 20 at a time.
They are unable to show *posts *(pages which have text and images)
*alphabetically* (and not as per the date of creation of posts as currently
seen) while browsing the site and show search results on basis of the
heading of the posts (and not as per the date of creation of posts as
currently seen) as it appears there is no such provision in their 'Hero
theme' used for this site.
Problems may mainly arise in finding a post (page) mainly where matching
results are more than 20 e.g. in the case of Acanthus.

But I found that this can be solved in two different ways:
1. I found there is a very good feature in this iste (not available in the
earlier google site). In the site (https://efloraofindia.com/), it shows 20
matching words while typing in the search box. e.g. when I typed
'Acanthus', it showed 20 matching words including 'Acanthus volubilis',
'Acanthus spinosus?' etc. When I increased words in the search from
'Acanthus' to 'Acanthus vo', it showed one matching word 'Acanthus'.
On selecting 'Acanthus', I got my desired genus post with comparative
images and other details as below:
https://efloraofindia.com/2011/01/31/acanthus/

2. I searched on efloraofindia.com + acanthus in Google and got this at the
top:
https://efloraofindia.com/2011/01/31/acanthus/

I think there is no use in delaying the takeover of the site from them, as
I have to make all the changes in the new site that I have done in the
Google site in the past 45 days or so. And that itself may take about a
month along with learning how to do all this in the WordPress environment.
During this period my normal activity on the google groups will be
disrupted and there will be a long backlog (of updation of group
discussions on the new site) when I am able to assume my normal group work.
I hope we are able to come back to normalcy within the next four to five
months.
