I am a moderator on a recently imported Yahoo Group, We don't allow "Delete Message" to regular members, Not even their own message.
The Hamburger More Menu at the bottom of messages on the web site allows a "Delete Message" option?
Question: How can I inhibit this option?
It causes serious difficulty for the archive of messages that has been running since the late 1990's. An archive of over 100,00 messages - each one "carefully stored and protected",
I've looked at settings and in this group's messages and can find no mention. Can anyone show me where this might be possible. I am happy that Moderator can delete messages, That's fine.
To preempt any queries I confirm that we really really do want to avoid members deleting their own messages.
Thanks for looking.
Have you tested to see whether you can see delete message in this group?
I just looked at Beta (I am a member there only), and I don't see the dropdown menu below a message.
A test worth doing!
