One thing I'm stuck on though is closing down the old Yahoo groups without?fully deleting them. There appears to be a way to set "Only moderators can post messages" but that option seems to be missing?for all of my groups. Any tips?
I think I just did this with a few of my old groups.
Go to this URL:
https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/YOURGROUPNAME/members/all
and sort by something unchanging, e.g. join date.
Then select some members and click Actions > Change delivery settings > No Email, or Actions > Set posting privileges > Override - can't post messages.
You can't perform these actions on more than about 50 messages at a time (you can select more at a time, but it doesn't apply it to all selected).
There is no easy way to tick the tickboxes (or check the checkboxes) for all members.? I used a little AutoIt script (I use it with Vivaldi browser):
Sleep ("2000")
For $i = 1 to 50
Send ("{SPACE}")
Sleep ("100")
Send ("{TAB 2}")
Sleep ("200")
Next
