It's still working with a minor edit in 22nd line

I changed the value of variable "inputs_del" to '3-8 img sp_gYK8kt9aJ39 sx_7f156d' and it works just fine.

Thanks for this script.

Hey Guys,
I don't get it to work. Is it still working on your side?
Thanks for your help

Hey Guys,

Thanks for your help

Yes, this still works. You need to actually change the value img sp_WVlmwZ4PzbP sx_8019e2 (line 22) to your own class name. Right click from the pending page, https://www.facebook.com/groups/tagbilaranbuyandsell/pending and find the class name for the "decline" button. Mine is _3-8_ img sp_ojMFfRlPQwI_1_5x sx_ab0ac8

htdat, thanks for this :)

Thanks MrTrizaeron for your kind words.

Yes, you guys may need to look up the correct class value. It seems that Facebook changes it over time.

That's cool, thank you very much Mr Trizaeron, and thank a lot Htdat for having came up with this!

What about the unactive members of group? It is also a pain in this ass to do so...Would I be able to apply the same script to it and changing the value of the class?

I shall precise that having such a thing is great cause you can inscrease you engagment rate of your group by removing the unactive/disabled account.

Hello Htdat,
I am happy to give you 50 buck by principale if you can customize your script and help me delete all the inactive facebook group members.
Let me know thank you, that would be a great help!
Kind regard,
Arnaud

@skphantom - thanks for the offer. However, I am not able to work on it at the moment. If someone is able to do that, please help @skphantom.

I really created an account to say thanks a lot @htdat

It would be nice if you help us(group admins) with script to delete "all facebook group posts " or delete group posts with "searched keyword"

Once again thanks a lot buddy @htdat

function deleteButtons() {
	var recusar = document.querySelectorAll('.sx_67dd83');
    	recusar.forEach(btn => btn.click());
};

function confirmdelete() {
        //button 'Delete' to confirm delete this post 
  	var excluir = document.querySelectorAll('.layerConfirm'); 
    	excluir.forEach(btn => btn.click());
};    

var interval_del = setInterval( deleteButtons, 8000);
var interval_confirm = setInterval( confirmdelete, 3000);

@marcos635 so wat tis script do bro?

@jacksparrow5 The same thing as the htdat script, but in a simpler way.

@marcos635 Thanks buddy will check
is there any script to delete all "facebook group posts" with "specific keyword" search?

Hey Guys,
Is there someone able to customize this script and allow blocking member while deleting the pending post?
Cheers

Abandoned.

Hi all, I have not managed a FB group for a long time.
Feel free to discuss or write links to other solutions, however, I am not able to fix or modify my original script.

Hi htdat.
For some reason I can't find exactly the class for the deletion element.
FB code is getting increasingly obfuscated.

Any code that could remove all pending live videos would be of great help.
