In this digital age, we use to manage various groups in social handles and especially on Facebook, \u00a0where many users want to advertise or post spams frequently. Usually, admins try to approve only appropriate posts. But sometimes it happens due to time constraints they missed to check all the posts for approval and in few days sometimes pending posts reached to large numbers and checking them and approving or deleting them one by one makes it very complicated and irritating task to do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, if you are in the same situation then this post is for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1. Log-in to your Facebook account and go to your group<\/strong>
Step 2. Go to your group pending list like: <\/strong>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/[group-id]\/pending\/
Step 3. Now “Right click” and select the “Inspect” <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"inspect\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Step 4. In the “Element” section find (use CTRL + F) class name for the “Decline” button<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Elements\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Step 5. Copy and paste that class name in the below code line number 13<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

var count_del = 0;\n\nvar count_confirm = 0;\n\n\n\nvar click_del = function () {\n\n\/\/button 'x' delete, class: img sp_WVlmwZ4PzbP sx_8019e2 | img sp_vPWoN8_ZzE7 sx_5cd324 | img sp_uBI2xAARzhd sx_812cfb | img sp_P3HKPeqx6sL sx_f56b15\n\n\n\nvar inputs_del = document.getElementsByClassName('img sp_WVlmwZ4PzbP sx_8019e2');\n\n\n\nfor(var i=0; i<inputs_del.length;i++) {\n\nif ( i == 10) { break; };\n\ncount_del++;\n\nconsole.log(\"Click Delete \" + count_del);\n\ninputs_del[i].click();\n\n};\n\n};\n\n\n\nvar click_confirm = function () {\n\n\/\/button 'Delete' to confirm delete this post\n\nvar inputs_confirm = document.getElementsByClassName('_42ft _4jy0 layerConfirm uiOverlayButton _4jy3 _4jy1 selected _51sy');\n\nfor(var i=0; i<inputs_confirm.length;i++) {\n\nif ( i == 10) { break; };\n\ncount_confirm++;\n\ninputs_confirm[i].click();\n\nconsole.log(\"Click Confirm \" + count_confirm);\n\n};\n\n};\n\n\n\nvar click_ok = function () {\n\n\/\/button 'Okay' when a post was deleted already\n\nvar inputs_confirm = document.getElementsByClassName('_42ft _4jy0 layerCancel uiOverlayButton _4jy3 _4jy1 selected _51sy');\n\nfor(var i=0; i<inputs_confirm.length;i++) {\n\nif ( i == 10) { break; };\n\ninputs_confirm[i].click();\n\nconsole.log(\"Click OK \");\n\n};\n\n};\n\n\n\nvar interval_del = setInterval( function () { click_del() }, 8000);\n\nvar interval_confirm = setInterval( function () { click_confirm() }, 3000);\n\nvar interval_ok = setInterval( function () { click_ok() }, 8000);\n\n\n\n\/\/clearInterval(interval_ok);\n\n\n\n\/\/automatically scroll down to the bottom of page - ref: http:\/\/bit.ly\/1O4tvHd\n\nvar interval_bottom_page = setInterval( function () { window.scrollTo(0,document.body.scrollHeight) }, 30000); ;<\/pre>\n\n\n\n

Step 6. Now go to console section and copy and paste the below code and HIT enter<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"console\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 7. Now leave until it deletes all the pending posts<\/strong>
