How To Ban Members To Send Messages on WhatsApp Group

Restrict/Ban Members to Send/Post Messages On WhatsApp Group:- Facebook Owned WhatsApp has now finally launched one of the best features to ban group members from posting messages on WhatsApp Group. WhatsApp has provided the unique "Super Power" to the Group'Admins to restrict group members from posting irreverent messages, photos, links, videos etc.

If you were also the group admins of some "WhatsApp Group" and had been tired of warning to your group members against posting Gifs, Messages, Links, Voice messages etc without permission.

Being a group admin of a WhatsApp group. I had been tired of always reminding to the members that they are not allowed to send or post any links, messages, videos on that particular group which is nowhere related to the motive of the group which we have created for. But still, there are few members who are the culprits to spam the group for no reason. To ban such members from posting in the group.

You can use this feature name "Send Messages" which you can find in your Group Settings and then "Choose who can send messages to this group" and choose "Only Admins". By selecting this option only group admins will be able to post messages on WhatsApp Group.

WhatsApp has already rolled " Delete Messages For Everyone" feature that grant users to delete or revoke their messages before the time limit if the message was sent by mistake. By using this feature you can easily revoke your wrong sent messages. But as usual, we Indians try to juice up this feature by sending the messages and then delete it before reading those messages by the receiver to leave them in suspense.

However, apart from this funny thing WhatsApp Inc just introduced some features for group admins and naming it as "Admin Controls" where an Admin can restrict members to change the group description to the admin only. 

WhatsApp's Admin Controls" features give the admin a restricting power to stop the group members from posting. By using this feature an admin can easily restrict or ban group people/members to send any spammy links or photos and messages. Using the same method you can create a WhatsApp group where only admins can send messages. Soon this feature will be available on latest WhatsApp Update.
