Commissioner should be able to edit a lineup after the game has started
Have found myself in countless situations where this was needed. If for whatever reason there is a mega emergency and someone is unable to set a lineup (ie: hospital, engagement, work, life) we give them permission to text in the chat (before any of the games have started) that if player x doesn't play then he would like to start player y. This can help ensure that if someone misses a time for an important reason That they fairly knew who they would start had they had the opportunity. The problem is that while this is nice theoretically, yahoo only…

Custom Trade Deadlines
The earliest possible trade deadline allowed on the website is in February, this is like in the middle of the second to last matchup of my season. Because basketball leagues are now ending earlier to avoid the late regular season, it makes sense to have earlier trade deadlines, too. I am having to manually enforce a mid-january deadline instead of relying on yahoo's settings.
Thank you for your feedback regarding wanting to set your league's trade deadline to be earlier. We will pass it along to our team!

Provide the commissioner with an ability to block certain players from being drafted or picked up once the season starts
Our basketball league has chosen to only contain players outside of the top 30. I.e., we want to eliminate the top 30 players from our league. My research indicates there is no ability for the commissioner to remove those players from our league so after the league starts, if a manager wants to pick up a player they so those 30 players along with every other player. It makes it very difficult to manually manage that.
I understand we maybe could have set up a dummy set of teams to put those players on but then I don’t know if…
Thank you for your feedback regarding providing commissioners with an ability to block certain players from being drafted or added. There is no setting that allows you to do this, but we appreciate your feedback regarding this and we will pass it along to our team!

Please add an option where we can filter which specific level of managers can join our league.
Please add a filter or an option where we can set a filter in the settings which specific managers we want to join our leagues (diamonds,platinum, gold etc.)
We as managers find it hard and requires alot of manual labor/work to keep kicking/deleting members/players we dont desire in our league. the user level/rank filter that filter members who can join would be so much helpful if we have that options to select from. We can select when we create a league we can put only diamond level can join our league. It will make our lives as commissioners very easy.…

Add SG/SF and PF/C Flex Position Option for Custom Leagues
Please allow custom leagues the option to use SG/SF (wing) and PF/C (big) as roster requirements. I see you added "frontcourt (FC)" this year, which is a step in the right direction, but is still too broad like the Util position and is not what we asked for. Are you just trying to mess with us now because we've been asking for flex positions for the last 8 years? Please add Wing (SG/SF) and Big (PF/C) as roster options in custom leagues. Trying to get this feature has taken years of my life.
Thanks for your suggestion. I will share that with our product team.

start active players
Would make life a lot easier if Commissioners can also get the "start active players for the entire week" function for all teams in the league, instead of editing the rosters day-by-day.

Weekly injured
For weekly lineups, injuries can sway a matchup quite considerably. Injury prone players or load management in today's NBA has caused our league issues with players such as Lebron, Kawhi, Embiid, etc.
Any thoughts on implementing an x amount of bench swaps for players in lineups that are tagged O or INJ? Players swapped out cannot be swapped back in as well?

What, exactly, would happen if I changed the weekly transaction deadline to Weekly On Tuesday?
What, exactly, would happen if I changed the weekly transaction deadline to Weekly On Tuesday? Could we add a player on Monday and put him into the weekly matchup immediately without waiting a week? Would lineups become editable on both Monday and Tuesday, or just Tuesday? Would players lock for the week at tip-off of their first game? The Yahoo help pages give very little detail as to how this would work.
Hello,
If you need technical assistance with the weekly deadline in your league, please contact us through the sports tab at help.yahoo.com, @YahooFantasyCC on X, or r/YahooFantasy on Reddit.
