How To Delete Group From Facebook
For more standard info about using Facebook, see my post on Facebook for business.
Why might I wish to delete a Facebook group?
The factor I wished to do this is that I had a group based around a basic election that there was no point staying up to date with now. There are lots of reasons that you might desire to erase a group, however-- it may have got out of hand, you may not have time to run it, it might be time-dependent and out of date, like my one was.
If it's a matter of not having adequate time, consider making somebody else the Admin for the group-- you can see the best ways to do that later on in this post, as well.
Note, you do have to be the owner or administrator of the group to delete it.
How do I delete a Facebook group?
To delete a Facebook group, you have to eliminate all of the members, then yourself. This makes the group go away.
In your group, locate its Members location:
Click the Members link and here you are with your list of members:.
For each member, click on the cog under the member's name and click Remove from Group. Note that this is where you can make them an Admin instead.
Facebook will ask you to verify.
Do this for each member of the group.
Last but not least, remove yourself from the group in the very same way. You will get this verification message:.
This is the exact same error message whether you're just leaving the group or you're the last to leave-- simply choose Leave Group.
The group should now disappear. If it does not, your finest bet is to contact Facebook. Click the arrow marked here:.
and choose Report an Issue from the dropdown.
