Delete Facebook Group
For more fundamental details about utilizing Facebook, see my article on Facebook for business.
Why might I wish to delete a Facebook group?
The factor I wanted to do this is that I had actually a group based around a general election that there was no point keeping up with now. There are lots of reasons you might desire to erase a group, though-- it may have left hand, you may not have time to run it, it may be time-dependent and out of date, like my one was.
If it's a matter of not having adequate time, think about making somebody else the Admin for the group-- you can see how to do that in the future in this post, too.
Keep in mind, you do have to be the owner or administrator of the group to erase it.
How do I delete a Facebook group?
To erase a Facebook group, you have to get rid of all the members, then yourself. This makes the group go away.
In your group, find its Members location:
Click the Members link and here you are with your list of members:.
For each member, click the cog under the member's name and click Eliminate from Group. Note that this is where you can make them an Admin instead.
Facebook will ask you to confirm.
Do this for each member of the group.
Lastly, remove yourself from the group in the exact same way. You will get this confirmation message:.
This is the same mistake message whether you're simply leaving the group or you're the last to leave-- simply choose Leave Group.
The group should now vanish. If it doesn't, your finest bet is to get in touch with Facebook. Click the arrow marked here:.
and select Report a Problem from the dropdown.
