Delete Group Facebook
For more standard information about utilizing Facebook, see my short article on Facebook for business.
Why might I want to erase a Facebook group?
The reason I wanted to do this is that I had a group based around a basic election that there was no point keeping up with now. There are lots of reasons you might wish to delete a group, though-- it might have got out of hand, you might not have time to run it, it may be time-dependent and out of date, like my one was.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 sufficient time, consider making someone else the Admin for the group-- you can see the best ways to do that in the future in this post, also.
Note, you do need 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 get rid of all of the members, then yourself. This makes the group disappear.
In your group, locate its Members area:
Click on 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 rather.
Facebook will ask you to validate.
Do this for each member of the group.
Last but not least, remove yourself from the group in the very same method. You will get this verification message:.
This is the very same error message whether you're just leaving the group or you're the last to leave-- simply pick Leave Group.
The group needs to now vanish. If it does not, your best option is to contact Facebook. Click the arrow marked here:.
and choose Report a Problem from the dropdown.
