A long wait is now over, a virtual high-five to all our valuable members out there.
Facebook Groups publishing is now Live. All our members can now have access to Facebook group content, such as posts, photos, and videos, and also you can publish content to the group on behalf of the admin.
But before you start with the posting there is one very important thing you need to know.
App Installation:
This is the first and foremost task that you need to fulfill if you want to publish to Facebook Groups is:
Our ViralDashboard Facebook Developer App must be installed in your Facebook Group.
Note: Only group admins can add or remove an app in a group.
To know how to add an app to a Facebook Group you can follow the below-mentioned guide: https://www.facebook.com/help/261149227954100
Please refer to the image below to know more about our Facebook Developer App.
After you add our app to your group, you’re ready to publish content to your group from ViralDashboard.
Step by Step Guide:
- Connect your Facebook Group from the Social Media Connect page.
- After a successful connection, you’ll be able to see your FB Groups on the page.
- Now go to the Content Composer page and create a post.
- Click on the Next step, Select the particular Facebook Group and then click on the Next button.
- Customize the post if required and then click on the Next button.
- Now just Publish, Schedule, or Save to Draft as per your wish.
- To manage your posts you can go to the Post Manager.
Please note: Only those groups will get connected again and again to our ViralDashboard app which you give permission the very first time you connect your Facebook group.
Let me explain to you by example: If you have 10 groups and when you connect your Facebook Group to ViralDashboard the very first time you gave permission and connected only 5 groups. Then the next time if you want to connect any more groups then it will not be possible until and unless you remove the Group integration from the Apps and Websites page available in the Settings page of your Facebook account.
You can follow the below guide to know more about removing the app that you’ve added on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/help/170585223002660
Now once you’ve removed the app, go to Connect Facebook Group page on ViralDashboard. Disconnect the previously connected Facebook Groups and then Re-Connect. Select the groups again and then connect them to ViralDashboard.
This is how Connecting, Publishing, and Removing App works in Facebook Groups in ViralDashboard.
