How to share to a group on Facebook?

3 replies [Last post]

I have been trying to share to one of my groups on FB, but this does not work.
I fill in all details including the name of the group, but when clicking on "Share" I get an error message saying I have to add a recipient = name of group.

Why can I not share to my group? Any ideas?

regards,
Håkan

I'm not sure, but where you can post something to the wall of a group you would have to post the link to a preview page in order to make the video show up on the wall of a group.

I must say that sometimes I find the Facebook UI a bit confusing here, so it takes me a couple of tries to find things too in the Facebook UI sometimes (also because it constantly changes).

I've had the same problem, but only with a group I created since I installed Timeline... my other groups are recognised when I want to share a video, but my new group does not appear in the dropdown box etc. My group can be found on Facebook (since I changed it from Secret to Closed) so I know it's active. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is something Facebook specific. What should always work is if you go to the group in Facebook, then choose to post on the wall of that group, and then enter the preview page of the video as the link that you wish to share to the group.
