  • I have been having an issue with the “secret” group function on facebook.  Posts showing up in newsfeeds.  Anyone hear of a change that would affect the settings of the secret group function?

  • Hi Carla, @carlagoddard 

    Posts into “secret” groups are showing up in newsfeed, but only for members of that group. Is that your case? :)

  • No posts in the “secret” group are showing up in non members chat feed.  So if someone comments on a post in the secret group, it is showing up on the newsfeed of everyone that they are friends with and anyone subscribed to their personal profile.

  • Are you sure about that, @carlagoddard?  I am a member of many secret Facebook groups and have never had any posts that have ended up with people who aren’t in the group commenting on them or liking them.  
    I think the confusing thing is,  all of my secret groups posts appear in my own news feed. But the posts don’t go into the ticker and no one else can see them, they just show in the news feed to get more attention I guess.
