How to Make Your Post Shareable From Your Facebook Profile?

By following the below steps accordingly you can make any post shareable from your Facebook profile on a desktop, or laptop:

• From your Facebook homepage (also called Newsfeed) start the process by clicking on ‘What’s on your mind?’. Instead, you can also start live streaming, or upload photos or videos to share directly. Your feelings or activities can also be shared directly from that toolbar.
• Sharing anything from there is also called a ‘Post’ share.

• Once you tap on ‘What’s on your mind?’ A box will pop up with a spaced area where you can write and talk about anything and share. Besides below are the options to share any sort of attachments like photos, videos, PDFs, locations, GIFs, or even can tag anybody with that post share.

• Furthermore, you’ll find the drop-down option with whom you want to share the posts. Clicking on Public will make the post shareable to anyone in your whole Facebook community. Selecting Friends will make the post viewable only for your friends in the Facebook list. Moreover, to make the post more personalized there are options like Friends except…, Specific friends, Custom, and Close friends. However, sharing through ‘Only me’ will make the post shareable to only you (i.e. no one will see your post).

• Now tap ‘Done’ your post will be shared from your profile.

The ‘Custom’ and ‘Close friends’ option is to increase the range of personalization of your post’s share.

How to make Facebook Group’s posts shareable

To make your Facebook group posts shareable– the first thing is whether your group is public or not. As long as your Facebook group is public, any group members can share that post if the security settings of your group are made public. No posts will be shareable outside the group if it’s a private Facebook group.

Let’s see the step-by-step procedure for making a post shareable in a public Facebook group:

• Go to your public Facebook group and share a post.

• By default the posts in Public Facebook groups are shareable. So, anyone who is a member of the group can easily share the post by clicking on the ‘Share’ button.

• Once you go to the Newsfeed of your Facebook page, you’ll find the ‘What’s on your mind?’ option. From there you can share anything from your page.

• Furthermore, keep scrolling down until you find the post you are trying to share from your page. Now just tap on the ‘Share’ option at the bottom right corner of the post.

All the posts on your Facebook Page wall are permanently set to the security level of ‘Public’. It’s a default setting by the Meta. So a post from your page can be shared by anyone who has access to the page.
