Facebook groups: FB publishes my posts (text + link to YT videos) as items for sale by mistake

I've been trying to post some Youtube videos to groups, as I've been doing successfully for over a year. My posts contain some text and a link to a video. I’m not selling anything.

However, for the past few days, my posts get published as an item for sale instead.

I used Google Chrome and Internet Explorer on my computer. I also tried posting to several groups, but the problem persists and I had to delete the posts.

I contacted Facebook help a few times, but they haven't replied.

Any suggestions please?

Click on the post settings and change it to a discussion post instead.

Many thanks. I'll try that.

I clicked on Edit Post, but Facebook doesn't give me the option to change the post type. I can only edit the description, price, condition, etc.
But it's still an item for sale rather than just a discussion post.
Any further suggestions please?
Many thanks.
