Facebook groups not showing

J_B

I'm a member of 20 groups on FB, but sadly of the three that I have 'pinned', all refuse to appear in my newsfeed.

My 'go to' place is on my W10 PC using Firefox and the FB Purity extension, but even on G Chrome with no extensions, and using the FB app on my Android phone … still no sign of my 'pinned' groups.

Other than asking for my money back 😉 are there any suggestions to get these to appear.

I'm having exactly the same problem. Endless posts in my feed from groups I've never heard of, but nothing from groups I'm a member of and /or have pinned. I have to keep going in search of them. Happens on both my phone and desktop

What you want to see and what Facebook wants you to see are two entirely different things.

There's a section on the left hand side on the website marked as Feeds, in there is a Groups feed. Its a bit bare but should show you what you want.

I know that, just thought that by 'pinning' it may have brought stuff to the top, but hey ho, it's their ball, they decide how to play with it!

Indeed it does …. just a somewhat convoluted way!

All pinning does is provide you with easier access to your groups; it has no effect on what you see from them (if anything) on your feed.

There is a Favourites option:

However by default like most of Facebook it has naff all effect by default as you still need to enter it as a Feed.
Ultimately though the home page feed is driven by what it thinks you want to see so perhaps train it - click the three dots and say you're not interested. Eventually it'll probably have no choice to show you your group contents if you tell it you're not interested in everything else.

Problem I'm having with Facebook at the moment is lately when clicking on comments it returns absolutely nothing. It's set to 'most relevant' so apparently nothing is relevant. It's annoying to have to keep switching to all comments. Both pc and mobile.
