It appears that there was a one-day restriction on my FB account at the beginning of February this year which prevents me from sharing to groups or feeds. It hasn't been lifted.
I've just tried to contact FB (Meta) but not holding out much hope of getting through to anyone
I've just check on a previous version and it's as above, so it's not specific to XF versions
I'm wondering if it's a limitation imposed on my FB acount
Yes it seems that way.
It was a great function to push snippets of posts from the forum to the facebook group which in turn pulled traffic in from the FB group to the forum. Keeping the two connected
Well I've tried all the options and the facility no longer appears to be there....
- Click the Facebook share link on XenForo
- Pop-up opens as such.....
- The only options to share are to other people or on my Public profile, not to any specific groups I manage...

Until recently if you shared to Facebook you had the option to share to a Group whioch worked well for pulling traffic back into the forums.
Now that option seems to have disappeared.....
The only options now are to share publicly, or to friends via various filters.
I've seen several referrals to US and EU based servers - is there an upside or downside if you use a server from a different region?
I'm based in the UK, hosted (currently) in the UK, with a site predominantly used by people in the UK.
