Facebook Rolls Out New Tools To Help Admins Manage Their Facebook Groups

Source: Facebook Groups

Facebook rolled out new tools for Facebook Groups. Admins and moderators now have access to new tools including the ability to automatically decline posts that contain false information, suspend members for a specified amount of time from participating in conversations, and automatically approve or decline member requests based on specific criteria they set up. Additionally, admins can share their groups via QR codes or send invitations via email to invite people to their groups.

Using these new tools, admins and moderators can keep their communities safe by reducing misinformation, manage their communities more easily with automation, and grow their groups by giving people more ways to join and invite. Facebook Groups have become a powerful way for like-minded groups of people to connect and engage, however with that has come the spreading of misinformation. Some Groups have hundreds of thousands to millions of members, which require tools for content moderation.
