How Do I Add Admin on a Facebook Group?

Published in Facebook Group Admin 3 mins read

To add an admin to your Facebook group, you'll need to navigate through your group's settings and member list. The process involves finding the specific member you wish to promote and then assigning them the admin role.

Here are the steps to follow based on the provided reference:

  1. Access Your Group: Tap the menu icon (often three lines) in the top right of Facebook. Then, tap on Groups and select the specific group where you want to add an admin.
  2. Go to Group Management: Once inside your group, look for and tap Manage.
  3. Find Settings: Below the "Settings" section within the "Manage" area, tap Your settings.
  4. Navigate to Member Information: Tap Group info, and then proceed to tap on Members or People to view the list of group members.
  5. Select the Member: Tap the name of the person you want to make an admin from the list.

After tapping the name of the person, you will typically see their profile information within the context of the group. From this view, Facebook provides options related to their membership. The final step, which follows the information provided, is to locate and tap the option that allows you to "Make Admin" or assign them a similar role. You may also have the option to make them a moderator, which has fewer permissions than an admin but can still help manage the group.

Promoting someone to an admin gives them significant control over the group, including the ability to approve posts, remove members, edit group settings, and even remove other admins (including the person who made them admin, unless they are the original creator). Ensure you trust the person you are promoting.

Summary of Steps:

Step Action Location within Group

2 Tap Manage Top of group page
3 Tap Your settings Below Settings
4 Tap Group info, then Members or People Within settings
5 Tap the name of the person Member list
6 Find and tap the option to Make Admin On member's profile

(Note: Step 6 is the final action required after following the steps outlined in the reference.)

By following these steps, you can successfully add a new administrator to your Facebook group, sharing the responsibility of managing the community.
