Facebook group post says “Published” but disappears – anyone else?

Hi, may I know if anyone else is facing this issue?

When I post in Facebook groups (both anonymous and non-anonymous), the system shows "Post published successfully", but the post never appears in the group.

Sometimes it shows for a short moment and then disappears without any notice.

It’s not being deleted, and there’s no sign of it going into review – it just vanishes like it never existed.
This happens more often with anonymous posts, but lately, even regular posts are affected.
Could this be a Facebook bug, or is my account possibly restricted in some way?

Appreciate if anyone can share their experience. Thanks!
It is happening so often either group restrictions or facebook restriction some keywords may seems suspicious or don't match community guides
 
Its the Admin Assist who removed your post cause it got hit by certain criteria to get declined

Yes, I’ve experienced the same issue recently. It usually happens when Facebook silently limits account reach or flags group activity as spam. Try switching to a different IP or browser, and avoid links or patterns that may trigger filters.
 
I have had this happen to me too. It could be that the group admin deleted your post. In many groups, you have to pay the admin a certain amount of money to have your post appear in the group.
 
Yepp, seen this happen too. Usually tied to shadow restrictions or FB ghosting the post. Try switching accounts or posting via mobile vs desktop to test
 
Did you check this part to see if it shows or not? If no, then the moderator may delete it

Yes, I’ve seen this happen before - usually when the account or group has hidden restrictions. Sometimes it’s a shadowban, especially for new profiles or when posting too frequently. Try switching to a trusted profile and avoid links or flagged keywords.
 
maybe the group admin tried to delete your post, there are many groups we need to pay for posting

It usually happens when the account or post content is flagged by Facebook’s invisible filters. Even though it says “Published,” the post gets shadow-blocked. Using trusted, aged profiles and avoiding flagged content types can help. You might want to test from another account or rotate your IP/browser setup to see if it persists.
I think the problem is not that complicated.
 
I think contacting the group admin will be more helpful than contacting fb support, my friend.
This issue can happen due to Facebook’s automated spam filters or temporary bugs; your posts might be hidden or auto-removed without notice, especially in large groups or with anonymous posts—check if your account has restrictions, try posting in smaller groups, or report the problem to Facebook support.

Problems you're having with posts in Facebook groups can be caused by a number of different things. Here are some common reasons and solutions you can try:

1.Group policies: Some groups have strict rules about what you can post. If your post doesn't follow these rules, it may be deleted without notice.

2.Content moderation: Some groups use moderation to review posts before they go public. This can cause your post to not appear immediately or disappear after a while.

3.Account restrictions: If your account has been restricted by Facebook in the past (for example, for policy violations), this may affect your ability to post.

4.Technical errors: Sometimes, Facebook can encounter technical errors that prevent posts from appearing properly.
 
I also encountered the situation of posting to a Facebook group and it said "Posted successfully" but the post disappeared. This could be a Facebook error or a setting in that group. Try contacting the group admin. Could it be that your account has been secretly banned?
 
Hi, i have chwck the content but after 1 second will be disappear. No only one group . This is have many group like this. Admin no very fast to disappear. I think the facebook system operator
Well, maybe it was auto-deleted. Some groups can set up restricted keywords. Have you tried changing the post content?

The issue often comes from a shadowban or automatic group filters, even if Facebook doesn’t show any warning.
Posts may disappear due to high activity, suspicious content, or simply a platform bug.
To check: try using another account, contact a group admin, vary your content, and temporarily reduce your posting frequency.
 
I’ve noticed the same issue—posts disappearing without explanation. Could be a Facebook glitch or temporary restriction
