  Can I publicize to a specific Facebook group, rather than to my Timeline?

  I am approaching it like an “add” to FB Sharing, but it seems to only default to my home page. Can I ADD another FB location, such as a specific group? I really don’t want All my friends to see my blog reference, just those for whom it’s directly relevant.

  Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Robin! Facebook doesn’t allow for auto-posting to group pages, unfortunately. You can only set up WordPress.com Publicize to go to your Facebook account or to a page (such as a fan page).

  If you’d like to add a Facebook page so your entire contact list doesn’t see your posts, you can do so:
  https://www.facebook.com/pages/create/

  I hope this helps. Wishing you the best!

  Is there a way to get the short link to a post without sharing it on FB or another platform?

  Thanks,
  Robin

  Certainly! If you open up your desired published post in Posts → All Posts, you’ll find your short link here:

  Thanks Robin :)
