I created a secret group dealing with death announcements of classmates. Facebook says that, for these groups,: Secret: No public content. Members can see all content. Not displayed on members' profiles.
FOUR hours after posting on a supposedly secret group, the announcement show up on my homepage. What happened to "No Public Content"????

Hello,

Moved to group support

Where does it show up? Can you kindly provide a screenshot of the page it shows up in?

Tim,
It showed up on the homepage of my Facebook account exactly the way I posted it on the group wall. I cannot produce a screen shot, as I immediately removed the post due to the sensitive nature of the contents. Sorry.
There was a three hour lag before it show up on my home page.

While the stories show up & are visible to you, the stories shouldn't be visible to other members who are not part of the group.

The story showed up on my wall, which does give public access.

Also, is there a way to directly link two groups, or to create a sub-group within a group?

I appreciate your time and effort.

Your wall, as in on your profile page?

I don't believe that functinoality is available at this time; however you could post the link on your group. To share a link with your group, use the share menu at the top of the group.
