Your friends Newsfeed, and whether you appear in theirs, is based on your privacy settings. If you post in a Closed Group, only members of the Group, can see it, and if you have some friends in that Group, and you allow friends to see your posts, then it will show on their newsfeed.

Similarly one may ask, how do I get my group posts to show up on news feed?

Facebook is Hiding Posts from You.

  1. On the Facebook homepage, click the drop-down arrow on the top right and select "News Feed Preferences".
  2. Select "Prioritize who to see first".
  3. Choose "Pages only" in the view options. You can then select the pages you wish to see first in your newsfeed through here.

Similarly, why is nobody seeing my Facebook group posts? Members aren't posting new content there, they don't react or share your content either. The only real activity in there is YOU posting updates, asking "engaging questions" and trying to drive engagement.

Similarly, can my FB friends see what I post in a public group?

Your group posts will still be published on your Timeline, but they will only be seen by other members of that closed group. In other words, your Facebook friends who aren't also members of that group (and members of the public at large) won't be able to see the posts you make in a closed group.

How do I stop my friends from seeing what I post in groups?

There is no setting in your profile that can stop your friends seeing the posts. The only way to make sure that no one except friends who are also in the group can see your group posts is to change the group setting to Closed. Obviously, a moderator will need to do this, if you're not the moderator.
