I am trying to create a community on facebook but think I am going the wrong way about it in terms of pages and groups...

Here is my facebook page here

https://www.facebook.com/nursetalknursetalk

I am logging in with my regular facebook account then switching to nursetalk, and this page is where i am.

I am trying to create a group which I thought I did, but when logged in as nursetalk there is not an option on the left to create a group.

If i return to using my account with my own name, the groups option appear and it seems that I have actually created a (very small!) group. for some reason though I am not the admin, and there doesnt seem to be an actual admin. I log back in as myself and the groups appear, here is the link

https://www.facebook.com/groups/1465249710378896/

BUT when I go to this page it says I have posts pending, but no option to approve them?

Anyone care to help me out and tell me what I am doing wrong??Something smackingly obvious I bet but i cannot see the woods for the trees here!!

Any help would be appreciated

Kind regards

Alan

    Hello, Alan! Indeed, as a "page" you cannot create a group. Only if you are a user you can. About the problem that you have already created the group but you are not the admin, this is really peculiar. Even more, since there is no other admin. The group itself has a weird interface, the top pictures are practically cut, so there might be a bug. Try a Facebook debugger software and maybe you will succeed. So the problem is not with what you do, apparently. Good luck!

    Hello, as said by TripleScan you can only create a group as a user, and not as a page.Groups are basically designed for interaction between different people and not business- bummer

    As for your other problem, contact Facebook support, they may be able to help you out.
