how to delete a facebook group 2011 on the new facebook fan pages application

how to delete a facebook group 2011 on the new facebook fan style pages applications, was something i was finding very difficult to achieve there are many online guides on how to do this but they will not work on my facebook group page, and i am sure this is true for other people as well.

(UPDATE LINK BELOW WORKED IT OUT, THERE IS FACEBOOK GROUPS AND THERE IS PAGES, MINE IS A FACEBOOK PAGE)

UPDATE WORKED IT OUT HOW TO DELETE THE FACEBOOK "PAGE" LINK

so i am quickly putting this post with another technique that might work if the other technique or way to delete a facebook group correctly is not working for you.

the problem i am having is when on my facebook group page, everyone says to delete the group first go to your top right of the page, and click on the words "see all".

on that page delete all members from your group, then when everyone is deleted from your group, you delete yourself last, this closes the facebook group fully.

this is great if this technique works for you, but when i go to the section called "see all" on my facebook group all it shows is me as the admin and does not show up my facebook members so i cannot delete them from the group this way.

so i found another way of deleting members, but they need to have posted on your facebook page, you delete there post and also delete and ban member when that option comes up, if you just delete there post, they are still members of your group and this means while you have members of your group you cannot delete the group if you just delete yourself, the group stays open and you lose administration status to alter the group.

so i am having a big problem because all the guides coming up on the internet just say to go to the top right of your facebooks groups homepage click on "see all" which should bring up a list of all the people who have joined your facebook page.

then simply delete and ban them all, lastly when you have done that delete yourself as admin and this closes the group, yet when i click see all on the page that follows it just shows me as the admin, so i am lost at the moment on how to delete this facebook page.

i will update this post when i work it out as i am sure other people are finding the same difficulty as me when it comes to deleting pages on facebook that you have created but then decide you want to delete it for whatever reason but then cannot.

and you need to delete it correctly because if you just delete yourself as admin and not all the other people in your facebook group, the page will stay open, yet you will not be able to change it anymore.

i will have to try and find how this deleting of groups and pages on the facebook website works correctly because at the moment it has perplexed me, and probably many others, even though i have read the guides that come up at the top of google search, when i looked for how to delete my groups none of the guides i have read so far are not helping me get the group deleted from my facebook account.

one option i thought of was at first if i cannot delete the group at the moment i can change the group at the least by taking away its name and taking down the picture i put up for the group on facebook at least this way less people will be joining it while i am working out how to delete the page from my facebook account.
