How To Disable Facebook Share Button

If you post something on Facebook and would rather people not share it, you can always disable the share button so people can see it but not share it with their friends. In this video, I walk you through the steps you can take to turn off the sharing button on your posts. This can be done using each specific post or generally in the settings page of your Facebook app.
I hope this video helped solve your problem. Do you still have a question about this app? Leave a comment below!

Did this work for you? If so, give me a shoutout in the comments! No? 😥 Leave a comment with your issue and we'll figure it out together.

Nice video. How to stop posts from “auto sharing” to my other facebook account?

[@KitKatz_lovez]

No it doesn’t work.

[@bboopster942]

No, that doesn't work.

[@joeycarter8846]

Nope. Mine only gives the "Friends" option WITH "...and their friends." I only want to send to MY friends, not all my friends friends.

[@fliwskies1629]

It doesn't work

[@jenifierce6517]

Enjoyable video but even following along the share button is still right there 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@louisejones2920]

Maybe the person can't see it on their page..I still.see it too

[@Anonymous-hx5vw]

Exactly!!!

[@elainerose3110]

It definitely did not work on either one you gave.

[@maryalisonmomoh676]

The information in your video does not correspond to the title of your video. A wasted 2 minutes of my time

[@mrkarroh]

yes, because i don’t want that my friends share my posts. so this is unhelpful. Facebook is creepy 🙃

[@ryuukikazama3930]

I need PUBLIC POST, with DISABLE SHARE button

[@jazzerie6246]

Right

[@darrellwongmaui]

The "share" button was still visible on your post.

[@sarahcollier4735]

This does not work!! Share button remains on all posts!! Other thing that’s not working is the ability to comment on public posts has been removed, even though in my settings it says “allow comments on public posts” What’s going on with Facebook - not happy that I cannot have full control over my privacy!

[@MJ-uz8vm]

No this is about the shared button, this is about who you want to see your posts, either you want people who aren't ur friends to see ur posts or only your friends to see your posts.

[@Montaden3]

Doesnt work share button still there

[@barrykesten5239]

Not working. I want all my 'friends' to SEE my posts, but they are getting ripped off and end up on other people's timeline. Can I permanently make "share" disappear from visiblity.

[@saundradavis]

Right!!

[@keithbailey8521]

Thank you - I wonder why Facebook couldn't explain as well as this! Their instructions are simply too complex.

[@khuongdzuynguyen6762]

Facebook is stupid.

[@mikehavok1859]

Thanks for responding to everyone. You are really giving out solid information. What I'm doing is known as cyber sarcasm.

[@seownicholas]

Another click bait title

[@kevinsouthgate2865]

I created FB for my elderly MOM now she just share all post the whole day... How can I stop her from sharing every post.!! Please HELP!!!!!

[@tanyeezus7197]

My main problem rn

[@jayjoswasabi4945]

lmaoooo same

[@osita975]

I don’t want to stop my friends from sharing my posts. I want to stop ppl idk from sharing my public post. How can I do that? Is that even possible?

[@5cats2kids8]

Neither of these methods removes the share button. Even the first method you showed, when you posted the ❤️❤️❤️ comment still had the share button there. 🤦‍♀️😡

[@keithbailey8521]

It shows on your own Facebook but not others peoples

[@blue_wolfblade]

Y’all aren’t even exposing the right thing!!! I want people to stop sharing posts I share from other places

[@patronpapidx4507]

Forreal

[@jeancarlaalag3663]

it didnt work :(

[@susankeller164]

1st of all it's a buTTon. Not a buddon.Secondly that will not get rid of ur share button, it on shows it to certain people. Button is still there.

[@sherryjohnson5404]

Didn't work and I did it like you did now what

[@destinyvlogs2035]

Thank you for sharing

[@LavenderRae19]

In the first post you created, the share button remained there. Why is that?

[@jenifierce6517]

Same 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@saundradavis]

Yeah I would love to know. That's exactly what I'm dealing with.

[@victoriaclark9931]

It’s weird but I don’t have this option at all. Not even a privacy setting… could you please guide me on how to add it?

[@lancecoros4891]

This is not true. I tried doing it and I was able to share my friend’s post to my wall. Which is not right. It’s a form of violating your friend’s privacy.

[@dollarBill007]

There is two perfectly good T's in the word button, might as well use them.

[@happyatpl]

but friend can share。。how to close the share button。。i dun wan friends to share

[@khuongdzuynguyen6762]

In case I want Public to see my post but don't want them to share it, what should I do?

[@AgentFulgoreBasedDepartment]

that's what i'm trying to figure out. my cover photo got shared without my consent let alone permission.

[@viniswampy2]

It was useless, I wanted to make it public and remove the share

[@user-iv1gk6vh6r]

How To Enable Share Button on a post in facebook event page that is already public, thank you

[@jaclynhowell3089]

This doesn’t do anything. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

[@ahadm4]

I did what you said and the share button is still there . I have Samsung S21FE

[@BeautyoftheUniverse333]

So the only way to make it so your friends can share your post is to put the setting from friends to public?

[@hirohunter2314]

Thank you

[@ganeshsapkota1977]

Good information

[@simweiliangwilliam8801]

The 2nd type, for Disable share button, does it mean every new posts i write it will dont have share button on it ? or i have to disable every time i write a posts ??

[@mike-anthonyfields]

How do you remove the option to add comments on fb cover photo and remove the share button all in the same time? I am trying not allow any comments or shares on my current cover photo…

[@charlenehamby2565]

Friends can still share it and this doesn't disable the button

[@yolandabryant8630]

Did not work for me

[@belushiladymomomona]

On my memories my share button isn't showing When I click on the pictures in the post it shows Something Went Wrong Try Again

[@mercedesparker8110]

Didn't work :(

[@donaldlambert4606]

How can I remove the share music you love automated ad from my Facebook homepage permanently and take all music off my phone.

[@kvoi4435]

This does not work.

[@kathygale3663]

I'm not sure what's going on. I followed the instructions - it doesn't work. I am aware the public posts can be shared. I didn't do this - only my friends can see it.

[@LisaOwens-tr6sy]

This only works for private profiles on Facebook. I need to get the instructions to get rid of the share button in a facebook group.

[@janicemcnutt4857]

So even though we see the share option on our posts, our friends can't? I'm confused.

[@charmainelayman1162]

the first way changed it to message. The 2nd way absoutely yhose pages do NOT FLOW the way you said. Is this an old freaking video??? Facebook sucks when it comes to helping

[@aliciaman8115]

My share button goes directly to WhatsApp. How can I direct it to messenger app?

[@jackieblue2341]

Tried this and friends were still able to share. Yes it showed my name however it was still on their page

[@goldensunshine1910]

Followed instructions and share button is still showing

[@sorincalciu]

Wont work! You cannot turn off sharing your posts by friends but only for public! This button is only for public posts! And this is like violating my privacy to share my posts without even to notify me!

[@mohammedrafeekmohammedrafe6995]

Thanks

[@janiewilliams4301]

Nope my friends are the ones sharing not wking for me

[@Carmel5555]

Sorry, this does not take away the "SHARE" BUTTON..

[@erictremblay1420]

How do you disable the share or send button in a private group post? That seems to be impossible. I can only find disable comments.

[@sajithkumarsahadevan5870]
