In this article, you will learn how to delete your page, as well as unpublish it. In the event that you haven&#8217;t deleted your page yet, there&#8217;s still a 14-day cooling-off period in place. After that time has elapsed, Facebook will send you a notification asking you to confirm your action.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Unpublishing_a_Facebook_page\"><\/span>Unpublishing a Facebook page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first step to unpublishing your Facebook page is to open the settings menu in the top-right corner of the page. Click Settings, which is located between Edit Page Info and Help. Scroll down to the General tab and select the &#8220;Unpublish page&#8221; option. After clicking this option, you can choose an alternative reason for unpublishing. In this example, we will use &#8220;delete page&#8221; as our reason.<\/p>\n<p>You can also unpublish a Facebook page if you want to hide it from the public. An unpublished page will not appear in the recommendations tab or show activities. This is useful for private pages, but you must have admin access to view it. If you want to republish the page, you must have administrator access. Once you have the administrator access, you can then merge the two pages. But note that merging the pages will remove the unpublished page from the public.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve reached the point where you no longer want to interact publicly with your page, you should unpublish your page. The best time to do so is when you&#8217;ve been resting for some time. If you&#8217;re passionate and compassionate about your career, unpublishing is a better option than deleting it. Otherwise, you may find it useful to merge your page with another similar one in the future. If you don&#8217;t have the time to keep up with it, you can merge with another similar page and maintain its popularity.<\/p>\n<p>While deleting a Facebook page is a drastic measure, unpublishing a page is a much less dramatic option. When done correctly, unpublishing a page only hides your page from the public. The reason for unpublishing your page will be displayed only to the page manager. Unpublishing your Facebook page is only temporary. Simply login to your account and choose the page you want to hide. You can always return to it later by clicking on &#8220;Publish Page&#8221; again to re-publish your page.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Delete_a_Facebook_page\"><\/span>Delete a Facebook page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To delete a Facebook page, log into your account and scroll down to the &#8220;Pages&#8221; section. Click on the &#8220;Edit&#8221; or &#8220;Delete Page&#8221; option. A notification will appear giving you 14 days to restore your page. Confirm that you want to delete the page and you&#8217;re done! To regain control of your page, click &#8220;Restore Page&#8221; and confirm your choice. Then, wait 14 days.<\/p>\n<p>To delete a Facebook page, you must be an admin or have permission from another administrator. Go to the Pages section in the left-hand menu and click on &#8220;Settings and Page Roles.&#8221; Look for the label &#8220;Admin&#8221; next to the name of the page. Click on &#8220;Settings&#8221; in the upper-right corner. Your page&#8217;s name will appear in the list. If you are the administrator, your profile picture will display the word &#8220;Admin&#8221; next to it.<\/p>\n<p>To delete a Facebook page, you should log into your account and choose the Settings option. Click on the three-line options button at the top-right corner of the page. Tap on &#8220;Your X Pages&#8221; and choose the page you want to remove. When you are done, the page will no longer be visible to Facebook users. After fourteen days, you can re-publish it. But make sure you don&#8217;t remove it from your Facebook account if you want to keep it.<\/p>\n<p>To unpublish a page, you have to be an admin. If you delete your page, it will be visible to the public for 14 days. If you decide to delete your page, Facebook will send you a notification that you need to confirm your decision. You&#8217;ll need to confirm your decision by clicking OK. If you&#8217;re still not satisfied with your decision, you can reactivate your page by unpublishing it.<\/p>\n<p>In order to delete a page, you must log into your Facebook account. Click the &#8220;Pages&#8221; option under the Explore section. After you click &#8220;Delete Page&#8221;, you&#8217;ll find a list of all your Facebook pages. Select the page that you want to delete. Click &#8220;Delete Page&#8221; when prompted. If you&#8217;re sure you want to delete the page, Facebook will hold it for 14 days before it&#8217;s permanently removed.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"441\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/48Dmzg_YeCg\" height=\"246\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do You Delete a Facebook Page?
