Suppose I am a member of some public groups. But I don't want people, be it friends or 'everyone', to see a list of all public groups that I am in. Only I should see a list of all public groups that I am in.

I have read that there is an option for "Groups" in "more....manage sections."

enter image description here

I see no Groups option here looking at this pic below.

  • Did you found a way to hide your groups?

  • @Adam probably not but for any facebook under my actual name I probably wouldn't join any groups..I don't really use these things like facebook much anyway. Was just messing around seeing how bad it was.

Go to your profile. Click the "More" dropdown menu. Select "Manage Sections". Uncheck the Groups located near the bottom of the list.

  • There doesn't appear to be a "Manage Sections" part anymore. If I instead click on "Groups" there doesn't appear to be anywhere to change the settings.

  1. Login to Facebook
  2. Go to your profile page. Look in bottom right of Cover Photo for "More" Option.
  3. Click on "More" and select "Groups" from the drop-down
  4. Click on pencil icon button near "+ Create Group" button
  5. Click on "Hide Section" from the drop-down. Done.

  • Now I see it doesn't show in 'more' and I can't see the pencil either. How do I unhide it? Also I didn't want to hide it from myself I wanted to hide public groups from all friends.

  • I have Groups back in the more menu now, as the manage sections list of sections scrolls when an item is dragged down then I can click groups to show it.

  • Your answer doesn't answer the question. I asked not about hiding Groups from myself, (and by the way it was still there when I went to Home.. and clicked Groups on the sidebar). But I wasn't interested in hiding groups from myself. I asked about hiding "public groups", from friends or anybody visiting my profile.
