How to delete a Facebook post that has already been posted

If a post has already been published to Facebook, you can remove it in two ways: from Social Cascade or directly on Facebook.

Option 1: Delete from Social Cascade (Calendar)

On desktop (calendar view):

1. Open Calendar in Social Cascade (left navigation) at app.socialcascade.co
2. Find the post.
3. Click the post to open it. The window title will say “Post Content”.
4. Click the red Delete button at the bottom of the window.
5. The next prompt  dialog presents with options such as “Remove post for now” or “Remove post and do not schedule again.” Select the desired action and click the Delete button.
6. The post is removed from your calendar, and we remove it from Facebook.

Option 2: Delete the post directly on Facebook

On Facebook in a browser (computer):

1. Go to facebook.com and log in.
2. Open your profile or your Facebook Page (depending on where the post was published).
3. Find the post you want to remove.
4. Click the three dots (⋯) in the top-right corner of that post.
5. Click “Move to Recycle bin” (or “Delete”, if shown) and confirm.
6. The post is moved to your Recycle bin and is permanently deleted after 30 days. To delete it immediately, go to Settings & privacy → Settings → Your Facebook information → Activity log → Recycle bin, find the post, click the three dots, and choose Delete.

On the Facebook mobile app:

1. Open the Facebook app and go to your profile or Page.
2. Find the post.
3. Tap the three dots (⋯) on the post.
4. Tap “Delete” (or “Move to Recycle bin”) and confirm by tapping “Delete Post” (or equivalent).
