If you manage a Facebook or Instagram business account through Meta Business Suite, there may be times when you need to delete a post—maybe it's outdated, contains a typo, or just no longer fits your content strategy.

Whatever the reason, Meta Business Suite makes it easy to manage and delete posts across platforms. Here's how to do it step-by-step.

🔍 What Is Meta Business Suite?

Meta Business Suite is Meta's all-in-one tool that lets you create, schedule, manage, and analyze posts across Facebook and Instagram from a single dashboard.

It also gives you full control over your published and scheduled content—including the option to edit or delete posts.

✅ Steps to Delete a Post in Meta Business Suite (Web Version)

Step 1: Log in to Meta Business Suite

Go to business.facebook.com and log in to your business account.

Step 2: Click on "Content"

From the left sidebar, click on the “Content” tab to view all your posts (Published, Scheduled, Drafts, etc.).

Step 3: Find the Post You Want to Delete

Use filters (by platform, status, or date) or scroll to find the specific post you want to remove.

Step 4: Click the Three Dots (⋯)

Hover over the post, and you’ll see a three-dot icon. Click it to open options.

Step 5: Select “Delete Post”

Click “Delete”. A confirmation prompt will appear.

Step 6: Confirm Deletion

Click “Delete” again to permanently remove the post from Facebook and/or Instagram.

📱 Deleting Posts from the Meta Business Suite App

If you prefer using your phone:

1. Open the Meta Business Suite app.

2. Tap the “Posts & Stories” tab.

3. Find the post you want to delete.

4. Tap the three dots (⋯) beside the post.

5. Select “Delete”, then confirm.

⚠️ Important Notes

• Deleted posts cannot be recovered, so make sure before confirming.

• If the post was published on both Facebook and Instagram, deleting it from Business Suite will remove it from both platforms.

• You can only delete posts that you’ve published through Meta Business Suite or that you have admin/editor access to.

🧠 Pro Tip

Instead of deleting, you can edit the post or unpublish it (hide it from your page) if you just want to temporarily remove it from public view.

✨ Wrapping Up

Managing your content through Meta Business Suite gives you full flexibility and control. Whether you're fixing a mistake or refining your feed, knowing how to delete posts is essential for keeping your online presence clean and professional.
