Question

Why does my hashtag not display as a clickable link?

Community Answer

If your hashtag starts with an apostrophe (') or any other special character, it will not be clickable, as Facebook's and Twitter's hashtag systems do not allow for those characters.

Question

I want to set up a Facebook page for my wedding, and I want my guests to be able to post their own pictures of the ceremony on this Facebook page. How do I use the hashtag for the guest to be able send their pictures on this page?

Community Answer

First, establish a hashtag, such as #Wedding 2017. Depending on what device your guests are using, they will have to find the # symbol on their keyboard. When you have that ready, then you put the hashtag with each photo description. If someone clicks on the hashtag, then every post with that hashtag will appear.

Question

My Facebook doesn't have the "Update Status" option. What should I do?

Community Answer

That sounds like a browser or site issue. I would try logging in on another browser or device to see if that corrects the issue.
