To go live on a Facebook group from Vajro, you need to have a Facebook page connected to the group.
Facebook has 2 types of pages:
Classic Pages are the older version, and they have been around since Facebook first launched them in 2007. While Classic Pages are still functional, Facebook is gradually phasing them out in favor of the new Pages experience.
New Pages experience was first introduced in 2020. The new Pages experience is designed to be more modern and user-friendly, and it offers several new features and benefits that Classic Pages do not.
Previously with Vajro, only the groups nested in Classic Pages were enabled to go live. We have now extended support to the new Pages experience as well. Please follow these step-by-step instructions before attempting to go live on these new Pages experience.
