Auto-hide Facebook Page comments with the words you choose

Before you start

• A Facebook Page connected in Channels — Connect a Facebook Page.
• A Page connected before 1 October 2026: press ⋯ › Refresh permissions on its card in Channels once, then Edit settings in the Facebook window and keep every permission ticked.

1. Set up the automation

1. Start it

   Go to Automation, press New automation and, under When?, pick Someone comments on a post.

2. Type the words

   Separated by commas — for example scam, spam, fake. Whole words only, and case and accents do not matter. Up to 20 words or short phrases.

3. Choose the posts

   Any post, or Only these posts.

4. Add «Hide»

   Under What does it do?, press + Hide.

5. Choose the Page and save

   Under Where should it run? tick Facebook Page and pick the Page, then press Save automation.

2. Hide or unhide one comment

In Comments, open the post and press More actions (•••) › Hide on the comment. The same menu has Unhide.

What to know

• Facebook doesn’t let a Page hide its own comments. The Page can delete them instead.
• Who still sees a hidden comment is Facebook’s rule: the person who wrote it, and their friends.
• It runs on every matching comment when it only hides. With a reply or a DM, it runs once per person on each post.
• One automation per comment — the most specific one: chosen posts first, then words, then any comment.
• It reads words, not links, and your Page’s own comments never start it.
