The company recommends Page owners add the information to their Page descriptions.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Facebook is alerting Page owners that it is removing a number of fields from Page info starting August 1, 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fields to be removed include Company Overview, Biography, Affiliation, Personal Interests and maybe more, according to a tweet from Matt Navarra<\/a> (who spotted the changes via Facebook Marketing expert Mari Smith).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Facebook is notifying Page owners that some fields will no longer be available in the Page info section.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Why we should care<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Anyone managing a Facebook Page will need to revisit information listed in the fields scheduled to be removed, and add the information they want to remain visible to the Page\u2019s description.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fields being removed are listed under a Page\u2019s \u201cAbout\u201d section and, most likely, will not impact a Page\u2019s performance. Page owners can access the fields from \u201cPage info\u201d under Settings. SMBs and public figures whose primary online existence are their Facebook Pages may have important information in those fields. Editing the Page description to include the soon-to-be deleted information will make sure those details remain intact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
