Facebook displays ‘content isn’t available right now’ notice
Facebook displays a message saying “This content isn’t available right now” when a post cannot be viewed by someone attempting to access it, the company indicates.
The notice explains that the issue usually arises because the owner shared the post with a small group of people, changed who can see it or deleted it. Those are common reasons posts become inaccessible on the platform, whether the change comes from the account holder or from content moderation actions.
The message can affect casual users, journalists and researchers trying to verify material, and anyone following public conversations on Facebook. Visibility settings and content removals are part of how the social network manages privacy and enforces its standards, and they can complicate efforts to trace the origin or persistence of online content.
If you encounter the notice, Facebook suggests checking whether you are logged in, whether you have permission to view the post or whether the poster removed it. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
