How do I post as 'group member' in a private fb group please?

I've been trying to work this out. In the private group that I'm in on fb, sometimes people post under 'group member' instead of their name showing. How do I do this please, can anyone tell me?

Many thanks in advance

Are you doing it in your phone?
when I go to post on a group and click on the but that says write something, there is a toggle
button at the top that says post anonymously.

The fb help centre have the info, you just go to your group, tap post anon.

If it is WIWIKAU just select anonymous post.

Just be aware that when you post anonymously, the admin know who you are (and may authorise the post before it is visible - I don’t know if that’s group specific).

It depends on if the group has the option available, i think they can turn it off if they want.

If i go into one of my groups, theres an option to 'post anonymously' but the option isnt there in another group that im in.

If they have the option turned on it will look like this when you go to write the post with the little toggle above.

There are people posting anonymously.

I was going to say that - we've had one anonymous post in our group and it had to be authorised by the admins first, so we knew who it was.
