How to Share A Post On Facebook
1. Log-in to Facebook.
2. Locate the post you want to copy and repost on your newsfeed, a friend's profile or business web page.
3. Press "Share" under the post.
4. Utilize the drop-down box in the "Share This Status" dialog box to select who you intend to share the post with. You can repost to your own timeline, a friend's timeline, to a group, on a page you have or as an exclusive message to another user.
5. Filter who sees the shared post by using the "Custom" drop-down box in the "Share This Status" dialog box. This permits you to choose to omit specific people or lists from seeing the post, even if you share it on your timeline.
6. Compose a message of your personal in the "Write something ..." box. This isn't really needed, but offers the opportunity to include in the original message or explain why you're reposting.
7. Press "Share Status" to repost.
Pointer: While uncommon, some posts may not have a "Share" link. To copy these posts, highlight the text you want to share and also press "Ctrl-C" to copy the message. In the "Update Status" box, press "Ctrl-V" to paste the text. Press "post" to share. Always give credit report to the original poster.
Caution: When reposting a post from a specific user, guarantee you have consent to do so. If the post consists of individual info, the user could not want the post shown to anyone outside their own circle of friends.
