Why cant I find a specific group on Facebook?

The reason that some photos or posts may not be displayed in your Facebook group or page feeds for some users, is that some users may have the Privacy setting on their personal profiles set not to allow apps to access some or all of their content. By preventing apps from accessing their content then they don’t show up in the Facebook API and the plugin isn’t able to display the content for those users.
