Learn more about how to use Live Producer here. If you’re planning a larger virtual event or show, we also recommend checking out this advanced Facebook Live guide.

You can go live on a Page, in a group or an event. Your live videos may also appear in News Feed and on the new live video destination on Facebook Watch, which makes it easy for users to find live content they care about. In addition to the top current and upcoming live videos, the new live video destination features channels about specific interests like entertainment, performances and more.
How to schedule a live stream
If you’re using a connected camera and encoder, you can schedule a live stream up to one week in advance in Live Producer. If possible, we recommend scheduling live broadcasts ahead of time to make your audience aware of upcoming broadcasts and to more easily connect when your stream begins. Learn more about scheduling a live broadcast here.
When you schedule a live broadcast, 2 posts are automatically created:
- An announcement post: When you schedule your live broadcast, an announcement post is published to your Page, letting your followers know you have an upcoming live stream. People who see the announcement post can click "Get Reminder" to receive a one-time reminder notification shortly before the stream begins.
- A live broadcast post: At the scheduled time of your live broadcast, a post containing your live stream will automatically be published. People who expressed interest via the announcement post get a notification directing them to the broadcast.

How to moderate comments
If you’re using a connected camera and encoder, you can moderate comments in Live Producer. Once a stream is initiated, the left-hand column will display your live post’s comments, giving you the ability to moderate the discussion while also monitoring the live stream.

A dropdown menu lets you apply the following settings to more easily manage comments:
- Slow: Commenters can only comment once every 10 seconds.
- Discussion: Your chat will only show comments of at least characters.
- Follower: Only your followers can comment.
- Restricted: Viewers must have accounts that are at least two weeks old to comment.
- Protected: Commenters must have followed you for at least 15 minutes.

As the host, you can select a guest to go Live With during a mobile live broadcast from your Page or profile (Live With is not available in Live Producer at this time).

Here are some things to keep in mind before, during and after your stream on Facebook Live.
To support creators, small businesses, and other media partners, Facebook offers the option to host an Online or Paid Online* Event with Messenger Rooms, Facebook Live, or other video chatting platforms.
Depending on where you decide to host your event, Online and Paid Online Events* allow you to limit content distribution to those who have registered to attend for free or purchased admission, respectively. You can learn more about Online Events here, as well as explore these lessons for more information on planning and producing an Online Event on Facebook.
To make it easier to discover and join these online events, we have also redesigned the Events bookmark. From here, your audience can quickly find events happening now, as well as discover those based on their interests, allowing them to stay connected with you and other events they care about.
*Paid Online Events are available to a select group of partners at this time. You can learn more here.

Grow and monetize with Facebook Live
To better support our partners, we’re improving the tools that help creators earn money and manage their presence on Facebook. We’re expanding access to fan support products, such as Fan Subscriptions and Stars, as well as offering new ways to monetize video content, including ads in short-form video, ads for live video and new ad experiences.

Profanity filters
Page admins can moderate both the content posted to their Page and the people who like their Page. Page admins can turn on a profanity filter to block profanity. Facebook determines what to block by using the most commonly reported words and phrases marked offensive by the community.
The Profanity filter can be turned on in Page Settings > General > Profanity Filter. There are 3 levels: Off, Medium and Strong.
Banned words
To cut down on inappropriate content, Page admins can add keywords they would like to block from appearing on their Page. If one of these keywords is used in a post or comment, it will automatically be marked as spam. A Page admin or moderator can approve or delete the content. The content length limit is 10, characters.
Blocked keywords can be set in Page Settings > General > Page Moderation.
Chat rules
Page admins can set chat rules for their communities from their creator dashboard. Page admins can choose from the rules that we developed with the Fair Play Alliance, or write their own custom rules. When a viewer writes their first comment, they will see a popup with the chat rules, and must agree to those rules before writing their comment. When the Page admin or a Community Manager removes a comment, they can indicate which rule was broken. This is communicated to the viewer who wrote the comment.
To enable chat rules:
- Go to the Streamer Dash.
- Select Chat Rules at the top of the screen.
- After you choose your rules, select the Chat Rules button to go to the Page admins view of the moderator dashboard.
- You can select which rules to activate and use the custom text section to create and activate custom chat rules.
- Check the Chat Rules Preview window to see a preview of the rules for your chat.
Moderation Dashboard (Classic Pages Experience)
Page admins can make users community managers or moderators of their page. These users can use the dashboard to remove comments, mute viewers for a short period of time or ban people from their Page or stream. Once someone is banned they can watch the stream, but cant comment or react to the stream or other people. Their previous comments will also be removed.
To access the moderator dashboard (Classic Page experience):
- Go to fb.gg/moderator.
- Click "" next to the comment you want to action.
- Select:
Delete
Ban from page
Ban from stream
Mute for 15 minutes
Report comment
- Select which rules were violated so the commenter can receive feedback about why their content was removed.
Note: For Pages that have switched to the New Pages Experience, moderation tools can be found right in the live player. To enable these new tools, visit the Pages live stream on desktop and click on the .
New Pages experience and chat moderation settings
Moderators (not Community Managers) can no longer perform live stream moderation, and chat messages from personal profiles will no longer have Moderator badges.
Creators that previously had Moderator status in the Classic Pages experience need to be invited as Community Managers.
If you already had designated Community Managers in a Classic Pages experience, those roles should still be designated on those users after the transition to the New Pages experience.
