The Hide Comments app helps you hide comments on posts from the Pages you manage. Hiding comments allows you to protect the information of commenters as well as the content of the comments. To get started, you need to connect the app to your Facebook account that manages the Pages. Then, grant permissions for the app to access the Pages and filter posts along with the list of comments in each post. Within the comment list, you can choose to hide individual comments or hide all comments. Additionally, you can set up an automatic comment hiding mode when the comment content matches a regex expression. With this feature, you can automatically hide comments that contain phone numbers, product codes, or hide all comments automatically.
