So besides making sure that the person is already invited to the Facebook group, here are two most common reasons why you can’t make someone a Facebook group admin:

First, if you are not the admin of the Facebook group, you obviously won’t be able to invite the person to the Facebook group. Facebook group moderators can’t make members Facebook group admins.

Secondly, if the person is already an admin, you are also not going to be able to add the person as a Facebook group admin.

Cancel Facebook group admin invitation

If you change your mind or you have invited the wrong person, you can cancel the Facebook group admin invitation anytime you want if the person hasn’t accepted the FB group admin invitation yet.

Here is how to cancel a Facebook group invitation:

1. Open the Facebook group
2. Go to the ‘Invited Admins and Moderators’ section.
3. Click on the three dots
4. Select Cancel admin invite
