- make sure you don't log out the `Mautrix-Facebook` device some time in the future, as that would break the Double Puppeting feature
## Set up community-grouping
This is an **optional feature** that you may wish to enable.
The Facebook bridge can create a Matrix community for you, which would contain all your chats and contacts.
For this to work, the bridge's bot needs to have permissions to create communities (also referred to as groups).
Since the bot is a non-admin user, you need to enable such group-creation for non-privileged users in [Synapse's settings](configuring-playbook-synapse.md).
Here's an example configuration:
```yaml
matrix_synapse_configuration_extension_yaml: |
enable_group_creation: true
group_creation_prefix: "unofficial/"
matrix_mautrix_facebook_configuration_extension_yaml: |
bridge:
community_template: "unofficial/facebook_{localpart}={server}"
```
Once the bridge is restarted, it would create a community and invite you to it. You need to accept the community invitation manually.
If you don't see all your contacts, you may wish to send a `sync` message to the bot.
## Troubleshooting
### Facebook rejecting login attempts and forcing you to change password
