This is also my main problem with it. The idea is nice to have some sort of diary where you log important events in your life so that you can scroll back in someone's history and see when important things happened.
But sometime before Timeline, Facebook made a change so that each post has an individual visibility to give users more control or whatever, and when I switched over to Timeline, all my old posts that weren't private automatically appeared on my timeline, and I can't easily change the visibility of all those old posts, that are now much more easily accessible.
I want the newer posts on my Timeline to be visible, so others can see the latest crap I shared with my friends, but I want the older posts to fade into obscurity, unless I actively bring them back again.
- runn1ng 15y agoYou can change the visibility of all the past posts easily; select " Limit the Audience for Past Posts" in Privacy Settings.
- untog 15y agoLast time I checked that only allowed you to set it to 'friends', as opposed to 'public'. There was no option to set it to specific groups of friends.
- henrikschroder 15y agoThanks, but you can only set past post visbility to "Friends", not "Private", and I don't see any definition of how old a post has to be to be considered a "past post".
