If you want to keep your Facebook post hidden from your friends, there are a few things you can do. First, make sure that the post is set to private. This will prevent anyone other than the person who posted it from seeing it. If you want to make the post public again, just click on the “share” button and select “public” from the drop-down menu. Another way to hide a Facebook post is to use a privacy filter. You can find these filters under the “settings” tab on your profile page. Just click on the “privacy” link next to the name of the person you want to protect and select “hide posts from this person” from the list of options. Finally, you can also delete a Facebook post if you don’t want it seen by anyone else. Just click on the “delete” button next to the post and confirm that you really want to delete it. ..


Facebook has a lot of uses. For some, it’s just a social network, but for others, it’s a piece of professional branding. If you’re in the latter category, it helps to keep your Timeline tidy and free of irrelevant information.

While it’s simple delete a Facebook post, this isn’t always the best solution. If, for example, you change your profile picture, you can’t just delete the post. If you deleted the photo, it would be removed from Facebook so couldn’t be your profile picture. Instead, you need to hide it from your Timeline.

To hide a post from your Timeline, click or tap the downward facing arrow next to it and select the Hide from Timeline.

Click or tap Hide and the post will be hidden from your Timeline. It’ll still appear elsewhere on Facebook, just not on your profile’s Timeline. If people have already shared the post, it will remain on their Timelines.

To unhide a post, click or tap Activity Log. It’s just under your cover photo.

On mobile, tap the arrow next to the post and select Show on Timeline.

On the web, click the crossed out circle and then select Allowed on Timeline.
