Facebook Privacy Question

Ok, I know there is a way to make it that when you search for me to add me as a friend it makes all my information private.  How do I do that?  For some reason I don't think it is working...

Re: Facebook Privacy Question

  • Go to privacy settings and click on each setting and change it to say Only Friends.  Make sure you go to each photo album as well and change it to Only Friends.  In the privacy settings to the right of the screen, it says View My Profile or something... click that and you can see what your profile looks like to people that aren't alraedy your friends. 

    Hope that helps! Smile

  • See... I did that.  And it shows when you search for me now my photo, name, that I am Texas alum, and my groups.  All that other info is fine but I want to take my picture off.  With the job I have, I don't want my clients searching for me.

  • I'll look at it when I get home from work to see if I can figure out how to hide your picture... I knwo the name and groups are public information on there... but I know there is a way to hide the profile picture.  I'll update shortly! Smile
  • Thank you!!  Sometimes I am not very technically savvy.  Today is one of those days.

  • I have no idea!  You used to be able to go to privacy settings and then search... and it would come up with the options of having people be able to see your picture, add as a friend, send a message, and view friend list.  That isn't under there anymore!  I wonder if all profile pictures are public unless you aren't in a public search?
  • If I'm not mistaken, I think in their latest updates, they made it so profile pics are always available. At least that's what I think I read. I'm not loving that. I had just changed my mom's pic to private cause she was getting loser friend requests off it (which is totally odd to me, but whatevs).
    We have so much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.

  • Id also go under privacy settings, go to search, turn off the public search results and you can control who can search you. Then go under profile info you can go through each part and specify who can see your info.

     

    Hope that helps.

  • This should work......

    Privacy Settings>>Profile Information>>Photo Albums>>Profile Pictures set to 'Friends Only'

    I have not figured out the group thing and find it very frustrating!
