How to make facebook profile unavailable to the public? - Kara Nari - 11-09-2012 11:16 AM
My facebook profile has public searching turned off, so when it shows the example of what my profile should look like it doesn't show any information. However, when I am actually on my profile and click "view as" it shows all my information. I just want only my friends to be able to see my information and nothing else because my mom keeps googling me and emailing me to say that she can see my information. I am a grown adult and this is really starting to annoy me.
Also - Could she possibly see more information because she is a friend of a friend?

um, you can deactivate it or go to settings and their is something that when people type your name in the search bar, your name wont come up.

You need to change your privacy settings by clicking on privacy then set it to friends.
Next, go to your profile. click the left side box, where it states your D.o.B and something like that. there you can change every single one of those to private or friends.
since your mum is just a friend of your friend's. she cant look up to the things that uve change from public to friends. to be able to see it. she needs to befriended you first

If your setting is set at 'Only Friend', then no one else other than a friend can find any information or update or post. Not even a friend's friend. You can see your information because you are logged in.
