What exactly does a limited profile show? - Amber - 11-09-2012 10:14 PM

I added my mom to my limited profile list on Facebook. What exactly will she see or not see? It's just really annoying because I am 21 years old, and I live on my own, and she leaves comments for everything I do, and when I go ahead and delete them and she gets mad at me.

So....back to my question....by adding my mom to the limited profile list, what does she see/not see? Thanks!

I thought the "limited profile" in Facebook has been taken off under the new Facebook?

Although I can't help you in this question, there is another way to actually control exactly what a person sees in your Facebook. It's a bit tedious as the New Facebook believes in making everything "minute and detailed" with regards to privacy.

Under your privacy settings (Go to "settings" at the top right, and click on "Privacy settings"), go to "Profile". In that page, you have a entire list of what can, and cannot, be seen - and by whom. Now, for EACH and every single thing you don't want your mum to see, simply go to that menu, and click on the arrow. For example, under "Friends", you click on the arrow beside the box. Next, click on "customize" and right at the bottom where it says "Except" - put in your mother's name.

You can even prohibit your mum seeing the posts on your Wall, pictures ... etc etc etc. Have fun.

i thought limited profile does not work anymore with the new facebook? Somehow I can't find this except button. Can anyone tell me where it is exactly? I got until customize but it shows only that I can select either friends of friends or only friends and which or any networks can look at my profile.
