Prevent friends on Facebook from viewing timeline?

[James]

Hi, I have created a custom list that contains friends that are young (cousins, nieces,etc) and parents that I do not want to view anything at all on my timeline. Anything that I post, or anything that anyone else posts. I thought I edited the timeline and tagging properly, but when I use the `view as`thingy on FB, the person can still it. Please help. Thanks.

I think you can only block what you post on your timeline. If someone else posts on your wall, anyone can see it. Facebook is very good at undoing privacy controls.

So let's say you are about to post a facebook status update, you need to select your group name first before you post anything. You have to select the custom button first and it should give you the name of the list you want to select.

If someone posts something on your wall just in general everyone can see that.

just click the little gear/people looking icon in the corner of all your posts before you post them (or even after) you can adjust the settings for everything you post and decide who can and can't see it.

You have to make a list of everyone EXCEPT the people you don't want to see it and when you share it, you choose that custom list
