Not all social media users networks are willing to share their news with others. But, as you know, it is completely impossible.
In any case, all the posts that you publish will be available to your friends. This is the ideology of Vkontakte and nothing can be done about it.
But, something can still be hidden. This will be the subject of this article.
In you can specify which updates will be displayed in the news feed of your friends. Only these updates will be watched by your friends.
To do this, follow a couple of simple steps:
1. First of all, from your page, go to the "Settings" section.
3. Now we go down to the end of the page and find the subsection "Other".
Opposite the graph "What updates do my friends see in the news" we set our values:
But, fortunately, the Vkontakte developers have added the ability to besides friends. To do this, it is enough to click on the icon when posting a record on your page:
- The posted post can only be seen by your friends;
Experiment with your privacy settings to ensure at least some social anonymity. networks.
The social networking service is designed so that after creating a page, the user is able to post a variety of posts and materials on the wall. A wall is a tape with posts located on the main page of your account. It can contain almost any of the available materials - text, including emoticons, photographs, audio recordings, videos, documents, graffiti, maps, polls, a timer. In fact, the wall is the user's face, that is, it is completely impossible to hide it from everyone. However, it is possible to carry out several operations to restrict access.
How to hide the wall from everyone?
The only existing way to hide news completely can be used only for one or several users who have been added to the black list by the account owner. This method is too radical and should only be used as a last resort. In addition, in this way a blocked user will be able to gain access using a fake page, another person's account, or just a search engine.
Therefore, first of all, you should hide your page from being in search engines. This operation can be performed in the privacy settings of your account in the other section. The page should not be visible when typing a user id in a search engine, otherwise any attempt to restrict viewing access will be meaningless.
Partial wall hiding
You can completely hide the posts that friends have left on the wall. To do this, you should also use the privacy settings in the account records section. In the same block, it is possible to disable posting of records on the page or commenting on them by other users, in principle, or to restrict it in some way.
It is impossible to hide existing records from prying eyes if they were left by the account owner. This is the only form of content posted and is not subject to any limitation.
Partial wall hiding It is possible to place initially hidden materials. To do this, before sending the entry to the wall, click on the lock icon to the left of the “Send” button, which should then change to the closed lock icon. The materials found will be available for viewing only to friends.
View the page from the side
Each person on Vkontakte has a unique opportunity to check exactly how other people see his page - from all people, in principle, to a specific friend. This function is convenient to use at the end of concealment operations to verify success and fine tune.
View the page from the side There is also such a rather strange option, as the refusal of the appearance of news in the feed from another user. If the user unsubscribes from mailing, he will not notice the posting of posts and reposts if he does not go directly to the page. This option is suitable if the account owner wants to hide some not particularly important information from another person.
In conclusion, it is logical to say that it is not a good idea to keep the necessary private information on the wall. The most practical option for storing any materials that need to be hidden from prying eyes is to upload them to closed albums or create a dialogue with yourself and send attached items through it. In any case, it is much safer to make the storage on a virtual disk or simply on a computer, since in case of hacking, all the above operations will be completely useless.
Today we will clean up excess garbage from the Vkontakte feed. In a couple of clicks, you can remove from the news all entries, posts of some friends or groups.
Video instruction:
Hide all Vkontakte news
Tired of being distracted by the VK feed? Procrastinating instead of working? Do you spend a few hours a day on memes? - There is an exit! In Vkontakte, you can hide ALL news.
To hide all records in the VK tape, set up the appropriate filter. On the main page on the right in the "News" tab, click on the following icon:
In the window that opens, click on "Actions" and select "Hide all".
Save and you're done. Now, instead of the feed, the following page will be displayed:
Hide individual news from friends
Some guy reposting the kid's basins and MDK? Let's remove this debris from the tape. Go to the same filter, find the person using the search and uncheck the box.
The selected users are immediately taken to the "Not shown" tab. From there they can be returned by clicking on the checkmark. Do not forget to save the changes and the posts of the selected friends will no longer be visible in the news feed. Group entries can be hidden in a similar way.
To close the wall in this social network, first you need to view all the settings that the user currently has. At the top left, under the VKONTAKTE logo, there is a list of the main items for managing the page: “My Page”, “My Friends” and the last one is “My Settings”. Click on this item.
Sub-items will appear at the top: "General", "Privacy", "Alerts", "Blacklist", "Mobile Services" and "Balance". To adjust the visibility of the page, you need the first, second and fourth items.
Before authorization, that is, entering a password, you need to scroll through your page as a "guest". This is necessary in order to make sure that the selected settings are correct (then it is advisable to do this after any changes).
If you do not understand what such manipulations are for, remember that programs are made by human programmers, and no one is immune from mistakes. Changes are carried out on a regular basis, so there is a possibility of incorrect software modifications. Of course, they will be corrected later, but during this period of time, until they find a BUG (malfunction on the site), for example, or other information may be open to undesirable outsiders.
Next, you should view on the page who refers to your friends, since there are separate settings for them from the general ones. Then, on the "My Settings" tab, the "General" sub-tab, tick the "Disable commenting on posts" button in the "Wall settings". Marks are placed or removed with the left mouse button.
Regulation in information visibility settings
In addition, this social network has two important sub-tabs in the settings: "Privacy" and "Blacklist". With the second, everything is simple - whoever, friends, does not like, that in it and bring. Then these people will not be able to see the information on the user's page.
There are a lot of items in the "Privacy" line, but you can also understand them. Click on any line, for example, take the first: "My settings" - "Privacy" - "Who sees the main information of my page". On the right you will see a blue highlight (by default, the item "All users" is lit), when you click on it, a list of those who can see the wall is displayed: "Friends", "Friends of friends", "Only you", "All users", "Some friends "and" Everything except ... "You need to select the one you want and right-click on this item.
By analogy, you can set the settings in all lines. Do not forget to check the settings changes using the network logon method
