Embarrassing photos, inappropriate reflections, our Facebook profiles are full of publications that we wish we had never posted. Here is a solution to delete old posts that make you ashamed in a few clicks..

Clean up your Facebook account

Contrary to popular belief, nothing in life is hidden. Circumstances, meetings, lived experiences change us. What made us laugh 4 or 5 years ago may now seem totally out of place.

The problem is that the internet forgets nothing and forgives nothing. This requires paying particular attention to its social accounts. Your Facebook profile most certainly contains many posts that seemed funny to you at the time but which make you ashamed now..

Obviously nothing prevents you from scrolling through your news feed post by post in search of a questionable publication. Although very effective, this solution can prove to be particularly time-consuming. Because you have something else to do in life than scrutinizing your profile, Facebook has just launched the Manage Activity tool to sort its publications very quickly.

Cleaning up your social accounts is never a pleasure. Some users prefer to delete their Facebook account rather than sorting through their publications. That is to say if this task is thankless..

Delete your posts from the Facebook application

Digging up annoying old publications has become the favorite game of some funny kids. No one is immune to seeing an old photo or an annoying little comment resurface. To keep people from browsing your digital past, it's best to archive or delete your old posts.

  • Launch the Facebook application on your smartphone
  • Click on the Menu button at the bottom right of your screen
  • Bring down the window
  • Select the parameter and confidentiality section then parameter
  • In this new menu you will see the personal history section appear.
  • Click on it
  • Then press the manage activity button and then the publications tab at the bottom of the screen

All your old posts will appear in chronological order. Now you just have to select all the problematic publications and then click on trash. Your posts will be automatically placed in a trash for 30 days. This will allow you to restore your publications if you change your mind.

The tool has a filter to refine the search for posts to delete. You can for example choose to display only the publications of a given period or the messages containing a photo or a video.
