How to Control the past of Facebook Timelime?

With Facebook's new Timeline now rolled out to everyone, it is very important to know that  the default privacy settings of all your past posts updates can be done with a single click. 

For most people, it is not psychically possible to go around and change each post individually. With this option you can limit the audience of all your past posts on your Timeline to only friends. Which means friends of friends and the public will not be able to see your posts. With this option you can control the privacy of all your past posts on your Timeline.

To limit the audience of your past posts with a single click
1. Login to Facebook
2. Click on down-arrow 'Home' button
3. Click on 'Privacy Settings'
4. Scroll down to  'Limit the audience of past posts' click on 'Manage Past Post Visibility'



5. Click on 'Limit old posts'


6. Now, click on 'Confirm' if you really want to limit your old posts to be visible by your friends only.




Note: If you use this tool then all your past posts will be limited to Friends only. If at a later time you want to change it back to friends of friends or public, you will need to go to each post and change it one at a time. Currently, there is no single click to revert back to the default settings.
