    Hopefully someone can help me,


    On my wall my recent activity can only be viewed by mutual friends. So If I post on someone’s wall it can only be seen by people who are friends with both of us. What settings do I have to change so that people in my friends list can see all my recent activity? Like my posts on other peoples wall even though they’re not friends.

    So you want people that aren't your friend to see everything you do? Without giving them a choice? You'll have to become friends with them all.

    Oh God no :eek:

    Basically I want any of my friends to be able to go to my wall and view the post and comments I have placed on other people’s walls even though they may not be friends with them. At the moment only mutual friends can click on the link to see the post or comment.

    Ah right, thought you sounded a bit mental there :D

    It may have to do with everyone else's personal settings. I know when I go onto someone else's page I can see the comments they made on status'/links/etc., click on it and have a read of the other person's original comment/status or link even though I'm not friend's with them.

    Seems like you don't really want anything private so maybe change your settign to 'everyone' instead of 'friends of friends' or just 'friends'?

    It's not up to you. The other person controls who can and can't see their wall

    I think you need to change your status updates privacy level to either "friends of friends" or "everybody". However, it depends on the persons whose wall you have posted to whether the message is visible. For example, I may be able to see that you have posted on A's wall (and part of the message) but I may not be able to see A's wall to read what was posted.

    Actually Facebook are changing their privacy settings again and some of them relate to how the content you post is viewed. The above will probably be out of date soon.
