Sometimes we would normally want to place restrictions on who can see some posts that our friends make on our timeline.
As we all know, some friends can be funny at times with their posts, often times making posts that by your standards may be okay. But you might not want a set of people to see these posts but might want it to remain on your timeline.
So how do we go about this?
In this post, I will be showing you steps on how to activate the settings that will do just what we need whether you are using a computer, a mobile phone or an iPhone.
