How to Recover Hidden Facebook Friends

We have all had those moments – we were fed up with certain friends on Facebook.  Maybe they were posting too much. Or they post too many pictures of their cat doing cute things. Or constantly ask us to donate to various political causes we have no interest in.

Rather than unfriend them, we decided to use a kinder, softer approach.  We hid them from our newsfeed!

Now we want to give them a 2nd chance but how? Do you even remember who you hid?

Unhiding a Facebook friend is a cinch, once you figure out where to find the list of people you hid.

  1. Log in to your Facebook account
  2. Go to your Home page
  3. Scroll your browser all the way to the bottom of the feed
  4. At the lower right, you will see a link that says “Edit Options”. Click it.
  5. A box will pop up entitled “Edit Your News Feed Settings”
  6. There’s an area that reads “Hide Posts From”
  7. There you have it in one concise list – all of the friends, apps and pages you hid from your Facebook newsfeed page.
  8. Click the little “x” next to the name, app or page you want to unhide.
