Facebook news feed

Patriot3 — Fri, 02 Sep 2016 15:01:19 GMT

Is anyone having trouble w/their news feed on FB? A few days ago I realized I was not getting feeds. Checked some of my friends' pages and on some it would say "Posts you have not seen". I've been sending trouble reports to FB every day, but nothing has improved. I've checked my settings and all are okay. Very frustrating!

There is a setting to make sure all of the posts from the people you want to see show up first. I can't remember what it's called (follow or star). I normally avoid FB like the plague because it's my family but I have done that with non-family people I really do want to interact with and it works fairly well. I normally don't miss a thing. Look up follow on FB and I think that's what you're looking for.

Yes, that has been happening to me also. Don't know why. I think Facebook made that change. Let us know if anyone knows how to change this!

On the far top right of your FB page, click on the "down triangle" to the right of the lock icon. One of the choices in the drop-down menu is News Feed Preferences and you have lots of choices.

But the quickest, tried-and-true way is just to click "Like" on all the posts from people/places you really want in your feed. If there's a page you like but you don't click "Like" on any of that page's posts for 2-3 days, those pages will stop showing up in your feed.

Thanks, I've done that but nothing is working for me Posts from my friends are not coming thru and none of the "liked" pages, none from QVC hosts, etc. Grrrrr!

@Patriot3 I logged in and looked and you have to go to "Follow" if it's a real person or "Liked" if it's a public figure or fan page and then click "See First" Those two things are just under the header or cover photo.

That puts that page's or person's posts at the top of your feed. I do that for the things I really want to see and their posts show up in my feed usually at the top of the heap.

Thanks, I've done that, but I still am not getting my posts, even from the QVC hosts whose pages I've liked. All these pages used to come thru, but have stopped in the past several days. Guess I'll have to keep working on it
