Have you ever opened Facebook to see your profile picture in a drab gray square, a stark contrast to the vibrant colors and photos of your friends? This is a sign that you are in “Professional Mode,” a setting that hides your personal information and posts from people who are not your friends. While this can be a helpful way to maintain a professional online presence, it can also be isolating and frustrating if you want to connect with your friends and family. Fortunately, it is easy to switch out of Professional Mode and get back to enjoying Facebook the way you want to.
First, you need to log into your Facebook account. Once you are logged in, click on the down arrow in the top right corner of the screen. A drop-down menu will appear. Click on “Settings & Privacy,” and then click on “Settings.” On the left side of the screen, you will see a menu of options. Click on “Public Posts.” On the right side of the screen, you will see a section labeled “Who can see your public posts?” Click on the drop-down menu and select “Friends.” This will change your public posts to be visible to your friends only. If you want to be even more private, you can select “Only me” from the drop-down menu.
Once you have changed your public post settings, you can click on the “Back to Settings” button at the bottom of the screen. You will then be taken back to the main Settings page. On the left side of the screen, you will see a menu of options. Click on “Profile and Tagging.” On the right side of the screen, you will see a section labeled “Profile Visibility.” Click on the drop-down menu and select “Public.” This will change your profile to be visible to everyone. If you want to be more private, you can select “Friends” or “Only me” from the drop-down menu.
