Hello friends! If you have too many friends on your list active people, whose posts often appear in the feed, and, at the same time, they are not particularly interesting to you, then now we will figure out how to hide the news of some groups or communities on VKontakte.
For those who don’t know: what does hidden news in VK mean? These are the ones you are not interested in. Please mark such entries. And if you want, you can completely prevent posts from certain groups or people from appearing in the feed.
Let's take a closer look at how to remove unnecessary information from your VKontakte feed, and make it as interesting as possible.
Hiding a friend's news
If you need to hide the posts of a certain friend or person you follow on VK, then in the menu on the right in the “News” tab, opposite the desired user, click on the three horizontal dots.
Then select "This is not interesting" from the drop-down list.
The marked entry will disappear from the feed.
To prevent the selected person’s posts from appearing in your feed at all, click on the “Do not show news...” button.
To remove posts from several friends from your feed, click on the filter icon next to the “News” tab.
A window like this will open. Here, uncheck the boxes next to those users whose news you want to hide. After that, they will appear in the list, which is located on the “Not shown” tab.
If you want to hide all VKontakte news, click on the “Actions” button and select “Hide All”. By selecting “Show people” - all posts from groups you are subscribed to will be removed from the feed; “Show communities” - posts from your friends will not be displayed.
To prevent reposts from being shown, uncheck the “Show copies” box.
Save the changes by clicking on the appropriate button.
Hide group news
If you are subscribed to a group, but do not want to see its posts in your feed, then you can, of course, unsubscribe from this community. But this is a last resort. If something in this group still interests you, but you look at the information by going to the group itself, then let’s remove the group’s posts from the feed.
We do everything in the same way as described in the previous paragraph. Find the group entry that we want to hide and click on the three horizontal dots opposite it. Then select "This is not interesting."
After this, the “Do not show news...” button will appear, click on it, and then all posts of the selected community will disappear from your feed.
You can do it a little differently. While on the News tab, click on the filter image. A familiar window will open. The groups you are subscribed to are at the bottom of the list. Uncheck the box next to the community whose posts you want to hide.
If you generally need to remove records of all groups from the feed, then click on the “Actions” button and select “Show people”. The checkboxes next to the groups will be unchecked.
Hide your entries
To prevent your friends and subscribers from showing yours in the news feed, for example, that you added a photo, tagged a person, etc., do the following.
On your page, click on the arrow near the thumbnail at the top right and select “Settings” from the menu.
In the next window, in the menu on the right, go to the “Privacy” tab. Scroll down the page and in the “Other” section, opposite the item “What updates do my friends see in the news,” you need to select “No updates.”
IN old version On VKontakte this item was on the list, but after updating the social network, it was no longer there. In order for it to appear, you need to do the following. Select “Partition updates” from the list and check the box next to any item. Then click anywhere in the window to close the list.
Now click on “Partition updates” again and uncheck the box that you checked. After this, the item “No updates” will appear in the field we need. Close the list and exit the settings, all changes will be saved automatically.
Don’t worry, everything that you do on VKontakte: add people as friends, make reposts, leave notes, will not be shown in the feed of your friends and those users who subscribe to your page.
How to clear your VK feed from your phone
If you access VK from your phone more often than from your computer, then I’ll tell you how to hide friends’ news from your phone or tablet using the installed mobile application VKontakte.
It's very simple. Open the news page in your profile and next to a friend or community whose posts you want to remove from your feed, click on the three vertical dots. Then select “Hide source news” from the list.
All posts of the selected user or group will disappear from the list of your feed.
How to get back hidden news
If you often hide posts from various friends, then it’s worth looking at this list, maybe you’ve become interested in the posts of a certain person again, and you can remove someone from it.
To open a list of friends whose news has been hidden, open the news page in your profile and click on the filter icon, which is located in the menu on the right.
If you need to remove all groups from this list, then click on the “Actions” button and select “Show communities” - all groups will be checked. The same goes for users, only you need to select “Show people”.
Save your changes.
To allow your friends to see your posts in their feed again, click on the arrow next to your miniature avatar at the top right and select “Settings”.
Go to the “Privacy” tab and in the “Other” section, in the “What updates do my friends see in the news” item, select the desired item: either “All updates” or “Section updates”. In the second case, you need to check the boxes next to those items that will be shown in your friends’ feed.
I think everything is clear to you.
Service social networks is designed so that after creating a page, the user has the opportunity to post a variety of posts and materials on the wall. A wall is a feed with posts located on the main account page. It can contain almost any of the available materials - text, including emoticons, photographs, audio recordings, video recordings, documents, graffiti, maps, surveys, timers. Essentially, the wall is the user’s face, which means it is completely impossible to hide it from everyone. However, several operations can be carried out to restrict access.
How to hide a wall from everyone?
The only existing way to hide news completely can only be used for one or several users whom the account owner has added to the blacklist. This method is too radical and should be used only as a last resort. In addition, in this way a blocked user will be able to gain access using a fake page, another person’s account, or simply a search engine.
Therefore, first of all, you should hide your page from being found in search engines. This operation can be done in your account privacy settings in the other section. The page should not be visible when typing the user id in search engine, otherwise any attempt to restrict viewing access will be pointless.
Partially hiding a wall
You can completely hide posts that friends have left on your wall. To do this, you should also use the privacy settings in the account records section. In the same block, it is possible to disable posting entries on the page or commenting on them by other users in principle, or limit it in some way.
It is impossible to hide existing entries from prying eyes if they were left by the account owner. This is the only form of posted materials that is not subject to any restrictions.
Partially hiding a wall It is possible to place initially hidden materials. To do this, before sending a post to the wall, click on the lock icon to the left of the “Submit” button, which should then change to a closed lock icon. The materials found will be viewable only by friends.
Viewing the page from the side
Every person has VKontakte unique opportunity check exactly how other people see his page - from all people in principle to a specific friend. This function is useful to use at the end of hiding operations to check success and fine-tune settings.
Viewing the page from the side There is also such a rather strange option as refusal of the appearance of news in the feed by another user. If the user unsubscribes from the mailing list, he will not notice the posting of posts and reposts unless he goes directly to the page. This option is suitable if the account owner wants to hide something not particularly important information from another person.
In conclusion, it is logical to say that it is not a good idea to store the necessary private information on the wall. The most practical option for storing any materials that need to be hidden from prying eyes is to upload them to locked albums or create a dialogue with yourself and send attached items through it. In any case, it is much safer to make the storage on virtual disk or just on the computer, since in the event of hacking, all the above operations will be completely useless.
