Re: Annoying message on Facebook

Hi Tinky this is the current message we are being given on the FBP options page that you will be shown once you have managed to link FBP to FB.

FBP Tip: Did you know Facebook are blocking people from sharing direct links to the FBPURITY.COM website, because they don't want anyone to know how good it is and they don't want Facebook users having control over what they see on their own computers. You can get around this by sharing links to the FBP fan page at http://facebook.com/fluffbustingpurity instead

If Tafs link doesn't work try the link in my link and see how you get on. Putting up decorations at the moment but I will keep checking up to see if it works. fingers crossed

if anyone experiencing a problem viewing their newsfeeds and groups, with them showing no posts, this is due to a clash between FBP and the Adblock Plus extension, if you disable Adblock Plus for the Facebook website, things should go back to normal. FBP Blocks most ads on Facebook anyway, so you shouldnt notice much of a difference. Alternative options are to install "UBlock Origin" instead of Adblock Plus, as that is a higher rated and better extension, and does not cause a clash with F.B. Purity.

I had to swap and I can't fault Ublock it has even stopped some problems I was have on other sites

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

Thats the correct site, the download page is on the same site : https://www.fbpurity.com/install.htm

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

Many thanks everyone Purity now successfully installed, now to work out what is what. :)

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

It is useful to backup the original settings for FBP, them make new backups as you do your tweaking.

What would I do/have done without them? The reason I keep coming back is because I totally rely on their ceaseless willingness to reassure/ help without seeking praise/thanks, bless them, they know who they are.:clap:

Very true ,thanks to all the members that offer help when i post what seems to them a very stupid question

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

Here I go again, I have successfully downloaded Facebook Purity but now have a new annoying message. I am not off line when it appears and my Browser is Firefox help!

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

This may not be related to FBP. I have hadit happen my Chromebook when I just stay on a site without any interaction and Facebook was one of those sites. In my case it was a setting that put my chromebook to sleep when it regarded that it was idle for more than 10 minutes. Maybe you have a similar setting in Windows ?

Probably I'm wrong and just scrolling for ages would still keep your laptop awake, it maybe just mine being a tad empathic as face book can sometimes put me to sleep as well. :D

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

Thanks for that Jo. It appears when I first log on to Pet rescue or Candy Crush. Looks like I am just going to have to put up with it. :rolleyes:

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

Thats not a facebook message as such, it looks like your wireless telling you its offline (or thinks it is) for some reason.

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

The symbol is for a wifi connection, so maybe that is the problem?

It seems to be Facebook as it happens on my android phone too. It's the only thing it does it on.

Re: Annoying message on Facebook

I was clearing a lot of friends names from FB that are no longer with us. The next thing happened FB blocked me. How long will this block last does anyone know. I complained to Fb,
