How to delete all Facebook wall posts from your timeline
To complete this process, you will need to use
and the Timeline Cleaner for Facebook script (instructions below)
Step 1: Install Firefox
If you don’t already have the Firefox browser installed, you can install it here:
Step 2: Install the Greasemonkey addon
With Firefox open, go to:
Click on the ‘Add to Firefox’ and follow the prompts to install Greasemonkey.
Step 3: Install the Facebook Timeline Cleaner script
With Firefox open, click on ‘Install this script’ below and follow the prompts to install the script.
Install this script
Step 4: Open your Facebook Activity Log and start the delete process
1 - With Firefox open, open your Facebook profile (click on your name at the top right of the page) then click on the ‘View Activity Log’ button
3 - You should see the following at the top of the page, if you do not press F5 on your keyboard to refresh the page
5 - Leave ‘Auto-scroll’ enabled
6 - tick ‘Run’
7 - and choose the a day range that you want to delete (optional – depending on the next step)
8 - Now using the ‘Privacy Extension’ button on the right, select what you want to do – for example, ‘Delete everything older than X Days’
10 - Click ‘OK’ to the warning message.
12 - The process will now start. It will automatically scroll through your Activity Log and either hide or delete your posts are you specified.
13 - If it cannot delete a post, for example where you were tagged, it will hide it from your timeline.
14 - The script should not unfriend any of your friends, or delete any of your uploaded images or videos – however it was written and is maintained by a third party (Greasy Fork) – so I cannot guarantee what it exactly does.
15 - You will notice your browser and computer are slow whilst the process happens – this is because it’s a very intensive process to load all the posts and delete them. You will need to be patient and wait – depending on how many posts you have, it may take hours to complete – which will still be faster than manually deleting.
16 - I suggest you leave the computer alone whilst it runs, do not navigate away from the Activity Log or open other browser tab .
