Cringey posts, be gone!

Anyone who has had Facebook longer than 8 years will tell you, there's no cringe that can compare to seeing your old posts.

Thankfully, there’s an easier way of removing those pictures from 2007 than deleting each one individually.

All you have to do to rid those pictures from your life is go to your profile and click the ‘manage posts’ button.

Then switch to the ‘grid view’ rather than the traditional timeline view as it’ll make it easier to select them.

You can even jump back through the years with the drop-down box on the left-hand side. Clicking the small corner box on each post lets you select up to fifty to delete at once.

Bad photos, be gone!

You’ll see a prompt at the bottom of the screen saying ‘You can hide or delete the posts selected’ next to a big blue ‘Next’ button. Click the button and decide whether you want to just hide the posts or erase them forever.

Unfortunately you can only deleted your own posts, not ones that other people so kindly posted to your timeline...trust us, we tried.
