Facebook question

Postby PaulaO » Tue Nov 03, 2015 10:02 pm

If Sylvia blocks Paula, Paula cannot see anything Sylvia posts. I got that. But can Sylvia see anything Paula posts? Paula cannot block
Sylvia now because Sylvia's name is not popping up when Paula searches.

It depends. How are Paula's privacy settings? Who can see her posts?

In order to keep Sylvia from seeing Paula's posts, Paula should
(1) set her post settings to "friends only," and
(2) unfriend Sylvia which won't be a big loss because it sounds like Sylvia has already blocked Paula as it is.

Unless Sylvia has already unfriended Paula and that is why Paula can't see Sylvia's posts anymore, in which case Paula should make sure her posts are visible only to her friends and leave it at that.

No, if one has blocked the other, neither will see what the other posts.

If you block someone, they cannot see your posts in any way, shape or form, regardless of privacy settings.

The block goes both ways, no matter who institutes it. They cannot see you, you cannot see them

You can't even find them if you do a search for them. My daughter accidently blocked me and I couldn't find her on FB at all.

Caveat - if Sylvia is an admin in a group that Paula posts in, Sylvia can see Paula's posts but can't respond to them.
