Facebook keeps on changing the interface of Facebook chat and they did it again and added an old feature again, that is to show your status offline to some friends and online to some. Now you also have an option of showing your status offline to one friend or a group of people using Facebook lists. Let’s see how you can do it.
Showing your status offline to some friends:
To show your status offline to some friends or a single person, open his/her chatbox and click on the gear at the top of that chatbox. After that click second option i.e ‘Go Offline to’. See the picture below,
Showing your status offline to a group of friends:
For this you first have to make a list of friends whom you don’t want to chat with. Click here to know more about lists. You can also add people to restricted lists and hide yourself and your private content on Facebook. After that click on the gear at the bottom right of the page and select ‘Advanced Settings’. Then add the name of that list and click ‘Save’. See the pic below,
