FAQ: How to appear offline for specific Friend Lists on Facebook Chat

By now almost everyone knows how to show themselves offline to all their friends, but do you know how to do that for a specific friend list? Yup! You can do that.

Before I show you how, let's first set it up so you can hide and unhide yourself at any given moment. These few clicks will lessen the steps for you later.


Let's add the Friend Lists in your Chat window:


1. Click Chat.
2. Click Friend Lists.

3. Click the list you want to make available in the chat window. Do this for all your Friend Lists.

Now to make yourself available or unavailable you just click the moon icon corresponding to the Friend List you want to make yourself available or unavailable too. The moon icon will change to green when you're online for that list.

So you see, it's just a few clicks and viola! You're hidden from stalker! JK :)


From here on, all you need to do is click the moon icon corresponding to the Friend List you want to talk too or hide yourself from. Not bad, huh?
