what do u mean when u say they register some of it in the activity log? when i ran it ( removing all my activity from 2008 - 2014 ) in the end there were a few posts ( very few ) that for some reason wouldn't delete ( even if i did it manually ) is this what u mean?
so when i click on activity log and click on likes or posts i'm tagged in etc on the left hand side is says there are no posts from 2013...etc. but if i actually go to my profile page and scroll down my page everything is still there and loads up. i've had problems especially with removing tags from my photos though and defriending people and deleting the events i was associated with.
anyhow, i've gone and ballsed it up in my impatience and unfriended everyone thinking i'll go back and remove tags/photos later...school girl error! sorry for wasting your time!
no worries vhcgreen, like i mentioned... even after removing all of my activity, there are a few lingering posts that won't seem to go away... tbh, this is probably just a facebook bug, don't think it was designed to account for this kind of mass-deleting ;)
MAJOR PROBLEM, the script opens the chat menu instead of the activity ones
Yo... all I'm getting is 'undefined' on the console... jquery is loaded = true, do i need to be on a particular page in Fb? thanks again
me too same thing as s0rfila
yes, u need to be in ur activity log showing "All" or filtering by the particular category u wanna wipe.
The problem is that the script is unable to open the menus, it opens the chat settings instead

Exactly what ferraucchio is saying...
ok, couple things to check [1] are u in the activity log? && [2] have u scrolled down ur activity log enough to be sure you've loaded things to 'Unlike'???
also, if u are specifically trying to "unlike" but want to keep other data ( which i'm assuming b/c u added the 'Unlike' parameter ) u could instead filter through the activity log [a] go to ur activity log [b] filter by 'Likes' ( http://imgur.com/J30nR0b ) [c] copy+paste jquery, then the script above, then simply type: leaveFacebook(); ...without parameters.
nbriz & subimage:
Kudos again. it's working now... like magic!!! don't forget to drop the:
leaveFacebook();
into your console after pasting the script... and yes, the activity feed was the ticket. Thanks for helping everyone...
nbriz:
I'm having some trouble. The script worked for a while and allowed me to unfriend all/remove likes. However, it doesn't work for the photos. The boxes come up but it says "oops this doesn't seem possible just now." The boxes remain open and I have to manually remove them all.
Is there a way to fix this?
Matt
hi Matt, could u share a screen shot of that message && ur console?
Great work, from what I can tell, but I'm getting an error. I'm using Web Console in Firefox, but code from other sections have worked fine.
I paste in the "leave_facebook.js" code and get "undefined" response. I then drop in the "leaveFacebook();" code (no quotes) and get this returned:
Error: <![EX[["Tried to get element with id of "%s" but it is not present on the page.",".uiPopover > a"]]]>
"Loading menus to click!"
Attached is a screenshot. The only difference in this screenshot is that after the leave_facebook.js, I saw you ask above if the user had scrolled down. Scrolling down is not in the original instructions, so in this screenshot I have used the scroll script then stopped the scroll, then applied the leaveFacebook();.
The error is the same, though, with and without the scroll script.
I'm hyped up to get the F off FB, and I've been stuck on this for about 2 hrs now. Wanted to try to figure it out w/o bugging you.
Thanks for the help!
hi therub, question: did u copy+paste jquery b4 pasting the leave_facebook.js code?
as per the instructions just under the video here: http://nickbriz.com/facebook/unfriend.html
A ha! I read it, but I guess I ignored it.
Thanks. Trying it now.
edit: Perfect. Working perfectly now.
Not sure if I am leaving something out but what should the console look life after each step?
I pasted the jquery and saw "true"
then I pasted the all in one script and saw "undefined"
what should I see after the "leaveFacebook();"
(sorry not techy at all but desperate to get off of facebook)
I started this process yesterday and the script worked perfectly, but it appears FB has updated the activity feed so the script can't locate the menus to run on any more.
@ZiggyMoonBlues u should see the menu's popping up && ur activity getting deleted. Make sure before u paste jquery that you are looking at ur activity log
@danielpearson i just tested it w/a face account && it still worked for me?
Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong?
I have pasted everything (jquery and script ) and after that nothing has been deleted.
You can see that at screenshot

I would be grateful for help
@nbriz first off, can't thank you enough for all you help and the continued support.
I'm getting "The content you requested cannot be displayed right now. It may be temporarily unavailable, the link you clicked on may have expired, or you may not have permission to view this page."

Untagging also seems to get hungup and not clicking through the windows.

Thanks again.
@nbriz I'm having the same issues as BergerFohr (above)
@BergerFohr after pasting jquery && the updated code above, do u type in leaveFacebook() by itself or with the parameters? i just did a test with the leaveFacebook() function ( without any parameters ) && it worked fine...
Guys, when i try to delete something, i always receive this error message:
Uncaught Error: <![EX[["Tried to get element with id of "%s" but it is not present on the page.",".uiPopover > a"]]]>
what's wrong? I open my activity log, expand it and then copy and paste on my console the code on top and then paste "leaveFacebook('Unlike'); or leaveFacebook('Delete');"
@Ahnabelle try to turn the language of your Facebook account to "English (UK)"
I also get the same problem as fl4tfour, It seems that the only active continue bottom is on the bottom of the stack so you can't get to it. Would be nice is there was a part of the script that let you access them from the top down.
hi nick, thanks for the update. really bizarre but i've executed this code and facebook sort of registers some of it in the Activity Log but doesn't reflect it on my profile. did you run into this at all? thx
