Elizabeth.. I did what you said... and I STILL only get a selected group.. the same friends over and over... leaving out so many that I would like to see comments of on my wall... and now I wonder who of my friends are missing my posts also.....

I think your problem may be related to the first issue in this post:

http://www.techforluddites.com/2009/10/bug-alert-friends-are-missing-from-the-new-facebook-live-feed.html

One thing that's changed since I posted that is the name of the feed views. You need to make sure you're on the Most Recent view (link at top of news feed page), then scroll to the bottom and click on Edit Options to change the maximum number to 5000.

You'll also want to make sure you go back to Most Recent whenever you log into Facebook, or you'll only see a subset of posts (Top News). And FB keeps defaulting back to that view, unfortunately.

I have quite a few friends/clients and I dont ever get to see their posts... only a certain number of friends do I get to see.... how can I change this... where do I go to list the friends I WANT to see on my wall with info and not the ones that Face Book thinks I want to see....

Great post, Elizabeth! I've retweeted & will share with my FB friends (many of whom have been as baffled as me by the changes.
Maybe I'll makeup with FB after all... ;)
