Changes in F.B. Purity v34.2.4

  • Fixed the hide Group Conversations option (located under the Chat options heading)

  • Fixed the Show Deactivated Friends function ( To try it click the “Show deactivated friends” link on fb.com/me/friends )

If you are using Chrome (or chrome clone),  Firefox or Opera and have FBP installed already it should update itself to the latest version automatically. If you are using the GM Script version of FBP you can go to the script install page on install.fbpurity.com and click the install script link, then follow the on screen instructions to update the script.

If you have Microsoft Edge and are using the Edge extension version of FBP you wlil need to wait a few days before they review and approve the latest extension update. Alternatively you can switch to using the Chrome extension version of FBP, as Edge can also run Chrome extensions.

    I like and normally stay on “Most Recent” but like to be able to occasionally see “Top Stories” but the top stories button only stays on top stories for a few seconds before reverting to “Most Recent”? Does the FPB Most Recent feature override the Top Stories button at the top of the feed?

    • admin says:

      if you have fbps “news sort: most recent” optoin turned on, and click the top posts link to soon after the page loads, it means fbp will not have had time to modify the link to allow top posts to load. If you wait a few seconds after the newsfeed loads (wait till the url for the top posts link has changed to https://www.facebook.com/?sk=h_nor#topstories ) then click it, it should work ok. or alternatively bookmark that link as i have typed it including the #topstories at the end, then use that bookmark to access top stories. or alternatively, turn off the news sort: most recent option.
