Why cant my friends see my birthday posts on Facebook?
Facebook used to display your birthday right on your Timeline, but at the time of publication, your birthday is hidden away in the About section of your profile. If people can’t see your birthday, you may have never entered it or used a privacy setting that limits who can see it.
What do you reply when someone wishes you happy birthday?
Here are some example responses:
- Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! I’m having a great time!
- One man. One birthday. So many great birthday messages. 🙂
- IT’S MY BIRTHDAY SO I GET TO USE CAPS LOCK. Thank you for the kind thoughts everyone!

Why did my birthday notifications disappear on Facebook?
The good news is Facebook hasn’t removed the birthday notifications. They simply removed the Newsfeed link to them. The reason why is anyone’s guess. Luckily, it’s very easy to find your birthday list even without the Newsfeed link.
How do you reply to all on Facebook Timeline?
To get started, simply open the Facebook page and select Reply underneath the comment you would like to respond to. Type your reply and then click Enter. Your reply will now be displayed in the comments section for all to see. If you would rather respond via private message, underneath the comment select Message.
Should you wish your BFF a happy birthday on Facebook?
We all know you love your BFF 4EVA, but unless you’re under 20—and even then—putting up a collage of pictures and wishing your friend a happy birthday on your own page is just cheesy. The exception to this might be a milestone birthday or during a year when your friend has really helped you through a hard time. Otherwise, just don’t.
Celebrating birthdays, whether your own or those of family and friends, is a happy occasion. Let’s not mar that with overuse of the Facebook wall or texting when we should call. Social media should be complementary to other kinds of interaction, not in place of it.
How has Facebook changed the way we celebrate birthdays?
Facebook has changed the whole birthday game, as it were. No longer do people get credit for remembering the day you graced humanity; now they get an alert (and a follow-up reminder!) about it. The ease of remembering has led to confusion about how to offer the appropriate “happy birthday” greeting.
Should you text or call to say Happy Birthday?
If you talk on the phone, like people did in the days of yore, then you need to call. Even if you don’t text but go out once or twice a month, recognize how difficult it is to meet someone and hit it off after a certain age, and at the minimum, text them to say happy birthday.
