Question

How can I accept a friend request but stop them from seeing my posts?

Community Answer

When post, click the 'share settings' button next to the 'post' button. From there, click 'more options' and 'custom.' This pop-up will allow you to share with specific people or prevent certain people from seeing your posts.
