CREATING AN AREA, WHERE YOU CAN SEE ALL YOUR FRIENDS, FARM TOWN POSTS
This page is being put in place to help out with not only the current problems with the Farm Town Request Page, but we will leave it in place, in case similar problems are encountered in the future.
You are going to create a "Special Farm Town Area" which should keep the majority of your friends Farm Town posts in one place. There is a downside, if your friends play other games, you may well get these posts also in this area, but we felt , it was better than nothing.
Just follow these step by step instructions, to create your area.
1. Click the following link. Once you have done this, click "+Create List" at the top right of that page. https://www.facebook.com/bookmarks/lists
2. A box will appear. You will need to give your list a name. So maybe name it something like "Farm Town Friends". In the "Members" box, type the name of just one friend. Then click "Create"
3. Go to your timeline, and click on "Friends". You will then get a page, showing your friends. If you look in the box of each friend you will see the word "Friends" with a drop down arrow.
4. Now go down through your friends, and every time you see a friend who plays farm town, click on the drop down arrow, in their box, and then click "add to another list". Your "New List" should appear in the drop down box. Click on the name of your list and that friend will then have been added to your new list.
5. Continue to go down through all your friends, until you have finished. You have now created a new Farm Town Area.
6. Now you are going to click the original link that I gave you, once again. https://www.facebook.com/bookmarks/lists
7. When you have clicked that link you will see your "lists" page again and your new list should appear. Click the cog icon, to the right hand side of your list and then click "add to favourites".
8. Your new list will now remain permanently on your left hand side.
9. You are now going to change the settings of this area, so that you only get "games posts", and no status's, photo's etc. So, click on your new list, and you will then be taken to your new "area". In the top right hand side, you will see "Manage List" with a drop down arrow. Click on the drop down arrow and click "choose update types". You will then be given a list, with a check mark (tick) next to them. Click to remove Status Updates, Photo's, Comments and Likes, Photo's and Video's, and Other Activities. Just leave a check mark next to "Games".
You will now have a newsfeed, which only shows the posts from those friends you have added. So you should get an area that is primarily, Farm Town Posts.
As I said, this is not going to be completely free from other posts, but it is a way, to see all friends farm town posts, without having to scroll and scroll down your regular newsfeed.
Whenever you wish to check for Farm Town posts, just click the name of your Area, which should be under favourites on your left hand side.
I hope this helps.
