"Social Book Post Manager" helps you to delete your posts through the activity log, which include posts by you, and by other persons/apps. You may specify "Year", "Month", "Text Contains", and "Text Not Contains" filters for posts to delete. Plus the activity log filters provided by Facebook (TM), you have full control of which posts to delete, and which posts to keep. Recent new features:

1. Text filters support AND/OR conditions.
2. Prescan the activity log. You can then select exactly which individual entries that you want to delete/hide/unhide/unlike/change privacy settings.
3. Hide/unhide timeline items.
4. Unlike items.

ALL the features are FREE for you to use, and totally UNLIMITED. If you are satisfied, please leave me some feedback. Also please feel free to give me suggestion, and bug reports if any.

The process is slow. It simulates your mouse click on delete button one-by-one. This is the intentional limitation by Facebook (TM). There is no way to bypass it. <<<

Any other Chrome extension may conflict with this extension. If it's not working, please follow the instruction to remove/disable other Chrome extensions temporarily. Then restart Chrome and try again. <<<

Use filter features as much as possible, and try limit the number of posts to be processed. The more data need to be processed, the more likely your browser and the Facebook (TM) server will fail to function properly. It's recommended to process one month at a time, unless you are sure there isn't many posts left to be processed.<<<

================================

Notes: The scanning/deletion process takes a LONG time to finish, depending on number of posts involved. Because Facebook (TM) does not want the users to easily remove posts, they don't provide any function/API to delete multiple posts at a time. This extension can only filter/delete posts one-by-one. There is no any known method to accelerate this process. Please be patient, sit back, and let the extension does its job. You may have a coffee, or better just let it run through a night.

==================================== Privacy and Information Security

1. This extension does not track or record any user information. It does not use cookie or any other mechanism to record users page visits.

2. This extension does not track or record whether a user posts a review, or makes a donation. Whether you review/donate or not will not affect how it works.

3. Because this extension does not store anything anywhere, this app does not support features like auto-retry, user preference, etc. This is designed on purpose. I believe user privacy is much more important than any features, particularly for this Chrome extension.

4. This extension uses Google Analytics API to log which features (delete/hide/unlike, etc.) are being used most by the users, and whether the process runs successfully. The log result is not associated, nor linked with each individual user. The data is purely used by the author to know which features are used most, and whether it's working properly. If you want to be opted-out of this, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out add-on in https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

5. This extension is completely written in Javascript, and running completely within users Chrome browsers. All the source code can be viewed with Chrome Developer Tools. The code has been analyzed many times by many other developers. The extension has been used by nearly 200,000 users. If there is anything bad, it would have already been reported. You can feel absolutely safe to use it.

2. This extension does not retrieve or store any Facebook (TM) login credential, nor will it retrieve any other information from your Facebook (TM) account.
3. Deleted posts are not recoverable. Please carefully choose the Activity Log filter, the Year, and the Month for deletion. The author shall not take any responsibility for any potential loss of information due to post deletion.
4. I've thoroughly tested the extension upon the Facebook (TM) Activity Log, in multiple language interfaces, including English, French, Chinese, etc. So far, it works perfectly upon all language interfaces.
