Crazysah Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Hello, Has anyone seen the new Facebook sidebar? The one that keeps a refreshing news feed along with the chat? I have one problem. How do I see all the people who are online? I can't seem to do that. Also, another problem is, I can't see the birthdays/events next to the sidebar anymore? What's up with that?

Crazysah The people online should be the little picture boxes on the left bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~Johnny Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Stupid thing about this sidebar - it only shows a PORTION of you online friends, and then fills the rest of it with offline friends. There doesn't appear to be anyway to see all your online friends anymore. Frankly, this is probably the dumbest change Facebook have ever made.

Guest Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 is pretty poor tbh.. I don't like this idea that the people that appear in the list are people I actually connect with when they're most likely not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There doesn't appear to be anyway to see all your online friends anymore. Frankly, this is probably the dumbest change Facebook have ever made. Precisely. You can search for a friend and then see if they are online, but you can't just look at a list of all your online friends. Plus the birthdays and the events and people you may know is gone.

Gaffney Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm not bothered with change but this sidebar is ugly and it's not straightforward. Also the new chatboxes, they are still buggy like in the meta data for tabs someone has messaged you still sticks. With the new chatboxes is that to minimize it you not need to click the blue bar at the top before you could click the top of the blue bit at the bottom. You can't click the persons name on the chatbox anymore to go to their profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3ml3ml Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 It's very bad what I hate about it is that get the Facebook contents to the left which very annoying to me the old chat-box was much better I don't know whey the didn't add the appearing offline with viewing who's offline without this stupid bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biotoxic_hazard_835 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 I hate it, takes too much space and does not allow you to sort friends by status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidnightDevil Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) Is it the bar it shows that your friends are playing some game? PS - Nevermind, just saw it. Bah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysah Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 There must be a way to see all online friends at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryW185 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 There must be a way to see all online friends at once. Yep, there is an option to hide the sidebar at the bottom that returns it to the old style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted July 8, 2011 Subscriber² Share Posted July 8, 2011 I was wondering which sidebar you meant - until I fullscreened the browser. With the browser window being only 1250 px wide I don't get the permanent sidebar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bogas04 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 They are digging their own grave :/ New messages , this chat(with group chat) now , photo theater , everything sucks so bad. I don't mind using G+ at all now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilrich Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 It seems to go away if you make the browser smaller....G+ is looking really good compared to this. That photo thing dosen't work half the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PT 13 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yes I have seen it and it's ANNOYING!... Glad I moved to G+ (full time, due to this stupid annoying bar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Johnny Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yep, there is an option to hide the sidebar at the bottom that returns it to the old style. Sure it hides the sidebar, but when you click the chat button again it just opens up the sidebar, without all your online friends in it :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buendia Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 This new sidebar is badly designed - the old chat box was much better. Someone already mentioned, you can't see all of your online friends with this new sidebar. And not only that, it uses too much space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
