Hide FarmVille Posts from Non-FV Friends

Many of our Facebook friends do not use FarmVille. This guide is good for those that do not want non-FarmVille players to know they play FarmVille at all.
Facebook has implemented new security and privacy settings, one of which can allow you to only show posts from Applications to certain people, or restrict it from certain people.

Follow these simple steps below:

1. Open Facebook to your main page. On the left-hand side you should see lists (News Feed, etc.). Click the link on the bottom for “More”.
2. The list should expand downward. Select “Create New List” at the bottom”.
3. You should see a new window. Title your new list, “FarmVille friends”, “FarmVille neighbors” or whatever you want to call it. Select “Create List”. Select any of your existing FarmVille friends that you want to be added to this list.
4. When FarmVille pops up something to post to your feed, such as a collection or a lonely animal, before you just click “Publish,” click the lock image to the left of that button and select Customize:

5. A new window will come up within the Publish window called “Custom Privacy.” In the drop down under “Make this visible to” select “Specific People…”

6. In the text box under “Specific People…” write in the name of the FarmVille group you named earlier (in step 3).

7. FarmVille has not fixed their box to be able to use this setting properly yet, so you will have to use the tab key on your keyboard to tab through the fields until you can see the “Save Setting” button. Click on this button.

8. Click Publish, and you’re all done! Your FarmVille friends will be able to see your post, but anyone that is not on that list will not be able to see your post.

Important: Whenever you add a new friend for FarmVille before you confirm them, select the “Add To List…” drop-down and select the name of your list (chosen in Step 3). You must put them on this list for this to work!

Thanks! I've been doing this up to step 6. I didn't know about using the tab key. I just thought it didn't work on my pc. Thanks again.

Is there any way of setting it up so that you don't have to select the farmville list for each new posting?
