8 Simple Steps To View Archived Stories On Facebook

Have you ever posted a story on Facebook and then regretted deleting it? Maybe you wanted to share it with someone who wasn’t on your friends list at the time, or maybe you just had a change of heart. Whatever the reason, there’s good news: you can view archived stories on Facebook, even if you’ve deleted them.

Archived stories are stored on Facebook’s servers for a period of time, even after you’ve deleted them. This means that you can still access them, even if you can’t see them on your timeline. To view archived stories, simply follow these steps:

1. Click on the down arrow in the top right corner of Facebook and select “Settings & Privacy”.
2. Click on “Settings”.
3. Click on “Your Facebook Information” in the left-hand menu.
4. Click on “Access Your Information”.
5. Scroll down to the “Stories” section and click on “View”.

Filtering and Sorting Archived Stories

Using Search Filters

To filter the archived stories, use the search bar located at the top of the “Archived Stories” section. Type in specific keywords, such as the story title, the name of the person who posted it, or the date it was posted. The search results will be narrowed down to only those stories that match your search criteria.

Sort by Date

You can sort the archived stories by the date they were originally posted. Click the “Date” header at the top of the “Archived Stories” section to sort the stories in chronological order, with the most recent stories appearing first. You can also click on the “Date” header again to reverse the chronological order, displaying the oldest stories first.

Advanced Filters

For more detailed filtering options, click on the “Show Filters” button located on the right-hand side of the “Archived Stories” section. This will expand a menu with a variety of filtering options, including:
