There are two different methods you can use to change your DOB. Depending on the privacy settings you have, you can choose to make it public, friends-only, or custom. Changing your birthday on Facebook is a simple process. Follow the steps below to update your profile. You can also choose to hide it entirely. To make the changes permanent, click the Edit button and select the desired option.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_hide_your_birthday_on_Facebook\"><\/span>How to hide your birthday on Facebook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to block people from posting your birthday on Facebook, here are some steps to follow. First, disable your timeline. Turn it back on in two or three days, and you&#8217;ll no longer receive any birthday notifications. Once you&#8217;re back, you can see who posted about your birthday and hide those posts from your timeline. You can also change the notification settings of your profile to block only birthday posts. The following are other ways to hide your birthday on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>Creating a new Facebook account is easy, and if you don&#8217;t already have one, sign up for one now. Once you&#8217;re signed in, go to &#8220;Settings&#8221; and select &#8220;Privacy Settings.&#8221; Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click &#8220;Birthday.&#8221; Type in your birthday in the &#8220;Birthday&#8221; text field. If you&#8217;d like to hide your birthday, you can also type in a brief message explaining why you don&#8217;t want your birthday to be shared with friends. Then, you&#8217;re done! Now you can enjoy your birthday without worrying about how people might find it.<\/p>\n<p>After changing your birthday settings on Facebook, you can choose to make the rest of your information private. You can edit your basic information anytime and make it less visible for certain people. This will allow you to make a more personal Facebook profile. It&#8217;s worth putting more effort into your public profile to make it private, though. If you&#8217;re worried about your birthday being public, make sure to check out this article. It contains tips on how to hide your birthday on Facebook.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_edit_your_birthday_on_Facebook\"><\/span>How to edit your birthday on Facebook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>You can edit your birthday on Facebook if you want. This will let you change the date of your birthday, as well as the audience that Facebook displays your birthday to. You can also hide this information if you don&#8217;t want people to know it. Changing your birthday on Facebook can be done from the desktop version of the website or the mobile app. Follow these steps for a successful change. However, you should note that Facebook discourages people from editing their birthdays too often.<\/p>\n<p>If you are using a handheld device, you can use the &#8220;Menu&#8221; option to edit your birthday. Open the profile screen and choose &#8220;about info.&#8221; Here, select the option to edit your birthday. Your new details will appear in your profile. You can also update your gender. Once you&#8217;re done, you can change your birth date. You can also change the date or month of your birthday on the settings page of your Facebook account.<\/p>\n<p>To edit your birthday on Facebook, go to your profile and click &#8220;About.&#8221; Then, click the pencil icon under &#8220;Basic Information.&#8221; Once you&#8217;ve done that, select the date that you&#8217;d like to edit. Then, specify the new birthday using the drop-down menus. Then, click &#8220;Save&#8221; to save your changes. Your changes will be reflected on your profile and will appear in notifications to all your friends.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_edit_your_DOB_on_Facebook\"><\/span>How to edit your DOB on Facebook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How do you edit your birthday on Facebook? You can do it from the Edit Profile option, located beneath your name and bio. Once you&#8217;ve landed there, you&#8217;ll want to edit the date of birth, month and year you were born. Once you&#8217;re done editing, be sure to click the Save button. Facebook also lets you change your language, if you&#8217;d prefer it that way. To edit your date of birth on Facebook, follow the steps listed below.<\/p>\n<p>First, go to your profile on Facebook. From there, select Edit profile. From here, click on the Basic info section and select &#8220;Edit your birthday.&#8221; A menu will appear. Choose &#8220;Only me,&#8221; if you&#8217;d like your birthday hidden from the public. Otherwise, choose &#8220;Public&#8221; to make it visible to anyone, including those who don&#8217;t have a Facebook account. To share your birthday with your closest friends, click &#8220;Close friends.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve made the change, you&#8217;ll have to wait for a specified amount of time. You can only change your birthday on Facebook three times, but you need to give a valid reason for doing so. You&#8217;ll then have to wait for a couple of months before you can make the change again. Fortunately, there&#8217;s no need to worry. Just follow the steps above, and you&#8217;ll be happy you did.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Change Birthday on Facebook If you have ever wondered how to change birthday on Facebook, this article will show you how.
