Sharing a picture on Facebook using WP8

[suhongwei]

Hi guys,
Everytime I share a photo on Facebook using WP8 built-in photo sharing function, the uploaded photo on Facebook is set as 'just for me', I need to change it to 'friends can see' manually. I was wondering is there any option I can adjust so I don't need manually change the visibility of shared photo on Facebook each time.
Thanks.:grin:

Yes go to Facebook.com and go to privacy settings and change accordingly.

Try opening the Me tile, click post an update, and change your share settings there.

But the share setting there is not for the photo sharing.

I think this is what's going on with my girlfriend's 920. The past couple days she has been posting stuff that is private by default. We haven't figured out a fix yet

It was not a problem for my Lumia 800 (WP7.5), I don't know why 920 has such a problem...

Sorry, I had thought this was what had fixed it for me but I retested and that wasn't it.

Going to the Facebook Site -> Privacy Settings -> Apps provides the needed options. I set "Microsoft" and "Old versions of Facebook for Mobile" to the privacy mode I wanted.

I haven't shared any since Christmas, but I've had no problem with my 920. Everyone can see them.

Now I know the problem is on Facebook side, not Microsoft's. I guess Facebook have changed their API...

Thanks bro.
