Welcome!
SocialReviver lets you customize the social network Facebook in various ways.
SocialReviver is the result of merging FB Chat Sidebar Disabler and New Profile Disabler.
Features
- Disable the new Profiles and Pages layout ("Timeline") and return to the Classic 2011 Profiles. (NOTE: this is NOT an user-agent switcher!)
- Disable the new 2013 Home Layout ("Less Clutter") and return to the Classic Layout.
- Disable the Chat Sidebar and return to the Old Normal Chat.
- Use Friend Lists in Chat to limit your availability and group your Chat contacts.
- Don't let your friends know when you read the messages they send to you in chat (experimental feature).
- Link the name in chat windows titlebar to contact's profile.
- Revert the blue top bar to the old style one.
- Stick the blue top bar at the top of the window.
- Add a shadow below the blue top bar.
- Enable or disable extension features via a settings panel.
- And many other small but useful features!
(Please note that the new profile gets disabled only in your browser; your friends will see the old version of your profile only if they have installed this extension.)
