How To Invite All Your Friends On Facebook To A Page/Group/Event

The newly redesigned Facebook has made inviting friends to an event/group/page to be an even more complicated procedure. Why can’t they just make a “select all” button that works?




It takes a hell of a long time to invite seven hundred friends to a group or page when you have to click each one in turn. That is why i created this small piece of Javascript that will add an invite to all you facebook friends to a page in a few seconds:



Go to your event/group/page, click invite people and then paste this snippet in the URL field of your browser.

Left-click the mouse in the URL field and hit Enter. Your invitations will not be sent yet, but all your friends will be selected. Click the “Invite” or “Send” button on the Facebook page to finally send the invites.







Soi! Done in one go



UPDATE: Facebook has now came up with a solution to create lists of friends. You can create several lists, based on your own personal criterias, and add your friends to different lists, which you then can send event or page invitations to. I would rather recommend using this solution provided by Facebook, so that you don’t send information which might not apply to all of your friends.

To create a list, go to your Account settings, choose Edit Friends and Create new list. After you’ve created new lists you have an option to filter friends based on list names when you’re inviting friends to events or pages.
