Initially, it was hard to send invites to all Facebook friends to an event with a single click. A few years later, Facebook introduced a Select All option but discontinued it because users abused the button. People resorted to “invite” codes. It’s not complicated. Let me show you how to manually or automatically select all friends on a Facebook event.
Selecting All Your Friends on a Facebook Event
If you’re planning to host an event on Facebook, you need people to attend your event page. Rather than inviting strangers, look toward the Friends button on your profile page and invite them to your event. Use these methods to select all the users in the friend’s section.
Method #1: Manually Select All Friends
A while ago, Facebook introduced a Select All button on the Fan page. It allowed one to invite all their friends to an event or a page with a single tap. But you can no longer select all your Facebook friends with a single click. Since the Select All is gone, you can do it manually. Select a few people at a time. If you manually send all invites, you may appear as a spammy person. After creating the event, send invites to your friends. Do it using these steps. Select a few friends at a time until you exhaust the names on the Friends page. You can only send 500 invites in a single day. It’s exhausting if you have lots of friends on Facebook.
Method #2: Chrome Extension
If you have an extensive friends list on Facebook, manually selecting all your friends will take time. Thankfully, you can use third-party tools such as chrome extensions. A good chrome extension you can use is the Invite All Friends for Facebook. You need to use the same browser to access your Facebook account. Once signed in, add the extension and select all the users on your friend’s list on an event. Here is how to use the extension. Wait for a day before sending another batch of invites. Facebook hates spammy content and has rules barring users from sending lots of content or invites to other users at a high frequency. Apart from Invite All Friends for Facebook, there are other extensions such as Invite All, Facebook Invite All, or Facebook mass inviter. But remember, they may contain malware.
Method #3: Invite Codes
Invite codes keep changing now and then. On top of that, Facebook often fixes loopholes that allow users to use secret codes to invite friends to their events or pages. If you know how to use scripts or codes, use them to send invites to your friends. Most of these codes only work on Google chrome.
A Recap
Facebook doesn’t provide an option to select all the people on the friend’s list and invite them to an event. You can manually select and send invites to all your friends. The option is preferable if you have countable friends. Use extensions or scripts if you’re dealing with a long list of friends. But be cautious and limit the invites to 500 friends a day.
