Facebook Logo[Script to Invite All Facebook Friends is Confirmed working 10/24/10 on both Pages and Events, in Firefox and Chrome you do have to wait through the delay while it does its magic. ]

Have you ever had a Facebook Event, Page or (old style) Group you wanted to invite hundreds of your friends to join?

I know you will be thrilled to learn that the long, painful, tedious process of individually clicking each ones picture is a thing of the past!

Now with a little Facebook hacking (trick)…. or wizardry… you can select and invite all of your friends to invite them with one single click!

Step 1: Get Firefox or Chrome Browsers
Step 2: Get Greasemonkey
Step 3: Get the Script
Step 4: (Optional depending on what you’re doing, see the video) Get the code:
javascript:elms=document.getElementById('friends').getElementsByTagName('li');for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === 'object'){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}

Step 5: Share it and let me know what you think!

At some time in the future this script to invite all your Facebook friends at once may stop working at least temporarily while the author updates it. Sudip has presented an alternative for for Selecting All Friends on Facebook, for Chrome that can be coaxed  into working on Firefox in a similar way that this script should also run on chrome.

I hope this gives one more way to speed up an otherwise boring Facebook task of inviting all your Facebook friends at one time!  I look forward to hearing your thoughts and I appreciate your feedback!

Stay tuned for my upcoming Facebook Training Course as well!

PS: Please remember that like any other tool this one can be abused and you should use it responsibly. Be sure to make Facebook lists of those who should and should not be invited, and after selecting all go back and remove all of those that are not appropriate to invite (but are usually a shorter list). Inviting all of our Facebook friends at one time is useful but please be careful with it.
