Today someone who is not in my friend list made a comment on a "Friends Only Feed" I made.
Related info that might help to keep track of the bug:

- I checked and the feed is really "only for friends", I didn't forget to tick the square.
- I've never added that user to my friend list. I've been years without adding new people to my friend list, so I'm sure I didn't do it.
- I also didn't contact him/her before by any other way such as palpad or private message, so I don't even know him/her.
- That user has been in pokeheroes for 5 months, so I don't think he/she is a "old friend" that changed his/her username (besides, as I said before, I've been years without adding new people to my FL).

Though this is not a big issue for me, as I made that feed just for friends in order to avoid bothering other people, it would be a big issue for those users who are really jealous of their privacy.


** I took some screenshots in case that they were needed to solve the bug, but to keep the privacy both from my friends and from the user who made the comment, I won't post them here.
I will send them in private to the mods/admin if required

Somehow this has happened again 4 years after i made this thread.

Today I made a "friends only feed" and one user that is not in my FL and that I've never talked to, gave a heart and posted on that feed.

Could you send a screenshot (through PM) of the Comments and your friendlist to confirm?

(so the user in question doesn't know)

~Lycario, nope, it wasn't that feed and you weren't the user in question.
When I'm bored and I don't get clickbacks I sometimes visit the online users to stay tunned about what is the userbase currently hunting, so nothing you should be worried about.

Anyway, the issue is already in the mods hands and they already have screenshots of it to keep track of the issue.
And just to clarify, it wasn't an important feed and I don't mind if a "not added friend" have read it, the reason of the thread is to avoid that people more jealous of their privacy than me possibly being affected by this same issue.

Check if the user added you. I have added some users, and when they post friend only feeds, regardless of whether they added me or not, I can see it. I think when i add a user, it thinks that I am that users friend, whether or not they consider me as their friend.

Quote from Pokeheroes wikiQ: Are people who added me as a friend able to view my feed activity, or do they have to be a mutual friend for them to have it in their notifications too?

A: They only need to add you in order to see your feeds on their notification page.
You need to be a mutual friend to see "Friend-only" feeds, though.

Third time that this same situation happens.
Not gonna repeat all the explanation cos the issue is the same that the last times, person not in my FL commenting and hearting one "friends only feed" of mine.

I hardly ever do friends only feeds, so I can't assure if this is happening always or sporadically

Is it always the same user? Do you notice that everyone can see your friends-only feeds, or is it always just one person?

No, they were different users the 3 times it happened.

And i can't say if it was one user or more in the original issue as it happened 5 years ago and i deleted the screenshot eons ago, but for the other 2 times it was just one person

Do you still have any screenshots you could send me directly? I don't think you've ever sent them to me.

Screenshots sent by PM, it took me a bit to dive into notifications to get the capture from 5 years ago, but there it is too.

Last time I did a report regarding this bug I sent the captures to Catlady, that must be the reason why you can't find them
