Many of the active VKontakte users liked to leave notes on their page. For some, they were akin to blog entries, others wrote down their favorite quotes from books and films, others wrote poems. In a word, the notes could say a lot, a lot about the owner of the page.

Therefore, it was natural for many regular “contactees” to be surprised when the unexpectedly familiar “My Notes” tab on the left panel disappeared somewhere. Plus, notes on other people's pages were no longer visible.

And they returned

In fact, the notes did not disappear without a trace, as some managed to think badly about the developers social network. We received the answer to the question of where to find VKontakte notes from the support group.

It turns out that now VKontakte notes open with home page. Go to your wall and click on the number of posts. A window will open containing the “My Notes” and “My Notes” tabs.

The official version of such a move of notes from a separate tab to the wall is as follows:. There were many users who created a note on their page to store their passwords, bank card numbers, addresses, codes and other secret information. Of course, these kinds of notes were made available only to oneself, but the old privacy settings often failed, and if the page was hacked, a ton of incriminating evidence would come out on the poor user.

Therefore, now everyone who wants to write a note just for themselves can create a small private group and create their notes on the wall there. Alternatively, on wiki pages. (This is what the support response says).

However, even now you can make a note visible only to yourself. To do this, you just need to go to the settings where VKontakte notes are stored on your wall, and set up privacy so that no one but you can see or comment on your note.

Where are the friends' notes?

Notes from friends and other users can be found in the same way as your own. To do this, you need to go to a friend’s wall and click on the number of entries there. A tab will open with notes that you can read and leave your significant opinion about them in the form of a comment (if this, of course, is allowed by the owner of the page).

If you have been an active member of VKontakte since its launch, then you know how many changes the social network has already undergone. The design was adjusted, some functions and sections appeared, others were removed. Today we will be a little nostalgic and remember such a section as VKontakte Notes. You probably think that you won’t be able to read your old posts. But we will tell you how to find them and recreate the thrilling memories.

What are Notes?

For the old-timers of VK it was a cult time. A time when users posted text publications on their pages and anxiously awaited ratings from their Friends. But among those reading this article, there are probably those who have not even seen the notes section. We will conduct a small educational program for them.

The appearance of VKontakte Notes occurred at the launch stage of the service. The section was part of the standard ones at that time, so all newcomers to the social network became familiar with it. At that time, the VK Wall itself looked different, and the form of publications was different. If today you immediately post all your thoughts on the Wall, then Notes were used for these purposes. For the most part, these were sentimental texts - prosaic sketches, poems, reasoning and reflections, etc.

Contact users could read the post and add a comment to it. But there were no likes yet, so the popularity of posts was assessed by the number of comments left. By the way, it was impossible to “share” the texts you liked: the function was simply not provided.

At some point it became clear that the Notes were noticeably outdated. They were no longer so interesting to users and were updated less and less often. But the developers still tried to transform the section, adding new functions in 2011 - the ability to publish with music and photos. However, this did not save the section from “death”, and soon it ceased to exist as an independent one.

Where are Notes now?

Logical questions: where did the VKontakte Notes go and is it even possible to find them in the VKontakte space? Don't worry, it's all yours electronic notes, made in VK, have been preserved. It’s just that the management of the social network decided to remove the section itself, and you won’t see it in the main menu of the site.

Why was this done at all? And for the reason that the social network was undergoing serious changes: it was gradually transferred to a blog format based on the template of the well-known Facebook. Hence the structural transformations within the already familiar site.

However, there is another explanation for the decision taken by the VC leadership. In the Help Desk, where many users contacted, they talked about the need to change the format of Notes in order to protect personal data. According to representatives of the social network, users often used notes in “contact” in order to save passwords, codes and other important information. At the same time, security and privacy settings often failed, risking revealing confidential data to third parties. To avoid such situations, it was decided to transfer all previously written Notes to the Wall, where to this day you can find your old publications. And for storage important information The support service suggests creating posts in a private group.

And, of course, now we’ll tell you how to look at those treasured notes you left on the “contact” pages. We proceed as follows:
1. Go to your VK profile (My Page);

2.Go to the “My Posts” tab on the Wall;

3.Click on “My Records” again;

4.Go to the “My Notes” section.

Voila! 4 simple steps - and you can go down the waves of your memory. What a blessing that the notes function is gone, but they themselves are not.

By the way, there is an alternative option for moving to a long-forgotten section. You can simply enter a direct link into the address bar of your browser: http://vk.com/notes. This will probably be even easier.

There is, of course, a BUT. In this case, it hides the impossibility of searching for your old records through an application for iPhone or Android smartphones. However, you can go to Safari or any other browser you use and type the above link into the address bar.

It’s difficult to say how correct the management’s decision to delete VKontakte notes was. But today few people remember them, and the new format of the site seems quite harmonious and understandable. Well, you can always indulge in nostalgia using the methods we told you about above.

The ability to publish your own notes on the VKontakte social network is a very useful and necessary function. However, sometimes it becomes necessary to delete notes from VKontakte due to the fact that they have lost their relevance, the profile owner has stopped liking them, or for some other reason.
