How does "Revert Site" work?

Once installed, Revert Site accesses Facebook via a slightly different URL when visiting certain pages on Facebook, so that it will show you the old Facebook design for those pages, and those specific pages will open in the old Facebook design / layout. (If you have any already open Facebook pages, just reload them to see the change)

Can I easily switch between the Old Facebook design and the New Facebook design?

Yes, it's really simple, by default after installation the Revert option is turned on, but if you want to temporarily turn it off to go back to the New design, just click the "Revert Site" icon Revert Site button icon in your browser's extensions toolbar (which is right next to the Address / URL bar at the top of the browser) and un-tick the checkbox to toggle which version of the Facebook design you want.
Please note: If the Revert Site button is not showing in the extensions toolbar, it may be hidden behind either the "Jigsaw puzzle piece" button: in Chrome/Edge/Brave/Vivaldi etc or the "Overflow" button: in Firefox

Known Issues / Will any problems arise when using Revert Site?

General: There may occasionaly be some slight anomalies when using Revert Site, so sometimes the functionality of the site may work a bit strangely, but if you find any issues that prevent you from achieving your goal, its simple to temporarily toggle the Revert option off, via the extension button in the browser's extensions toolbar.

General Some pages may not revert at first (such as Business/Fan Pages, but if you reload the page they will reload with the old design

Newsfeed / Personal Profile pages Please note Revert Site cannot revert the Newsfeed or Personal Profile Pages, it can currently only revert Group pages, Business/Fan Pages, and Events back to the old design.

Notifications Notifications on reverted pages only show notifications for Pages, so if you don't run a Page you will not see any notifications. Personal Notifications and Group notifications won't show, so you will need to visit a non reverted page such as the Newsfeed or your personal profile page to see the full notifications list.

Search The top level search box on reverted pages does not work correctly (use the one on non reverted pages instead)

How can I uninstall or disable the "Revert Site" extension?
