How do I unhide hidden on Facebook?

• To unhide a post on Facebook, select the Activity Log from the three-dotted menu near your cover photo. 
• Once in your Activity Log, unhide a post on Facebook by clicking the "Filter" link and choosing the "Hidden from timeline" option.  
• You can unhide a post on Facebook in both the mobile app and in any web browser.

Facebook provides a quick and easy way to hide a post you've created without actually deleting it. This is convenient for removing it temporarily from your timeline.

But what happens later, when you want to unhide the post and restore it to your timeline? 

You can unhide a post on Facebook on a desktop browser or the mobile app through the Hidden from timeline filter in your Activity Log located in the three-dotted menu of your profile page.
