Is there a way to be online to those only in a certain group?

I made a group for my contacts that I actually talk to. Is there a way I can only go online to those in my group and offline to my other contacts? Thanks! :happy:

Hi, katherine-h, and welcome to the Community,

 

The short answer is, "no."  Skype does not provide a facility to select who we set our status settings for; it's a "global" setting.  Whatever we set our "status" to, that is what everyone sees.

 

Kind regards,

Elaine
