Following and unfollowing padlets

By default, you follow padlets that you have created and that you have been invited to as a collaborator. You can also choose to follow padlets that you have access to.

To follow a padlet, open it and click on the bell icon in the action bar. This will open the activity panel.

Then click Follow to receive notifications about the padlet.

If you are already following the padlet, you can access the activity panel to unfollow the padlet. You can also manage the padlets you follow from the Padlets tab in your notifications page.

Following and unfollowing accounts

When you follow another Padlet account, you can be notified when they create a new public padlet. To follow or unfollow a account, navigate to their profile page and click follow.

There are a few ways to find a user's profile page. If you know a user's username, you can go to their profile page by customizing this URL: padlet.com/<insert username here>

Here is an example: padlet.com/toothfairy

If you navigate to your own profile page, you can also click the copy link button to copy your profile link and send it to a friend or colleague.

Finally, if someone posts or comments on your padlet, you can click their display name to open their profile page.

If you are already following the account, you can visit their profile page to unfollow them. You can also manage the accounts you follow from the Accounts tab in your notifications page.
