TimTheMiles Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hello IPS, I'm not sure if you all have heard this one before, but being able to view who you Follow would be super nice! I run a fairly large website where users post a lot, which really racks up the Notifications if you FOLLOW a lot of people. And members are constantly asking me to see a list of the members they Follow. But the only list available is a list of members who Follow you. I don't really see the purpose of only having the one, but not the other. Can you all please add this feature?

Simon Woods Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 You can get this through "Manage Followed Content" and choosing the "Members" filter. Another way would be to go to, for example on this site, to this URL: https://invisionpower.com/followed/?type=core_member&change_section=1 Basically, add "followed/?type=core_member&change_section=1" to the end of your site's URL and you should see that.

Ah, but then only you personally can see it. I want it to be an option to make it public. Like Follower is now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Woods Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Ah! Okay, I get it now. When you mentioned notifications I assumed you meant for personal use, since a public list of who you follow doesn't seem to have any bearing on the issue of high volume notifications.

Oh you are correct, it doesn't have any bearing. So the things you suggested is going to be great to tell my members from now on. But it doesn't completely help me, because I want it visible for others as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Woods Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I agree, though: A public "Following" list does seemingly make sense, specifically because "Followers" is already public as part of the core software. Sorry to do this but I'm gonna poke this your way, @Lindy since it seems like the whole "Followers/Following" set up is a part of social engagement and the like?
