Hi there,

How do I follow a persons blog here? I want to get notified whenever a user posts to their blog. do I just follow that user or is there something special to just get their blog posts?

follow the user

i dont think u can follow a blog

BaronVonChickenpants

In that case, would I get an alert when the user makes a new post to their blog?

 

If not, how do I know there is a new entry to read?

Yes, you will get notified whenever the user posts a new blog post if you’ve followed them.

Not necessarily. If, in https://www.chess.com/settings/notifications, "someone im tracking posts new content" is unchecked, you wont get a notif

Oh, ok. But you have to first uncheck it correct? 

Also I think people can put some sort of privacy thing on their page so people can’t track them. Is that true?
