How do I look up someone to follow them? How do I find the Community area from the front page?
- It will!
MicrosoftHey Amy, Melanie is asking two questions above. Here are the answers to both.
1) How do I look someone up? Use the search bar to type in their name and press 'Enter'. Then filter the search results by 'Users'.
2) How do I find the Community area? Use the nav menu in the top left (hamburger menu). The response that 'it will' was to the ask that we make this area easier to find (as in, it will be). I am not positive why that was chosen as the accepted answer :).
Hope that clears things up.
Ah I see. Thanks MichaelHolste - I think Deleted's question was also how to follow someone - so you might be more likely to see posts from them. Is that possible?

Amy, to follow someone, hover over their name > view profile > follow.
Mike, will that follow action do anything outside the network (e.g., send notifications) or does it prioritize that content in the few messages displayed at the bottom of the Home page?

Within this platform, "following increases the ease of private messaging a user. It allows for a tab within the private message screen to display people you’re following." Unfortunately, it doesn't send notifications.
