Updating custom streams

Quickly add content, people, and places to any of your custom streams and your Following stream using any of these methods.

Tip: If you are already following something in a stream, you can see the notation Following in. If you're not following it, it shows Follow.

Starting following people, places, or pieces of content

To start following people, places, or pieces of content:

  • Use people hover cards. From any stream you're reading, hover your mouse over a person's name or avatar, or the name of a place, and click Follow. You can then select the stream in which you want to follow the person or place.
  • Use the Browse menus. Click People from the main navigation menu (may also be nested under the Browse button), or click Your Content or Your Places from the menu under your avatar, then browse for things to follow. You can also check the Recommended tab to see recommendations based on your individual activity and connections in the community. When you see an item you want to follow, click on its gear icon, and then Follow. Then select the stream in which you want to follow the content item, person, or place.
  • Use the Search feature. Search for keywords of things that might interest you. When you find something you want to follow, click on the item. From there, click Actions > Follow. Then select the stream in which you want to follow the content item, person, or place.
