Can I unsubscribe a subscriber?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello Happy Engineers! I hope you all have a wonderful Valentine’s day. I have couple questions: First one is: How do I get rid of the “Join the other xxx followers” from my blog. I would like to keep the amount of followers private.

    The second question is: There is an ex-boyfriend that is still subscribed to my blog and even though that is incredibly flattering I also find it kind of creepy…haha :) Is there a way to remove followers from the system?

  • 1. You can remove that by unchecking the option in the widget itself at Appearance -> Widgets.

    2. While you aren’t able to remove followers from your public site you are able to control your privacy options at Settings -> Privacy. There you can set a site to private and have full control over who can access and subscribe to content. We have more details about this at:

    For public blogs anyone can subscribe and while each user can remove their own subscriptions we aren’t able to manually remove followers for you.
