  I can’t find the answer to this question anywhere :(

  I am about to start adding a couple of dozen testimonials to my blog – which currently has none – and I don’t want my followers to suddenly receive dozens of emails.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Your subscribers receive only published Posts. They do not receive published Pages. https://en.support.wordpress.com/post-vs-page/

  Note this theme description page https://wordpress.com/theme/tortuga and also note https://en.support.wordpress.com/testimonials/

  Thanks. I took the plunge before I got your reply timethief and was glad it didn’t send notifications.

  I had actually already read all of the links that you provided. I think the confusion comes because whilst the testimonials page is clearly a page and not a post it’s not clear that the individual testimonials are not post – you certainly create them in the same way as posts.

  Perhaps the help pages could be tweaked for clarity?
