How do people sign up without being asked

  • Unknown's avatar

    I started this page because I want people to be able to “signup” and follow the posts. I want them to be able to fill in the information themselves and be added with me having to ask me to do anything. Thanks.

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

    Hi there!

    Anyone with a WordPress.com account can follow your site without you having to do anything. Also, anyone who’s logged out can input their email address and follow your site without your intervention.

    Can you tell me more about what is actually happening and what you’d like to happen instead?

    I guess it hasn’t been up long enough. I thought it would have the question at the bottom that asked people if they wanted to subscribe.

    We try to make it as easy as possible for your readers to subscribe to your blog with or without a WordPress.com account. There are some follow options built into your site already. Anyone who is logged into a WordPress.com account will see this Follow button at the top of your site:

    Anyone who is not logged into a WordPress.com account will see this at the bottom of their browser window when visiting your site:

    In addition, we have two widgets that you can add to give your readers easy ways to follow your blog.

    1. The Follow Blog widget adds a box where viewers can subscribe to your site via email.

    2. The Follow Button widget adds a button that WordPress.com users can click to follow your site.

    The email options will not require your followers to create a WordPress.com account. However, they will need to confirm that their subscription by clicking a link in a confirmation email from WordPress.com.

    Let me know if I can help with anything else!
