Profile Settings:

You may need to change your profile settings. These profile settings will help you edit the following:
  • General Information:
        This includes the basic information like your first name, last name, user name, gender, location, email address, uploading image etc.
  • Hide:
    This allows you to hide or unhide your profiles from search engines. Turn it on for your blog profiles or if you want to show it public.
  • Unlink accounts:
        You can now unlink your accounts, if you wish to do so. Click on ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’ tabs to turn it off or on accordingly. Keeping all your accounts intact and linked will be a better choice.

  • Notification Settings:
        We would recommend checking these notification settings. It is a really nice option which gives freedom to change the way you are notified through email. You are notified when someone adds a pin, re-pin your content, likes your pin, comments on your pin or boards and follows you. But, the feature we like most is the frequency of these notifications. You can either get immediate updates or received it once daily. If you are not running a public blog you may prefer to have a weekly activity report. This report will help you analyze your progress with pinterest.
Save the settings.
