"Un-follow" Ideabooks, polls, questions, etc?

11 years ago

How do I un-follow Ideabooks, before-and-afters, polls, questions, etc, that I'm no longer interested in?

I'm a pretty active Houzz browser, so I find now that, if I ask a question of a Houzz Pro and they aren't able to answer right away (fair enough, most of the good ones are busy people), their answers are likely to be buried or lost forever if I've also clicked on a Poll or made some other comment somewhere, often on a subject which doesn't interest me enough to want to keep following it indefinitely.

If I could unfollow the stuff that no longer interests me, then I'd be better able to find the stuff that does interest me.

I use the iPad app, if that helps.

Many thanks!

Hi Emily - I mean, I'd like to stop getting them in my feed in the app. I think I can unlike when I'm looking at Houzz using my browser, iirc - it's an option at the bottom of an ideabook or a discussion? - but I do prefer using the app. Thanks for getting back to me!

Hi there, Do you mean you want to stop getting email updates or want to stop seeing the items in your activity feed?

Me, too. I don't want to see shared ideabooks from years ago, de-clutter my page. Possible?

Oh man, I'm glad I looked for this. I too would love a diplomatic way to opt out of shared ideabooks, and stop getting notifications for the ones I've been included in, but I am not interested in. I don't see a way to "stop notifications" in a shared ideabook, as there are for discussion threads.

You can definitely opt out of shared ideabooks by clicking on collaborate and removing yourself there. Currently, there is no option from just unsubscribing from notifications for them. Sorry about that! Thanks for bringing it up.

There really ought to be a way, an OBVIOUS way, to delete or unfollow shared ideabooks so they DO NOT SHOW UP ON MY IDEABOOK page when I am done with them. As is, I have to figure out the usernames of people I don't know and unfollow them under collaborators (people I did not individually add as "collaborators, incidentally), which is stupid. Please fix this. Stop what you are doing right now, and fix this.
