Follr-Behind-the-Scenes-290x300Hello again!  This week on the Follr Blog we’re going to be taking a look at another exciting feature for your Community: Changing your Theme.

One great thing about Follr is that you can really make your Community page your own.. you can let your creative side out and design to your heart’s content!

Let’s take a look at how you can change the look and feel of your Community page.

First log in to www.follr.com and create a Community page if you haven’t already done so.
Then click on “Communities” at the top and then the Pencil icon or the “Administration” link next to the Community you wish to update:
