The Pinterest Follow Module

    With the Pinterest Follow module, users can follow a Pinterest feed of your choosing with one click in the module.

    Adding Pinterest Follow Modules to Content & Apps Views

    All modules are added to a View in the same way with our drag-and-drop interface. To get more information on this, see the Building a View: Adding Modules and Content to Views in Content & Apps help article.

    Once you have added a module and given it a name, the module will open for you to edit it or add content. Back on the View layout, you'll see a callout bubble next to your module - click the triangle for controls for your module. This callout will not appear on your published View and your new module will not appear on your Facebook Tab until you click Publish.

    Adding Pinterest Accounts to Pinterest Follow Modules

    When you drag-and-drop a Pinterest Follow module onto a View, it will automatically open to the edit page for that module. To add a Pinterest account to a module you've already created:

    1. Next to your Pinterest Follow module you’ll see a callout bubble. Click the green triangle next to the title to show your options.
    2. Click Edit Module. You will be taken to the Edit Pinterest Follow Module section.
    3. Enter the Pinterest username of the account you want users to follow in the text field provided.
    4. Click Update.

    Your module will now appear on your View with a button labeled: Follow Me on Pinterest.

    When a user clicks the button, they'll be taken to the Pinterest page, where they can follow all the boards, or just select boards.
