Frankly, I thought it was an ugly internet rumor....but it's true! Most of the blogs I follow have switched over to Bloglovin . When we first started blogging I set up a Bloglovin account, but found that I couldn't pin to Pinterest. So, although I did like the layout of Bloglovin, I gave up and went back to Reader.
Tonight, I found out how to enable Pinning from Bloglovin and thought I would share. It's just a matter of changing your settings as follows -
1. Select Account 2. Select Settings
3. Scroll to the bottom and select - I don't want the frame.
I hope this saves you some grief and irritation! With this change, I'm Lovin' Bloglovin - How about you?
Hope you have a wonderful St. Patrick's Day!

Brilliant, thank you for showing us how to do this, it was driving me mad! Have a great weekend. Chel x
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome! I almost gave up on Bloglovin because of this.
DeleteHi, I'm sorry but I am new to blogging and I did the directions you said to do for pinning from bloglovin, but I do not understand it. Can you explain it to me and how it works. Thanks a lot I appreciate it. Jule
ReplyDeleteHi Julie! Hope this helps - If you don't have "I don't want the frame" selected you won't be able to pin a photo to Pinterest. I pin lots of images from blogs to Pinterest for future reference. If you haven't been introduced to Pinterest yet you are going to love it! Here's a link to my Pinterest boards - http://pinterest.com/jlsumruld/boards/
DeleteIf you have any other questions or need more help, please email me at jeanette@craftyincrosby.com and I'll try and help you figure it out. I know how overwhelming it is to figure all this stuff out!
Have a great weekend!
Hi Jeanette, I think I understand a little more of what you explained to me. Thanks, Julie
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this. I guess I'm gonna have to break down and switch over. I was hoping it was a rumor too.
ReplyDeleteBloglovin is a great alternative and I've heard that Feedly is good too.
DeleteHope you have a Happy Easter!
This is a great tip! I've switched my reading to Bloglovin' in preparation of Google saying goodbye, but I hadn't ventured to find a way to pin from it yet! Thanks for the info! I'd love for you to share this with our readers at the Pinterest Power Party!
