  4. Find the member you want to block

  6. Click on Block User



Block User



What happens after you block a user?


The next time they reload the page or if they try to log into your community, they will see a message that they have been blocked from your community. Blocked users are free to join other communities but will be blocked from yours until you unblock them.


Please note that we will automatically cancel a blocked user's subscription in most cases so please be sure when performing this action.

How do I unblock a user?


The same steps you took to block a user, you can repeat and if a user has been blocked, you should see the Block User option replaced with a Restore User option.
