So this is a question but is there a way to follow a particular member to receive notifications whenever that member posts? Thanks.

I don't think there is a follow type of feature offered here. But if you go to the person's profile page, off to the left are links. One of them is to display their latest posts. You should be able to bookmark (to your browser) any member's link to find their latest posts.

Interesting feature Cindy... I raised the question as a new feature on the TapaTalk Support Forum this morning...

Using a PC, the forum doesn't appear to offer it. So could it still be possible to have it as a feature via TapaTalk, Fred?

As far as I can see, in Tapatalk if you click on a member's icon a button +follow (actually +seguir in my Spanish version) you can achieve this.

TapaTalk is the forum's underlying software... Someone has altered/customized it way back when...but once the underlying feature is there, I'm sure JDeg can turn it on... Many of the "other" Photography forums are TapaTalk based... so TapaTalk is the place to start to get the feature. TapaTalk is always mucking about with my forum software by adding features...

Just an update... Tapatalk's folks don't like the feature. They think it's creepy and gets abused too much. As Nestor mentions, there's a "follow" feature that's pretty much neutered and doesn't do very much and is turned OFF here...

Sorry Cindy... I think it's a good idea... but looks like the powers that be don't think so...

I thought vBulletin is the forum platform. Tapatalk is a plug in to interface with the mobile app.

vBulletin has at least one mod to allow following users - https://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=293491
