UsersWP Followers Addon – Add Follow/Unfollow Social Features to User Profiles
The UsersWP Followers Addon is a premium extension for UsersWP that brings social “Follow” functionality to your WordPress community. With this addon, users can follow and unfollow each other — similar to platforms like Twitter or Instagram — and display follower/following counts on profile pages. It’s ideal for increasing engagement and building social interaction within your UsersWP-powered site.
🔑 What the UsersWP Followers Addon Does
The UsersWP Followers Addon adds a Follow button to user profiles and lets visitors follow other members. Once a user follows someone, their profile shows up in that person’s Followers list, and the followed user appears in the Following list. Both lists are displayed in dedicated tabs on user profiles.
📌 Core Features
- Follow/Unfollow Button – Adds a user-friendly follow button to profile pages so members can follow and unfollow with a single click.
- Followers & Following Tabs – Displays organized lists of accounts a user is following and accounts that follow them, right on the profile.
- Dynamic Counts – Shows follower and following counts on profile pages for quick visibility.
- Profile Integration – Seamlessly integrates into UsersWP profile layouts (both default and custom templates).
- 100% Translatable – Fully supports multilingual sites with complete localization support.
