Fans Tab
The Fans tab shows two things:
*Bullet*Members and items you’ve become a Fan of
*Bullet*Members who are Fans of you

For more on Favorites and Fans, see My Favorites and Fans.

You can access the Fans tab from your main Portfolio page (Portfolio/Portfolio in the left navigation). Click the down arrow next to the Community tab, then select Fans.

How It’s Organized

*Bullet* Left column:
Shows members who are Fans of you. They’re listed by when they became a Fan, with the newest at the top. A total count appears at the top.

*Bullet* Right column:
Shows members and items you’ve chosen to Fan. Member Fans appear first, followed by item Fans—both listed newest first. Totals are shown separately.

Managing Member Fans

You can manage your member Fans directly from this page.

*Bullet* In the left column, each member has a heart icon showing your current status:
*HeartGr* = not set
*HeartBl* = Favorite
*HeartY* = Fan
You can click the icon to switch between Favorite (black) and Fan (gold), or set one if none is set (grey).

*Bullet* In the right column, members display a Fan icon (gold heart).
You can toggle this to switch between Fan and Favorite. If you change a Fan to a Favorite, it will no longer appear here after the page refreshes.

To completely remove a Favorite or Fan from a member, go to your main Favorites page or the Favorite Authors page.

Managing Item Fans

Items do not display a Fan icon on this page.

To change or remove a Favorite/Fan for an item, visit:
*Bullet* The item’s page, or
*Bullet* Your main Favorites page

What Others See

When someone else views your Fans tab, they’ll see icons based on their own Favorite/Fan status for each member.

Access Settings

Click the gear icon in the top right to manage who can view your Fans tab.
