You can now follow posts about your favorite locations on Connect

To help you more easily connect with Local Guides in your local area or places around the world, we’ve created Favorite Locations on Connect. The Favorite Locations feature allows you to follow up to three locations and discover posts with those tagged locations.

You can add your top three locations in Settings or by visiting the Favorite Locations page on Connect. To see posts from your favorite cities, make sure to include the city, state, and country in the location field to search for it.

Once you’ve added the locations you’d like to follow, you’ll find posts with those tagged areas on the Favorite Locations page. In order for a post to show up in the feed, authors must tag the location in the Add a Location field of their draft. Please note that this will be the case for all posts tagged with locations moving forward, but it will not automatically update old posts. So, be sure to always tag locations in your posts before you publish from now on in order to enjoy this feature. You can also go back and update old posts with locations so they will appear in the Favorite Locations feed.

We hope this new feature will help you more easily discover posts in the places you care about most, no matter where you are right now.

@AngieYC this sounds like a great idea. Hey @AngieYC , while on this idea, why can’t we specify or set in our profile the language that we want to use on Connect and have that set as the default instead of having select the language just about on every second post we read.
