Wix Blog: Using the Members Area in Wix Blog
3 min read
Create a community to keep your readers engaged! The Members Area is the ideal place for blog members to get to know each other and interact.
Here members can choose to follow posts, subscribe to the blog and customize their notification preferences. They can also edit their personal profile pages.

Member profile pages
With the Members Area installed on your site, site visitors can view each members profile page. In addition, they can see their public blog activities (posts they've written, comments they've made, etc.).
Public member pages
The following blog pages are public and can be viewed by any site visitor:
- Profile
- Blog Posts
- Blog Comments
- Blog Likes
Private member pages
Some pages are private, meaning that each member can view their own pages, but other members do not have access:
- My Drafts
- My Account
- Notifications
- Settings
Site's with member-only pages
When a site visitor logs in, they are logged in to all parts of your site. Some parts of your site have their own special member sections. For example, if you have Wix Stores on your site, customers can log in and access their "My Orders" page, where they can view store orders.
