There may be times when you want to block a blogger from following you or selectively block them from specific ways of interacting with your blog, for whatever reason you want. You can also see a list of all blogs that you have blocked.
To block a blog, the blog has to be following you first.
Here's how to block a blog:
- Click on the Menu icon, represented as three verticle lines (one of the four main homescreen icons)
- Under Blog, select Followers
- You will now be on the My Blog Followers management page
- You will see two tabs - Followers and Blocked
- Click on Followers and you will see all of the blogs that are following you in the column "Blog", with a number underneath the tab that shows you how many blogs are following you
- From the Followers tab, select "Block" to block that follower
- The blocked follower will be moved to your Blocked tab
- You can always click Unblock to remove the blog from your blocked list
Here's how to look at the list of who you're blocking:
- Click on the Menu icon, represented as three verticle lines (one of the four main homescreen icons)
- Under Blog, select Followers
- You will now be on the My Blog Followers management page
- You will see two tabs - Followers and Blocked
- Click on Blocked and you will see all of the blogs that you are blocking in the column "Blocked", with a number underneath the tab that shows you how many blogs you are blocking
- You can sort your Blocked list by either Most Recent or Alphabetical
- You can always click Unblock to remove the blog from your blocked list
There are advanced options available to you when you block a blog. You can customize what interactions you want blocked for a blog.
To selectively block specific ways for a blog to interact with you:
- To the left of the blocked blog, you will see nine checkmark boxes
- Click the pencil icon to check/uncheck your interaction choices. Checking a box indicates that the blocked blog cannot interact with your blog using the checked feature
- The pencil icon will turn into a computer disk icon when you are editing your interaction choices. Click on the disk to save your choices
- You can choose to block a blog from Ask, Submit, Message, Chat, Comment, Like, Reblog, View, and Follow

This is not working. If you are not a follower but completely blocked, the blog that blocked you, can still be found. If you enter the name of the blocked blog into the search bar, the blog will be found and accessible. Please fix this problem. Thank you very much.
https://malibubobby.newtumbl.com/ this blog has been blocked however they are still accessing my blog and continuing to harass me!!!
Please fix this problem!!!
update10/10/20: still being harassed by malibubobby.newtumbl.com.
And I’m being harassed by another blog. Why have you not fixed this problem!!!
if a blog is not a follower and you block them with no permissions whatsoever that blog should not be able to access your blog!!!
thats what block should do regardless if they are a follower or not!
same..it doesnt work at all
I don't understand why blogs that have been blocked are still able to access/ see post/ enter act with my blog. Even going as far as to deny any permissions they are able to like, share, whatever from my blog page!!! This is a serious issue and should be or should have been resolved already!!!
This is probably why newtumbl sucks a smelly asshole.
Fix the problem!!!
