7. Creating a board
Here’s how secret boards work on Pinterest: https://support.pinterest.com/entries/22277603
ou can create up to 3 secret boards. If you already have 3 secret boards but want to make a new
ne, you’ll need to delete one or make one of your current secret boards visible to everyone. If
ou’re invited to contribute to someone else’s secret board, it won’t count against your 3-board
mit.
When you add a pin to a secret board, it won’t show up anywhere else on Pinterest—not in the
ategory sections, Popular, Everything, anyone’s search results, your followers’ home feed, your own
ome feed, or even pins or activity pages on your profile.
our secret boards and pins are at the bottom of your profile. Just scroll down to see them.
On the web, there are 2 places where you can create a secret board:
rom the Add+ button:
. Click Add+ at the top right-hand toolbar on Pinterest
. Select Create a Board
. Give your board a name, say who can pin, toggle the Secret setting to ON. This makes your board
ecret.
