How To Unblock Someone On Pinterest (Web)
To unblock someone on Pinterest (Web), open the person’s Pinterest profile by searching the person’s name or username. Now, click on the “Unblock” button to unblock that person.
Here’s how to unblock someone on Pinterest (Web):
1. Open the profile page
The first step is to look up the person’s name or username in the search bar.
Simply enter the person’s name and hit the search button. Find the correct person from the list and click on their name to open that person’s profile.
I have found that it is easier to find a person by their username than by their name. If a person has a common name, locating them becomes extremely time-consuming.
So if you know the person’s username (for example, @owr_test), you can just type it in to avoid having to go through all that hassle.
