Simple setting to turn off community posts appear on your Google+ profile

This tip is very helpful for those who normally share posts/content on their Google+ communities.

By default, whatever you share with public on Google+, it appears on your profile page. That’s fine. But, if you share the same post on multiple communities where you are a member, then your profile viewers start seeing the same post that many times on your profile. It looks spammy and annoying right?

But, Google+ has a setting that lets you prevent showing up your communities posts on your profile page. Below are the steps to enable/disable that option to turn off community posts.

  1. Login to http://www.plus.google.com
  2. Goto Home (top-left) -> click on “SettingsGoogle plus profile settings
  3. Goto Profile section -> just uncheck “Show your Google+ communities posts on the Posts tab of your Google+ profile” option.turn off community posts on Google plus profile

Done.

Note:  The community posts will be visible to members of those communities regardless of whether you enable/disable this setting.
