The ability for a Community member to follow activities as well as be followed is established through two components:

The followcomponent must be associated with another resource, and this association is already established for existing Communities members and features in a community site.

The followingcomponent lists the members that are either following the current member or are being followed by the current member. This social graph of the relationships between members is included in the user profile established for a community site.
