Do articles that I am rereading count toward my story limit?
Visiting a story you’ve already read will only count once when viewed within the same calendar month.
How do I know when I reach my story limit? Can I track the number of stories I have already read?
You will be asked to sign up for Unlimited Digital Access once you have reached your monthly limit. As you read through stories on chicagotribune.com, on-screen notifications will keep you informed of when you are getting close to your limit of free stories, and when you have reached your limit.
Will I still be able to access chicagotribune.com stories through Facebook, Twitter, or search engines?
As long as a link or post on a social site or search engine is live, you will be able to click through to that story. We want to encourage Unlimited Digital Access subscribers to share links with their friends and followers who may not be subscribers yet.
Can I be a visitor to SportsPlus only?
Visitors can enjoy up to two articles at no charge, each month, across chicagotribune.com. You can read stories from any section until you hit your two article limit. There is not a separate limit for SportsPlus content.
I like the crossword puzzle and games. Do I need to be an Unlimited Digital Access subscriber to access them?
Access to crosswords and games is unlimited. You do not need to be a subscriber.
What about my newsletters?
You may continue to register for and receive our email newsletters without becoming an Unlimited Digital Access subscriber. The newsletter itself does not count toward your monthly story limit, but any stories you click on from your email to the site will be counted. Visit the newsletters page to register for additional newsletters.
Will other Tribune sites such as redeyechicago.com, metromix.com and chicagonow.com be affected?
No. The plan discussed only affects chicagotribune.com and its content.
