  …how do i add my blog name in as i cant find where i need to change this text.

  You don’t have to add anything there. WordPress knows who clicked the follow button, and immediately adds the website that you’re on to the blogs that you follow. You can also use the follow tab in the WP navigation bar at the top of the window, which, unlike the one at the bottom right that you refer to, remains visible when you are logged in. You can edit blogs that you follow here: https://wordpress.com/following/edit/.

  It doesn’t add the website though, that’s the problem, if go onto my website http://www.fatgirlslim123.wordpress.com and scroll the follow tab comes up on the right-hand side in the navigation bar as you say but if you press it you will see it says follow “” rather than follow “fat girl slim” i can’t send a screen print so that’s the only way to show what i mean, hope that makes sense.

  …if go onto my website http://www.fatgirlslim123.wordpress.com and scroll the follow tab comes up on the right-hand side in the navigation bar as you say…

  The “follow” or “following” tab appears at the left of the nav bar, just to the right of the Reader tab. No scrolling is required to see it.

  …but if you press it you will see it says follow “” rather than follow “fat girl slim”…

  Clicking the follow tab should result in the website you are on being one that you follow. It is not to be expected that the result of clicking the Follow tab results in a message saying

  follow “fat girl slim.”

  Rather,clicking the follow tab should have the following two-fold results:
  1. The tab changes from Follow to Following.
  2. The website that you are on when you click “Follow” immediately becomes one that you are following. It will also immediately become one of the websites in your Blogs I Follow list. If these two things don’t happen then something is wrong, and I suggest that you add a “modlook” tag to the sidebar here to call for staff attention.
