  So on my blog the follow button and the email newsletter signup thing show up in the footer. How do I edit this so that they show up in the header, so that people actually see them.
  Thanks,
  Anish

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You could create a Subscribe page, provide the blog subscription shortcode on it and then add that Page into your custom menu.

  Create a new page https://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/#create-a-new-page
  Blog subscription shortcode http://en.support.wordpress.com/blog-subscription-shortcode/ You can also include the subscription shortcode at the end of every post you publish.

  Create a custom menu https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#1-create-a-custom-menu

  Add menu item https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#2-add-menu-items

  Organize your menu and add sub-menus / drop-down menus https://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#3-organize-your-menu-and-add-sub-menus-drop-down-menus
