How to get rid of the Follow Blog Pop Up

    On my new blog there is this follow this blog pop-up. I am referring to a pop up that is down the bottom of the screen on a PC which can be made smaller. On an Ipad it doesn’t shrink so gets in the way. It says “Follow” on a tap on the right hand side of this box that pops up. The box then says ” Follow this Blog, Get every new post on this blog delivered to your inbox etc”. It says “this service is provided by WordPress.com.” I would like to get rid of it. I have looked at all the settings but can’t seem to turn it off.
    I’ve posted some photos on my photography site of the follow pop up I’ve been talking about. This is showing up on every PC I have had the chance to look at which is 3 and on my iPad.

    If you click on the photos they will be enlarged.

    Someone has subscribed to my blog using the follow this Blog pop up, so I don’t know if that now has something to do with why I can’ get rid of it but I couldn’t when there was no one subscribed.

    There are only two things in my widget area including an email subscription which I put there so I don’t want or need the follow pop up. I have looked up every widget on your widget to see if it’s any of them. I don’t think it is a widget.

    I have posted this on the forum and at this stage no one has been able to help. Others are also having this issue. Thanks for any help you can give.

    This is something that we’re testing in a limited capacity right now. At this time, there’s no way to remove it, but there will be when it’s done.
