  It used to be that you could remove the follow button via:

  Go to your Dashboard
  Settings → Reading
  Uncheck the option Show follow button to logged out users</em

  But now, that option isn’t there anymore in settings. Where can I remove the follow button that pops up on the bottom right?

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

  Hi @acupunctureinirvine,

  Where can I remove the follow button that pops up on the bottom right?

  That “follow” button is also known as the action bar.

  With CSS, you can remove it by pasting the following code into your Custom CSS tab located in your customizer.

  #actionbar { display: none; }

  Note, Custom CSS is available on Premium and Business plans only.

  @acupunctureinirvine, after much discussion internally, that option was removed several months ago. The only way to hide the follow button in the Action Bar now is with Custom CSS.
