  Hello,
  The external follow button does not appear when the user is logged into wordpress.com. Is there a solution without disconnected?

  Thanks

  I am logged in to WordPress and when I visit your site, I do see the “Follow” link at the top left of the screen. Is that what you meant?

  The Follow button is only functional for sites on WordPress.com. It won’t work for sites that are external.

  it’s strange when you’re not connecting the button works and allows you to subscribe to the wordpress.com account.

  Yes, but the site itself is a WordPress.com site.

  You can only follow a site with your WordPress.com account if it’s WordPress.com site. If it’s not, then you simply won’t be able to follow it, even if you have a WordPress.com account.

  When I disconnected and I click on the button on this site.
  I have to authenticate with my wordpress account and the site is added to my subscriptions. The player displays the articles. I am a subscriber.
  This is fine but if I was already logged into my account wordpress.com I do not see the button.

  There is no alternative but to disconnect from worpress.com to be able to click on the button?

  On this page (Follow Button Creation) it’s write :

  The follow button is a small button that you an add to any site, that will allow WordPress.com users to easily follow the specified WordPress.com or Jetpack enabled blog.

  The site zabou.foxou.fr has Jetpack enabled.

  This is the WordPress.COM support forum. You need to post to the WordPress.ORG support forum for help with your site because it is not hosted by WordPress.COM.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org are completely separate and have different logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support forums http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Some JetPack solutions are here http://jetpack.me/support/
  Others are in the JetPack support forum at WordPress.org
  http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack
  Note: If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.org, click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post there.

  However, if you can’t find help at either one then you can file a JetPack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service
