Visitor unable to find follow button

    A visitor commented that they couldn’t find a follow button on my blog. I assume that means to follow in WordPress reader? I already have an email subscription field. Is there a way I can add this follow button somewhere? I tried adding a new block in the site Editor view but cannot find any ‘follow’ besides the email one. I’m not a premium user.

    Thanks

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

    Hello storymaker3,

    A visitor commented that they couldn’t find a follow button on my blog. 

    Could be one of two things. When logged in to their WordPress.com accounts, visitors should be able to see a Follow Blog button, and when they follow the blog, your posts will automatically appear in their reader feed .

    The follow button in reader appears automatically as long as your site content is appearing in the reader . I searched your site and, the follow button is showing in the reader

    and on the posts too,

    Check again with the visitor if they were logged in to their account so that they could follow. This guide will also help with the reader following if they wish to follow ,

    Read posts from all the sites you follow (even the ones that aren’t on WordPress.com), find great new reads, and keep track of your comments and replies in one convenient place: the WordPress.com Reader. Your Reader displays posts across all the sites you follow in the order they were published, with the most recent content appearing at the top. You’ll see an excerpt of each post, an image

    Hope this helps .
