How to follow an observation

[Linda Jo Conn]

I used to see a "Follow" tab on observations and was given the option to either follow the observer or follow that particular observation. 

I do not see it now.  Has it been eliminated or am I doing something wrong?

I found it a valuable tool for keeping up with ID's of interest without personally chiming in with iffy ID's or worthless comments.  

Tried to search Google Groups to see if this has been addressed recently, that that is too onerous a project for me tonight....

Thanks in advance for your help!

Can you post a link or screenshot to where you would expect it but no longer see it?
I see it still on Identify (underneath the date to the right of the map) and also on individual observation pages (top right).

I am in my dashboard.... not the observation identify mode.... 

This observation was randomly chosen from one of the nearby Texas counties I follow.  I am not aware of a problem there.  

It is just that when I visit an individual observation, I do not see the "Follow" tab....

That is odd.

Do you have any script blockers running?  Maybe restarting the browser/clearing the cache would help.

Linda, does refreshing the page make it appear? Definitely a bit odd.

Like Mirko suggests, it looks like your Adblock Plus plugin is blocking 2 things on that page. Perhaps one is the follow button?
(which would be super weird, since I also use ABP and it doesn't block anything on iNat)

Thanks, folks.... I do not know if I did anything or someone else helped behind the scenes.....  

the FOLLOW button now appears on observations I visit on my Dashboard.   Hooray!!!!

I love iNat!

It blocked it for me, I disabled it for iNat, now the "Follow" button is finally back :) I also reported it to ABP ("blocks too much").
