    Pic of my follow button

    As you can see, it doesn’t appear like a Twitter Blue Follow Button.
    So the first problem is that the image does not appear correctly.

    The second issue is that when you click the Follow button it is supposed to open a smallish new window that lets you follow the account.

    Instead clicking it just directly takes you to my twitter page.

    I tried this on your website and strangely enough, the first time I clicked it it also opened into your twitter page (in same window, without opening a small window).
    Then every time after that it functioned correctly wheN i clicked it.

    Image of what I mean by it opening small window (correct function)
    Small window opening

    Edit: these are my settings

    It seemed to work when I looked at it just now.

    Do you have Do Not Track switched on your browser? If so, the Twitter-provided code to run the button is not run since this includes tracking code.

    Alternatively, have you switched off another plug-in? If these crash JavaScript they can have unexpected effects.

    Hey Martin thanks for replying. I tried in Safari and you’re right, it appears correctly.

    After switching off DNT in Chrome , it now appears correclty

    what is strange is that I originally found your plugin being used on another site, that’s how I discovered Rotating Tweet, but that site displayed the button no problem even with DNT. strange!

    I can only think that they hadn’t updated their plugin recently…?
