The Blogger Followers Gadget Is Broken

Blog owners ask about Followers activity, in Blogger Help Forum: Get Help with an Issue.
I can't Follow my Followers!
They appear to be referring to the Followers gadget, which is currently useless for surfing.

We observed this problem, almost 6 months ago - and it's been reported to Blogger Support, several times.

What is interesting is that Followers itself is working just fine - unfortunately, not so many blogs will have a custom Followers gadget.

The standard "Follow Me" gadget. in the sidebar, is broken.


There's the gadget, on my blog.



This is what I get, when I click on any icon, in the Followers cloud - or the popout window icon, in the upper right corner.


Look at the custom Followers gadget, in this blog - which does work!

I have a custom, full page "Followers" gadget, in this blog - and it continues to work.


That's the custom Followers gadget, on my static page.



I can click on any Follower, in my custom gadget Follower cloud.



And there's the details for that Follower - and opportunity for surfing, from the Follower selected.



And I close the Follower popup window, and I'm back in my custom Follower gadget display.



Not so, with the gadget in the sidebar.



I click on the popout window icon - and get the Followers cloud, opened inside the IFrame. How do I surf, with this?


So, Following itself works OK - it's just the standard sidebar sized gadget, that is broken.
