 * I activated Jetpack, and am trying to use the subscription feature. However, 
   the link doesn’t seem to be active. How do I fix this problem? Also, I activated
   the “share” features, as well, but they don’t show up on my site:
 * TheCubanReuben.com.
 * Please help.
    Thanks.

 * It looks like the share function is working.
 * Have you dragged the subscription widget into the sidebar & clicked the SAVE 
   button?

 * You are right, the share function is now working, but the subscribe function 
   is still giving me trouble.

 * The Subscription widget seems to work now. Have you found a solution to the issue
   by yourself?

 * [@jlstempel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jlstempel/) That’s great that
   you found a solution.
 * What was it?

 * I mistook the showcase sidebar for the main sidebar, and had accidentally moved
   the widget to the showcase sidebar section. Once I figured out my error, and 
   moved the widget to the main sidebar area, the issue was resolved.
    Hope this
   helps.
