  Hi, under my current free plan I have the Gateway Theme. Under the contact page it seems to display my personal info (email, name, etc.). I would hope that all of this would be left blank for others to fill in their info if they’d like to contact me. But I don’t want my actual info public. Is there a way to solve this? To have the contact sections empty rather than display my info?

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

  There is an Admin Edit link on posts and pages that only you as Admin and any Editors you have created can see when you are logged in. It’s for your convenience and your visitors cannot see it. You cannot remove it as it’s coded into the theme templates and we cannot edit templates or themes.

  I wish I had seen this thread first! I had the same problem, and not wanting my personal info. to show, deleted the contact page, planning to just add it again. But it seems more complicated than that. Is there a tutorial to help me create one again? Or can I re-download my theme?
  Thanks!
