  I have two issues I need editing help with. First, I want to hide my tags and categories. They’re cumbersome and infringe on the content.

  Second, somehow my links are in bold, which is very intrusive. It’s possible that some of the CSS editing I did caused that, but I can’t see where I “bolded” anything.

  This will get rid of everything under the post content, including the comments link. Due to the way they have the markup and CSS designed, I can’t leave the comments link. It is sort of redundant anyway since the circle at the right of the post title is also a comments link.

  .post footer {
  display: none;
  }

  Duster is designed with bold links everywhere. The following should get rid of all the bold links.

  .widget a, .entry-meta a, #content nav a, #site-generator a {
  font-weight: normal;
  }

  I’m back, sacred, with another question… When I go to the full content of a post (“more”) the text takes up only about half the width of the blog. I’ve tried to figure out how to widen, but am having no luck…

  The more tag, when clicked, puts the location of the more tag in the post right at the top of the browser window. The reason behind that is that you have already probably read down to the more tag, so you can then continue reading from where you left off.

  I understand… I should have emphasized that what I need is for the full content of the post to span a greater width. For instance, look at this post:

  http://garnetspy.com/2011/04/22/the-nlrb-fires-a-shot-south-carolina-can%E2%80%99t-ignore/

  Notice the wide margins on left and right. How do I reduce those margins and put more text per line?

  Change the % width here:

  .singular .entry-header, .singular .entry-content, .singular footer.entry-meta, .singular #comments-title {
  margin: 0 auto;
  width: 68.9%;
  }

  I would suggest not going much over 80% since very long lines of text are more difficult to read.
