Do I have to upgrade to business to get rid of those childish ‘Share this’ buttons?

  Really, I just want to remove social media icons from all my pages. They don’t show up on the default home page, but they show up everywhere else. Doesn’t seem to be an obvious way to hide them or trash them in css.

  Because nobody grown-up has those on their web site. Maybe if it was my personal ski pictures site, sure. Not a business site.

  Is WP seriously going to charge me $200 for that?

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

  Oops. Created two WP accounts, because I couldn’t easily find out how to wipe one out to the ground state. The blog I need help with is. pattest3.wordpress.com

  The way I like to change this is to uncheck the places where sharing buttons will appear. I personally don’t like them on pages but do keep them on blog posts. See this page for all the details on how to edit those buttons: https://en.support.wordpress.com/sharing/

  Just uncheck the boxes for “Show sharing buttons on” and you’ll be set. Definitely no upgrade required.
