  How can I remove a link from my Blogroll? When I click on “Links” in my widget menu, it tells me there are no options for this and allows me to either delete or close.

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

  Hi there,

  Unfortunately, your theme (Mistylook) is one of themes that does not have options like sorting or choosing which links in the Links Widget as seen here:

  If you need this feature it might be best to change your theme:

  Please let me know if you have any questions!

  Thanks for your response. Is not being able to edit it in Mistylook a new situation? I was able to edit my blogroll earlier this year, I’m pretty sure, since I removed a defunct blog from it several months ago.

  I really like the Mistylook theme and am sorry that it’s losing some of its functionality. Is this going to continue/worsen? I don’t really care for picture on the upgrade of the theme.

  You can remove links through your dashboard:

  Misty Look is a retired theme, which means that any new features we release will not be supported in it. As I’m sure you’ve seen, we do have an updated version called Misty Lake.

  Thanks so much for this link. I was able to modify my blogroll with it.

  I have seen the Misty Lake update, but I don’t really like the picture on the new theme. Is there a way to change it? I like the picture on the Misty Look theme so much better.

  Thanks again.

  Yep! You can definitely change the header image. Here’s a link to the header image from Misty Look:

  

  To use this image on another theme, right click on the image at that link and select “Save as..” Save the image somewhere on your computer that you’ll be able to find it.

  Then head into the Customizer on your site and go to the Header tab. Select “Add New Image” and select the image you just downloaded to your computer.
