  I am having a problem with what appears to be a mystery widget entitled “About Greg lamm” that is stuck at the bottom of my blog posts and at the bottom of my published portfolio posts.

  Here is a link that shows the problem if you scroll down to the bottom:

  The Rebel redneck with the Canadian accent who rescued our summer camping vacation

  The “About Greg lamm” item is between the Like button and the Category and Tag items when you scroll down.

  At a minimum, I would like to correct the lower case “l” in my last name. But ideally I would like to get rid of the “About Greg lamm” item all together. But I cannot figure out how to access it. I have looked in the Dashboard at Appearances-Widgets, since the “About Greg lamm” item looks like a widget. But it is not there.

  I have checked here:

  http://about.me/greglamm

  And I have checked here:

  https://wordpress.com/settings/public-profile/

  I also have checked here:

  http://en.gravatar.com/lammgl

  No luck figuring out why the “l” is lower case or how to spike the thing so it doesn’t appear on the page.

  I also have tried to trace it back by looking for this:

  http://greglamm.com/author/lammgl/

  But I cannot figure out how to get to http://greglamm.com/author/lammgl/

  I wonder if there is some code stuck somewhere that keeps making this appear. If anyone can provide assistance, I would greatly appreciate it.

  That is NOT a widget. Very few themes have an author profile that displays below every post and Twenty Ten is one of them.

  In most themes there is no such feature and the data derived from here > Dashboard > Users > My Profile > About You (section) does not appear on the blog, it appears appears on your Gravatar profile page only. http://en.gravatar.com/lammgl

  If you delete the data from the About You (section) it will be gone from the blog and from your gravatar profile page. But you can copy and paste it onto an About page to have it display there.
