  Below each post there is a buch of auto generated text that I would like to memove. There is a link to my feed but since I use feedburner I don’t want to show the direct link. I also want to customize what it says, but I can’t find where to make the change

  Are you talking about “related posts (automatically generated)”? If so here’s how to disable it:

  Related Posts

  If you’re talking about the post meta block (“This entry was written by..”) you can hide it with CSS – I see you already have the CSS upgrade. Something like this should work:

  div.entry-meta { display: none; }

  If you don’t want to hide it completely, try using a different background or text colour to set it apart from your post.

  Thanks for the fast reply!!!
  Yes I meant the meta block. I find the related posts useful.
  Won’t google frown on hidden text?
  I guess there is no way to fully turn it off then?

  There’s no way to turn off the HTML. Hiding it with CSS is totally acceptable though. display:none is a legitimate design method that’s very common – Google only frowns on it when it’s used for mischief or spam.
