  You did not specify a blog address or reason for posting when you created this topic.

  This support forum is for WordPress.com hosted blogs only. If you have a self-hosted WordPress blog you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums, not here.

  If you don’t understand the difference, you may find this information helpful.

  To remove widgets, on your Dashboard page look for “Widgets” under the “Appearance” tab. Look for “Current Widgets” on the right side and you should see the widgets you are currently using. To remove one, click the link that says “Edit”, then scroll to the bottom of the expanded widget and click the button that says “Remove”. When you’re done, click “Save Changes” below all the widgets.

  @statsapi: Do you have a wp.COM blog? If so, we need the link to it in order to give a relevant answer.
