stuff on static page that i cannot seem to get rid of

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,
    I am trying unsuccessfully to get rid of some information on my static page.

    The website is: https://israeltearegistry.wordpress.com

    I am interested in getting rid of the stuff on the right:
    קטגוריות

    אין קטגוריות
    ארכיון

    and the stuff on the left – which looks like this:
    קישורים

    Discuss
    Get Inspired
    Get Polling
    Get Support
    Learn WordPress.com
    Theme Showcase
    WordPress Planet
    WordPress.com News

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

    Hello there!

    It appears as if those items may be the widget titles. I am going to give you some CSS code to add, to hide that text. However, if it doesn’t get rid of everything, it would be very helpful if you could send me the English translation of the Hebrew you’re trying to hide.

    Click Appearance → Customize in your site’s Dashboard. Then, click CSS in your right-hand menu. In the CSS Revisions box, please paste the following underneath all existing text:

    .wf-active .widgettitle {
    display:none
    }

    Then Save your changes.

    Please let me know if that helps. It should at the very least rid you of “קישורים” which I believe is the Links label.

    Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

    Thanks for your quick reply.I tried what you suggested and there was no change.

    קישורים – on the left means links
    i did find and delete all the links but the word in Hebrew still appears
    I tried under screen options, un-clicking appearance of the links, and it also did not help

    קטגריות – on the right means categories
    below it in Hebrew says “no categories”

    ארכיון – on the right means archives

    The above is for the website: https://israeltearegistry.wordpress.com

    thanks

    Hi Dr. Zinger!

    Thank you for the additional details! I had given you code to adjust the original site you mentioned in your post: doctorzinger.com.

    Let’s adjust https://israeltearegistry.wordpress.com to hide those sidebar items. What you are seeing is unused widgets. Although you have an empty primary sidebar, your theme is automatically adding default widgets to your site. In order to hide those, please click Appearance → Widgets. Drag a Text widget into your primary sidebar. You do not have to populate the fields with any content. Click Save on the widget.

    When you return to your homepage, the default widgets should disappear, as you’ve added a “dummy” widget to take their place.

    I hope this helps! Best wishes to you. Let me know if I can help further.

    That was very helpful!

    However, there are still 2 stubborn holdouts –
    On the left is:
    1 קישורים – which means links
    On the bottom is:
    2 עריכה – which means editing

    How do I get rid of these??

    Hello again!

    The Editing link isn’t visible to anyone but you. That link will be displayed when you’re logged into WordPress.com. It allows you to click on it and edit whichever page you’re looking at.

    I’m looking further into the Links label. It seems to be appearing as a result of the CSS used to hide your search bar. I’ll get back to you with an answer asap.

    Thanks!

    Here is your solution for hiding the Links label.

    You’ll do the same thing you did before, but you’ll add the Text widget to the Secondary Sidebar:

    Click Appearance → Widgets. Drag a Text widget into your secondary sidebar. You do not have to populate the fields with any content. Click Save on the widget.

    Let me know if you have any other questions. Cheers!
