How to remove 'Subscribe to Post' link in Blogger

“Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom)” link is added to each page on a blogger blog.
This link is for RSS feed and is published on each page. Instead of this link hogging space in not so stylish manner, you can use feedburner subscription link or any swanky RSS feed icon.


For a newbie finding code to remove this link isn’t easy. Not to worry, login into blogger dashboard. Then click on Layout > Edit HTML and then search for "b:include name=’feedLinks’/"
Delete this line and the link will be gone. Please note, you should backup the template before making any changes. Click on ‘Download full template’ button located on the same page. More from Blogger world coming soon!


Removing Newer and Older Post Links in Blogger Blog

If you are using Blogger as blogging platform, you might be used to some of the built-in features, that you consider hard coded, but can be changed with slight template code modification. One of the hacks, presented in this publication, addresses a seemingly minor issue on the page - two links “Older Posts” and “Newer Posts” on the bottom of the page.

For those, who prefer their blog to be maximally close to the static webpages, these links not just unnecessary, but are plainly irritating. There is a way to remove them once and forever. And that is quite easy to do, even for not very experienced users. Note, that this hack will also remove “home” link from the bottom of the blog page.

Open Layout Tab in your blog profile page, choose Edit HTML, and search your code in your blog template for the following text:

#blog-pager-newer-link {
float: left;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
float: right;
}
#blog-pager {
text-align: center;
}


Now replace that code with the following code:

#blog-pager-newer-link {
display: none;
}
#blog-pager-older-link {
display: none;
}
#blog-pager {
display: none;
}


Save the template and you are done. I hope that was indeed an easy and straightforward one.
