Absolutely love the zBench theme but cannot find a way to remove the little RSS Feed button from the sidebar widget. What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for any tips.

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

Do you have a custom design upgrade or not? Without it there is no Theme Option for removing it and I’m not sure you can gide or remove it with a custom deign upgrade as I don’t help with CSS editing Also note that removing it does not remove the feed. There are multiple feeds built into WordPress.com blogs. The format is well known so you cannot prevent anyone from subscribing to your RSS Feeds.

edit: “gide’ was meant to be “hide”

I was just trying to see if there was a check box I was missing which would allow me to ‘hide’ the feed reference that appears in the widget sidebar. Don’t need to kill the actual feed link.

I tried adding an RSS feed widget in the hopes that it would detect it and remove it from the top of the sidebar section, but it is persistent.

Don’t have a custom design upgrade and I understand that it may not be possible, even with the CSS access.

Thanks for the list.

It can be removed with CSS.

.sidebar #rssfeed a {display:none; }
