I have just set up my blog using Fluid Blix 2008.12.26 theme and at the top it has a page called Subscribe which came with the template. I need to remove this page but it is not listed in my page section.
Can anyone tell how to remove this?
Thanks

Can you please post a link to your blog so we can see exactly what you're talking about? :)

Sorry about that. m4bmarketing blog
(Sorry for the wait; my browser unexpectedly crashed after viewing someone else's blog.)
Without looking at the template itself I can't be positive, but it seems like the link to the Subscribe is potentially hard-coded into the Header template itself (provided that the navigation strip/bar is in the Header file and not in the Main Index or elsewhere).
If that is the case, then you will need to go into the Theme Editor and open up the header template and edit out the link and coding that goes with it.
The Subscribe page seems like it might be a template page as well or at the very least, another file included in with your theme. Are there any extra pages or files in your theme folder?

Thanks for your reply. I am not technical so forgive me if I ask some basic questions. I have gone into theme editor, but not sure what to look for to edit. Also in the theme folder there were pages called contact and archives but I was able to just delete these from the wordpress dashboard.

There is code at the bottom relating to subscribe but it doesn't appear if I include it in this post
In the header.php file, can you find this link in there that looks something like this:
/feed/
This is what that Subscribe tab is linking to.
The full link path is: http://www.m4bmarketingblog.com/feed/ but will most likely show up as /feed or /feed/ or feed/
If you can find that, can you copy and paste the code that contains that link?
I'm going to download that theme to my account and open it up and have a looksee.

There must be a link just below the wp_list_pages() function in header.php file, just comment/remove that.
<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>">Subscribe</a></li>

I appreciate your help. I could could not find anything that looks like that in the header.php file.
Found it.
In your header.php file, delete this bit:
<li><a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>">Subscribe</a></li>
and your Subscribe link should poof. :)
@kapil: Sorry about posting what you said!
