    A couple of my posts requesting help in this forum have included my website URL and I do not want that to be shown on Google search results.

    How can I fix this?

    Please read http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Deleting_.2F_Editing_Posts

    We don't delete posts unless there's a compelling reason. Can you give us links to these posts.

    I think it's just this one... if you can take my web URL off that would be great...

    Dear Keesiemeijer, would you kindly remove the following link also or at least the URL

    It isn't very professional for a website to be describing potential faults publicly

    Thank you Christine,

    Would it be okay if I jumped on this post? I'm having the same problem with my URL displaying and it not looking professional. Also, I winded up using Dreamweaver instead so I can learn more about WordPress! So embarrassing :(

    I suspect you will have to wait until google changes their search results (we can do nothing to control that).

    It is not the general policy to edit or delete forum posts. When a post is made and people contribute answers to an issue, that then becomes part of the community resource for others to benefit from and deleting posts removes this added value. In extreme circumstances, members of the moderation team might be persuaded to remove sensitive information that has been included in posts accidentally - but your best course of action is not to publish anything that you wouldn't want to be public.

    Yours is not an extreme case.
