[resolved] Removing 'Subscribe by email' and 'RSS' from posts - DISQUS issue? (7 posts)

    I'm trying to work out how to remove a couple of items which are appearing on all my blog posts. Check out the link below:

    And then below the DISQUS comments box, you will see the two links. From what I can work out, it looks like it is part of the DISCUS comments box.

    Any ideas how I can disable these two links, and whether it has anything to do with DISCUS?

    It's Disqus.

    If you view source, you'll see the dsq-subscribe-email class wraps around them. Which means, y'know, disqus :D

    Go to http://disqus.com and see if they have directions.

    Ah yes, I see. Thanks - learning as I go (from a very low level!).

    Found the right link on Disqus, sent support an email.

    Any ideas how I edit the CSS for Disqus to amend that? Assume I need to edit the source code, rather than on every post each time?

    You edit your theme's style.css

    I've had a look, can't find any reference to Disqus in the theme's style.css?

    Well ... yes. That's the point :) You're supposed to ADD those to your theme to teach it how to handle the display.

    I spoke to Disqus, within the plugin there is an area where you could enter the code.

    All done, working fine now, but thanks for the assist!
