    I am just updating my site and converting pages to posts – this is one See link below) but there are others all the same. There are rogue links embedded at the top of the page above / part of the title. In visual or code view these links do not appear so I cannot remove them. Can anyone suggest why they are there and how to remove them. Many thanks, Gary

    Those are previous post / next post links. Most themes put them at the bottom.

    You can hide them via this css:

    .navigation {
    display: none;
}

    To add or override CSS: use the “Additional CSS” option in the customizer. https://codex.wordpress.org/CSS#Custom_CSS_in_WordPress

    Learn to use the Chrome Developer Tools or Firefox Developer Tools to help you see and test changes to your CSS.

    However, it’s probably a good idea to move them to the bottom of the post.

    As you have a custom theme, check with the theme’s developer(s) for assistance with that change.

    Those are called breadcrumbs… they are a navigational aid for posts and are either part of your theme or added by a plugin.

    I’d keep them but you’ll want to space them away from the title a little bit to keep them from messing up the article titles.

    Ahhh thank you so much – I understand what they are now … the trouble is I can see them when I look at the actual live post but going into the back end viewing by visual or code they do not appear so I cannot change positioning to space away from title or add at the bottom – I guess there must be somewhere specific to do this ? Any further help on this front would be appreciated. Sadly I do not know how to implement CSS. FYI I am currently converting all pages to posts and will then ditch the existing custom theme and implement a standard WP theme..
