it is obviously caused be the ‘older posts’ link:
try and remove this area of code from index.php:
<p>
<div id="nav-above" class="navigation">
<div class="nav-previous"><?php....?></div>
<div class="nav-next"></div>
</div><!-- #nav-above -->
This code doesn’t seem to be in my index.php file, I ran a text search for it too but returned nothing.
It would be in the loop.php in the twenty ten parent, or loop-index.php in a child theme.
Another less destructive way to do this for the whole website is in the style.css, at the end of the file add:
Removing with Style
/* style added by KC */
#nav-above {
display: none;
}
Removing with Code
When you have no choice but to remove code, it is better to remark code rather than deleting it, so it can be restored if required, and is easy to find where a change has been made!
