 * You (the admin) are the only one that sees this link, so why not leave it? It
   makes it convenient to edit a post. If you do want to get rid of it, delete something
   like the following from your theme files:
 * `<?php edit_post_link('Edit This', ' ', ''); ?>`

 * Hey, If it was in my back office only I wouldn’t care, but its on my website.
   There’s nothing like the code you stated in my theme file. Anybody else got an
   answer. Thanks

 * Again John, ONLY you see it and only when you’re logged into your admin panel.
   And yes the code is there somewhere, maybe not exactly like iridiax suggested
   but it’s there. Post the code for your index.php and let me take a look.
