They look like widgets, have a look in the widgets menu and see if you can remove them from there.
Sam I moved the “category” widget from inactive/active widget to right side bar and the recent post disappeared, still there is “category” widget showing.
What/where else could I do to remove that?
What template would that be?
Not knowing your technical skills here, so this might be over your head, but in appearance > editor, there might be a file called sidebar.php, in this file it might be setting a default sidebar widget. If you remove that then it will go.
Otherwise, have a look at your pages template (normally pages.php) and see if there is something in there.
Here is the right side bar code:
<div id=”right”>
<?php if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘right_sidebar’) ) : ?>
<?php dynamic_sidebar(‘right_sidebar’) ?>
<?php else : ?>
<div class=”sidecolumn”>
<h3>Recent Posts</h3>
<?php wp_get_archives(‘type=postbypost&limit=10’); ?>
<h3>Archives</h3>
<?php wp_get_archives(); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div><!–// right –>
You can try commenting out the sidebar bits, if this gets rid of them then you will have a widget active within your widget menu.
<div id=”right”>
<!–
<?php if ( is_active_sidebar( ‘right_sidebar’) ) : ?>
<?php dynamic_sidebar(‘right_sidebar’) ?>
–>
<?php else : ?>
What should I replace “active” for in order to take that out of my page?
I’m not too sure what you mean.
If you add into your code the <!– –> comment tags like I demonstrated, does this remove the “Categories” title on your page?
If it does, go into your WordPress admin, then the widgets page, click and drag anything that is in the right had column out of that column.
If there is nothing there, then I’m not sure, have a look at any other files that might be used and see if you can find the word “categories”
dynamic_sidebar() is used when you have widgets selected in the admin menu, so double check there
