 * Hey guys, I’m having trouble removing some links that automatically appear to
   link one post to the next. For example on this page [http://ketsdeverconstruction.com/2011/08/02/fountain-valley-remodel-1/ ](http://ketsdeverconstruction.com/2011/08/02/fountain-valley-remodel-1/)
   there is a link on the top that says << Jim S. of Huntington beach. I’d like 
   to get rid of these links all together but I’m not sure how. Any help is greatly
   appreciated!

 * Look in your theme’s loop.php and change this:
 *     ```
       <?php if ( is_single() && ! is_page() ) : ?>
               <div class="post-nav clearfix">
                   <p id="previous"><?php previous_post_link(); ?></p>
                   <p id="next-post"><?php next_post_link(); ?></p>
       ```
   
 * to this:
 *     ```
       <?php if ( is_single() && ! is_page() ) : ?>
               <div class="post-nav clearfix">
       ```

 * I didn’t find that but I did find this :
 * ‘<?php /* Posts navigation for single post pages, but not for Page post */ ?>
   
   <?php if (is_single() && !is_page()) : ?> <div class=”post-nav clearfix”> <p 
   id=”previous”><?php previous_post_link(); ?></p> <p id=”next-post”><?php next_post_link();?
   ></p> <?php do_action(‘graphene_post_nav’); ?> </div> <?php endif; ?>’
 * So I just removed it and tried it. Seems to work. What do you think? Could removing
   it have a negative effect? Thanks for your help!

 * Yes. When you update the theme, your changes will be gone.
 * Insert this into the theme’s Custom CSS option instead:
 *     ```
       .post-nav {
          display: none;
       }
       ```
