 * Let me explain what i am trying to achieve. I am using the theme Heatmap adsense
   theme and i want to be able to remove the default logo on the homepage as well
   as meta which has the links # Site Admin # Log out# Entries RSS # Comments RSS#
   WordPress.org. How do i go about this? I have been in the control panel under
   widget and the meta is not in the sidebar but on the right which means it should
   not appear right? so why does it?

 * I would 2nd doppyo’s answer.
 * If necessary, with the help of the [Template Hierarchy](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy)
   article, determine what [Template](http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates) is displaying
   your “homepage”.
 * If that fails, then provide a link to your homepage so someone might spot the
   problem.

 * Again, with the help of the [Template Hierarchy](http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Hierarchy)
   article, determine what [Template](http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates) is displaying
   that infor (probably sidebar.php) and edit that file to get rid of the pieces
   you dont’ want.
