[Wordpress] Blogroll won't go away... still public.

Hello,

I've deleted these particular links many times, but perhaps I'm just not thinking straight.

To clarifiy... the blogroll, meta data widgets, etc are showing up. I've deleted the actual links in the "Links" section itself and also made sure to drag them to "inactive" in the widgets area.

I'll attach what the widget area looks like and what the site itself is showing.

Thanks,

Mike

    Probably it is hard coded to the sidebar.php
    open up the sidebar.php file and delete the blogroll code.

      It appears that it is. If I delete the lines of code for those particular widgets, will I be able to still display them if I choose to drag them back in at a later date?


      Also, what would be the start and stop point? I think I know, but I want to be sure. Example:

      Code:
       
      <!-- archives -->
      <div class="widget">
      <h3>Archives</h3>
      <?php if(function_exists('wp_easyarchives_widget')) : ?>
      <?php wp_easyarchives_widget("mode=none&limit=6"); ?>
      <?php else : ?>
      <ul>
      <?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly'); ?>
      </ul>
      <?php endif; ?>
      </div>
      <!-- meta -->
      <div class="widget">
      <h3>Meta</h3>
      <ul>
      <?php wp_register(); ?>
      <li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
      </ul>
      </div>
      I've made what I think it should be in bold. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

      Thanks!

      Edit: The bold type won't display within that box. So to clarify, I had <!-- archives --> and
      <?php endif; ?>
      </div> sections marked. Correct? I'm aware there is another sidebar menu (Meta) within that.

    I tried to delete just the meta section. Upon updating the code, the homepage displays a URL/path for something that is missing. Apparently my thoughts above were wrong.
    Nevermind the above, I've removed it.

    Now I just have to figure out how to add a skype button to the sidebar. If someone happens to read this and can provide some insight, please feel free to let me know.

    Thanks for the help so far.
