    Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to help with this simple problem.

    I am using the twentyten theme in WP, and if I put a site title into the customization area in the control panel, I have a double link on my webpage. The double link appears about an inch and a half above the bottom of the screen and stays fixed when I scroll. It is not in the content box, and I can not figure out how to delete it.

    I have deactivated all SEO plugins, and hansel and gretel breadcrumbs, but it is still there. I cannot use a site title like this, so I fi cannot figure this out I am going to have to move my content box up to delete some of that white space where the header goes.

    Please let me know what you need to look at. I have the site title deleted at the moment because I cannot have that site title link covering my content. Thanks…

  • Hi Nathan. When I checked your site earlier there was a “grass” image at the bottom of your page. That was generated by this block of code which contains a link to your site. My guess would be that, whatever is creating this is also picking up your site title. This was also displaying a small, round WP logo just above the grass towards the center of the screen: 

    <div id="grass">
  <div id="site-info">
     <a href="https://www.theothersideofthefence.org/" title="" rel="home"> </a>
  </div>
  <div id="site-generator">
    <a href="https://www.ads-software.com/" title="Semantic Personal Publishing Platform">.</a>
  </div>
</div>

    The title doesn’t move because it’s enclosed within the div #grass which is fixed to the bottom of the screen:

    #grass{background-repeat:repeat-x;background-position:left bottom;width:940px;position:fixed;bottom:0px;height:118px;z-index:5;background-image:url(/wp-content/themes/twentyten/images/grass.png)}
#grass{background:#fffff url(/wp-content/themes/twentyten/images/grass.png) repeat-x;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto}#footer,#grass{width:940px}

#site-info{font-weight:bold}
#site-info a{color:#000;text-decoration:none}
#site-generator{font-style:italic;position:relative}
#site-generator a{background:url(/wp-content/themes/twentyten/images/wordpress.png) center left no-repeat;color:#666;display:inline-block;line-height:16px;padding-left:20px;text-decoration:none}
#site-generator a:hover{text-decoration:underline}

    However, I now see that the grass image is gone so maybe you’ve already discovered the root of the problem.

    Hi Nathan. No worries. There are several forums from which to choose, all listed here. Open the forum you’re interested in and scroll to the bottom of the page to find the New Topic form. If the form isn’t present you’ll most likely see a note stating “Only moderators can post or move things into this forum.”
