The Recent Posts section is there because you have selected the showcase template for your front page: just edit the page and select the default template.

Presumably you CAN hide it in CSS, but I'm afraid I don't know how. Maybe staff will weigh in.

I believe that's a footer widget. You should be able to wipe out all widgets in that footer by going to your Widgets page on the dashboard and, if you can see the widget, remove it. If you can't, then put any widget into the footer and take it out again; that wipes out the widgets WP.com has preloaded your blog with.

I have got the custom upgrade for the site and want to remove the footer "Recent Posts"
My site is a generic Church site and not a blog.
I am a novice at CSS and HTML.
Would anyone be able to advise an "easy" fix please?

You can hide the recent posts section on the Twenty Eleven Showcase Template page. Try this to see what I mean:

.recent-posts {
display: none;
}

You could also use the default template and eliminate the title and extra white space at the top using custom CSS if you'd like. Can you please post back if that's something you're still interested in doing?

@timethief: It helped a bit, but left several un-awnsered questions. I posted a follow-up comment on the thread for clarificaiton. If you have any further insight or CSS to share, I would appreciate it.

I would like to create a clean home page on my site micjammac.com. I am currently using the showcase template because I like that it eliminates the title from the page. I understand that it isn't possible to eliminate the 'recent post' section of the showcase template. Is it possible to use the default template and eliminate the title and extra white space at the top using custom CSS so the page looks like the showcase template without recent posts at the bottom?

Not to worry. We all make mistakes when we first begin. Now you understand I'm sure this won't be repeated. Best wishes with your blog.

My sincerest apologies. This was not meant to waste your time.

It's the first time I've used WP forums and was having trouble finding the original posts, so I thought perhaps I had done something incorrect.

Thank you for your time.

Re-posting the same question doesn't increase your chances of getting a reply, it only wastes our time.

Yikes I forgot an important word above. I meant to type:
If you don't want center justification then choose the Default Template in the Page attributes module, rather than choosing the Showcase Template. Simply edit the pages and in the Page attributes module select the default template make the required change and then click "update".

HI all,

I've twiced posting this infomration twice, but when I return to the forum to see if anyone has responded, I can't find my topic. I checked of notifying me of followup posts via e-mail so hopefully that will help.

I have used the 2011 Theme twice and for some reason when I set up my last blog using the theme, the content on the Pages are centered. It is doing this automatically. Can this be changed? The Home page looks typical, but the other pages I've created are all center justified. I'd like to left justified.

Here is an example:

Help & tips are appreciated!

Hi there. The easiest way to avoid showing the full Twenty Eleven Showcase template on the home page is to not use the Showcase template there.

Under Pages, edit Home and choose the Default template instead.

Then add the image and text directly to the page, and save.

Hi,
I have been having troubles both with Duster and the new Twenty Eleven.
I would like to have a clean home page, preferably featuring an image and some text.
I am succeeding at creating one, however as you scroll down, you can see the most recent blog post as well as the links to previous posts. Is there a way of getting rid of that?

artprop on "Bug? Can't revert to "Default Template" in Page Template"

artprop — Tue, 20 May 2008 16:20:43 +0000

In bobsmiscellany.wordpress.com I am using the "White as Milk" theme.

I suddenly noticed that there were Page Templates in this theme. So I started playing around and tried out "Links" and "Archive".

Soon found out that these (maybe all Page Templates?) blow away your own content and your sidebar. So I tried to revert to the Default Template. But this time Save did not work. It insisted on keeping the last non-default saved. Something to be fixed sometime?

(I worked round this by saving the page as title "Search" and making a new "About" page.)
