Remove - Subscribe to: Posts (Atom) from Blogger

In many Blogger templates, there is a "subscribe to: Posts (Atom)" link, so that the blog visitors can subscribe to the Atom feeds. Considering the fact that many readers use RSS for their blog feeds, many of you may find this link pretty useless. Moreover it occupies space at the bottom of the template and it doesn't look nice at all. In this case, you might want to remove it.

How to remove subscribe to: Posts (Atom) link?


Step 1. Log into your Blogger account, then go to "Template" and click the "Edit HTML" button.


Step 2. Click anywhere inside the code area, then press the CTRL + F keys to open Blogger' search box


Step 3.Find (CTRL + F) the following line:
<b:include data='feedLinks' name='feedLinksBody'/>
Step 4. Remove it and click on the "Save Template" button to save the changes. And that's it! This should remove subscribe to: posts (atom) link.

  1. I did the "remove subscribe to: Posts (atom) link" and then did the "read more" hack. The subscribe to: Posts (atom) link show up on the page after I click read more. How do I remove it from that page as well. I appreciate your feedback. I love this site. Thank you for creating it.

      I guess you were asking about the facebook badge on the right.

    1. I agree with you Courtney, as the "expand widget templates" is not there. Anyone else having our problem?

    2. Hi Courtney, I found out how to do it! I went to line 929 and inserted the line of code ".feed-links { display:none !important; }" before the code of "" and it worked. I used this article with the combination of this article: http://itnoor.blogspot.com/2013/05/remove-subscribe-to-post-atom-in.html, to figure it out. I thought I would share with you to help you out also! Best of luck! Kourtney
