Removing the “Showing posts with…” Label

I’m not super fond of that little box that shows up at the top of searches that I do for specific topics on my own blog. Pretty much unnecessary for the most part.

This is the one that I’m talking about:

Want to know a quick and easy way to remove it?

1. BACK UP YOUR TEMPLATE. I know it seems easy, but trust me ~ you just never know!

2. In your Blogger account, go to DASHBOARD ~ LAYOUT ~ EDIT HTML  and be sure to click the little box that says ‘expand widgets’.

3. Find the following block of coding in your html {you can copy the first line and use the CTRL + F keys to find the line}:

<b:includable id=’status-message’>
<b:if cond=’data:navMessage’>
<div class=’status-msg-wrap’>
<div class=’status-msg-body’>
<data:navMessage/>
</div>
<div class=’status-msg-border’>
<div class=’status-msg-bg’>
<div class=’status-msg-hidden’><data:navMessage/></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style=’clear: both;’/>
</b:if>
</b:includable>

4. Replace the above coding with the following block of coding:

<b:includable id=’status-message’>
<b:if cond=’data:navMessage’>
<div>
</div>
<div style=’clear: both;’/>
</b:if>
</b:includable>

5. Save your template and the box will be gone!
