How to Remove Featured Image

1. Open the 'Posts' menu on the left side of the WordPress dashboard menu. WordPress displays a list of the posts that are in published or draft status on your website.
2. Click 'Edit' under the name of the post that you want to remove a featured image from. The word 'Edit' appears when you hover the mouse pointer over the name of the post. WordPress opens the post editing screen and displays the contents of that post.

3. Scroll to the 'Featured Image' section in the post editor, and click the 'Remove Featured Image' link under the image that you want to remove.

How to Create a Free WordPress Blog Badge

1. Design a strategy to encourage your followers to use the blog badge. You could start a post on 'The 100 best blogs in [your niche]' and create badges for 'Top 100,' 'Top 50,' 'Top 10' and so on. Then, email the relevant code to the websites. Alternatively, you might simply ask your loyal visitors to help you by writing a dedicated post about the badge and asking people to put it on their sites.
2. Create a badge. If you have graphic design skills, you can open Photoshop or a similar program and get to work. If not, ask an artistic friend or use a free logo generator such as the one on Cooltext.com. Regardless of how you design the badge, remember that you want it to stand out enough that it will be noticed and people will click on it.

3. Log in to your WordPress account. Go to 'Media' and click 'Add New.' Upload your badge to your website by clicking 'Browse' and locating the image file on your hard drive. Once you have uploaded the file, copy the text next to the 'URL' text box -- this is the location of the image on your website.
4. Determine the code that is needed to place your blog badge on another blog or website. Use the following format, replacing the example URLs with your own:



5. Advertise the badge on your website. Start a new post, telling people about the badge and providing the code you developed in Step 4. Alternately, you can place a small message on your WordPress sidebar by going to 'Appearance,' 'Widgets' and dragging a 'Text' widget to the sidebar. Add your message and the code for your badge to the 'Text' area.

How to Check the RSS Outputs for WordPress

1. Sign in to your WordPress admin area.
2. Click 'Settings' and 'Reading' in the menu on the left.

3. Click the button next to either 'Full Text' or 'Summary.' Full text makes your entire posts available in RSS. Summary outputs only a portion of your posts. Click 'Save Changes.'
4. Click 'Posts' and 'Add New' in the menu on the left.
5. Create a test post. Depending on what you are trying to check with your RSS output, you will want to enter different things in your post. If you just want to see that the feed works, enter a few lines. If you want to check more advanced features like formatting, fonts and images, then enter the appropriate information to see those features.
6. Click 'Publish.' Wait awhile and then check your RSS feed in your RSS reader. Depending upon the service you use to download to your RSS reader, you may need to wait anywhere from a few minutes to a couple of hours.

How to Make Your Own Free WordPress Template

1. Change the color for the text of the name of your blog under the 'Site Name' box. Type in the name of your blog or upload the logo you would like to use. Change the body size of the text. You can view the changes on the blog to the right.
2. Position the sidebar, if you would like one. You can insert the text bar into a specific position on the right or the left. Also, decide if you would like a third column. In the next box down, choose what components you would like to appear in your column(s).

3. Choose your blog background color and any background items you would like to appear. You can insert your own background items by typing your URL into each drop-down box. Move to the next box and adjust how you would like your text to appear. This includes both headings and regular text. Remember, this dictates the texts you'll be able to use on your blog, so choose carefully.
4. Decide on the Tags, Archives and Search options. When you're satisfied with your template, preview it. If everything appears OK, choose 'Save' and then download it onto your computer into a place that you won't forget. Each of the separate files, such as 'index.php,' are separate templates.
