    Hello,
    I’m a novice with the new WordPress and started a new website. I have at the footer of my home page and about page a faint gray horizontal ruler/line and below that, the word, “Edit”. I did not set up my pages to include these things.

    My website has not yet launched, still private, but am wondering what custom CSS could be added to resolve this. The word, “Edit,” below the horizontal gray link is hyperlinked, too.

    Would greatly appreciate any assistance in how to remove these items, especially the word, “Edit.” Thank you.

  • The “Edit” prompt is only visible to logged-in admin users to allow quick access to edit errors in a page/post. If you have a coming soon/maintenance page you can temporarily disable it and view the website while logged out to verify that the edit link is not displaying for general visitors.
