I've seen quite a few posts on this issue, but all point to using a remove_action function to remove the RSS links. This may work, depending on your setup. But, considering that many users are probably customizing the default Twenty* WordPress theme, the process is both different and simpler.<\/p>\n

Within your functions.php, simply comment out the line:<\/p>\n

\/\/ add_theme_support( 'automatic-feed-links' );
\n\t<\/code><\/p>\n

Now, as other posts suggest, you do need to add back the post feed.<\/p>\n

<link rel="alternate" type="application\/rss+xml" title="<?php bloginfo('name'); ?> RSS Feed" href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" \/><\/code><\/p>\n

This post was actually conceived by the fact that the comments RSS link actually produced a 404 error, so it's certainly a good idea to remove it if that's the case for your blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
