Offensive automatically generated links

For anyone who visited recently and noticed the offensive automatically generated links below the comments section, I apologize.  Thank you to Michelle for bringing them to my attention.  It’s a feature automatically included with WordPress blogs that I wasn’t aware of, not that it was there or what it did – I’ve now cancelled it.  (Even if I had been aware of it, I would have expected it to generate links to the kind of thing I write about, family centered topics.) 

If anyone notices something like this that looks like something I wouldn’t want there, assume I don’t know it’s there and please let me know.  This is a new blog platform for me and I’m not familiar with all of its features yet.

Thanks!

    Hi! I’m having this trouble, too. How do you cancel the automatically generated links? I can’t figure it out! Thanks so much for your time!

    It’s upsetting, isn’t it?! When I saw what was showing up below my posts I was almost frantic!

    Go to your dashboard, and about 2/3 of the way down on the left you’ll see ‘Appearance’. Click on that, then click on ‘Extras’. It will give you three choices: yours is probably set at ‘enable mShots’. I set mine to the third choice, ‘hide related links on this blog’.

    Good luck!
