This article is about how to hide your blog's attribution gadget using a CSS rule.  

It is part of a series about removing the attribution gadget from blogs which have designer templates.

WARNING:  

---

I have not checked the Blogger Terms and Conditions to find out whether you are allowed to remove the Attribution.   Even if they don't mention it today, a requirement to keep the statement could be added tomorrow.   This advice does not mean that I, or Google/Blogger, are saying that you should/can/may/must remove the attribution statement.

Previously I have described what the attribution gadget is, and the concerns that a number of people have with it.

It's been a bit of a cat-and-mouse game with Blogger since I put up my first post on the subject:  I think up a new way to take the the attribution gadget out of my blog, they put in some code to put back in again the next time I edit the template.

However, as at right now:

How to remove the attribution by hiding it:

One way of removing "powered by Blogger" from your blog is to hide it.   To do so, simply add this rule to your template:

#Attribution1 {display: none;}

(See Adding a new formatting rule to your blog for more information about doing this.)


Note:  Hiding elements on your blog can have downsides, if the search-engines think that you are trying to deceive them.   Use this technique at your own risk.

Mobile template blogs:

The approach above only works on your non-mobile template.   If you have enabled a custom mobile template, you can either use the standard way of removing your attribution from your mobile blog, or by adding a 2nd rule:

.mobile #Attribution1 {display: none;}
