Often bloggers encounter problems, where they download templates from a third party site and then try and edit it as per their wishes. But many a times they find a problem, that the widgets from the third party templates cannot be removed, using the conventional techniques.

So what's the solution, simple, HTML trumps CSS.

i.e. usually when you want to change a particular widget, you go to

your Dashboard --> Layout
then click on edit button corresponding to the widget to be changed.

Now try the above process for any other widget.

  

 Then go to Layout and remove the widget, manually.
