Yeah no worries you got it right. You post a fave website in the blog you decided is the linkblog and it shows up in the sidebar. But those pesky little image links show up too, and sometimes they show up on the next line. We can fix that but why bother when you want it to go away?

Cool. Open skins/yourskin/_linkblog.php or maybe skins/_linkblog.php and look for this bit:

	while( $Item = $LinkblogList->get_item() )
	{
		echo $linkblog_item_before;
		$Item->title( '', '', true );
		echo ' ';
		$Item->content( 1, 0, T_('more'), '[', ']' );	// Description + more link
		echo ' ';
		$Item->permanent_link( '#icon#', '#', '' );
		echo $linkblog_item_after;
	}

Now change it to this:

	while( $Item = $LinkblogList->get_item() )
	{
		echo $linkblog_item_before;
		$Item->title( '', '', true );
		echo $linkblog_item_after;
	}

Upload the new file and be amazed at how it's not there anymore.

Oh and to get rid of how the icon shows up on the next line simply edit a post and uncheck "auto-P" plugin.

Thanks!
Didn't work all the way first, but found out your code mist a tiny bit.
I changed the code to:

while( $Item = $LinkblogList->get_item() )
{
echo $linkblog_item_before;
$Item->title( '', '', true );
echo ' ';
$Item->content( 1, 0, T_('more'), '[', ']' ); // Description + more link
echo $linkblog_item_after;
}

And it works like a charme! ;D
Many thanks!

This code does not appear in my file _linkblog.php, blue_heaven skin, 1.10.3 version of b2evo. Where might it be, so that I could remove the permalink icon?

It should be in one of those files.

Thanks, found it.
