Hi there,

I'm using a heavily customised version of the Graphene theme for my website and it's working great. One minor problem I haven't been able to resolve yet:

How do I disable specific RSS feeds? In Firefox, if I go to my homepage and right-click and "View Page Info" > "Feeds", I see 3 feeds:

>> Feed
>> Comments Feed
>> Home Feed

If I look at the HTML, I see in the head section something like:
```
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Title Feed" href="http://www.website.com/feed/" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Title Comments Feed" href="http://www.website.com/comments/feed/" />
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Title Homepage Comments Feed" href="http://www.website.com/home/feed/" />
```
I only want the first RSS feed. The second two I want to turn off.

Thanks!

Hide RSS links in WordPress SEO Settings --> Titles and Metas. Then add the feed link manually to head
```
function my_feed_link_in_head() {
?>
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="Juicy Body Art » Feed" href="http://www.juicybodyart.com/feed/" />
<?php
}
add_action('wp_head', 'my_feed_link_in_head');
```
Put code in between backtick (`) characters. It's usually located above the Tab key on your keyboard. I've edited your post.

Aha, genius! Thanks very much for the quick reply, really appreciate it.

I ended up choosing "Hide RSS links" as you suggested, then simply adding the RSS link under Graphene Options > Advanced > Custom <head> Tags.

Another suggestion, use the below CSS to change dropdown arrow colour from black to white on hover and current menu item state.
```
#header-menu > li.menu-item-ancestor:hover > a,
#header-menu > li.current-menu-item > a,
#header-menu > li.current-menu-ancestor > a {
    background-position: -877px -236px;
}
```
This,

looks better than this,
