Hi loiruca. Try this css in a child theme style.css file or a plugin like Custom CSS:
.widget_recent_entries > ul > li > a:before,
.widget_recent_comments > ul > li:before,
.widget_archive > ul > li > a:before,
.widget_categories > ul > li > a:before,
.widget_meta > ul > li > a:before {
content: "";
}
Thanks it works, but now I am left with a space before the posts link in place where the icon was.
True; you didn’t ask to move the links left in your original request. Change the CSS I posted above to add the width and margin properties; that should take care of it:
.widget_recent_entries > ul > li > a:before,
.widget_recent_comments > ul > li:before,
.widget_archive > ul > li > a:before,
.widget_categories > ul > li > a:before,
.widget_meta > ul > li > a:before {
content: "";
width: 0;
margin-left: -.5em
}
