 * – Unfortunately, your currently used theme is not in the wordpress.org/themes/
   directory:
    [https://wordpress.org/themes/search/socialchef/](https://wordpress.org/themes/search/socialchef/)
 * – These forums are for free themes available in the WordPress theme directory
   at wordpress.org/themes/. So please contact the developer/vendor directly for
   support with your question. You’ll be more likely to find a good answer from 
   them, for they have the access to its code. Forum volunteers are not given access
   to commercial/custom products, so they would not know why your /custom/commercial
   theme or plugin is not working properly. The developers/vendors are responsible
   for supporting their custom/commercial product. See [http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Commercial_Products](http://codex.wordpress.org/Forum_Welcome#Commercial_Products)

    – haha! thanks for mention
   that i am not using a free theme!!!! :-\ the theme info i gave, was just for 
   extra information! – unfortunately, this forum is for wordpress how to and etc!!
   not for Theme!! and if you look more carefully there is another tab available
   for free themes (which i didnt asked my question there)!! :-\ – and by the way,**
   insert/edit link button** is a wordpress default property! – and for the last
   thing to mention, pleaseeee next time you go to a topic to say something, first
   of all READ THE QUESTION! i didnt said that something is not working!!! i asked
   how to hide! 😐

 * To save you time, your best bet is to ask your theme’s author as to how to “hide”.
