 * Hello, I am using the Canard theme, is there a way to remove huge previous/next
   buttons at bottom of posts?

 * Hi,
 * Can you please explain how you removed the previous & next from posts?
 * Alternatively, can you explain how to exclude specific posts categories so they
   don’t show up in the previous & next buttons?
 * I’m not a coder so please also add instructions to where exactly should i add
   the code…
 * Thanks!

 * You can remove post navigation on single posts with this custom CSS:
 *     ```
       .single .nav-links {
         display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten
   every time the theme is updated to the latest version.
 * An easy way to add custom CSS is to install the [Jetpack plugin](http://jetpack.me/)
   and activate the [Custom CSS](http://jetpack.me/support/custom-css/) module. 
   You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in
   your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.
 * As alternatives, you could either install a [standalone custom CSS plugin,](http://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css)
   or create a [child theme.](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)

 * This is much more complicated so for a non-coder I’d recommend simply removing
   the post navigation. 🙂
