 * The Next Post and Previous Post links make no sense in the context of my website,
   and none of the plugins/strategies to remove them that seem to work for other
   themes work for twenty twenty. How can I remove these links from my posts?
 * Thanks for any help.

 * Add this via Additional CSS:
 *     ```
       .navigation.pagination {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * Thanks for the reply, but this didn’t work.
 * Here’s what I did:
    Appearances –> Customize –> Additional CSS –> pasted your
   code into the textbox –> Clicked “Publish” –> Reloaded page (even tried in a 
   different browser) –> No Change whatsoever…
 * In case it matters, I haven’t launched my site yet, so I’m looking at my site
   via “Visit Site” option at the top of the dashboard.
 * Have I missed a step?
 * I remember reading somewhere that Twenty-Twenty isn’t set up like most WordPress
   themes are, so the standard solutions to standard problems often don’t work. 
   This seems to be one of those cases.
 * Again, thanks for any help.

 * It will definitely work.
 * Are you using any sort of caching plugin, or do you see a “Clear/Purge Cache”
   button in your Dashboard or admin bar? If so, would you please try clearing the
   cache?
 * Note: You do not need to install a caching plugin at this point just to clear
   a cache you don’t have. If you don’t have a caching plugin or a way to clear 
   a server-level cache, just say so. 🙂

 * After poking around a bit, Bluehost (which I use) has a caching feature (not 
   sure if it’s technically a plugin, since it doesn’t appear on my plugins list)
   called Endurance Cache. The level was (and still is) set to “Off (Level 0)”. 
   Also, yes, there was a “Caching” button at the top of my dashboard. I clicked“
   Purge All”, but to no avail. Just to be sure it wasn’t just my computer, I briefly
   turned off the “Coming Soon” and checked on my daughter’s computer (which had
   never loaded that site previously) without logging in to WordPress, but the links
   were still there.
 * Having taken these steps, what do I do now?
 * Again, Thanks!

 * Honestly, I’m not sure. I’ve tested that snippet on all of my Twenty Twenty sites,
   and it works perfectly.

 * Again, that snippet is:
 *     ```
       .navigation.pagination {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * I’m using a child theme, with the plugin Child Theme Configurator. I’ve tried
   activating Twenty-Twenty (non-child) theme. Nothing. I’ve tried turning off plugins
   one-by-one. Nothing.
 * Can you point me to where in the CSS these commands appear? Would it work if 
   I “commented” them out? I remember reading about that approach at some point,
   and since nothing else has worked…

 * You must have some sort of caching somewhere, if it won’t even work under a non-
   child Twenty Twenty theme, or you have a plugin interfering somehow.
 * I simply cannot explain why else it won’t work for you, it makes absolutely no
   sense.

 * Ok, whoops, hang on. My fault. If you look at the screenshots from my last reply,
   I’m removing the wrong thing, must have gotten confused along the way.
 * Here’s what you need to add via Additional CSS:
 *     ```
       .pagination-single-inner {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * I think that looks a lot more like what you want. 😉

 * That did the trick! Again, thank you for your time and expertise; they are both
   very much appreciated.
 * This was one of those little “I can live with it if I have to” things, but as
   time went by, it was bugging me more and more, so I’m really glad to have finally
   found a solution.
 * Thank the maker for volunteers like you!
 * Have a great day,
    Jeff

 * This has been very helpful but is there a way to remove those two lines at the
   bottom that remain?
 * Thank you!

 * To remove the pagination _and_ the lines, use:
 *     ```
       .pagination-single.section-inner.only-one.only-prev {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * Hi, I’m very happy to find this solution as I have the same need. Thank you James!
   
   Although, the 2 lines still remain, even with the last code. I tried that code
   alone and it didn’t do anything. Next I tried both and the next/previous post
   doesn’t show but the 2 lines are still there. Any help, please?

 * What is the URL of the page you’re still seeing them on?

 * Did you ever solve this [@macmanx](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/)?
   I’m in the same position as [@martinspaulo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/martinspaulo/)
   as the two lines still appear.

 * No, because I still haven’t received a reply to the above question, “What is 
   the URL of the page you’re still seeing them on?” 😉
