 * Hey, I’ve got this error on only one of the posts. Don’t know how to remove it,
   please help.
 * I think this may have something to do with me testing some caching plugins before–
   none are active and the httaccess doesn’t have the expiration headers.
 * Here’s the error:

 * When logged in as admin I get a bit more info:
 *     ```

 * ok so I found the error – it was an og:tag plugin problem.
 * Now… can anyone tell me how to remove this post from here, as it’s absolete?
