I have seen many posts about removing the Tumblr “Follow Me” button link. Many are out of date, too extreme or simple doesn’t work.

Option 1

I know tumblr does give you the option located in  “Advanced Options ” to toggle between “Promote Tumblr” (For the Follow me button”

-This work for some theme not all, In my case it didnt

Option 2

You can manually edit the HTML code and use the extreme method

Step 1

Log in to your Tumblr account, and click the name of the blog you want to edit.

Step 2

Click “Customize Appearance” from the right menu.

Step 3

Click the “Edit HTML” button in the left menu under your theme name. Tumblr will open a new frame that displays the HTML coding for your blog’s theme.

Step 4

Find the tag “{CustomCSS}”,  you can press the "Ctrl" & "F" key or “Command” & “F” simultaneously to open your browser's search feature and search “{CustomCSS}” then Paste: 

iframe {display:none !important;}

The reason why I consider this an extreme method is because it blocks all iframe node! So if you use a custom Disqus add on for commenting, it’ll be blocked from displaying also.

Option 3 (best method)

Be more specific with what you don’t want displaying

Follow Step 1-3 on Option 2 to get you to the HTML edit page and locate the tag “{CustomCSS}” and right under it, paste:

/*To remove that tumblr edit helper box*/ .iframe-controls-container.desktop-iframe-controls-container {    display: none !important; }  

/*To remove that tumblr follow me*/ .tmblr-iframe--controls.iframe-controls--desktop, .tmblr-iframe--mobile-loggedin-controls.iframe-controls--desktop {   display: none; }
