A default MT4 blog comes with a list of Monthly Archives in the sidebar. For many blog purposes (LMT an example) you don't really need to show archives by month. A category listing will suffice.
Here are the steps to get rid of the monthly archives and to remove them from your sidebar.
1. From your main blog edit window, click on "Design" in the top horizontal navigation bar. Then click on "Templates". Scroll down to "Archive Templates" and click on "Monthly Entry Listing".
2. Scroll down and click on "Template Options". Where it says "Archive Mapping", see "Monthly" under Type, click on the little trash can icon to the right of it to delete this archive mapping. Click "Save & Publish".
3. Then repeat this on the other archive templates such as Category Listing and Entry.
Rebuild your site.
