4. Click Proceed

5. Click Expand Widget Templates

6. Search for and remove this entire section:

<b:if cond='data:navMessage'>

    <div class='status-msg-body'>
      <data:navMessage/>
    </div>
    <div class='status-msg-border'>
      <div class='status-msg-bg'>
        <div class='status-msg-hidden'><data:navMessage/></div>
