It's always the last place you look - controlling block assignment to content types in Views

Yet another loooong search to find a solution.  Not too bad, this time.  But it did take some insight.

I'm using the Backlinks view to provide a tracking element to see which stories link to other nodes (stories, blog posts, etc...) in order to see the chain of influence.  

The problem I was experiencing was the What Links Here tab was appearing on the site's basic pages such as the home page.  I don't want this to appear on basic pages, so I had to dig around a bit to find the solution.

As is normal, I clicked through the content type options and the selections there didn't change its appearance.  So I dug through what I thought was every link on the View itself.  No dice, so I sent to Google and finally the Drupal forums.  Once again, just as I was about to post the questions, I did a search on the forums and found the answer.

The solutions was here - https://drupal.org/node/319139

Be clicking on the Search: Links to link and scrolling down, the optioss for content type are near the bottom.  However, it wasn't that easy.  In Views, there are multiple displays.  I assumed I needed to work on the "What links here" display and made the changes there.  Even after clearing the site cache, it wasn't working.  

Turns out I needed to refocus on the Page view.  Once I selected the appropriate conten types, the tab dissapeared on the front page allowing a cleaner interface.
