How to remove author comment counts

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 6

How do I remove the automatic display of how many comments an individual author has received.
For example on the Home/authors/posts by “.” rendering where the theme displays two boxes showing #number of posts; and #number of comments.
I just want to get rid of the author comment number box where it displays in various places.
Many thanks.

Hello Brian,

There is an option for it in Theme panel, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/HaeJsKFMfp

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the message!

Hi,
Turning off the comments count in “Block Settings” only turns it off on the individual post modules.
The author comment count box is still in the heading here as you can see (and other places)

Hi,

The mentioned setting will deactivate the comment count on individual post pages. For blocks/modules there is another setting here

However for the comment count displayed in the author box there is no disable option. It could be removed with a code like this if required

Enter the code in Theme panel->Custom CSS code section

.author-box-wrap .td-author-comments-count {
display:none;
}

Thanks

Hi,
Thanks, I have used the custom code to successfully remove the comment count in the author box modules (much appreciated).

Now is there a way to remove the comment count on the [tagDiv] Authors box widget? I have one on my homepage and the comment count is still shown.

Many thanks.
