Hello,

I have a trending section on my homepage: https://gadgetgang.com/
This is sorted by popularity over 7 days, in order for this to work I need to have the “SHOW POST VIEWS” enabled in the theme panel.

I don’t like people seeing how many views the post has, is there any way to disable this option and still have my trending section?

Thanks,
Regards,
Dan

Add this custom scc in Newspaper>Theme panel>Custom code>custom css

Hope this will help you to achieve what you need.
Thanks.

Thanks for the help,

I added the code, however, it didn’t work until I added the !important tag at the end.

Thanks,
Regards,
Dan

Hello Calin,
The post count still appears to be showing on AMPed pages. Do you have any code to stop displaying it on them pages also?

Thanks,
Regards,
Dan.
