How to hide Views column or remove Views functionality alltogether?

Hello!

When using Newspaper theme I have noticed that on Posts page in wordpress admin as well as in any other custom post type overview page in admin panel there is always a new column Views added.

I can hide it for myself using standard wordpress admin screen management panel but I need to make sure that it is hidden for all publishers and content managers that log into the WP backend.

In theme settings i did not find any toggle that would remove Views functionality. Is it possible? Is there a programatic way to at least disable those columns to be populated in standard wordpress backend pages? If it’s commenting a few lines in PHP I could manage it with a child theme if you point me where I can disable it. I am not using views anywhere on the site and also I do not use it to show items in grids based on views.

Thank you for any hints and guidance!

Hello,

You need to use this plugin to add this CSS -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-css-mu/
.column-td_post_views {
display: none;
}

Thank you!
