Looking to hide the comments in author box

I am using an author box to bring the authors with the number of posts and link to it in a single page. Along with the author box the comment box is also seen. I want to hide the ‘Comments’ element in the author box as shown in the screenshot int he below link,

I want to do the same thing. Not using the wordpress comment system so this obviously has to go. Any solutions?

I fixed it by adding the following custom CSS to the theme:

.td-author-comments-count, .tdb-author-comments-count {
visibility: hidden;
}

I hope that is safe long-term!

Thanks Jesper. The css works. Hope it does not impact other areas in the theme.

It will affect other areas of course but that was my intention. There are comment counter many different areas of the theme, but for me I think it’s best if they are all gone.

I also want to hide the number of comments indicator. It would be desirable that it could be configured at the block level. From what I’ve seen at code level it’s not possible “td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/includes/shortcodes/td_block_authors.php”.

I ask for this feature to add to this other one https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/authors-boxwidgets-how-to-limit-the-authors-list/#post-398911. In terms of performance it could also be beneficial.
