post view count

Ok I’m stuck. The view counter on the top right of an article, is there any way to hide that. I still want to be able to tell how many views something has to cross reference against my analytics but I don’t really want to have everyone come and see if we have a low view count on something.

Best I managed was finding the option to turn off the view count which leaves it visible and just doesnt keep count anymore 🙁

Hello evilspyboy,

You can try using a bit of CSS code to hide it from your front end but the functionality of it will continue to work. Try the code below and place it in Theme panel -> Custom CSS area.

The code is ->

.td-post-views{
display:none;
}

Thanks.

Hi, has this changed in 8.7 (or somewhere between 7.7 and 8.7) as I have the custom code still in but the counter is showing up again.

Edit: never mind, it’s a comment count showing up now. Im assuming similar code will hide it.

Hi,

Yes, a similar code could hide it but you can also hide it from the theme panel: https://www.screencast.com/t/0MQZjLdTFY

Hi, It seems that it is something wrong with the comments counting. It is counting comments on the front page and the categories pages….
I have disabled it under post settings.

Hello,

There is nothing wrong with the comments. If you want to disable them from pages and categories as well, you will find the setting here: https://www.screencast.com/t/qlcwA33ad9
