   I don't need the title_reply field as I've already styled a h4 title outside of the form.

   I've tried to remove the field inside my args array, but to no avail. Here's the code.

   <?php $comment_args = array( 'fields' => apply_filters( 'comment_form_default_fields', array(
   	'title_reply' => '',
           'email' => more code...,
           'author'=> more code...,
           'url'    => '' ) ),
   
            more code...
   );
   ?>
   <?php comment_form($comment_args); ?>

   The code for email, author and url all work fine, but when I added title_reply to the array, nothing happened. Is there something obvious I am doing wrong here?

   Hey, I figured out what I was doing wrong. Two things.

   First, the title_reply field needs parentheses around the single quote marks.

   'title_reply' => ( '' ),
   instead of
   'title_reply' => '',

   Second, I placed title_reply in the wrong array. My code has two arrays, one nested within the other. The inner array with the comment_form_default_fields hook seems to be specific to the email, author and url fields. Whereas my first array, with no hook, seems to effect the rest of the comment_form defaults without a hiccup.

   Here's the working code.

   <?php $comment_args = array( 'fields' => apply_filters( 'comment_form_default_fields', array(
   
   	'email'  =>  more code...,
   	'author' => more code...,
           'url'    => '' ) ), <!-- close apply_filters and second array -->
   
       'comment_field' => more code...,
       'comment_notes_after' => '',
       'title_reply' => ( '' ),
   
   );
   ?>
   <?php comment_form($comment_args); ?>

   Please correct me if my explanation is wrong. Here's a few tutorials and resources I found helpful.
