# Remove (Hide) Comments Count

 * Tried to hide cooments count with recommended CSS:
    .postcommentscount {display:
   none;} but no success. I had to remove line <h3><?php printf(_n(‘One Response‘,‘%
   1$s Responses ‘, get_comments_number(), ‘virtue’), number_format_i18n(get_comments_number()),
   get_the_title()); ?></h3> from comments.php template to solve this. It will work
   until next update I guess. How to hide it via CSS?

 * Hey there dreamstone,
 * Hope you’re well today 🙂
 * If this is what you’re trying to remove [http://screencast.com/t/3GYmAgYBw8c1](http://screencast.com/t/3GYmAgYBw8c1)
   then you’re using the correct selector. Please try adding the following CSS code
   to Appearance -> Customize -> Advanced Settings -> Custom CSS:
 *     ```
       #comments h3 {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * This should remove the comment count. If the code doesn’t work please keep it
   added and post link to your site so I can take a look 🙂
 * Cheers,
    Bojan
