 * I have Comments turned off on the site, in addition to a plugin that disables
   comments as well. However, whenever I use the “Posts” shortcode, it still list“
   0 Comments” below the post excerpt. Is there a way to remove this?

 * I had the same problem and solved it by adding the following to the styles.css
   file in my child theme:
    `.su-post-comments-link { display: none; }`

 * Just removed that and added the same code in the Shortcodes Custom CSS and it
   also worked.
