 * [@melody62](https://wordpress.org/support/users/melody62/)): Hello there,
    The
   comment count is already there. It just seems to invisible due to its white text
   color. On your site [https://melodyk.nl/met-dank-aan-2/](https://melodyk.nl/met-dank-aan-2/)
 * **Go to => Appearance => Customize => Additional CSS** and add the following 
   CSS Code.
 *     ```
       .comments-title {
           color: #a48d68;
       }
       ```
   
 * Now you should see the text **11 thoughts on “Met dank aan…” ** on that page.
 * Let me know if this helps you out!
 * Also for swift replies please post your issues and queries on our Official Theme
   Support Forum [https://catchthemes.com/support-forum/](https://catchthemes.com/support-forum/)

 * Hi Skandha
 * Thank you for the quick response.
 * My apologies for not being clear enough, I did not mean what you thought…
 * I meant the comment-count on the homepage… alongside the date & authorname
 * Would like to see the commentcount(total of comments) there …
 * Hope that that is possible

 * It makes me sad to have to notice again that, Like on many other themes, support
   to those who use a theme for free instead of pro… seems to be impossible !

 * [@melody62](https://wordpress.org/support/users/melody62/): Hello there,
    Sorry
   for the late reply. To have the comments count like you wish to you will need
   to create a child theme and do bit of customization. Let me know if you are familiar
   with child theme customization otherwise I suggest you to get it done by a professional.

 * Hi Jan… I’ve already expected that… I know that ‘dupes’ are not allowed but I
   wanted to make clear that I feel the lack of support on many themes wich can 
   be used free.
 * The ‘dupe’ I placed wass only to avoid waiste of time by questions about the 
   question and my url …

 * Hi Skandha
 * Apologies accepted.
 * I know a little about it, wich has most of the times, proven to be enough.
 * To hire a professional is not an option, am not able to pay for it, nor willing
   to either.
 * Please tell me what I deed to change / where
 * Thank you.

 * [@melody62](https://wordpress.org/support/users/melody62/): Hello there,
    Only
   you or the moderators can mark this thread resolved. The moderator may have done
   it.
 * So first you will need to create a child theme. You can use [Generate Child Theme Plugin](https://catchplugins.com/plugins/generate-child-theme/)
   to create a child theme. Install and Activate the Plugin.
 * **Go to => Dashboard => Generate Child Theme =>Select Parent Theme** as **Bold
   Photography** Fill the remaining fields and Click **Generate**.
    This will install
   and activate the child theme.
 * Now,
    **Go to => Child Theme Folder =>** Create new folders **template-parts/
   content**. Inside **content** folder create a new file **content.php** and paste
   the code in this [link](https://pastebin.com/qeHbDVM1).
 * Now you should be able to see the comments count beside the author name.
 * Let me know if this works out!
    Kind Regards, Skandha

   and I presume I did it right 🙂 ) but it does not work I’m afraid
 * Could you please help me again?
 * Thank you
