Yes. You just have to set it as NO. And I can see exact comments count on the link you provided. What is the issue actually then? * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475425) * the comment count doesn’t show up in the Disqus thread beside Community, there should be “X” Comments but it does not appear * Plugin Author [Joel James](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelcj91/) * (@joelcj91) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475426) * Please look on to [this screenshot](http://s18.postimg.org/n1mfux1vt/Capture.png) * Is that what you mean? * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475427) * nope – that’s not what I’m referring to. that works perfectly. * I’m referring to the actual Disqus comment box at the bottom * for example, take a look at [this site](http://www.nichegamer.net/2014/11/cyberconnect2-is-teasing-something-awesome-in-development-reveal-coming-soon/#disqus_thread) * It says 7 Comments.. but on my site, it just says Comments * Plugin Author [Joel James](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelcj91/) * (@joelcj91) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475429) * Ok. Now I understood. Are you sure that it is working when you use official Disqus plugin? * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475431) * I can’t actually remember. I have sent in a support ticket with Disqus as well, still pending their reply. * Any idea how to fix? I disabled my minification and all that – the problem still exists * — On a sidenote, so “Disable Default Disqus Count Script Loading” only affects the screenshot you showed me? * Plugin Author [Joel James](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelcj91/) * (@joelcj91) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475432) * Yes. It is to prevent loading that count script. * Did you try “Output JavaScript in Footer” option – enable/disable? * This is first time I see this issue. Let me look on to it. Will update you. * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475433) * Thanks (: * Yes, I have enabled that as well “Output JavaScript in Footer” option I’m using the TwentyFourteen WP theme * Plugin Author [Joel James](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelcj91/) * (@joelcj91) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475437) * Hi, * Just check with normal Disqus plugin too. * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475439) * any luck with it? or is it a bug with Disqus itself * Plugin Author [Joel James](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelcj91/) * (@joelcj91) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475441) * Just check with official one also. No issue for others. Just for confirmation. * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475443) * ah I see. hmm might it be due to the WP Twentyfourteen theme? I had to adjust the css else the formatting would be off. * Plugin Author [Joel James](https://wordpress.org/support/users/joelcj91/) * (@joelcj91) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475454) * So what is the status? * Thread Starter [wilflare](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wilflare/) * (@wilflare) * [11 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-default-disqus-count-script-loading/#post-5475456) * oh my bad. I tried it with the original disqus plugin – it doesn’t show up either.
