 * Since the 3.2.1 update I am getting the “**subscribe_comments**” and “**subscribe_blog**”
   checkboxes beneath the comment submit button, no labels just the checkboxes.
 * How do I get rid of them please? They are ugly.

 * in style.css at the end add.
 *     ```
       #subscribe_comments, #subscribe_blog {
          display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * You do have grey labels for the check boxes which are set to display: none; so
   you can reactivate these if you want the check boxes and labels.

 * Hmmmm, that didn’t work, it hid the checkboxes in the mobile theme but not the
   labels.
 * This did the trick…
 *     ```
       .comment-subscription-form
       {
       display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Thanks for the inspiration David.

 * Thanks, I was looking for this as well, I thought it was part of Jetpack but 
   couldn’t work out how to solve it as I had my own subscribe to comments plugin,
   so the extra option looked messy.

 * Easy solution to the Jetpack Subscription comment labels overlapping the checkboxes.
 * The subscription label id for both comments and new posts are “subscribe-label”…
   
   I just added 15pt margin to the left hand of the text via **Appearance > CSS 
   Editor** in my dashboard. This way I won’t have to continue inserting  s everytime
   Jetpack is updated.
 * EXAMPLE CODE in CSS Editor:
 *     ```
       //Post Comment subscription labels are now bright blue and do not overlap checkbox
       .subscribe-label {
       	color:#5CD6FF;
       	margin-left:15px;
       }
       ```

   for example of my results.
