# Remove “0 Comments”

 * I figured out how to remove “Comments are closed” from the bottom of posts, but
   how do I remove “0 Comments” from those posts that do not allow comments? Seems
   rather useless to even have the notification if posting comments for that article
   is not even allowed.

 * look for comments_number() and then modify that to display what you want to display.
 * If comments are not allowed on a post, search for something like this in comments.
   php
 * `<?php if ('open' == $post->comment_status) : ?>`
 * Then edit below that.
