Remove count on topics

[aaronsnet]

Did a search, no luck.

Does anyone know how to remove the count that is displayed on each post that shows the number of views? Our forum is a bit small, and would like to get rid of that.

You'll be needing to edit the files directly.

Open display.template.php

Find:

Code Select Expand

', $txt['topic'], ': ', $context['subject'], '  (', $txt['read'], ' ', $context['num_views'], ' ', $txt['times'], ')

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

', $txt['topic'], ': ', $context['subject'], '

Go into your Admin -> Features and Options -> Core Features -> Advanced Profile Fields. If it's not enabled, enable it first. Then find Posts and uncheck Active, then hit Save. That should do it.

That will not do it. That will not remove the view count as the OP has requested.

The instructions above was for the default theme on SMF 2.0.

This was posted in the 2.0 support board-- so why do you want instructions for SMF 1.1.x?

Oooopps. I will repost in the appropriate forum. I am sure that this will help someone in the future with 2.x though! Thanks for the help, as I will need to know this when I upgrade.

No need to post another topic, I guess...

The instructions for 1.1.x aren't that much different.

Open display.template.php

Find:

Code Select Expand

<td valign="middle" width="85%" style="padding-left: 6px;" id="top_subject">
', $context['subject'], ' &nbsp;(', $txt[641], ' ', $context['num_views'], ' ', $txt[642], ')
</td>

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

<td valign="middle" width="85%" style="padding-left: 6px;" id="top_subject">
', $context['subject'], ' &nbsp;
</td>

Thanks. What about remove the "views" in the board view?

Please post in the 1.x support forums. I think that's far enough
