    Can you post a link to your site? It's always easier to help when we can see the theme you're using, what's going on in your stylesheet, etc.

    If you install the Genesis Simple Edits plugin, you can choose what appears in the post meta (before post) and post info (after post). Hope that helps!

    am using Genesis Simple Edits plugin and I have the followings :

    Post Info : [post_date] By [post_author_posts_link] [post_comments] [post_edit]

    Post Meta : [post_categories] [post_tags]

    And when I removed : [post_comments]

    The comment link is still showing on the site.

    What else do I need to do?

    Try pasting this into functions.php:

    add_filter( 'genesis_post_info', 'sp_post_info_filter' );
    function sp_post_info_filter($post_info) {
    if ( !is_page() ) {
    	$post_info = '[post_date] by [post_author_posts_link] [post_edit]';
    	return $post_info;
    }}

    I pasted the code you gave but, there was no change. But, I actually have the code below in the Genesis Simple Hooks. Could you please tell me what I need to edit to be able to remove the "Leave a comment" on my site?

    <div class="post-info">
    <span class="time"><?php the_time('F j, Y'); ?></span> <span class="author">by <?php the_author_posts_link(); ?></span> <span class="post-comments">#respond"><?php comments_number('Leave a Comment', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?></span> <?php edit_post_link('(Edit)', '', ''); ?>
    </div>

    Question:
    What should I edit in the code above to remove the "Leave a comment" on my site?

    Hello Gordy,

    Try removing this (be careful to be precise though ;-)):

    <?php comments_number(‘Leave a Comment’, ’1 Comment’, ‘% Comments’); ?>

    Is that what you are looking for?

    Thanks, Chris Moore. It worked. And I hope that, it will not conflict with any other function on the website, other than to remove the "Leave a Comment" before post content. ?

    Awesome. Glad to hear!

    In general, no, I don't think it should be a problem. But always double and triple check (and on mobile devices as well)!
