Remove text below comments box

By Lauren Short, 9 years ago. Last reply by Lauren Short, 9 years ago.

Hi there,

I’ve tried following the advice in the following post to remove the text below the comments box “You may use these HTML tags and attributes:…”

Spurious text below comments box. How do I remove it

However, while this has removed all of the example HTML tags, it’s still left this bit of the text: “You may use these HTML tags and attributes:”

Is there anything I might be missing?

Thanks,
Lauren

    Hello Lauren,

    Go to Appearance => editor and open comments.php. Towards the bottom you change the following:

    ”));
    ?>

    Where “// comment_form();” is what you will find initially, and where “comment_form(array(‘comment_notes_after’=>”))” is what you will type in.

    Save and done… it worked for me. Let me know if the worked for you.

    Hi Lauren

    Try the following under Appearance > Custom CSS:

    /* Vantage hide allowed comment form tags */

#commentform .form-allowed-tags, #commentform .form-allowed-tags code, #commentform .comment-notes {
display: none;
}

    That seems to work correctly on my side. Are you using regular comments or Jetpack comments? Try the CSS snippet at the top of your Custom CSS to ensure nothing is getting in the way.

    Thanks for the feedback there Hans. Just remember to do that all in a child theme or the change will be lost during the next theme update:

    Hi Andrew,

    Thanks this code works fine.

    I have a question though. When I put it at the top it messes up the other CSS I have in the “Custom CSS” box. Is there a more efficient way to change CSS? I am just afraid if I add more changes to other parts of the site it will affect whats already in the box?

    Thanks

    Lauren
