After looking through every post here on Facebook comment integration, I still have not found a solution to my problem. I'm trying to use a FB comment plugin and have successfully integrated it (along with making it fluid), but have run out of options on how to completely do away with WP comment content below the FB comment section.

I found this CSS fix:

.comment_meta_container,
.comment_container { display: none; }

which took care of most of the problem, but I'm still seeing a "comment" horizontal divider with a bunch of empty white space above and below. Here's the link to the page: http://bertuzziphotography.com/urban-wedding-photos/

Is there a quick CSS fix to remove the comment divider? And is there a way to remove the WP comment counter at the top of the post? Or possibly even replace it with a count of FB comments?

*Another thing to note is that this Facebook plugin (SEO Facebook) is only visible when comments are turned on in WP.

Hi bertuzziphotos,

Try adding the following CSS to your Quick CSS (located under the Styling Tab in the theme options) or the custom.css file in the css folder of your theme files:
```
.comment-entry.post-entry {
display: none;
}
```
Then open up includes>comments.php and search for the following:
```
<?php
	// You can start editing here -- including this comment!

	//create seperator
	if(comments_open() || get_comments_number()) echo avia_advanced_hr(__('Comments', 'avia_framework'));
?>
```
Remove that block to remove the comment HR separator.

Regards,

Devin

Seems to have done the trick! Is there a way to remove the WP comment counter at the top of the post? Or possibly even replace it with a count of FB comments?

Open up angular\includes\format-standard.php and remove following code to get rid of the comment count:

<?php
						if(comments_open() || get_comments_number())
						{
							echo "<span class='comment-container minor-meta'>";
							comments_popup_link(" <span>0 ".__('Comments','avia_framework')."</span>",
												" <span>1 ".__('Comment' ,'avia_framework')."</span>",
												" <span>% ".__('Comments','avia_framework')."</span>",'comments-link',
												__('Comments Off'  ,'avia_framework'));
							echo "</span><span class='text-sep'>/</span>";
						}

						?>
