Disqus Tumblr Themes – Remove ‘Comments’ Word from ‘x Comments’

disqustumblrtumblr-themes

From How do you remove Disqus "comments" from Tumblr pages? and Disqus: Setup instructions for Tumblr, I found that you can show Disqus comments with

<a class="dsq-comment-count" href="{Permalink}#disqus_thread">Comments</a>

which seems to generate "x Comments" where x is the number of comments. Is there a way to get rid of the "Comments" bit, and just have the number?

It's managed in Disqus settings, not on Tumblr.

Log into your Disqus account
Go to the account that needs the change (the first page when logged in is the dashboard)
Click on Settings (the right-most tab)
Click on Appearance
Scroll down to the Comment Count Link group of settings (almost at the end of the page)
There you'll see three editable text fields labeled Zero Comments, One Comment, and Multiple Comments. Change the text in them to whatever you want.
Click the big blue button Save Changes at the bottom of the page

From what I see you have "code" there; You can add a Syntax Highlighter script or something.

See here for a possible solution (it's in french, but you can use Google Translate)

Any way to hide Disqus box from Tumblr ask page only

Found a way of doing it! Wrap it in PermalinkPagination blocks:

{block:PermalinkPagination}
   ...disqus code...
{/block:PermalinkPagination}

PermalinkPagination only shows on posts (actually, it only shows on posts if they have a previous and/or a next post, so it won't work on blogs with only one post) and not static pages. You can use it within the context of a PermalinkPage block to include content that should only show on post pages rather than static pages.

You can use PermalinkPagination numerous times in the template.

To see it in action, have a look at a static page vs. a blog post on my Tumblr blog.
