Hi All,
Just took a look at this, and tested @donmhico's solution and can confirm
that this works. Additionally to this I have written an extra filter to
remove the comments button from the header entirely too as the
aforementioned filter stops the comment counter from working.
To do this I have added the following filter:
{{{#!php
<?php
function remove_comments_count_from_wp_admin_bar()
{
global $wp_admin_bar;
$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('comments');
}
add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render',
'remove_comments_count_from_wp_admin_bar');
}}}
You will still need @donmhico's filter included to stop the SQL still, but
this additional filter is just a bit of polish if you didn't want the
button to show in the admin bar.
Also, seeing as this ticket hasn't had any activity in the last 4 years, I
am going to mark this ticket as closed. But for future reference as this
doesn't specifically mention an issue or something within core WordPress,
I would recommend submitting any site specific issues at the
[https://wordpress.org/support/welcome/" WordPress Support Forum], as you
are more likely to get a quicker reply there for non core related issue.
Hope this helps 😃
