I need to remove the "comments.gif" and the Comment Number from the Front Page. Every time I remove them from the Index Page the Blog is underlined and the Blog Font becomes smaller. ??? The Front Page will always be closed to comments.

Open your main index file ("index.php") for editing in the theme editor.

Locate the following code:

      <?php the_title(); ?></a>  <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/imgs/comments.gif" alt="Comments" /> <span class="comments">(
      <?php comments_number('0','1','%'); ?>
      )</span></h2>

You'll want to remove between the "</a>" and the "</h2>" tags.

Your resulting code should look like this:

<?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

Save the file, and that should do it.

I am having the same problem, but it appears the code has been updated since March. Those lines of code aren't in index.php…. any thoughts?

Actually they are. (if you're looking at version 3.451)

Make sure you're working with the "index.php" file that's located in the Market theme folder.

However… A new version of Market (version 3.5) will be in the download center in about 30 minutes. It actually has a settings page that you can turn off the comment icon and # of comments with a mouse click. You might seriously consider reinstalling this new one, as it's FAR better than any previous version. Setup and customizing is a breeze in comparison.
