if Comments are disabled within single Blog Entry Settings and there is previously no comment added for the blog entry, then i think should be the Comments counter hidden..because currently guest user see still a 0 Comments Counter Link, but nothing happens if they click on it...also a message like "Comments are disabled for this specific blog entry" could help.
Hello René,

Sorry for late reply to this,
If you disable the show comment link option from your theme setting, then the comment counter will not display on the frontpage and single entry blog page, am i missing something here? Please advise.

i guess there is something not working with your fix in JoomlaFolder\components\com_easyblog\themes\default\blog.read.php LINE 59

there is also another fix in my current blog.read.php file! please make also sure your ftp use binär as transfer type, because i got additional rows in your last modified file.

Hello Rene,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Hmm could you mind elaborate more detail about what is " line 2 is now line 3..line 3 is now line 5 " or provide some screenshot
In my local file without space -> line 59 ( http://screencast.com/t/04S1L6panBZ ) , regarding with your file -> Line 117 ( http://screencast.com/t/sUtrIUcSTB )
