Still catching up, sorry for being late to the party here @tobiaseigen 🙂

A minor observation, would it be considered inconsistent to have four of the `Site Activity` statistics “in the last 7 days” and one of the statistics “today” ?

### Hiding “Site activity” section

The old About page had a “stats” class on a div that allowed “Site activity” to be easily suppressed via custom CSS:

```css
//suppress site statistics on old About page

.stats {
    display: none;
}

```

The new About page lacks this div class. It would be nice to have, but for anyone else not wanting site stats shown, here’s a way to suppress the separate elements as they’re currently rendered:

```css
// suppress site statistics on NEW About page

.about__right-side H3:nth-of-type(2), 
.about __right-side .about__ activities, 
.traffic-info-footer, {
    display: none;
}

```

Hello, I really like this new about page but I have one quick question, where is the community owner shown? I see the field for it in the settings, but when saved I don’t see it on the public page. Is this an unfinished feature or is it just going to be used for critical notifications and not shown on /about? Thanks.

From an end user perspective this makes lese sense to exclude from the about page. The distinction between a category moderator and a moderator is rather less meaningful to an end user versus from a developer point of view. From a community user perspective it would be useful for them to be able to see category moderators there as well IMHO.

We are an events venue that uses discourse to list all our community events, and have a group for our regular organizers and marked them as category moderators. We used the about page to highlight them as the team that makes those events possible. We don’t want to elevate them to moderator status globally just to be listed on the about page, since they are only within the “events” category.

Is this something likely to be added back to the new about page or should we look at an alternative way of doing it?

### Edit: Nevermind, I’m silly. There is a great theme component that solves this exact problem. (thanks @Moin)

There is a #Customization > Theme component with which you can add groups to the about page.
