I don’t think you can turn it off entirely. If you want to hide the counter, though, you can do so with CSS.

You can right-click the counter and Inspect it.

If you just want to hide it, then I think you can use this (in common-CSS of theme or theme component):

```scss
.topic-map __contents .topic-map__ stats .fk-d-menu__trigger {
    display: none;
}

```

If you want to do it for specific category:

```scss
.category-[your-category-slug] {
.topic-map __contents .topic-map__ stats .fk-d-menu__trigger {
    display: none;
  }
}

```

…and yes, I pretty much did what @NateDhaliwal said above to get that. The link he posted above tells you how to make those kind of modifications.
