If you are a WordPress user and you are utilizing the WordPress stats services you’ve probably noticed that the service also comes is a very small smiley face addition to your blog footer. The smiley was added as a visual way to ensure the stats are tracking and is not something that can be removed directly from the plugin code.
Like many other bloggers I do like the WordPress stats service but do not really care for the footer smiley addition. I see questions regarding removing the smiley all the time in the WordPress forums. WordPress.org does offer documentation for hiding the tiny mark but it seems people have trouble finding the page.
If any of you would like to hide your WordPress Stats footer smiley it can be easily done with one line of code added to your theme’s stylesheet (style.css). Just add the following and you’ll be all set.
img#wpstats{width:0px;height:0px;padding:0px;border:none;overflow:hidden}
Back to blogging.
