The comment.hbs script is responsible for creating the overall HTML for each comment.
To not display the avatar next to each posted comment:
- copy comment.hbs from libs to apps
- select /libs/social/commons/components/hbs/comments/comment/comment.hbs
- select Copy
- select /apps/social/commons/components/hbs/comments/comment
- select Paste
- open the overlaid comment.hbs
- double-click on node comment.hbs in /apps/social/commons/components/hbs/comments/comment folder
- find the following lines and either delete or comment them out:
<aside class="scf-comment-author"> <img class="scf-comment-avatar {{#if topLevel}}withTopLevel{{/if}}" src="{{author.avatarUrl}}"></img>
Either delete the lines, or surround them with '<!--' and '-->' to comment them out. Also, the characters 'xxx' are being added as a visual indicator of where the avatar would have been.
xxx <!-- do not display avatar with comment <aside class="scf-comment-author"> <img class="scf-comment-avatar {{#if topLevel}}withTopLevel{{/if}}" src="{{author.avatarUrl}}"></img>
Note:
A more robust form of replication would be to create a package in Package Manager and activate it. A package can be exported and archived.
From the global navigation, select Tools, Deployment, Replication and then Activate Tree.
For the Start Path enter /apps/social/commons and select Activate.

If you login to the publish instance as an administrator, e.g., http://localhost:4503/crx/de as admin/admin, you can verify the overlaid components are there.
If you logout and re-login as aaron.mcdonald@mailinator.com/password and refresh the page, you will observe that the posted comment no longer displays with an avatar, instead a simple 'xxx' is displayed.
