Hide Number Count Total in SharePoint Modern Experience List

Question

I have a list in SharePoint modern experience, and my customer wants the total count, which appears in parenthesis (), to not display.

I've seen scripts that work for 2013 or 2010, but using the SharePoint Online modern Experience is different.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

This is not possible using SharePoint out of the box capabilities as there is no configuration setting to hide the count of grouping.

Documentation: Use grouping to modify a SharePoint view

You will need custom solution for this using SharePoint framework.

One way to achieve this is using Application customizer SPFx extension to inject custom CSS in your modern page and hide the grouping item count.

Update from comments:

This is now possible using SharePoint JSON formatting. Try using below JSON code in View formatting settings:

{
    "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/row-formatting.schema.json",
    "groupProps": {
        "headerFormatter": {
            "elmType": "div",
            "txtContent": "@group.fieldData"
        }
    }
}
