Remove the number of posts displayed in wp_list_categories()

Question

When I use wp_list_categories(), it results in the number of posts in a category being shown, how do I hide the number?

For example: I have xyz category, it has 3 posts, the result will be:

xyz(3)

Answer 1

By default wp_list_categories() doesn't show post count, because show_count is set to false, check arguments passed into wp_list_categories().
