Remove Express Checkout from Simple Theme (instructions don't work)

Hi All,

Customers seem to drop out after seeing only three payment methods in checkout, the Express Payment bar. And so decide to skip buying a book form us!

I found instructions in this link:

https://community.shopify.com/c/blog/remove-the-express-checkout-buttons-from-first-checkout-page/ba-p/1200898

But it doesn’t work for the Simple Theme..
The code:

value="{{ 'cart.general.checkout' | t }}"

.. is embedded in a button tag, instead of the example in the instruction-website.
So it looks like this:


I tried adding the block-code (step 1.4 in the instructions) with bringing the button lcosing tag to a next line, and pasting the block in between. And of course added the styles. But, I guess obviously, this did not work.

Can anybody help with this?

Thanks!

My edits:

card.liquid


                
                {{ 'cart.general.continue_shopping' | t }}
              

              

theme.scss.liquid

.additional-checkout-buttons {
  display: none !important;
}

Nobody knows? Is there a helpdesk I can ask these questions?
