Q:

Hide SMS message in notification bar

I am using Moto E powered by Android Kitkat.
When I receive an SMS, I get a notification displaying the sender name with the message. I don't want the message text to be displayed in the notification, just the sender name is enough. 
How can I prevent the message text from being displayed?
NOTE: I don't want to stop the notification. I just want to hide the text message in the notification

A:

GoSMS Pro has a "Notification bar privacy mode" option, which 'shows "New Message" instead of the message's content'. 

I personally use Sliding SMS (which is a standalone app created for and taken from CyanogenMod 10). It has an option to enable "Privacy Mode", which hides the sender and message from the status bar notification. 8sms (which is also from CM10 M2) also has this option.
