Hey,

Was just wondering there is a way to remove the fields I am not using when entering product information - I will be training people to enter product details and the few areas and fields they have to see the easier it will be for them and less chance of them making a mistake.

Thank you in advance :)

Hi,

Yes. You can edit the files of the view "product" of the backend for your backend template via the menu Display->Views and remove the form elements you don't need.

Ok I have found the area I need to go to see the list of files - I am really confused to which one I need to edit though.

Client: Backend
Template: Protostar (Which is what I am using for the site)
View: ?
File: ?

Been messing around to see if I could figure it out - to no avail :(

I assumed that editing (as a final resort deleting all code) in:

Client: Back-end
Template: Protostar (Which is what I am using for the site)
View: product
File: category

Would remove the category area on the page where the admin enter the product details - To my suprize it seems removing the code did nothing at all - Which means I am doing something wrong... :) Time to try again :)

Decided to attach 2 images of what I want to remove. The sections with the big red crosses are the parts I want gone :)






Thank you again in advance :)

Remember that you're on your backend. You need to edit the files for your backend template so it's isis not protostar. That's why you don't see any change.

Oh Isis that was the issues - laughing and kicking myself right now - I was editing the right code, just on the wrong template.

Thank you so much for your help :)
