XF 2.2 Hide Custom Thread Field

[PASS]

How can I hide this custom thread field from showing once the new thread is made?

Find the Field id for that field and add this to your style's extra.less template (change id to the actual id)

[data-field="id"]
{display:none!important}

There is another way also.

You have the option of three places to display the custom field:

• Before Message
• After message
• Thread Status block

If you intend to never use any one of these positions, you can just hide that specific position.

So for example I never use the After message position. Any fields I don't want displayed I use that, and then the one piece of code covers them all:

.message-fields--after

{display:none}

This works great. Thank you!

Is there a conditional I can use for that field in the template (post_macros & thread_view) so it doesn't show in the page source?

We need a 4th option, Do Not Show.

Not that is within my limited abilities to work out.

Custom thread field option: hidden

You don't always want a thread field to display, for example on my classified forum I have a tickbox for users to say they agree to abide by the rules of that forum. But there is not really any point in displaying that, it's more a thing that if there is any dispute I can always say "hang on...
