Tell us what you are trying to do?

When uploading a new Product, I noticed that a bunch of custom fields have appeared on the Vendor Dashboard - see attached. And there is also the option to add more Custom Fields - see red square.

I dont know where this came from..and as far as I know I did not modify the Product templates in any way. How do I get rid of this extra confusing stuff?

Is there any documentation that you are following? no

Is there a similar example that we can see? original did not have these extra fields

What is the link to your site? hidden link

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

The red square in your screenshot is the native WordPress custom fields area. https://wordpress.org/support/article/custom-fields/

You can hide it from the screen options, check this screenshot hidden link

I hope this helps.
