[Resolved] Remove items from sidebar in admin adding new custom post

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

I'm wondering if it's possible to hide the options "Status & Visibility, "Permalink", "Page Attributes", and "Content Template".

Solution:

You can remove "Page Attributes" metabox by these:

Dashboard-> Toolset-> Post types, find and edit your custom post type, in section "Sections to display when editing", disable option:
"Page Attributes"

You can hide all those metaboxes for current logged-in user, by these:

Edit/create a post, click the "Option" button, see screenshot: option.PNG, click "Preferences" link, Click the “Panels” tab, and disable those options.

Hi,

I'm wondering if it's possible to hide the options "Status & Visibility, "Permalink", "Page Attributes", and "Content Template".

All I need to display when adding a new post is the taxonomies (in my case Languages & Topics).

Is there a simple way to accomplish this?

Also, now that I'm thinking about it- if there are only taxonomies on the sidebar, is there a way to push them to the center area below the custom fields and have it as a full width page with the taxonomies on bottom?

Thank You!

Thanks Luo! That was a big help.

And is there a way to move the taxonomy terms off of the sidebar and to below the main custom field area? Or there's no simple solution for that.

Thanks so much

Unfortunately, there isn't such kind of feature within Toolset plugins or WordPress core, you should be able to see the same result when edit any post, you can not move the taxonomy terms off of the sidebar and to below the main custom field area, there isn't simple solution for that
