3.4.2.5.6.4. Hiding Metadata Items During Project Creation

Prerequisites

• This feature is available since Strawberry 6.4.19.

About

Strawberry allows Administrators to hide specific metadata items from users when they create projects manually. Although these items are hidden during project creation, they can still be accessed and modified once a project has been created.

Metadata items can only be hidden if the following conditions are met:

• The metadata item must be a text input field or a dropdown menu. It is not possible to hide number generators or replacement patterns.
• The metadata item is not Mandatory.
• The metadata item is not flagged as Use in Project String.

Usage

* When performing the below steps while users are signed into Strawberry, the following steps will not take effect until reloading the user interface or signing out and back in again.

1. Sign into the Strawberry admin panel.
2. Click on the Projects tab.
3. Click on the Custom Project Metadata bar to expand it.
4. Expand the custom metadata set that includes the item you wish to hide.
5. Next to the item is a checkbox named Hide During Creation. Check the box to hide the metadata field.
