Best practice for hiding/removing unneeded product fields?

(1/1)

dharding:
In an effort to streamline data entry and product creation, I would like to either hide or move to the bottom of the page, those fields that I do not plan to move.

Are there any recommended best practices in this regard? I assume the only way to do this is to edit the code in one of the .tpl files. Is that correct?

Thank you.

Basara:
Be careful to not hide required or important fields like Store

dharding:
Could you please tell me which .tpl file is the one to edit for the "general" data entry section for products? I can't make heads or tails out of all the physical files and when I search for control names shown in source, I come up empty.

Thank you.

Here is the TPL

I would suggest creating a quick extension and hooking to product controller and hiding data in there.
You can hook from extension core file.

EDIT: I figured it out, thanks.
