This module allows specific fields on nodes, blocks, comments, taxonomy terms, and user profiles to be hidden from the user interface. This helps to simplify forms and improve the user experience for content editors.

Simplify module is ported to D8 by Dom. See related issue for current status, roadmap and feature request:
#2501637: [META] D8 port: Roadmap and Feature Request

7.x-3.x

The 3.x version is a complete rewrite of the original Simplify module and is recommended for all users. It will receive bug fixes and new features as they become available.

The 2.x version is the original Simplify module written by markoshust. It will only receive bug fixes in future. All users are recommended to upgrade to 3.x and run update.php.
