 * Hi there,
   We are about to start using Zephyr Project Manager (have purchased 
   the Pro version) and so far, it can do everything we need it to do BUT we would
   like to create tasks using Templates and Custom Fields and at the same time remove
   some of the “default” fields like “Team”, “Category”, “Parent task” etc. as this
   is confusing for some users.Is it possible to do this?Cheers!

 * Hi there,
 * Thanks so much for getting in touch.
 * I’ve added this to the feature request list to add it as an option in the plugin.
 * However, this can be achieved with the custom CSS code I’ve prepared below, which
   can be added to Zephyr > Settings > Advanced > Custom CSS:
 * .zpm-new-task–parent-task,
   .zpm-new-task-task–categories,.zpm-new-task-field__team{
   display: none;}
 * .zpm-edit-task-field__team,
   .zpm-new-task-task–categories,.zpm-new-task-task–
   categories + label,[data-ajax-name=”parentID”] + .chosen-container {display: 
   none;}
 * Please let me know if this helps.
 * Thanks for your time.
 * Best regards,
 * Dylan

 * Hi Dylan,
   Thanks for the quick reply and for adding this to the feature request.
   I have tried the custom CSS you provided, and it doesn’t seem to work.
 * I have tried adding it to the Zephyr Project Manager CSS section and also to 
   the main WordPress Site CSS section but no luck as the fields are still appearing.
 * Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?
 * Cheers.

 * Hi,
 * My apologies for the trouble. I found the issue which is that the forum text 
   editor replaces the double dashes with em dashes instead, and the double quotes
   are changed to different quotes causing the CSS not to work correctly.
 * I’ve added a pastebin link to the unformatted code to avoid reformatting issues
   in the forum. Could I kindly ask you to use that instead and confirm if it works?

 * Thank you.
 * Best regards,
 * Dylan
