Removing Title field from data entry menu from Lists
- Feb 01, 2023
LouiseAspman I assume you mean it's still showing in the list form. To remove it click the New button in the top left, then in the form click the pen & paper icon at the top right, select Edit columns. The columns in your list will be shown and you can de-select the Title column then click Save. Then just click the x in the top right to close the panel. You can also re-order the columns and change the layout of the form.

Hi, Rob, and thanks for your effort. When I try this solution, all the fields are grayed out and cannot be deselected.
Can you think of a reason why?
Kindly,
Tom

tpalongi You can make the Title column non-required by following the steps:
- Go to your SharePoint list
- Click on Settings (gear) icon from top right corner and select List settings
- From list settings page, scroll down to Columns section and click on Title column. It will open column settings page for Title column
- Set below option to No and click OK button at the bottom page to save the changes:
- Then you can hide the Title column from list form by following the steps given by Rob_Elliott in above responses.
Please consider giving a Like if my post helped you in any way.

tpalongi if they are required columns in your list then you won't be able to de-select them from the form.
