Hide field in backend edit screens

Hello Dave,

You can use the code to register the meta box and custom fields, then use the WordPress function is_admin() to check if the current screen isn't in the admin area and register the fields. Here is an example https://support.metabox.io/topic/rwmb_frontend_validate-and-empty-id-in-config/#post-46359

if ( ! is_admin() ) {	

	$meta_boxes[] = [
		'title'   => 'Filter Products',
		'post_types' => 'product',
		'id'      => 'filter-products',
		'context' => 'normal',
		'fields'  => ...............
	];
}

Refer to the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/creating-fields-with-code/

Hello Dave,

If it is one field, you can separate the field into another field group and register it with code.

Or use the conditional logic, create a custom callback to check the admin area and add it to the logic setting. Please follow the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-conditional-logic/#custom-callback
