This is a fairly simple extension which allows you to hide certain fields on the Gallery publish (New Entry & Edit Entry) pages.

Nothing fancy, but I needed it for a site I’m creating, so I thought I’d share. (I use custom fields instead of the caption field as it’s a multilingual site, and I need captions in both languages.)

v1.0.0: First Release. The Entry Date and Caption fields can be hidden via options on the extension’s settings page. When hidden, the Entry Date field will use the current date and time for new entries, and will not change the date and time for old entries. When hidden, the Caption field will be left blank.

v1.1.0: Added ability to hide the Allow Comments checkbox. When hidden, the Allow Comments checkbox will be checked if Allow Comments By Default? is set to yes in the gallery’s preferences and unchecked if not.

v1.1.1: Should work more consistently now (the td’s class can be one of two values, the extension now checks for both).
