Hello,

Is it possible to disable / not visible fields for Employer etc? Also not visible at the Summary. I don't use this. (Employer, Job Title, Nickname, Source)

Thanks

You have  to create  custom .tpl file in your custom templates directory. You can find more info here:

Hello S.

If i have it right,

I make a directory for template files,
i change the template directory in the system settings
i copy the summary.tpl and edit this file in the template directory

Below are the steps :
1) Create the custom template directory.
2) Set the path of custom directory in CiviCRM.
3) Copy the files you want to modify ( eg. if you want to modify  civicrm/templates/CRM/Contact/Page/View/Summary.tpl than copy the file in CUSTOM_DIRECTORY_PATH/CRM/Contact/Page/View/Summary.tpl . you need to copy files in the same directory structure as in core CiviCRM )

Its done !

If you still not able to see the changes you have made in template , check your directory path OR try deleting files under sites/default/files/civicrm/templates_c.
