Removing Unnecessary Fields

Hi, brand new to Asana, my team has tasked me with cleaning up the visual appearance of our Projects board. I have noticed that with each task card there are a lot of unused fields, I see that fields with a drop down you can delete but all the other do not have this option. Is there way to freely edit the fields available across the entire board or even on a card by card basis. Examples of unused fields would be, Vote count, attachment count, comment count, checklist item total, check list item completed count. Is this a premium feature or possible at all.

Thanks
Aaron

Hi @anon31679410, welcome to the Asana Community Forum! You can currently remove field from a project following the steps in this article: How to Create and Use Custom Fields in Asana | Product Guide • Asana Product Guide

If you cannot remove the fields, it can be because you are using an Asana Created Template.

I hope this helps!

Hi Emily, thank you for the quick response. I think we started out with an Asana Template, is there a way to convert an asana template board to a non template. We have populated the board with tasks and projects already, is there an easy way to convert it out so we can edit these fields?

Hi, I’m wondering if you might have any insight into how to undo hiding a field in a project? It’s only mildly relevant to the original question! Thank you!
