 * Hi,
    i wish i could hide some admin fields (for example organizer website or 
   price). I saw it’s possible to create a child theme ([https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/](https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/)).
   Those fields are located in /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/src/admin-
   views/events-meta-box.php. So, i created a child theme in my theme and put a 
   copy of this file in /wp-content/themes/mytheme/tribe-events/admin-views/events-
   meta-box.php. But it doesn’t seem to work. Am i in the right folder ? (and is
   it only possible to do what i want to achieve this way) Thanks 😉

 * Hey there,
 * Thanks for reaching out! 😃
 * Adding a directory within tribe-events won’t work for admin views, we only scan
   these for standard views. Though part of what you explained will work, there’s
   no way to prevent the override of your changes when the plugin is updated.
 * Have a great day!

 * Thanks for your reply Ed, too bas it’s not possible. I managed to hide the admin
   fields with css but it’s not the most satisfying answer to this problem, especially
   since the organizer field for example creates a custom post type that i don’t
   need. It would be great to have the possibility to disable those fields in the
   options.
    Best regards.
