Sharepoint List: Removing the Title column in form

Are you bothered with the "Title" column and can't find ways to actually remove it from the edit form? Yes you can easily remove that column from the view but inserting new record?

Here is the simple solution to your problem:

1. On your list page click -> List Setting -> Advance Setting
2. Select yes on "Allow management of content type" and click ok.
3. You'll see "Content types" option on the settings page which will have the "Item" content type.
4. Click the "item" and it will take you to a page that will able you to hide the column.
5. Clicking on the "Title" will give the form where you can hide the column completely. Click on "Hidden" under "Column settings" option in this page and hit Ok.




well pretty simple indeed!
