Yes, you can hide irrelevant product fields in Webflow's eCommerce editor to only show your clients the necessary fields. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Log in to your Webflow account and open your project.
  2. Go to the CMS Collections panel by selecting "Collections" from the top navigation menu.
  3. Choose the collection that contains the product fields you want to hide.
  4. In the collection editor, click on the field you want to hide for your client.
  5. In the field settings panel on the right side, you'll find the "Visibility" section.
  6. Under "Visible to", select the "CMS Editors" option.
  7. Save your changes.

By setting the visibility of a field to "CMS Editors", only the owners and editors of the site will be able to see and modify that field. Clients who have access to the site's CMS will not see these fields, making it easier for them to focus on the necessary information.

It's important to note that this feature is only available for CMS fields and not for elements on your website pages. If you want to hide certain fields on product pages or other pages of your site, you'll need to use custom code or conditional visibility settings.

By hiding irrelevant product fields in the Webflow eCommerce editor, you can simplify the user interface for your clients and ensure that they only see the necessary fields, making it easier for them to manage and update their products.
