Hide (remove) Title Field in SharePoint list

By default, a new SharePoint custom list comes with a required field named ‘Title’. While sometimes I’ve found a use for the column, even if I have to rename it, I often find that I just don’t need this text field in my list. SharePoint doesn’t let you delete the Title column, but you can hide it so that it’s not required – and no one will ever see it.
Here are the steps required to hide the Title column:

1. From the list view click Settings->List Settings
2. On the Settings Screen, under the ‘General Settings’ heading, click ‘Advanced Settings’
3. On the Advanced Settings screen click ‘Yes’ for the value: ‘Allow Management of Content Types?’
4. Click ‘OK’
5. Now, back on the Settings Screen, under the ‘Content Types’ heading, click ‘Item’
6. On the Content Type Management Screen, under the ‘Columns’ section, click on the ‘Title’ column
7. On the next screen click the radio button for ‘Hidden (Will not appear in forms)’
8. Click ‘OK’

Now the column will not show on you New and Edit Item forms – although you may need to hide it from any views you have setup for the list.
