How to remove admin list columns

ehaeick107

Hello. I am trying to remove certain columns in some of the admin lists that I don’t particularly need. I created an extension to do this, but I am not sure what to put in my extension to do so. For example, how would I remove the column under the customers group that has their phone number so it doesn’t show when the admin clicks on the customers tab?

I think you’re looking for the admin.list.extendColumns event - check out something like https://github.com/CupNoodles/ti-ext-printerstar/blob/a67dee8917ca529a8dce1d80935da60694e62a98/Extension.php to see how it’s used (though that one’s a bit messy to read….).

jorgelig But also how to do it is in the boot method of your extension write

use <Model Name Path>

Event::listen('admin.list.extendColumns', function ($widget) {
    if ($widget->model instanceof <Model Name> {
        $widget->removeColumns(<Column Name>);
        $columns = [<Column Configuration Array>];
        $widget->addColumns($columns);
    }
}
