Hi
This extra files tab is for the portfolio menu type, If you want to use the Joomla extra fields you can use them too, it will not affect your changes.
Path of this extra field file is in the template folder/etc/extra field.

Thanks for replaying.

So, if i want to remove "extra field" tab, just delete folder "/etc/" ?

Hi
Why do you want to remove it?
If you will remove you will no longer apply the feature of extra fields that comes with the template.
If you want to use Joomla extra files you can not use them with this.

Hi Pankaj,

Thanks for quicky replay!

I dont want to use the EXTRA Fields. I just want to use the Joomla CUSTOM Fields.

I want to remove the EXTRA Fields Tab when editing an article, and just see the CUSTOM Fields Tab.

So, just delete folder "/etc/" and all its content ?

Hi
Just Remove the Portfolio.xml file in this folder.
Do not delete etc folder as it has layout files as well.

Thank you.

Just one thing more: When i will update in a future the template… Is it going to auto-create the file again?
(just for being careful about this in a future, thanks)

maybe if I used the /local/etc/ folder should be better?

Hi
Local folder is used to override the changes but if you are removing something from the core files, it will created when you update the template.
