You may want to remove support for specific post type features from your post editing section in WordPress. Every feature has a code that is given below to help with removing the support.
Instructions: Add the following code to the functions.php file of your WordPress theme.
You need to change the word ‘post’ to anything you like including a custom post type name or the default post, page.
//'title' (Post Title)
//'editor' (content)
//'author' (Author controls)
//'thumbnail' (featured image) (current theme must also support Post Thumbnails)
//'excerpt' (Excerpt functionality)
//'trackbacks' (Options)
//'custom-fields' (Custom Fields)
//'comments' (also will see comment count balloon on edit screen)
//'revisions' (will store revisions)
//'page-attributes' (template and menu order) (hierarchical must be true)
add_action( 'admin_init', 'wps_cpt_support' );
function wps_cpt_support() {
remove_post_type_support( 'post', 'title' );
remove_post_type_support( 'post', 'comments' );
}

Is there an equivalent function for removing custom post type fields from an edit screen?
