What is the best way to remove a field from a content provider in NodeStream?

  • Feature Override
  • Installation profile trick
  • Hook_form_alter (too ugly?)
  • Some completely different magic

Our use case as an example:
We would like to be able to remove some fields (node reference fields) from ns_page because we use Entity Reference as an alternative for some of the reference fields in field group Attachments. We use ER because it solves the "back reference" problem in a beautiful way.

Make Feature Override a link.

The solution for this is now to use test the new branch, 7.x-2.x-remove-fields-from-features out. This will make it possible to make whatever changes you need in your own features.

I'm setting this to fixed, since this should not be a problem anymore.
