I am playing around with the stock Forum module in drupal. What I would like to do is to HIDE the taxonomy (forum) dropdown on the forum node creation page. When a user navigates to a particular sub-forum on the main forum, and click create topic, it automatically selects the forum (which is a drupal vocabulary) to post in. So there is no need to have them see this. I just see it as problematic, because they can select and change this to another forum area, which is unnecessary. Also, if they go to edit it, they can then move it into another forum area as well. I want to avoid this. Easiest way would be to hide the term from the node add and edit pages. How can I accomplish this?

The quick cheap hack is to find the classes unique to this field (by inspecting the page in firebug for example) add display:none to the theme css for them. Don't hack the css in core, you can add overriding css in a custom stylesheet.
