Disable the parameter \"Create Custom Fields\" in the options of any extension supporting custom fields (eg com_content)\r\n2. Access the fields / fields group managemant views by using the URL directly (or reload it from earlier visits). Eg \"administrator/index.php?option=com_categories&view=categories&extension=com_content.article.fields\" for field groups and \"administrator/index.php?option=com_fields&context=com_content.article\" for fields.\r\n3. Try to created / edit / delete the items.\r\n\r\n### Expected result\r\nShouldn't work since we have disabled the feature.\r\n\r\n### Actual result\r\nEverything is still manageable. The only thing that option does is show/hide the links in the sidebar.\r\n\r\n### Additional comments\r\nImho, that parameter could be removed safely. If anything, the links should be based on ACL, eg only showing the links if the user is allowed to do anything in it.\r\nThe other way would be to enable/disable custom fields completely, doing several checks in com_fields. Eg if we disable the option, custom fields also wouldn't be shown anymore for that extension.\r\nOnly having the option to enable some menu links doesn't make sense to me."}}
