You can specify the order in which a custom field appears in the Additional Information section as well as remove a custom field from these pages without permanently deleting the field from the system. Although it’s possible to move standard fields onto the page layout, by default they already appear in the Idea Detail section at the top of the page and their order is not customizable. However, you can drag the Status field to the Additional Information section to have the status of an idea appear in the page layout.
Note The label and layout of the Additional
Information section can’t be customized.
