I was trying to hide the username & password fields on the registration form while leaving some additional fields visible. I am unable to do so.
is there any way to hide the username, email and password fields ?
I agree that this request may sound absurd as those three fields form the core of the registration process. but please bear with me.

I am encountering a similar problem. The Manage Display = hidden settings are not being honored for a field that I've added to the user registration form. I am also use Profile 2 and have tried to hide fields "hidden" setting is not being honored there either.

Offhand, you could either isolate via CSS (won't stop automated registration) or alter the form from a custom module / unset(), (I believe). It would help to know what your goal is :) !

P.S. Is Rules the appropriate queue for this?

@howard: you're probably also in the wrong issue queue?

Regardless, I'm not sure if user profile forms allow you to hide field? Profile 2 is another question. You may need some debugging. See above.

Hi, this is possible using Rules forms:
1- Activate the "event activation message" on the "Rules Forms Support" settings screen
2- Visit the registration form.
3- Click on the "Activate user_register_form" link
4- Visit the registration form again so that rules_forms builds the elements
5- Create a new rule with event: "User register form is being built"
6- Set action "Hide an element in the form" for each field you want to hide.
