NetBox version

v3.4.7

Feature type

New functionality

Proposed functionality

I would suggest if it is possible to hide all the empty and None tables/fields on the "overview" page not meaning the front page but for example the site page overview. As for now some field are show only because they have "None" as info.

To keep clean overview page and not that cluttered with all kinds of "None" fields.
As some also dont provide any kind of button.

Use case

When you also use plugins you get extra field on the overview page of example sites / devices etc.
These field like Contacts/Locations/images/tags/comments can mostly be empty or none.
As you didnt provide or create any information for it.

Saving space on the overview page by default hide the tables/field with "none" until they are filled in.
It then it doesnt feel that busy and cluttered.

As more and more info is being provided in Netbox and not everything is being used by everybody.

Knowing that this is a choice that someone doesnt use it ofcourse any other might be using it.

@kkthxbye-code commented on GitHub (Apr 26, 2023):

I personally don't think this is a good idea at all. The position of fields would never be consistent, so there's no way to learn how to find stuff. Seems like terrible UX.
