No , You can’t delete it. Fixed fields are necessary to collect the basic information from attendees. So even if event admin does not create custom fields, he/she will still be able to accept registrations from attendees.

How do I add contacts to my conference/event?
To add a contact, go to Contacts.
Click on Add New Contact on top right.
Choose a User type from the left section.
User type is used to determine the contact type and display the fields accordingly viz. Contact, Attendee, Author, Reviewer, Staff.
After choosing the user type, enter the details for the contact.
If you want to make this contact a speaker or a moderator, make this contact as an attendee first, and then save it. After the page reloads,
click on Make Speaker button to create this attendee as either a speaker or a
moderator. Technically, a speaker is an attendee so that’s why we made
it mandatory to make contact an attendee before he/she could be made
into a speaker/moderator.
The username and password you set for this contact will be emailed to him/her once you click on Send credentials button on top. Before clicking on the button, make sure you have saved the data.
How to display user type in notification emails?
Let’s say, you are registering reviewers and want to notify them that they have been registered as reviewer.
To display reviewers that they have been registered
as ‘Reviewer’ on your conference site, use this shortcode wherever you
want to display it: {user_type}
For example, to
display this message “Hi, you have been made a Reviewer for the CNEG
conference”, you need to add usertype shortcode like this: “Hi, you have
been made a {user_type} for the CNEG conference”.
This will display the usertype for which this user has been registered. Please ignore the apostrophe.
How do I edit/update a contact’s information?
To edit a contact, go to Contacts. Click on the contact’s name which you want to edit. If you do not see the respective contact in the list, do a search with contact name or ID. After you’re done editing, click on Save on the top right.
Imported a CSV file using Import Contacts function but I do not see contacts in my list.
This happens when you have unwanted characters in the excel sheet copied from other sources.
The
way to make sure your data in excel sheet is clean is to copy the data
from source, paste it into notepad, and then copy from notepad and paste
it in to excel sheet. Notepad cleans all unwanted, hidden characters in
the text being imported.
Simply download our sample file
to use as the template and paste your notepad-cleaned data in that
sample file and then import it using the Import contact function.
PS.
This is not something you would be doing for long since we are soon
going to implement an automated cleaner to clean all the unwanted
characters from the source.
How can I change my email address?
Go to backend dashboard -> Hover mouse on your name and profile image which is located on right upper corner of
the site -> Click on My profile > Click on contact details tab -> Change your email
address -> Click on save button.
