# General tips and tricks

## No description

If you want an entry not to have a visible Description block at the top, you can edit the entry and switch the editor to Code view using the `</>` button in the toolbar (Summernote) or the `/source` command (Tiptap). There, delete everything and save without going back to Visual mode.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note that this will not work when editing the description specifically (using the pencil icon in the corner), as that form won’t allow you to submit an empty field. You need to use the overall entry’s Edit button.

It also won’t work in visual mode because Summernote will usually insert a `<br>` tag if you save with a seemingly empty field, though this may vary depending on your browser.

I have not tested this on the new editor as of March 2026.
{% endhint %}

I find this especially useful in Timelines and Calendars, where there often is no need for an introductory text above the actual content and you otherwise end up with an empty box.
