In the web app entry editor, "Show disabled fields" becomes Show hidden fields, and in the content type modelling field settings, the "Disable editing" option becomes Hide field when editing. With this small change we aim at better reflecting what this simple option really does.

To disable a field so that it can no longer be edited, we recommend adding a new deny rule in the “Roles & permissions” settings to explicitly deny editing on a specific field. See our revised content modelling basics - field managment help center documentation for details.
