In the Template Editor, double-click the Section or Field you want to Delete. Then select Delete and confirm:
Please Note: If the option is disabled (greyed out), it is because the Section / Field is owned by a parent Template. If you want to hide the field, you may be able to simply change the visibility of the field, or edit the Trust template.
If the item only exists in Draft then it will be permanently deleted. If the item is already Published then it will be marked as deleted.

This will allow you to locate and select your deleted item. Just double-click to open the Field Editor and use the Restore button.
