      On the Enrolled Users page of a course, there are sortable fields that can not be removed or hidden: First name - phonetic / Surname - phonetic / Middle name / Alternate name.

      I believe this was added in 2.8 (see: https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-46921). Great addition if you use those but if not, there is no way to remove them from showing and it takes up precious space and makes it look cluttered.

      Going to Administration/Users/Permissions/User Policies and changing settings here has no effect on removing those listed sortable fields.
