RE: We do not need the Title, Organization, or Department fields on our registration form. Can these fields be blocked using shortcodes?

No, there is no shortcode to remove those with. You can use CSS to hide them. Like so:

#cn-form #cn-metabox-section-title,
#cn-form #cn-metabox-section-organization,
#cn-form #cn-metabox-section-department {
    display: none;
}

You would add this to the theme’s custom CSS area. If you allow the user to chose the entry type to submit, this is not going to work well, because when they toggle the selection, the fields will unhide according to their choice.

RE: If not can required fields be highlighted with an asterisk?

I thought This might be able to be done with CSS too, but I tried a few things unsuccessfully. So, the only way to add these would to be to edit the PHP. The you would have to adjust the CSS styles to account for the space the asterisks would take up.

RE: can the Image input be eliminated?

Yes, in the settings. Navigate to the Connections : Settings admin page and click the Form tab. You can choose which fieldsets to display and in what order.

Hope this helps!
