An ESPFE light plugin hiding the Ordinator smithing specialization perks from the Active Effects menu. For example, Crystalline Smithing or Contemporary Meric Smithing.
The plguin requires this as a master, and its changes would be meaningless without it.

Changelogs
Version 1.0.1
Added a version for use with Complete Crafting Overhaul Remastered, keeping the Advanced and Orcish Smithing perks hidden and forwarding its name and description changes.
Added a little bit of a plugin metadata that didn't merit its own release.
Version 1.0.0
Initial upload.
For arcane technical reasons that I'm content for now to treat as magic, when we pick a smithing specialization from Ordinator's Smithing perk tree, we're given a magic effect to let us actually start working glass, dragon bones, orichalcum, or what have you. However, I've never seen any need for why these effects are allowed to clog up our list of active effects, intermingling with the usual Fortify Health and Resist Shock, when the same information is there in the perk tree.
While trawling the Creation Kit tutorials one day, I stumbled upon mention of the flag that determines whether effects like these are shown in the UI. After a bit of self-experimentation (as any truly mad scientist would do) I've published the resultant plugin for use by anyone else who shares in this very particular bugbear.
The mod is an ESPFE light plugin, so you needn't worry about it taking a full load order slot - it'll automatically merge into the 0xFE position. Obviously, you'll need to have Ordinator installed in the first place.
