Turn off online/offline notifications in game log area

Post by xobxela »

Hi! I was trying to find out how to turn off the notifications you get when your friends go offline or come online as they can fill up the space for the game log information and push it down way off the screen. However, when looking in preferences I couldn't work out where to turn them off. Please help!

Go to edit your profile and in the advanced tab copy this code:

#logs > .log:not(.log_replayable) {
display: none !important;
}

Note that you won't be able to view the bugs reports anymore if you use custom code like that.

I agree that it makes no sense that those messages show by default. It should be an option at best. It's crazy that the site still hasn't done anything about that. I can't imagine that it would be very hard to simply remove the messages (especially since this simple code above does it).

I appreciate the help although would like to still have the ability to see and create bug reports as I do a lot of testing of alpha games.
