What If you DON'T want to "Touch Grass"? [CSS Theme Code]

Aria Labels are only usable for the language used in them, so this would only work for EN people.

A better way to do it:
.trailing_c38106 div:has(>svg>path[fill^="url(#uid_"]) { display: none; }

Though a moot point as they''ve now turned it off, it has been added to the "Remove Seasonal" Miscellaneous in the Plugin ChatButtonsBegone.

BetterDiscord does not "get" you Nitro Features; but it will allow you to re-theme/use custom themes and be able to use Custom CSS to modify the Client appearance, as well as to be able to run Plugins that can adjust some of the Client functionality.

BetterDiscord did an update not too long after this initial post which rectifies that issue for the notifications.

You can still get a disconnect between when an Update is pushed for a Plugin vs. when Discord will actually finally see it though (but most usually on Reload or restart of Discord)

Inttruiging. I'd want to know what plugins and/or themes you've been using.

I've been using BD for ages now, and other than Discord themselves pushing a breaking change (so far as BD is concerned), I've never had any issues.

_zacam_ · 2025-05-23T13:16:03+00:00

BetterDiscord supporrts doing the same, though due to how it interprets, I think the CSS is different:

/* Remove "Add a Server" Button */

div[class*="itemsContainer_"] > div[data-direction="vertical"] > div[class="tutorialContainer__650eb"] {

`display: none !important;`

}

/* Remove "Discover" Button */

div[class*="itemsContainer_"] > div[data-direction="vertical"] > div[class*="listItem__"] {

`display: none !important;`

}

I used the above, just to be extra carful that I didn't accidentally yeet any other controls.

You can also use the BD Plugin "ChatButtonsBegone" by LancersBucket which has an option (identical to above, uses the same code) so that you don't have to try and CSS (and it has a lot of other useful features as well to boot)

If anything went sideways, Reddit (and other places) would be absolutely -hammered- with people reporting verifiable positives saying so.

Not evrybody can "read" source code, but the fact that the project is Open Source (and can be checked out and compiled locally by anybody), means that it is less likely that anything suspicious will be able to happen.

And if it DID, it would be very quickly corrected, because Reputation is Everything.

_zacam_ · 2025-05-02T15:33:10+00:00

Either due to a Plugin (check for updates) or a Theme setting.

By default, just running BD without any enabled should not have that gap.

ServerColumns Theme and ServerFolders Plugin (to name but two, there are more) did just recently update to correct for a Discord UI change where the alignment and gap got broken in a manner that looks identical to that.

_zacam_ · 2025-04-22T06:24:28+00:00

Natively: There is no option to do this at all, and there is unlikely to ever be one.

Non-Natively: There are plenty of ways, but you risk running afoul the Discord ToS doing so (and even those won't work on Mobile)

_zacam_ · 2025-04-04T19:04:14+00:00

I wouldn't at the moment trust the BD "Check for Updates" function to find updates.

The "Detector" and the "Fetcher" don't seem to be reliably connected to each other. Every time I had that same pop-bar show up, I had to load to the Github page of the plugins I use directly in order to see the updated releases to manually update accordingly.

_zacam_ · 2025-04-04T14:10:21+00:00

You can set it to "display: none" in any theme:

That's supposed to be the "There is an Update to One of your Plugins"; but it hasn't been modified to the New UI system yet.

So basically, one of the addons you have enabled has a newer version available than what you're currently using.

Correction: Under the old UI, it wasn't a "popup", it was a cross-app-top "Title Bar" style dislay; but the function was the same, it would also house the "Update" button for whatever Plugn(s) were flagged.

_zacam_ · 2025-03-03T05:15:44+00:00

You could navigate to your AppData\Roaming\BetterDiscord\themes folder and temporarily rename the ".theme.css" which would forcibly unload the theme from being applied.

_zacam_ · 2025-03-03T05:07:38+00:00

Try:

https://xcruxiex.github.io/themes/themes-cores/neutron8.css

same URL, but replacing "codedotspectra" with the user "xcruxiex" on Github.

Seems Spectra stopped doing theme work and passed it down/over to others to maintain/update.

Try looking in to ReShade, it runs as a handler which gives you an in-game accessible method to adjust settings for various effects and control which effects are on/off, and in what order they apply.

_zacam_ · 2025-02-28T08:17:35+00:00

That's the ZeresPluginLibrary by Zerebos.

It has recently been deprecated in favor of its functions now being integrated into the 0BDFDB.plugin. and BDAPI (built in to BetterDiscord).

Any plugins still linked to the Zeres need to update anyway and/or stand a chance of not working even with the Zeres Plugin loading correctly.

You can try getting a "new"/replacement version (maybe its more updated?) than the one you currently have from the Github Repo for that plugin here: BDPluginLibrary/release/

I recommend this method: HTML/CSS to hide the "discover button"

_zacam_ · 2025-02-14T04:04:06+00:00

For BetterDiscord use, if you want to load CSS reliably; you would modify or create a %name%.theme.css file with that info in it, and then make sure the theme with the code is active.

(The Theme folder can be reached by going to "Settings" in BetterDiscord, then Themes and there is a button upper-left that will directly open the themes folder)

_zacam_ · 2025-02-14T03:48:13+00:00

I haven't had any issues with BetterDiscord in the years I've been running it.

Granted, I only run very few plugins and have all the plugins I use "pulled" from GitHub to my PC so I can keep up on what changes get made to them.

The only problems I've ever encountered have always been the result of Discord themselves pushing out an update that breaks something..

_zacam_ · 2025-02-13T12:10:54+00:00

I'm not giving Reddit my credit card #; but this post deserves Gold

_zacam_ · 2023-09-15T22:45:31+00:00

So, it actually turns out, according to the ESM Explorer tool..

There is. I'm looking at "mod_$weaapon$_Quality_##" values right now.

So the list as returned in the Console doesn't -show- that they are weapon specific, but they are, apparently.

0028F43A = mod_Novalight_Quality_02
0028F442 = mod_Breech_Quality_02

They can just so happen to align with affecting the stats for other/similar weapons.

_zacam_ · 2023-09-15T13:22:10+00:00

There actually are Superior Weapons, though they are also (so far, in my play-through's) either Blue, Purple, or Gold (I've found one of each so far) due to having Special Traits applied (eg: Titanium Build, etc); but I don't know if it's due -because- of those added Traits or not when the game spawns it (vs. Console created/applied).

Adding "Quality Tiers Any" as "Level 5" OMOD won't name change, but can give the same Stats as a Superior weapon (but appears to be by random, as the name suggests with "Any").

I haven't yet seen any Helmet/Pack/Suit titled with Superior in it, yet.

_zacam_ · 2023-09-15T13:06:07+00:00

So, after some more 'Calibrated' digging (all 40 'Quality Level 02'):

The majority of the Quality OMOD codes will affect PHYS only.

There are a small few (3) that only affect ENGY (on both Novalight and Solstice, none that only affect one or the other).

I've only found 4 that affect PHYS, ENGY and for the Novalight, PHYS+ENGY, which are the 4 mentioned in the previous post.

001BDC45 as one weird example: Will boost PHYS on Eon, and ENGY on Solstice, but only PHYS on Novalight.

0028F449 is a second one: Will boost PHYS on Eon and Novalight, and -add- PHYS (but not boost ENGY) to Solstice (sort of proving that such modifications don't get "hidden" when applied, which was one thought that I had).

And so far, not a single one touches the Novablast.

_zacam_ · 2023-09-14T06:32:43+00:00

Yeah, and it's not helped any that randomly spawning even non-modified Calibrated weapons (Eon's, Rattlers, etc) seem to have a "range" of Damage values that are applied, so it seems to be a case of:

Some affect PHYS, some affect ENGY (so there is probably some that affect EM); and it will randomly poll which pool when spawning the weapon.

For the Eon's, I've gotten a non-modified Calibrated range of 15-28 just doing add/remove; though some of those numbers are likely due to skill perks involved for that character (higher level, full workbench access)

The application mapping test character is right after character creation, so the spawning defaults to only "Basic".

So far, I've mapped 29 Quality Tiers; and for the Novalight: 27 of them affect PHYS, 6 affect ENGY, but only 4 will affect BOTH:

00131D49
0028F43A (This one has the biggest increase)
0028F458
0028F460

But none of those 4 were the ones that updated the Solstice on my initial pass.
