How to avoid the roll description in chat?

Hi everyone. Is there a way to hide the roll description in chat? I usually use rollabletables for the rolls and I would like to see in the chat only the result of the dice and the total sum, not the part in red. Thank you so much for the help of this fantastic community.

If you're using the /r roll syntax, no I don't think you can. You could use a CSS editor like Stylus to hide it, but that would only affect your screen, not anyone else's. Using [[ inline rolls ]] will also get rid of it, but I'm assuming you want the pictures showing up in chat. I can't really think of anything else that doesn't involve API or a custom sheet.
Sorry, I see that Keith Curtis has written because before entering the post it says that there are 3 responses and the last one is from him but I do not see any message from him. Do you?

No, he might have deleted his post. Or he might have reported the spambot above, and that might be enough for a "last post" flag.

I did indeed delete my post once I realized I was responding to a particularly apt spambot.

They're getting cleverer. Buy a cheap baja hoodie! I did indeed delete my post once I realized I was responding to a particularly apt spambot.

I see what you did there.
OK. Thank you. So the only way to do what I'm looking for is with Stylish? Yes Oosh,  I want the pictures showing up in chat.

Yeah, as far as I know the options are - Stylus (free) - will only work for your browser. If you want your players to see the same thing they will have to install the extension themselves and copy your CSS rules - API (requires Pro subscription) - will stop those messages getting to the chat log (not 100% sure this can be done, but I'm assuming it can) CSS is pretty easy to pick up - you don't really need to know HTML at all since you're just editing what's already there. I haven't tested this much, but it should be pretty much what you need: Only the 3 lines of code in the red box are relevant, the rest is random, unrelated stuff. There might potentially be other "formula" classes that need an exception added, but the one included in here seems to stop the images and die icons from being hidden, and doesn't do anything bad to inline rolls that I can see. You can keep going and re-flavour the roll message if you like, messing with colours, making elements bigger, adding borders or background images - just remember your players won't see any of the changes unless they use Stylus or a similar extension and add the CSS styles you create: This is just 2 minutes of messing around: There's plenty of HTML/CSS wizards around in the Stylening thread and the Character Sheets section, so if you need a hand with something, someone is sure to be able to help.
