Removing CProd Modules
From No LJ Ads Wiki
Here's a guide to remove the CProd boxes that pop up while you're doing things on the LiveJournal website. The http://www.livejournal.com/didyouknow/ page with all of the notifications will still function just fine, in case you're afraid of missing information. We also have a guide about Removing CProds from the NavStrip, if you like the Navigation Strip but don't want it to nag you. (We also have a guide about Removing the NavStrip, if that's how you'd rather get rid of them.)

[edit] CSS for User Stylesheets
[edit] Premade Downloadable CSS Files
You can save these to where you need and rename them to the proper filename, or add their contents to your existing user stylesheet. Use the instructions given on the User Stylesheets page.
[edit] Strategies for Mozilla Firefox
[edit] CSS for userContent.css
Use the instructions on the User Stylesheets page to put this CSS in your userContent.css:
/* Removes CProds from pages. */
@-moz-document domain("livejournal.com") {
#CProd_box
{
display: none !important;
}
}
[edit] CSS for the Stylish Extension
We have a one-click installable version here, or you can use this CSS in a new style:
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);
@-moz-document domain("livejournal.com") {
#CProd_box
{
display: none !important;
}
}
[edit] Greasemonkey Script
Install this script. It will add the CSS when the page loads. Using Stylish is probably a better solution.
[edit] CSS for Other Browsers
Use the instructions on the User Stylesheets page to put this CSS in your user stylesheet:
/* Removes CProds from pages. */
#CProd_box
{
display: none !important;
}
[edit] Testing
You can test the efficiency of this guide by going to your Profile page and clicking on 'Save Changes'. There is a prodding module on the right side of the confirmation page. If this works, you shouldn't see it.
[edit] Troubleshooting
- Make sure your cache has been cleared.
- All users, try to use our .css files instead of making yours.
- Firefox users, try to use alternative methods.
- Stylish users, try to use our file instead of making yours.
