Website Toolkit: Focus Mode

Hide notifications, adverts, upsells and other distractions on websites and admin portals. Focus on your work, not the noise.

Focus Mode browser extension was previously called Nag Me Not

Silence the noise

The pages / portals you work with every day are full of things that aren't the work. Focus Mode hides them with CSS, only on the sites you nominate.

Allowed Domains Only

Focus Mode is scoped to your allowed domains list. On any page not matching that list, the extension does nothing at all—no interference, no UI.

Four Blocking Modes

Choose between Off, Normal, Extreme, or Custom modes. From conservative built-in rules to 'hide everything' extreme mode.

Hiding, Not Deleting

Elements are hidden via CSS, never removed from the DOM. Switch to Off and everything is restored instantly without a page reload.

Intelligent Picking

The Advanced Pick tool generates stable selectors based on IDs and attributes, avoiding fragile framework-generated classes.

Mutation Observer

Catches notices injected late by scripts or single-page-app navigations. If it appears later, Focus Mode catches it.

Bulk Import/Export

Share selector lists with your team via CSV. Everyone gets the same clean portal without rediscovering the same selectors.

Four Blocking Modes

Off

Nothing is hidden. Everything is restored.

Normal

Common admin notices and promo banners. Conservative by design.

Extreme

Upsells, cookie bars, newsletter popups, and update badges.

Custom

Only your own selectors. No built-in rules at all.

Professional focus for professional portals

Fewer interruptions and less context-switching

No repeated dismissals of sticky banners

Cleaner screenshots for documentation and demos

Reduced cognitive load for sensitive users

WordPress Maintenance

Clear the wall of update nags, review requests, and upgrade banners standing between you and your settings.

Client Walkthroughs

Take screenshots or record demos without vendor advertising in the frame. Professional, clean, and local to your browser.

SaaS Dashboards

Hide feature announcement bars, trial countdowns, and chat widgets that rarely have a permanent dismiss option.

Adding your own selectors

The built-in rules cover common patterns. Everything else is a right-click away.

A

Pick Element

The cursor becomes a picker. Hover to highlight, click to hide. The engine scores candidates for stability to ensure your rule doesn't rot.

B

Advanced Pick

Shows all candidate selectors, their match count, and stability warnings. Preview live on the page before you commit.

C

Right-Click Menu

The fastest route. Right-click any element and select “Hide this element”. Gone in an instant without losing your scroll position.

D

Options Page

Type CSS selectors directly for precision work. Includes bulk CSV import/export for teams and multiple machines.
