When you purchase a license for ExpressionEngine it is stored in your own personal downloads section of the ExpressionEngine website. Alongside each product is a notes field where you can add notes. I use this field to remember the client/website where the license is in use. Unfortunately though, this notes field is hidden by default; you have to click a link to show each notes field individually which can be very frustrating. Here I detail how you can get around this using an extension for Chrome and a simple user stylesheet.
Please see the comments below where Ryan Masuga mentions how to accomplish the same thing in Safari.
Requirements
You have to be running Google Chrome (although this probably works with greasemonkey, and stylish on Firefox as well)
You have to have purchased an ExpressionEngine license!!
Method
- If you don’t already have the Stylebot plug-in installed, install it (Note: this probably works with the Greasemonkey or Stylish extensions on Firefox as well).
- Go to the ExpressionEngine downloads area and log in if you need to.
- Open up Stylebot by clicking on the little CSS icon in the address bar of Chrome.
- Click on the ‘Edit CSS’ button at the bottom of the window that pops up.
- Paste in the following code – you only really need the first bit, but I was trying to save vertical space by rearranging things slightly):
div.tableNewTwo * {
display: block;
}
div.tableNewTwo form textarea {
height: 15px;
width: 400px;
}
div.tableNewTwo div.toppad input[type=“submit”] {
position: absolute;
left: 450px;
margin-top: -25px;
}
- Click the ‘Save’ button.
- Click the ‘X’ icon in the top-right of Stylebot to close the Stylebot window.
- Enjoy!
Update: Please let me know if you you work out what you need to be able to do this in Safari, Firefox, et al, and I’ll add it to here, or link to your blog post.

I got this to work in Safari by downloading the "User CSS" extension (http://code.grid.in.th/).
I set the domain to "https://secure.expressionengine.com/*" and I had to add "!important" to the first rule and the width in the second rule.
