Addon to remove addon-spam in chat

I did a look in Minion as well as a search of this forum to see if I could find evidence of an addon that simply prevents or clears out all the addon spam filling up the chat window upon login or /reloadui. Does anyone know of such an addon? I use SuppressErrorMessage but that is just for errors.
You wouldn't worry so much about what other people thought about you, if you knew how little they did. - ??

    think you just need to go over your addon settings and also check if some addons modify the same thing, I have a couple of addon collusions myself, but tinkering with individual settings always seems to work

    You can change your chat tab setting to redirect System messages to a secondary tab, and untick them from your main/default chat tab...

    Besides that, some addons let you config to which chat tab you want them to send all the spam, not many though.

    Best solution:
    Find out which addon posts to chat upon login/reloadui.
    Contact the authors at www.esoui.com and tell them to please remove these annoying login messages (if they are not needed like showing you the time left until the stable can be used to skill your hors or research finishes -> These information can be normally accessed and changed at the addon settings page ingame).

    Here us what you do. Use at least two tabs or channels. Me, I use 5.

    Make the first chat tab and call it Spam. Set it so it gets Says and Tells. Some addons look for the chat tab called Spam, some will use a chat tab with a name you specify, so why not use Spam.

    Most addons if they do not have a way to designate a chat tab, use the first one. So I only use the 2nd through 5th tabs for my chatting.

    Note, there are addons that will clone your chat tabs across characters, this really helps here.

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    I would agree with this. Personally, I like to see that everything I have is enabled and working, so I always have these messages turned on, but I certainly understand how annoying that could be. If an add-on doesn't have an option to turn the initialisation messages off, contact the author and ask them to add one.

    Hi,
    I would like some help please. On Friday, I installed the Dolgubon's KR Patch for Dolgubon's Lazy Writ Crafter.
    I did this in error. I have since un-installed the Saved Variables and all Dolgubon's add-ons. I also screwed up the mini-map and am re-installing add-ons.
    I have re-installed Destinations and I am getting a message that the Korean; "Destinations is not properly localized for kr.
    English terms will be used will be used and not all POIs will be properly classified." I also am was getting a message with Lazy Writ Crafter and couldn't engage with crafting station.
    How can I fix this so I can continue being spoiled?
    And many thanks to all who create & provide the add-ons.
    Robbie

    Use the following chat command ingame and press the RETURN key afterwards.
    The game UI reloads then and everything should be English afterwards again.
    /script SetCVar("language.2", "en")
    

    The following languages can be used in standard ESO as 2nd parameter for this function:
    en English
    de German
    fr French

    all other language constants are non-standard ESO and maybe patched in by custom languages, like kr, ru, es, pt, br, pl, it, ...
