Custom Dashboard: All Stats & Scrolling

Last week we made some changes to the custom dashboard on the player pages, which allow you to choose exactly which stats you would like displayed in the order of your choosing.

The first update is that all the stats on the site are now available to you. For a long while there was only a subset of all our stats, but this is no longer the case.

The second change we made is that the custom dashboard now scrolls within the page so it doesn’t bleed over the boundaries of the site indefinitely. There are a non-trivial number of custom dashboards that basically include all the stats on the entire site, which makes for an extremely wide custom dashboard.

As I’ve monitored feedback on the change, some people like the scrolling, but others are very opposed to it. So, we’re going to have a poll to decide how to set the default behavior. Unless the results are overwhelmingly in favor of one particular choice, we will have an option in the custom dashboard to toggle the scrolling on/off.

I definitely think there should be an option to toggle. I can see why some people might like either, so let’s give everyone the choice!
