Is there a way to filter out certain error messages that don't effect the game in any way but cause popups in rapid succession? It usually is in the family of "windowclass" errors.

[ERROR] window: Control (contentanchor) anchoring to an undefined control (title) in windowclass (EXT NAME)

Yes, this error is caused by extensions on the character sheet, but I was specifically asking about a way to filter out the actual error popups on both client and GM end.

The real solution is to disable the offending extension, report the error to the extension developer, and wait for them to fix the issue. The error occurs because the extension is anchoring controls to objects that have changed.

During a session, you can type "/console skip" to disable the auto-popup for the given session as a short-term solution. There are no plans to offer a permanent disable, as the errors are actually indicators that something is broken.

I agree, I have been trying to be active and vocal with the extension authors, as they all honestly have a good reputation for being responsive. That being said, your console command was exactly what I was looking for in terms of short-term solutions. Thank you so much.
