Site Settings Options


1. Advanced Features

Advanced Features provide greater visibility and control on the Transaction Details page:

  • Auto Expand Instruction Details and Program Logs: Automatically expand all instruction details and program logs when opening a Transaction Details page.

  • Multi-Color Address Highlighting: Highlight multiple addresses in different colors when viewing a transaction. This is useful for analyzing complex transaction logs and visually separating key addresses.

2. Instruction Tree Mode

Instruction Tree Mode changes the instruction details layout from a linear list to a hierarchical tree structure. This makes it easier to understand execution flows, parent-child relationships between instructions, and nested program calls within complex transactions.

3. Auto Refresh in NFT/DeFi Activity

Auto Refresh automatically updates NFT and DeFi activity pages without requiring a manual page reload. This is useful for monitoring active wallets, marketplaces, or protocols where new activity occurs frequently.

4. Hide Low-Value Transfers

When enabled, this setting hides token transfers with little or no value across all transfer tables. This reduces visual noise and keeps the tables focused on transfers involving meaningful value movement.

Example of low-value token transfers.
When toggle the feature on, low-value token transfers as highlighted will be hidden.

5. Hide Spam Tokens

Hide Spam Tokens automatically filters out transfers involving tokens identified by the Solscan team as spam, scams, or suspicious assets. Enabling this setting removes irrelevant or potentially misleading token activity from the displayed data.

6. Hide Failed Transactions

Hide Failed Transactions automatically filters out unsuccessful transactions from all Transactions tables. This makes it easier to review completed activity without failed transactions adding unnecessary noise.

Example of failed transactions in the table.
When toggle the feature on, failed transaction as highlighted will be hidden.

7. Show Token Account Transactions

When enabled, this setting displays transactions involving token accounts in activity tables. This provides a more complete view of activity connected to an account, including transactions performed through its associated token accounts.

8. Address Highlight

Address Highlight automatically highlights every occurrence of an address when you hover over it. This makes it easier to see where a specific address appears on a page, especially in tables or transaction details involving multiple participants.

9. Address Display

Address Display controls how addresses are shown across Solscan. By default, addresses display the first and last 10 characters, with the middle section truncated.

You can also switch to back truncation, which displays the beginning of the address and truncates the remaining characters. This makes it easier to locate a specific address using CTRL+F.

10. Date & Time Format

You can configure how block and transaction timestamps are displayed across Solscan by switching between UTC and your local time zone.
