The HC ping code should be hidden from the dashboard by default as its sort of like a password.

I'd like to understand your use case. What users can access the dashboard? In what specific scenarios hiding it by default (but still have it accessible somehow) would be better than status quo?

I am the sole user, but I think that the code is not very useful after I've incorporated them into my workflow.

Thanks, I see. For you, always showing the code in the dashboard is just not an efficient use of the screen space, correct?

You ca check out how the dashboard would feel without ping URLs displayed: if you resize the browser window to be narrower, at around 970 or so width, the Ping URL column will disappear.

I think hiding it by default would not be a wise idea. There are many different usage patterns; as an anecdote I personally copy ping URLs from the dashboard quite frequently.

Yep.

I feel as though this was changed recently, because my browser size remains unchanged with a 1036x648 viewport. Earlier the code would get hidden, but now the large code width truncates names into a second line.

@agneevX do you still see the code wrapping in two lines? Can you share a screenshot?

It no longer does that.
