Broker_Portals
Why would you have actionbars filled with portals, or open your spellbook everytime you cast a portal? Just right click on icon or minimap button and you can access all portals so comfortably.
It is designed as DataBroker plug-in, that lets you access all portal and teleport spells from one spot. Addon will be attached to minimap by default, but if you want to move/customize it, you will have to install additional addon like TitanPanel, HidingBar, or Bazooka and there are many more.
Features:
- All mage portals, hearthstone and teleporting items available from simple dropdown menu
- Minimap button, so you don't have to install any additional addon
- Hearthstone location and cooldown in tooltip
- Reagent count in tooltip (for Cataclusm Classic)
- If hearthstone is on cooldown, Scroll of Recall will be used instead if possible
- Can announce, that you're casting a portal
Localization:
If you'd like to add/update localizations, do so here. Then leave a comment on WowAce or on Curse as I'm checking those more often than localization app itself, and I'll repack it.
Bugs / Suggestions:
If you have encountered any problem, or if you think theres something missing. Feel free to post a ticket here.
FAQ:
- I managed to hide my minimap icon, how do I turn it on again?
- Just simply type "/portals".
- Does it support teleportation items like engineering teleports or Kirin Tor rings?
- Yes.

Enable adding custom items/spells
In reply to artscout375:
Since last version (1.11.7 - 1.11.6 was working almost fine for me), alternate earthstones version don't show anymore.
feature request : could you consider an option to replace alternate earthstone by using a random one ?
In reply to Araldwenn:
Alternate hearstones display is customized now, you can enable it in options menu.
In reply to artscout375:
Well, tried to fully reinstall Broker_portals, still the same. 1.11.7 doesn't show my alternate heartstones, wheter the menu item is checked or not.
Edit : looked at portals.lua, realized lots of toys/rings/etc are missing in ver. 1.11.7
And in fact, reinstalled 1.11.6 and saw that alternate hearstones already existed in 1.11.6. Maybe there was an error when pushing the new version ?
In reply to Araldwenn:
Will look into that.
In reply to Araldwenn:
Darn it was git branch mixup with WotLK classic version. Fixed that
In reply to Araldwenn:
About that request - sounds interesting but what exactly you propose? Meaning:
1. When "Show Heartstone analogues" enabled it shows all HS-like items that usualy shares cooldown with HS.
2. Do you propose additional option exclusive with "Show Heartstone analogues" that will not show analogues anymore but will show some random HS item instead?
In reply to artscout375:
In fact, what I propose is a line which would replace (or be in addition to) the list of analogue hearstones, and when you click it, it would randomly pick an hearstone analogue and use it. The surprise pleasure in fact ;)
In reply to Araldwenn:
Yep, I will do that.
Love this addon and thank you for maintaining it!
Would it be possible to add an option to filter out the hearthstone toys?...it's starting to really clutter up the view.
In reply to Mythris:
I will look into it next week, got a little busy with another addon preparation for Wotlk Classic.
In reply to Mythris:
I did that, please test it and tell me if it is acceptable for you. It's under options "Show Heartstone analogues"
In reply to artscout375:
I love it! Much more clean but still gives an option to show them if you want to. Great solution and thank you for putting it in so quickly!
ok now setup a new project and will continue to maintain unless there is problem with that

Use Broker_Portals also in 9.05.
So that Broker-Potals is not displayed as out of date in Broker_Portals .toc the first line of:
## Interface: 80300
change to:
## Interface: 90005
Then the add-on will no longer be shown as obsolete in the add-on list.
Has been tested

Broker_Portals still works for me in Wow version 9.0.2. Only thing I see out of place is it has no background when I use it from Titan Panel. Is there still a way for this to be updated or is this fine addon actually dying? I use it on all my toons and it's really handy.
