Broker_Portals

Table of Contents

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.

TODO:
Enable adding custom items/spells

Hello,

I wanted to suggest a few "design" changes. (Thanks for adding the last ones I thought shiould be implimented, the Heart Cooldown and the Rune counts.)

1- Seperate the Teleports/Portals Rune count on the tooltip so they each have one line.
2- Seperate the Teleports and the Portals on the selection list so they dont appear to "mash" together.

Just suggestions .. hope you consider them.

Thanks for a great addon.

I have several 80's and one class I haven't tried yet is a mage. Turns out I love them but was looking for something to support their portals (shes hit lv 20 in 3 days with casual play) this was suggested for me, but the lv 80 only stuff kinda is a turn off. Though it wont take me long to get her to 80 even with just casual play, more so with the shoulder gear she got that boosts exp gain by 10%, it's still a downer that this addon don't support those lower in level.

Oh well, time to find something that is more user friendly.

Because noone uses it on level 80. And if you're lower level then stop slacking :P In other words, it's a design choice.

Not everyone is level 80, as an addon Dev you should make this for EVERYONE not just players at high levels, Not everyone has 10 hours a day to level to 80 within a few weeks.

Wrong, as an addon Dev I can choose what functionality I want.
If you feel discriminated, feel free to extend this addon and release it with different name. I wont mind at all.

Don't you worry, Google was just used to check that Bereit would indeed be the correct translation for Ready as it was flagged for verification.

Mulciber: OK, I updated the addon for new translations. Btw. please do not touch other languages, that you cant test ingame! I really dont want any google translator stuff in the addon, so stick to your native language, or the language of your WoW client. Other than that, thanks for the french locale.

Checked German (thanks Google) and completed Spanish (thanks wowhead.com for item names) and a bit of Russian (wowhead again, for item names only as I've no clue to this language...).

The following line (## OptionalDeps:LibDBIcon-1.0) needs to be added to the toc file to support nolib version of Broker_Portals otherwise you will receive and error message, see http://wow.curseforge.com/projects/broker-portals/tickets/2-error-report/

Mulciber: Yes, it refers to harthstones status. I already updated the description in localization app. I'll repack the addon, when you have updated it. Thanks

Regarding translation, what does the "Ready" key refers to? Is it the Hearthstone's status? I may have to change the translation then...

BWMerlin: because it downloads only the addon, but without the required libraries (you could guess from "nolib" :P)

Cheers got it working now, thanks for the support. Out of curiosity why do you say the nolib version is bad?

BWMerlin: Hi, I just downloaded it from curse.com and it has all the libraries needed and works fine. Maybe you downloaded the nolib version? Which is bad ofcourse. If you're using curse client, then try to reinstall it and turn of alternate packaging if you use that.

CrazyBenny thanks for the update but I am still receiving the same error message. It's still looking for LibDBIcon which doesnt exist but a LibDataBrokerIcon does.
