WowAce

I just reported a person that whispered me and right after the report went out via the chatdropdownmenu, the whisper disappeared. I scrolled up abit but its like its deleted from the chat.

Is this a wow chat related "feature" or prat feature? I never encountered anything like this since the new chat dropdownmenu to report players is in the game. Normally I report players and can still read what they wrote.

This is a WoW related feature, anytime you report someone, they are temporarily ignored and the message will go away. They are un-ignored once you start a new session of WoW

Pet battle ui not working when prat is actived. My Pet battle chat log and combat log seperates from the main chat panel and my buttons for pet battle disappear entirely, forcing me to logout to exit combat.

Hi,

I noticed that the altNames function doesn't work anymore. After reading the changelog, they were intentionally disabled. Why? Will they come back?

still...

Same error with the new Version:

I use the german client and added the following to the line to quick-and-dirty correct this error (copyied some lines to identifify where I changed something, its line 420 and the following):

if va ~= "CHANNEL" then
chan = TEXT(_G["CHAT_MSG_"..va])
if (va == "INSTANCE_CHAT") then
chan = "Instanz";
end
else
chan = L["Channel"]
end

Chat history no longer working for Prat after 5.2?

Chat history still isn't working  :( 

It appears the AceTimer library needs updating.

As others have said, is there any way to change the Chat Frame Strata? I'm using ElvUI but dislike their chat mod and would like to use Prat 3.0 instead, but it keeps falling behind ElvUI's chat backgrounds and with ElvUI and Prat both not having strata options, I am losing my gourd.

i'm getting this too.  gonna revert to prior release for now i guess.

After update I get a:

Does this addon allow messaging to MSBT? Like.. when someone would say my chars name, it would broadcast to MSBT Messages. Currently Chatter isnt functioning in the new version with this, and im pretty anal about not having [ ]s around realid names, not just the char theyre on, thanks!

Hi..

Im using prat, and when i type the symbol "?" in the note, the addon "eats" the last word you typed, any idea to fix this? I have the same problem in my 2 notes and the PC does not happen...

THanks.

Hi,

Can I edit the chat tabs by font, color and background opacity?

Not the chat text just the tab names.

I've renamed the tabs but would like to edit the visual.

Thanks.

Been scrolling through the comments trying to find the answer to this with little or no success.   How often does the ChatLog feature of Prat save it's data to the text file?

Is it when the buffer is full, or is it at certain intervals?  Can't seem to find any information on it.

Thanks!

Addons are extremely limited in how they can actually write any data. They can only write to .lua files in your WTF folder and the formatting of that is controlled.

Prat's ChatLog module is simply something that auto enables the game's built in logging feature.

That being said, Prat has no control over when the chat is sent to the log. Afaik, the game writes to WoWChatLog.txt (and all other log files) periodically as it gets data to write (it may or may not buffer these writes), at character logout, and at game exit.

Can a sound module be added for /instance please?

So used to hearing pings etc for other channels, I miss LFR and /i

Hi, I am not sure what I am not putting on but in my chat box, I do not see the little name has set star on name, how do I fix this?
