Hello, I was wondering if having different configuration profiles for WIM is possible or if the configuration can only be shared across all accounts?

Hi , since the last 2-3 days i have problems with the addon's history, trying to rewiev an conversation i found out that it only reflects my texts and it doesn't appear the text of the other users i was talking to. as an example:

[03/07/2011] / 20:24 [Net]: tsss, .... / 20:24 [Net]: gratz:) / 20:24 [Net]: .....? / 20:25 [Net]: ahmm, .... / 20:27 [Net]: eno, ....

I tryed reinstalling wim, got up to date prat and other addons sugested , but the problem keeps persisting.

as a temp fix for the OptionsTookKit.lua error, I remarked out the lines 372-374 which has appears to stop the error. I not being one who knows anything about LUA(I program in VB.net), at least not getting the error, so I can use WIM again.

The controls on the window are a little bunched, but no errors

I'm glad I finally found someone else that is having that problem, too bad you don't know how to fix it though. My Wow crashed on me the other day, and when I logged back in I lost all my WIM settings. I had system messages working again that whole day. But after I logged out and back in, they stopped again.

Any chance we can get a fix for the invite button on WIM chat windows when talking to RealID friends.

"Cannot find player 'John Doe'"

I have this too, I have to uncheck and re-check system messages for my non-WIM chat window and then they appear for a while... until I use WIM for something. Not sure what WIM is doing, but something it does makes it suppress system messages to the normal chat window.

I have a problem where WIM is making it so I no longer get the yellow system messages. I don't get a notification when friends log on or off, when I bid on an auction, and various other messages. I had no problem with it before the latest version of WIM, and reinstalling it completely didn't fix it, only disabling WIM does.

Hello,

everytime I try to get into the WIM Options I got the following error message:

WIM-3.4.2\Sources\Options\OptionsTookKit.lua:373: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value <in C code>: in function `Show' WIM-3.4.2\Sources\Options\Options.lua:325: in function `?' WIM-3.4.2\Sources\SlashHandler.lua:35: in function `?' Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:4221: in function <Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:4169>: <in C code>: in function `ChatEdit_ParseText' Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:3832: in function <Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:3831>: <in C code>: in function `ChatEdit_SendText' Interface\FrameXML\ChatFrame.lua:3870: in function `ChatEdit_OnEnterPressed': <string>:"*:OnEnterPressed":1: in function <[string "*:OnEnterPressed"]:1>

I have WIM 3.5.4 installed (through the Curse Client). A few minutes ago I deleted every WIM-folder within Interface and WTF and installed it anew - same result. Any ideas what it might be? :-)

Can we have release notes for the new version you make? Like what does it fix... etc.

Thank you for such a wonderful AddOn that has made people's world (of warcraft) so much better! This is perfect for IM junkies like me, and I'm sure many of us can't live without this now. :)

My only suggestion from years of use would be an option to change the "minimize" button to a close button permanently without having to hold shift+click. That, and maybe some cool themes/layouts. but I'm asking too much. perfect addon as is :)

Wondering if you have any update for the lag issue?

Problem:

I have the same issue with the latest version.

I was running an older version with no probs, updated WIM (only mod I updated) and dropped to 10 FPS... HORRIBLE fps... it's not even a playable 10 frames.

I disable WIM and jumped back up to 80+ fps with max settings on a Core i7, 5870HD graphics card with 10gigs of memory.

WIM is killing my FPS. Not sure why.

There is no lag issue with WIM itself. You have some kind of other problem. With what I don't know.

Hey I was just wondering if there was a sort of "AFK" mode or something like that in WIM? If not, I would like to enter it as a feature suggestion so that when you enable it by check box or command, it will send an automatic reply to anyone that whispers you that you are unavailable or away doing something. The ability to customize the auto-response would be awesome too. Cheers.
