We're on the same page. When you send a message that is too long it sends it in parts. When you send a slash command it gets handled differently because you can't simply split it and send in chunks because after the inital is processed, the following would get sent as a say message. So each part would have to be prefixed with /em which would yield unwanted results also... because remember each emote is prefixed with your name.
/em says this is a really... really long message which will
/em produce an odd result if a long message is split.
/em recommends not sending REALLY long emotes :)
In reply to RealPazza:
Here's hoping it's a trivial adjustment then! And I figured that's what was needed (the /em being added in front of each), I just also figured it was parsed ahead of time and was a bit -- I suppose -- surprised that it didn't even convert the rest of it to /say!
I really do appreciate your replies. Thank you.
In reply to psylence84:
On more think you aren't seeing... :-). look at my previous comment and replace /em with your name. that is how it will read. This is what i meant by producing an odd result. :-)

It changes the context of everything. I don't think emotes translate the same a message does.
In reply to RealPazza:
True, but it's a common thing for RPers. They'll splice it together using a symbol to show there's a continuation or just leave it as a spot that's not an obvious stop.
So, for instance..
Psylence84 waves at so and so, continuing with long emote ...
Pslyence84 ... until the end of the pose.
Or just:
Psylence84 makes wild gestures at the surrounding
Psylence84 areas until the end of their pose.
It's not that I disagree with you, mind, it's 'odd' but it's a commonplace way around the limit to the length. It's the same in pages or party chat as well.

noted
Client: WoW Classic
Problem: When using together with TwitchEmotes v2, WIM only displays the path to the emote image file, instead of the emote itself.
looking to filter out askprice (Auctioneer) queries - so if someone whispers me ?[ITEM] i do not get a popup.
I have looked, but either not using the right keywords or just not out there yet. Solution?
note: this is in wow classic
In reply to OrnoJin:
Give this a try. I admit i had a difficult time myself.
Can u fix pls problem with minimap button
my setting of this addon do not allow it to show new windows when i received messages, i watching it at standard way, but it nice to look at windowed mod when i want to check or do not miss some conversations
if someone whispered to me, i replay as usual way from R button and use general chat tab
when i receive the message, minimap button is highlighting
but wen i answered on message it still blinking, but it shouldn't - because i already read the message and my answer - is greatest evidence of it
can u fix it pls?
In reply to fantara1:
OK i think i understand. You're not actually viewing the message in the window, you are just replying to it using the regular chat chat. I will take a look and put out a fix tomorrow.
In reply to RealPazza:
yeah, you right
i will waiting for it ^^
tyvm!
In reply to RealPazza:
TYVM! it works well!
Latest update broke "r" command interaction.
In reply to IcerusKairos:
Please provide more details, especially which wow client and AddOn version you are using.
And any LUA errors.
The reply hotkey is working fine for me.
In reply to humfras:
Retail Wow version: 8.2.0 (31478) (Release x64)
No LUA errors...have gone back to previous 2 releases and problem still exists. Maybe it's something on my end if it's working on yours.
When trying to whisper, I have to initialize the command twice for it to correctly place the name in the chat bar for whisper. When replying with "r" I interact with wow main chat bar for whisper but not the WIM box.
This is on a character with NO OTHER ADDONS active. Just WIM.
*Edit: Slash Command option was disabled. Unsure how that occurred. In 10 years I've never touched the option settings.
Great addon, but i have a problem when i click on the name of for example in global channel no longuer shows me the lv and class of the player, a week a few days have passed but no update fix it.
In reply to Sackramento:
Have to assume you are referring to Classic. Blizzard removed the ability for an addon to do a who request. Who lookups are now defunct in WIM when run in classic. We try to gather the information available via other means when possible. For example, WIM will grab the user's class when the person messages (level is not available here). It will also provide you the users data if they are in your party/raid, friends list or guild.
In reply to RealPazza:
This is true, however for the 'Classic' version something needs to be done, because the moment I shift click someone's name in their (actual game) chat, the addon spews an error and then if you shift-click again in the bliz chat it stops working entirely. Likewise, after that happens, typing /who in the actual game's chat window results in a yellow msg that the command is being queued. Only reloading the ui resolves this.

+1 same thing for me! Was it another addon or is it a change of wim?
