If I have installed RCLootCouncil doesnt show me the chat. :C
with new update I cant see my own writing on the chat.
Every time I sent a whisper, I get this error. I use WiM and Prat so I'm not sure which addon is at fault:
In Tab Management, I have "Automatically group whispers." checked, "Automatically group chat windows." checked, and "Group with whisper windows." checked. Occasionally, even with these settings, some whispers (not all) will end up in their own window. I'm using the latest version according to Twitch client.
In reply to SimGuruTrev:
What I've noticed: chat windows (say/guild/raid) are added to whisper group , if an whisper window was already open, but not the other way aroud. If we have a chat window open (say/guild/raid) a new whisper will create a new group.
An fix I found is to change line 128 in Modules\TabManagement.lua to:
Back in Retail, I use to be able to right click the wim icon to bring up a link to all my whispers history.
Now in the Classic version I can not find any way to do that.
In reply to WoWEye:
If you right click the minimap icon, the menu pops up and you can click the 4. option called History Viewer.
Another option is to use the slash command /wim history .
In reply to humfras:
the button appears to be clicking, but nothing happens, no options, no nothing.
In reply to WoWEye:
Try Shift+Right-Click, seems like if I have the <Right-Click> to show undread messages option enabled, I have to Shift+Right-Click the minimap icon to get the menu up.

Oh yes, that works, Thank You

Could we get support for the raid marks?
{skull}, {cross}, {square}, {moon}, {triangle}, {diamond}, {circle}, {star}

Those are the localized strings.
The correct way to use those across all languages is {rt#}

In reply to humfras:
Just tried that method. Still doesn't show the icons within the WIM whisper window.
Currently on WIM-3.8.2-classic.
Appologies if I forgot to mention I was on the Classic version.
In reply to Jm_nero:
In WIM, those raid icons are classified as emoticons.
Therefor, to be able to see them, you need to have Emoticons/Smileys enabled under
General > Message Formatting > Display Emoticons
In reply to humfras:
I tested this on classic. {skull}, etc all work in WIM with emoticons enabled.
I only use the Twitch app to update my addons and ever since 10/9, the classic version appears as a valid update for me in retail. So even though I currently have file 3.8.2 installed in retail, it shows 3.8.2-classic as a valid retail upgrade. I messaged Twitch support about it and they sent me this:
Some Addon Authors have indicated that their Addons are compatible with both WoW Classic and Retail (even if they may not be), so the Desktop App will update them accordingly.
We encourage you to reach out to the Addon Author via their CurseForge page and let them know of the situation so that they may update their project to reflect the correct game version.
In reply to Torfi:
WIM's versioning is done the way Twitch wants it...
Due to packaging order, the most current version of WIM will be the classic version but normally the Client will display the correct version (does so for me atleast).
Keep in mind that the Client was a bit buggy some weeks ago and distributed the wrong versions (depending on which version of WoW is/was installed).
You may have installed a classic-toc version of WIM by accident.
Which is no problem because both versions are identical, only the toc-version is set to the correct client version.
You may want to update manually once and see if the Twitch Client recognizes it correctly.
For some reason all my messages are not tabbed in classic, is there a way to force all whispers into a tabbed window?
In reply to GlorionTanks:
Check your settings. Tabs are disabled by default i believe.
