Just tested and seems to work, for some reason it looks like curse isnt showing the latest code changes here

This didn't work for me
In reply to zulunia:
This worked for me but it's definitely not perfect, the separate tab still comes up in my chatbox even with no messages in it. Still, I'll take it for the time being. Thanks!

I'm curious if this addon is going to be updated for Shadowlands. I miss this addon. The prepatch broke it. :(
It doesn't seem to be saving whisper history on newly connected realms. EG: If I'm on my Dath'remar characters it's not saving whispers from Aman'Thul, and if I'm on my Frostmourne characters it's not saving whispers from Jubei'thos. Unless I'm missing a setting somewhere
Is there a way that I can shift-click items to preview them in WIM like you can in normal wow messages or chat? It currently doesnt work for me.
Thanks!
Hi, i dont see my whisp chat log anymore in the WIM log section. Is there an issue?
Is there a way to setup WIM so that if someone messages the Community Channel that I have setup (channel 4) that it will popup like it does for Guild, Instance and Whispers? I thought you could do it from the "Custom Chat" window in settings but there is only channel 0 listed and I have no way to add or modify the section. Thanks for the help!
When sending a large message that is broken into multiple pieces they are delivered out of order. For example if I write:
What it will actually read like is this:
This error is seen both on my end as well as the recipient of the conversation.
The old "click to update" button was rendered useless since the /who api changes, but would it be possible to use that button to send a /who request? An addon can still do a /who request with a hardware event, such as a click. For those I've whispered, their name is usually already in the chat window so I can shift click that name, but others that whisper me, I have to manually type out a /who.
Hey, when WIM is enabled I dont see the DND/AFK Messages from people. Is there an option I dont see?
Hello!
i recently got into RP and most of them are through whispers since i'm not that good yet.
I was saving the complete history of those conversations, to look them up again and thinking about what to make better, that worked perfectly even with a really huge conversation. But now, a few days ago wim didn't record everything anymore, barely anything tbh.
I didn't mess with the addon options, so i'm kinda surprised at the sudden change :o
Anyone got any tips?
In reply to Forge_User_36465112:
The .lua file probably got too big. You can try backing up the .lua file and then delete old conversations. I think once the file gets below 2.5mb in size it should start saving again.
Hey there, I'm not sure what I did, but I got this error:
