This happened yesterday, sadly I don't recall what I was doing at this moment, not sure if in a BG or Dungeon

1x [ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED] AddOn 'WIM' tried to call the protected function 'MainMenuBar:SetPointBase()'.
[string "@!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua"]:480: in function <!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua:480>

I have also tried to do a /wim reset, which had no effect on fixing the error.

Also did a full delete of the addon (including the saved variables), and the error still shows up.

@AddOnSkins for whatever reason is opening Wim's options before its data has been loaded. This bug will have to be directed toward that addon author.

Tab Management is still broken. I'm still having to add " or getAvailableChatGroup()" before the end semicolon on line 128 of TabManagement.lua to get whispers and group chats to stack when I get a group chat first.

If that change is not there, new whisper chats will show up in their own window if I get a group chat first, and if I try to stack them, WIM shows me the whisper tab, but won't let me click it.

There was more than just your fix (it fixed it for you but would have been the wrong behavior for others). It will be fixed in the next update.

This would indicate that something is up with WIM's saved variables... One time occurrence or every time? You might have to wipe your saved variables for WIM if it persists. (or run a `/wim reset`) Save a copy incase you want to roll back.

Hi,

Have been using this great addon for many many years, thank you to the current devs for keeping this going.

Recently I have a need not to focus the frame when a whisper comes in, but even with Auto-Focus unselected it still focuses the frame (ie. the cursor is flashing in the editbox).

I have tried not using the popup, which works but then when I select open unread messages, nothing pops up so I guess it marks messages as read even when the frame doesn't popup and whispers are being suppressed from the standard chat frames.

I am also using prat, if that makes any difference.

Am I doing something wrong or is the auto-focus and unread messages not working as intended

Thanks.
