I know this is a stupid question, but are you using the latest release? This was an issue in the past but have confirmed from everyone that it has been fixed.

just found a lovely little fubar addon called FuBar_ChannelwatchFu (http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/project-13891.aspx) - problem is as soon as i enable it, WiM goes bonkers with errors and quits working... any way to fix this (other than NOT using this new addon)?

I say stick it out until the 3.1 patch comes out. Along with WoW's patch, WIM will graduate to 3.1 as well with a new feature which people have been requesting for quite some time now :-)

Great addon, but I have an issue I was hoping there was an answer to. Sometimes I am finding that I cannot get whispers from people. People on my friends list seem to come through okay, but I find that more often than not now, I have to disable the addon in order to receive any others. It's random it seems because there are times when I get a whisper from a stranger just fine. I don't know if there is an issue here, or a configuration that I just have set wrong but I need to figure this out because I love this addon. I have turned the filter option off and I use ChatMOD in conjunction with this addon.

This is a common problem if you are using a spam blocker. Known problems with SpamSentry and SpamMeNot.

Hi, I can't find an answer to this anywhere, so if it's been posted and /or addressed, my apologies in advance.

Love the addon, finally just installed it. I only have one problem though. I want to move the mini map icon to a different position on my mini map, and I cannot. I tried unlocking it from the mini map, and that keeps it locked into another position in the upper right corner of my screen. I also tried alt-click dragging, that didn't work.

Any suggestions?

Also, I have FuBar, everything is updated. Is there a FuBar icon for WIM? I can't find that either.

Thanks!

I believe you have to shift-click to move the mini map icon.

Hi guys,

I got a "problem" which could be even useful in some situations (lol), but I'd like to choose when enable it or not :P. But in this case I'd prefer to take it as a problem and cut it off!

Anyway, after an update released a month ago or so, everytime I receive a message I can listen the altert sound as I configured it in the options (e.g. the "Bell" sound), but I receive another sound after some seconds, which is another type of sound referred to the same message (and not a new incoming from other guys). That's the default sound of a previous version which is not in the addon anymore (well, I did not find it in the sound list). It seems to be useful when, for example, I did not catch the first alert sound for whatever reason, but it's really frustrating because It's like other messages have been sent from somebody else, so I have the instinct to click on the little ball on the minimap to find out whoelse sent me a message xD.

What can I do to solve this problem? Have any idea? Hopefully I explained it clearly enough... ^^
Thanks a lot!

New Release including many bug fixes along with the April Fools joke removed (which IMO was pointless considering it is now april 2nd lol?).

Either way... The world can now rest as this horror that apparently many people call humor, is now over.
