I get this error when I receive a whisper from someone that I closed once already during my current session. It doesn't happen with new whispers.

So, after some thorough testing, I have found an addon that, when used in conjunction with WIM, causes the Battle.net error: Broker: AltGuild

If anybody with more experience in Lua and debugging can track what might be making the two incompatible, many of us would be thankful, as I'm sure whatever method or function being used is not isolated to AltGuild.

There's a few files and scripts in your addon that still use the defunct ChatFrameEditBox and any command related to that. Because of the "IM Style" setting in the options, you have to use a specific one, like ChatFrame1EditBox for the General tab or ChatFrame2EditBox for the Combat Log. I don't know what the new command is to get the active box, but I don't think it matters which box you aim at. This is also true for any instance of "ChatFrame", which also needs a number at the end.

just so you know, this addon works fine in cata beta, but the previous issues such as ignore not working will still need to be fixed.

Is it possible to hide the player name is the whisper box?
The name is at the top so i dont need it on every line, and the different colours make it easy to tell bewteen incoming and outgoing messages.

Create addon. I would like to give some suggestions.
1) Each window should have it's on configuration (width, height, toolbar vis and so on) and the user should be able to change it's settings by drag-n-drop and show/hide buttons.
2) Make a light version of the chat window. Remove class icon, name(just a small one on the top), no background texture (image). I think you got the picture.
3) It would be awesome if this addon interacts with current wow chat interface working together with their tabs. Because right now I have wow chat taking bottom left of my screen and WIM taking bottom middle of my screen. if we could get them together would be perfect.

nice job on addon. :)

Great addon. I don't understand why i can't shift-link anything in a tell though. I receive a message from someone asking which one. He links 2 pieces, and I have to link back in party, raid, or guild. Can't link recipes for mats. Can't link anything.

The new Real-ID friendslist is in some way blocked or delayed a lot by WIM.
I have no idea how or anything, I just disabled addon after addon until I found that it was WIM that was blocking the new friendslist in social tab.
I hope the author can take a look at this and see if there is anything that can be done about it.

Feature request: "? [link]" is an auction feature which generates a statement about said item...could there be a filter we could turn on that would not cause this to not pop up or do anything at all
