Is it possible to merge all non-whisper important chat (guild, party, raid, etc) into one WIM window? I can only get it to put each type into it's own windown, meaning I have several windows floating around. I want those types all in one window, and my whispers in another, and my junk text in the original Blizzard frame.

I just installed this addon but i have a huge request. Before using this addon i used natural blizzard ui and gearscore. Allthough chat is much easier now, the chat doesn't add the gear score of the person who is whispering me. As i organise a lot of pugs this is very important for me and i can't use this addon. Please make it compatible with GearScore.

no, gearscore had in brackets the rating of the person that whispered me. All i want if it can be done is to have in brackets (or any other way) the same i had with gear score and blizzards normal ui.

I've been using WIM for a long time but had never taken the time to configure other types of chat under the Chat.

WOW. Your addon is saving me lots of time now that I've starting using all of it.

I notice since installing WIM that it is doing a lot of (unnecessary) /who inquiries, and forcing my own /who inquiries to be queued by it.

Is this really necessary, and is there a way to disable it? (short of disabling WIM that is)

it does a /who whenever a window of a whisper convo is created. And yes, libWho is needed to manage this. WIM used to have it's own method of managing /who requests but was not friendly with other addons trying to accomplish the same things. Hense LibWho. is the standard on /who management

If you alt-click the name when whispering to disable the messenger?

Hello, I've been a big fan and have used WIM for a very long time. Recently, I have started getting this error and WIM doesn't work. Is this a known issue with the newest version, or did I break something. I have deleted any trace of WIM in my WTF folder and still get the same error when logging in:

Oftentimes when in combat and replying to someone, my chat box will jump to the top of the screen, not at all where i have it set to spawn at.

Other times it will grow the entire vertical length of the screen and take up top to bottom. The only fix for this is to close the window by shift clicking the minimize button.

It also appears in a different location than I set when i get multiple conversations. About a 1/8th of an inch lower.

Any fixes for these problems?

Ok so maybe I missed this part....3 main questions really....
1. how do I get rid of the text showing up in the blizzard chat window if I'm using WIM?
2. It seems in the video that your chat bar is above where the blizz chat window is. Is that part of WIM or a different addon?
3. Is it possible to make the chat responsive the enter key like blizz chat currently is so I don't have to always click on the chat window again?

Thanks.

Can you add wowhead.com to your list of profile checkers? Wowhead boils down someones profile to a single number. That makes it easy to check if someone is still in their old questing gear or raid worthy. still won't help me filter out the idiots that wear a mix of DPS/Tanking gear when I need them healing, but it's a start.

Please add a class selection option to Whispers -> Filtering.
So we can make specific blocks for lvl <56 Death Knight.

Stupid gold sellers are getting too smart. :(

I poked around a bit in the options menu, but still need some help locating 2 options, Couldn't find to somehow make it more MSN like. Wanted to bind enter for reply. like Prat does. when someone is having a conversation with me i will automatic reply him when pressing enter. Hope you guys understand. And one more thing, it really annoys med that the chat pops up in my face when someone is whispering. But I'm sure that is pretty easy to find in options.
/Thank in advance, Hoebo.
