Broker_Portals
Why would you have actionbars filled with portals, or open your spellbook everytime you cast a portal? Just right click on icon or minimap button and you can access all portals so comfortably.
It is designed as DataBroker plug-in, that lets you access all portal and teleport spells from one spot. Addon will be attached to minimap by default, but if you want to move/customize it, you will have to install additional addon like TitanPanel, HidingBar, or Bazooka and there are many more.
Features:
- All mage portals, hearthstone and teleporting items available from simple dropdown menu
- Minimap button, so you don't have to install any additional addon
- Hearthstone location and cooldown in tooltip
- Reagent count in tooltip (for Cataclusm Classic)
- If hearthstone is on cooldown, Scroll of Recall will be used instead if possible
- Can announce, that you're casting a portal
Localization:
If you'd like to add/update localizations, do so here. Then leave a comment on WowAce or on Curse as I'm checking those more often than localization app itself, and I'll repack it.
Bugs / Suggestions:
If you have encountered any problem, or if you think theres something missing. Feel free to post a ticket here.
FAQ:
- I managed to hide my minimap icon, how do I turn it on again?
- Just simply type "/portals".
- Does it support teleportation items like engineering teleports or Kirin Tor rings?
- Yes.
TODO:
Enable adding custom items/spells
It is the retail version.
Sorry I did not post that . I hope this helps. Thanks for the fast update fix.
We have a problem . Just did the update and I just got another error.

In reply to aes_seda:
what era? MoP classic, classic, retail?
In reply to aes_seda:
Ok found it. Pushing fix now, check 1.15.1 when it's out
Ok I've got all challenge portals from Wowhead. Notify me please if some challenge portals are still missing.
Now I pushed update for MoP, also did submenu's for challenge portals based on expansions.
I've prepard MoP classic version, but didn't do anything yet about expansion sorting. I'm not really playing retail at all since BFA but I will get to it
It looks like portals from Season 1 and Season 2 are mixed together, and some of the Season 2 portals aren't showing up. There doesn’t seem to be an option to edit the list — is there any way to fix this?
In reply to user_b5xs3ajn5kg95b48: which season 2 portals are missing?
Does anyone know if there is a way to sort the challenge portal subsection by expansion? With the amount of dungeon portals in game currently, having them all grouped together in a single subsection is starting to get unruly.
In reply to Smugcorp:
I'll look into it
I've created a pull request to fix the issue introduced with 11.1.5. If you need a new version before they update the official release, you can use my fork at https://github.com/Amadeus-/Broker_portals
Hi,

Someting I can do to get the addon working?
I've decided to upgrade menu system so it;s work in progress ATM. While there shouldn't be any visible changes all updates are internal and it should work. Currently know issue is that engineering and hearstone items sometimes won't show on first right click. Something that driving me mad while searching for reason :)
In reply to artscout375:
I submitted a pull request to fix spells not currently working on the retail client. I explained the reason why it wasn't working and the methodology I used to fix it on the pull request itself at https://github.com/artscout/Broker_portals/pull/10
Also, I don't necessarily mind the engineering portals being in a separate menu, but I hate not having a way to quickly see the cooldown on them. If I get some time I'll work on it.
In reply to Cerec:
I made every submenu customizable now )
It looks like The War Within's Engineering portal item, "Wormhome Generator:Khaz Algar", hasn't been added to the list yet.
https://www.wowhead.com/item=221966/wormhole-generator-khaz-algar

It can be displayed when not classified, but not when classified.
