Broker_Portals

Table of Contents

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, ButtonBin, Fortress or my personal recommendation 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
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".
I'm using FuBar, is it possible to use this addon with it?
- Yes it is, but you have to install this small addon Broker2Fubar.
Does it support teleportation items like engineering teleports or Kirin Tor rings?
- Yes.

Hey,

Thanks a lot for this! I've updated the addon with your changes as well as added a few missing items. The font size should be configurable in the menu. Might just need to restart after changing the value.

Can you please test r242-alpha if it works? Unfortunately I don't have access to WoW at the moment.

Best,

Benny

I use a customized version of your addon (subgroups for hearthstones, teleports and portals .. otherwise the menu is just way too large for my mage :P), so I can't speak to your alpha version. However, it appears that setting the font size during PLAYER_LOGIN gets overridden by the default font size, so I just put the dewdrop:SetFontSize call at the top of UpdateMenu. This also allows immediate resizing via options instead of having to /reload.

Thanks to dabear78 for relaying the library update fix I posted in the Issues section (curseforge was giving me parse errors when I tried posting on the front page) and taking the extra step by providing a HOWTO :)

I tried your new alpha version (just a quick test, will continue testing) and it seems to work almost flawlessly (changing the fontsize in the menu also worked for me, but as you said, I have to restart, relog or reload for the changes to take effect). Only 2 little things I noticed: Noble Gardener's Hearthstone (165802) is missing and one thing I also noticed in earlier versions is that announcing a portal in the chat does not work for me (or do I have to be in a group / raid?).

Greets,

Karsten

Edit: I tried what ronin_seven suggested (dewdrop:SetFontSize at the top of UpdateMenu) and it works great. The size changes right after setting the new size, without restarting / relogging / reloading ;)

Announce is only triggered while you're in a party or raid, yes.

Thank you, I've changed the font size setting. Noble Gardener's Hearthstone is now included as well. It is released in 1.11.1.

The feedback is well appreciated!

Hey! Big thanks for the addon! Great work!

Is there a way to just show 1 of the Hearthstone-Toys in the List?

May it be random or preselected, but with the increase of toys we get and a character with almost all port-items its becoming quite a large list :(

Or did I miss some options somewhere?
