Chatter
Chatter is a comprehensive, lightweight, mega-configurable chat enhancement addon. It supports a whole bunch of stuff, including:
- Hiding buttons
- Custom aliases for channel names
- Coloring of player names by class or deterministic HSV formula, and player levels next to names
- Custom font and font size for your chat frames
- Custom background, border, and positioning for the edit box
- Option to let the edit box border color match the color of the channel you are typing in
- Channel colors remembered by name, rather than by number
- Scrolling your chat frames with the mouse wheel.
- Sticky channels, configurable
- Ability to copy a chat frame's contents to your clipboard
- Ability to copy URLs to your clipboard
- Ability to customize the background and border of your chat frames
- Timestamps
- A /tt command to send a tell to your target
- A module that turns the word "invite" into clickable links that let you invite the speaker.
- Highlights both for custom keywords in specific channels
- Chat fading toggles
- Text justification
- Autologging (Off by default)
- Alt linking
- Much larger and smaller chat frames than default
- A Groupsay (/gr) command to talk to your group, whether that's battleground, raid, or party.
- Chat Tab look-n-feel modifications
- Paging through chat tabs with the scroll wheel
Is there any way to hide the scroll bar, so the chat can ocupy the entire box?
Chat channel aliases aren't working at all for me. They're turned on, but I'm still seeing the really long channel names.
Your addon is GREAT... but i think that expansion fuck it! :O Maybe that's a IonH's Curse, we need decurse that!
So, i'm listing some issues i founded to help you track. Sorry if someone already did it :O
- I can't send a message for a contact on my social list. That put me in /s or /g chat every time.
- The chat window (most cool in that addon) show me one extra button for roll text to bottom, and showing out of frame.
- I'm getting blocked to send messages for people out of BG or dungeons in my social or use the new channel community... or i need go to my battle.net app and send a message. Tha automatically send my message on dg/bg group chat and i got kicked for that once. :O
- It's deactivating the default shortcut to send message to last contact sent/received: "shift + R"
for more information: i'm using with WIM too like i ever did. Maybe help reporting. :)
Good job, good luck.
Hi,
I got a Problem if I wanna set a focus. It doesnt show the LUA Error but the window with "Chatter has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI. You can disable this addon and reload the UI" pop in.
I hope you can fix it
Chatter is breaking the pet battle ui for me.

Hello,
I'd also like a way to hide the scroll and voice chat buttons :)
There's an issue with the module "Edit Box Polish" as well. If you change the "Edge size" (with the slider) of the border, it changes on the moment but you have to do it again every time you relog because it doesn't stay the way you set it up.
Here is a screenshot to help finding what I'm talking about :

Thanks in advance!
Hi! Thanks for the update. Some problems still linger tough:
I use the chat windows at the very edge of the lower left corner. Normal windows respect this position but the combat log still gets stuck at the default limit of the stock chat window. Also, there's a missing example in the drop down window of the timestamp options (I think it is HH:MM:SS (12HR) without AM/PM)
Hiding button module is not working, the scroll buttons still show. Hiding the channels button would be nice too. Or maybe the ability to move it, in case the in-game voice becomes a thing.
Hi!
Thanks for updating this addon for 8.0, I love it!
Would it be possible to add an option to hide the new 'Chat Channels' button?
I updated this addon, but it still seems unstable.
I can not unlock chat box.
Is this addon dead? Any replacement?
Would love to see an update to Chatter for 8.0!!!! <3
The problems with the CopyText function aren't caused by Chatter but by the LibDialog library that it uses to display that box.
To resolve the issue, place the following two files into the World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\LibDialog-1.0 folder:
LibDialog-1.0.lua
LibDialog-1.0.toc
Please note that this is not an official update for LibDialog, just my own edits to resolve the issue. I've posted the changes and notes to the LibDialog creator for him to include in a new release, but it hasn't been updated since 7.0.3.
The TOC was changed to update the addon for 7.3.0. If you have any questions, please let me know.
So after downloading what was labeled an update from 4 hours ago, I can definitively say that whatever changes it made... made no difference. Patch 7.3.0 has completely broken the copy text function (what was left of it to begin with), and most of the settings appear to be broken as well.
RIP, I guess.
Still no updates to this addon, so I'm just going to say it:
THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN ABANDONED.
I guess whoever is ultimately responsible for this addon must not be playing anymore since Chatter still badly needs updating. =/
Any chance the background color and border can be set to a global preferences? Same goes for the location of the chat window, it's different for all my characters and I have to use a separate addon to set it up.
Copy text seems to be broken. When I open the copy window, it is blank.

Messes with my pvp join.
Pretty simple question. - Paging through chat tabs with the scroll wheel
How is this achieved? I can't find any settings or key binding options related to this functionality.
