- 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
How can I get my chat box to look exactly how the screenshot does? I've played around for ages and can't seem to get it to look like that. (Chatter1.jpg)
The colours are very clean and the box itself looks nice. Would appreciate any help trying to make it look like that.
I can't move the chat box, nor can i resize it
It looks like the Blizzard chat is overlaying with Chatter
getting this error any time i reloadui or log into the game. not doing anything else (retail)
*edit*
fixed this error by unchecking "no real names" in player names section
is there any way to enable the share to twitter icon in chat ?

Any fix on Chatter giving an error whenever you try to change notes in the Guild UI - something about Chatter being blocked from action only available to Blizzard UI."
Why has Chatter as long as it has existed never had the ability to move the frame where we type in to say above the chatframe?
In reply to fittetwitch:
you mean the editbox? you can move it, go to chatter settings and look at editbox polish

In reply to Forge_User_52088463:
also i cant remove the border from the editbox
I moved from Prat3 and there's only one thing Im missing. I'd like to use just arrow keys instead of alt+arrows for edit box history.
In reply to Durdanius:
it's about to get use to it. better to teach your self without any additional addons, because when Blizz decide to break something hard - you won't need to get used with the new ones ;) btw ... i'm here just because i'm (was) a Prat user as well ;)
In reply to Durdanius:
another thing missing is the share to twitter button when you obtain an item or achieve . or take a screen shot
Can you do it for classic? Please.
Doesn't work with links for the communities feature. Blocks the user from being able to join them.
This seems to not be working on classic, the chat box shows but nothing anyone says appears in it.
Does this addon not work with elvui?
Can we get a TOC update so Blizzard doesn't scream at us that Chatter is out of date?
I'm getting an error screen now when ever I try to use a certain quest item. It states that chatter is the problem, say i need to use a stick to whip a gnome, and the stick icon is in my quest log on screen. It won't let me use the item in the quest log but if i take the item out of my bag and put in my action bar it works. I disable chatter and it works fine...
Great addon!
Can we get an option to auto-fade the background, so it goes semi-transparent until the mouse moves over it?
Rightclicking names returns this error:
