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

It does not have any kind of such option. The chat highlight is working for channels only, not system messages.

It's Alt Linking module. Configure it to your taste or just disable it.
On a more common note, why you've installed addon and come here complaining before you crawled through it's options and understood every one of them?
I've used Chatter to rename a few channels but, this removes the channel number. It would be nice when I move character to character if the common (custom) channels were all in the same order.
But it conflicting with Chatter, as you could expect.
If it is posible, i'd like to have similar functionality integrated into Chatter.
love this addon but I got a probably really dumb question. Is there any way to turn off tabs in one chatframe but not the other?
thanks

My only problem with this, is how do u disable the scrollback feature when your chatting. If in combat and chatting and you try to move backwards or what not it will just scroll through your last messages and delete the one you were typing. Spent awhile just cant figure that prblem out.
But beyond that....this is a great Addon!!!
finally able to fit in a custom chat box with the coolest of features. Thanks for this contribution :DDDD been using for awhile now."
Great addon :D
How about an option to ignore certain channels, with stuff like Carb on default-ignore?
But I have to go back and reselect x-perl thin after any relog. I'm wondering whether this is because the x-perl thin hasn't actually been loaded yet at the point that chatter loads (because c comes before x)? Anyway, a fix would be nice :)
you'll be need to correct it every time you update Chatter, but the loading issues will be fixed.
my text input box disappeared on me
like so i can't see what i'm typing to people
