This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.
CowTip is a customizeable, tag-based tooltip addon. It is based on Rock and other libraries of the community. It is currently in beta.
CowTip isn't meant to be the smallest addon humanly possible, but it will be clean, configurable, and have the same polish I afford my other addons.
Let me rephrase. I DL'd the prong version, make sure you have the r40 version, not the one from the general projects folder. That just downloads the same version as above (3.1.2).
This mod, like others from Ckknight, has become an integral part of my WoW experience. Unfortunately, its current state has rendered it an extreme annoyance, rather than a polished UI modification.
It sure would be nice to get some kind of response from the author...
None of the textbox information shows up other than my name, level and race. I've had this problem since the 3.0 upgrade. Any idea on how to fix this? I have reinstalled cow-tip many times and still can't figure it out.
Any word on fixing the Immediate Hide issue?? It's really annoying when I am trying to click on someone to heal them but they get hidden by cow top because of a dead mob next to them...
Yeah, this is definitely a drag - fortunately I only do about 10 arenas a week, but it's still one of the last things in my UI I'd love to see resolved.
Here's the bug I was talking about in my previous post. This tooltip is at the far right of my screen and my target, or the target's target, will break through the tooltip. This only occurs when I highlight a unit frame and not when I put the cursor over my actual target.

You sure this is CowTip error? I mean, if you would read through your errors, you would notice "EQCompare" word. Try to disabled EquipCompare addon and try again.
Does anyone have a link to a working link to the dogtag-3.0 documentation? I'm trying to abbreviate the [name:servername] syntax to something like [name:*] to servers other than my own but cannot find a FAQ or anything.
I've tried wowace already but couldn't find anything there. Thanks.

Do you plan to update it there with this latest version?
If not is it ok for someone else to do so?
Driving me nuts.
