Love this addon, along with Prat 3.0. I'm currently in the PTR and I'm hoping both WIM and Prat will be modified to work with the new chat interface coming in 3.3.5.

Hi, first thanks for this addon. I have a question :
Before i was using WIM, when i /w "X person", and press "enter" after having /w him, it kept me on /w "X person". But with WIM, when i /w someone and then re press enter, i am on /say. Is there a possibility to stay on /w?
(I hope you will understand my english, i'm french ;x)
Thanks

Hi Pazza, Thanks for the fantastic addon.

Do you ever accept bounties for features?

I've been dying for an alt-tab (or ctrl-tab or whatever) type message window switching feature... it was in an older version way back in the day, but since the rewrite, it hasn't really made its way back in.

WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) v3 3.3.4

* Still at times does not show a person from another realms PST. It will bring up the window, but not display the text. I have had to have many battleground players tell me in raid chat instead. Can you please ensure this is properly fixed. It gets to be a bit annoying.

I have been going through and refreshing all my addons as I am just getting back into the game for the first time in a long time, and have updated WIM. I was able to open up the options tab by right clicking the WIM icon on the minimap, which was very nice and simple.

However, I accidentally closed the options window ingame after I had changed a setting about being able to see new messages by right clicking the icon, and when I went to right click the WIM icon on the minimap, it didn't drop down a menu. This is understandable, due to my alteration of the settings, but now I cannot figure out how to get to the options window a different way. I have tried unloading WIM and reloading it, but I still cannot get it to work.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

In the most recent update, there's something about a WoWHead link, where can you find that?

Posted new update. This update fixes a bunch of errors everyone has reported specially the one regarding Expose.lua. I have deleted many of the redundant code dump posts which users have submitted... Really, that's irritating. You want to show the code dump, open a ticket. Some of you did (thank you to those folks). If you are not lazy enough to come here and share your errors, please squeeze out the little more effort it takes to use curse's ticket system. it is a big help. Thank you.

I am with "World Chat" - "Trade" enabled.
"Never Pop" and "No History" are checked.
"Never Supress" is unchecked.

Messagens continue to appear in the default chat frame.
I want Trade messages only in a WIM window.

What to do?

look at your Window Behavior rules for chat. Remember there is a tab for each state that your character is in. Such as Resting, Combat, Other, etc...

WIM is totally broken for me.

All incoming messages are suppressed from the standard chat log, as well as from WIM.

It took me 2 days to notice it, i just figured everyone I tried talking to was afk...

I tried deleting all the saved variables out of the WTF folder, and addon WIM folder, no luck.

Love the addon, please update!

Just wish to add to my previous post that I tried disable Prat (and libs) as well as Wim at the same time and then I logged back in and tried to send myself a PM, didn't work. Then I logged out disabled Atlasloot and tried again and then it worked. Then I enabled Atlas again and it still worked. What gives? Could it be some memory problem?
