I constantly get a "disable" error when right clicking to open a recipe, Open a cache box, opening anything by right clicking & WiM tells me its not going to allow the opening of the item and I can ignore or disable wow. Ignoring then I still cant open the recipe so I have to click disable WiM. Anyone else having this happen as it is so annoying :(

Whispers work normally when whispering friends or players from my own realm. But when trying to Whisper someone that's queuing for my keystone and he's from other server, i get the "No player named X is currently playing" message. If i deactivate WIM and reload, i can whisper them without any issue. If i activate WIM again, the problem happens again. So i don't know what it its, but it's definitely WIM. It doesn't trigger any LUA errors though, so can't help you with that. Hope you can do something about it! thanks for your work.
PD: after disabling the Elvui-skin addon for WIM it works fine, so i guess its the WIM Skin: ElvUI addon

This might be caused by another addon. I am not able to reproduce the error. Please be specific on steps to reproduce the problem you are having.

Server names are currently done by replacing spaces.

if i "Right-Click for profile links..." and select "WoW Armory" it gives me a faulty link.

E.g. "Tarren mill" is put as "Tarrenmill", but on wow armory its "Tarren-mill".

Using alot due to pugging. Please fix. :)

I might not be understanding correctly. It is currently programmed to replace spaces with dashes for the WoW Armory link.

Is that not how it is done anymore?

Sorry if this has been answered already ..

I am a new WIM user. Is there a way to move the cursor inside edit box using arrow keys? When I press right/left, my character turns.

I'm using Prat3 as well. Arrows work seamlessly with Prat edit box though.

Thanks!

It is a feature of prat. by default WoW blocks the arrow keys so it doesn't interfere as much with your game place. You can navigate the edit box by using the ALT+Arrow Keys

Hi! Thanks for this addon, is really great to organize whispers and trade chat for the selling crafting process in DF :)

I just want to let you know that I have an error on the trade window. I've setted WIM to show trade channel on a different WIM window but when I leave the city it gives me an error on the WIM window "Invalid channel name" and re-entering the city won't join Trade channel back again.

I have to logout and login and type "/join Trade" to be able to see trade channel again.

I've found a bug report on prat addon similar to the same issue. maybe it can help? :)

In reply to 2BOnest:

I believe this is not an error of WIM. WIM doesn't handle the joining of channel. I tested leaving and entering cities with only WIM enabled and I don't seem to be getting this error.
