I don't have the error handy, but the window handler is throwing an error anyone time someone completes a quest for me - freezing the game momentarily.

Something along the lines of:

any reason addons like Twitchemotes (and emote addons in general) is no longer properly displaying in the new versions?

Havent worked since 3.12.17.

can't right click whisper window but if i back up to previous version all is well.

11.2.7 is not interactive on the windows, right click on user you cannot invite them to grp etc. You can do this in 11.2.5 when downgrading

Just so you know, BugSack is saying WIM is throwing out nil values like crazy when I look at the calendar while using WIM.

In reply to Taluwen: I'm also getting this error very often (anytime someone completes a quest)

Hiya - It might not be on your end but I'd say about a week ago most of my Twitch Emote addons that have a gif emote stopped working properly in the WIM window.

The normal 'still' emotes works perfectly fine and the search menu works, but anything that can "move" doesnt move any longer for some reason. I tried some different things but seems like it's how WIM acts perhaps?

For info I use ElvUI and the normal chatframe works percectly fine, it's just the whisper window.

And if I get a whisper in combat that goes to the 'normal left side' windows it will be animated but anything inside the WIM window is no longer moving :)

Cheers in advance.

When I log in or after the loading screen, I freeze for 1-2 minutes, and this has been happening since Shadowlands.

In reply to RealPazza: No, I just installed the add-on.

Hi RealPazza,

I was wondering if you were planning on any updates soon?

like bumping the toc for retail to v11.2.5 which launches/patches in today.

retail for WIM is still at 11.1.7

I just made a $10 donation hope it helps..

plus the Mists of Pandaria classic toc could use a bump too

from v5.5.0 to v5.5.1

please and thanks.

I'm having about 5-10 seconds of game freezing every time I enter my chat box or a whipser window, no matter who or which window or which channel, it's making it very hard to use

Im having strange issue with addon, when i log in to character (no matter which one) 1st whisper i send to someone makes whole game lag/freeze for 1-2s, happens every time only on 1st whisper

After transferring from Mankrik to Galakras when I try to whisper people from the previous server it's trying to send it to TOONNAME-Mankrik. No matter what I do I cannot whisper people on Galakras if they were on Mankrik with me.

I can no longer see my messages from characters across the entire realm in WIM. I can only see the messages from the specific character I'm currently on. If that no longer works in WIM, I no longer need the add-on.

WIM block currency transfer.
