I have 2 accounts and when I go to sounds, one of my accounts has many sounds and the other has very few. I was wondering what folder are the sounds for whispers stored in so I could add more sounds. Thank You!

In reply to RealPazza: TY for the reply =)

i notice that my wim has started adding |Hsuiseq:51 just before my message after my name this is happening on tbc classic but i don't know if this is happening to others on retail as well. This just started update before last

Latest update broke the addon, I will be reverting back to previous version until its fixed.

ACTION_SP

love this, but it really struggles on wow classic era, with the merged realms.

If I want to whisper a name for another realm, it opens two windows, one for the name, and one for the characterwithrealmname.

there seems to be more bugs with this crossrealmstuff

in retail, something introduced in version 3.16.9 (and still happening in version 3.16.10) is preventing me from starting whispers from opening my friends list/contact, highlighting a person (character friend or bnet) and clicking "Send Message", as well as right-clicking users and selecting "Whisper" from the context menu. No LUA errors or anything accompany this behaviour and it happens even when no other addons are enabled. I've had to revert to version 3.16.8 where this isn't happening.

is there a way to make whispers show up in the pop up window and still in your defualt chat as well?

Hello ,

Got a lil problem with the addon ( not a big error ) but i can't close whispers with the cross on addon's icon , not happening all the time.

No other chat addons installed

From the start of Midnight, in a connected server:

- when I left click a character name on chat, a window with Charname - Servername window opens.

- when I right click + whisper only the Character name is used.

If I type on the Charname - servername window, the message opens a new window with the charname or it appears there if already open.

Incoming messages always show in the Charname window.

I’m really enjoying using this addon. However, since I play multiple characters, I often need to check my records, and the list is currently sorted only in alphabetical order, which makes it difficult to find who I last whispered. I would greatly appreciate it if you could add an option to sort by most recent, so that the most recent whisper contacts appear at the top.

Can´t answer/whisper in combat
