I don't know if this has been reported but I experience double-linking when I shift click something to go in a message. It puts in it twice, as well as not showing any text that I type before the link, only text afterwords does it show. I only started to experience this for about a month or so.

Bugreport: the party leader doesn't go in the party frame, any chance to fix it, I think it's a new issue with 3.3,

I get that large question-mark button too, but clicking it only brings up the same Lua errors.

Annoying thing with WIM that I've noticed recently:

After logging in to WoW, if I left-click somewhere on the ground, or a wall, or any non-interactive part of the world, I get LUA errors identical to the ones Imarrero posted. When this happens, I can easily dismiss the error box, but something else pops up that I can't dismiss.

A large, round button with a question mark in it appears near the bottom-center of my screen. It highlights when I hover the cursor on it, but clicking it does absolutely nothing. It covers up some of my buttons in my G15 addon, but I cannot make this thing go away. Anyone know how to stop this, short of not using WIM until it's fixed?

Blizzard made some changes to their tutorial system. I've found that disabling tutorials made the questionmark button go away as well as most of the WIM LUA error messages. It still doesn't capture the first party leader or guild message as far as making the chat window available from the minimap button/TitanPanel icon but it otherwise seems to work fine for me.

Have you checked to make sure that you do or do not have "Right Click to Open Unread Messages" on. If you do, then you need to unchech that, or hold the shift key with mouse to move to the mini-map icon.

The addon stillw orks well, you just have to enable "load out of date" or edit the *.toc file manually with a text editor and set the version to 30300 instead of 30200.

I just figured out the incompatibility that causes WIM to link twice and remove text written before a link. It is Underachiever, a friend that uses WIM just added it and now he is linking things twice to me. Hope this can be resolved, because it's fairly annoying :P

Getting error when using Altoholic.

Altoholic puts chat messages in to the chat box and this errors WIM. so bad that after a couple times my computer will crash.

Worked fine till 3.3

Thanks

Is it possible to add the functionality to navigate through the text (change cursor position) in the edit field with arrow keys on keyboard?? Navigation through last sended messages with arrow key up/down (like linux command line) would also be very nice.
