whenever i have several tabs of conversations going sometimes the window will split and a person's tab will become it's own window - except that i can't type anything to them -it just keeps showing the last message that person sent me. it affects not only the window that split out but the other tabs of conversations i have going too. the only way i found to fix it was to reload the UI. any ideas what is happening? i don't get any error messages when it happens

It'd be brilliant. It's terrible when I have a lot of enchanting contracts, and I need to reload UI. I lose customers. =/

When I try to link an item to friends I get a double link, and when I try to link another item the same thing happens, only there's a third link, first with the previous item then two current items. Is this an addon conflict with Prat maybe? That's the only one that makes sense. I think this is also what Kaisoul is talking about as well.

I started missing a lot of whispers from people when I updated to v3.0 5b. I would get the sound alert that a whisper came through, but I wouldn't see the WIM window open. Then when I tried replying to the person who later would say they whispered me, but I never responded, and why was I ignoring their whispers -- I was then also unable to even see my own text I typed to them into the WIM window. Checking the history for that person showed nothing either.

Anyway, since I never had these issues with 3.0 4b, I have reverted to that version. I hope this is fixed in future releases.

I've been starting to get an error when changing tabs or trying to close one. It's strange...I'll get two chat boxes for the same person, and when I try to close either of them, an error box pops up that says, "Interface\AddOns\WIM\Sources\TabHandler.1ua:423: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)" I've included a link to the actual SS so you can check it out. I've tried reinstalling but it keeps randomly doing that, and when it is erroring out, I can't chat with anyone, even via the normal chat box.

You don't shift click the tab. you shift click the X (close) button.
Shift clicking the tabs allows you to pull a tab out of a tab group.

This is a great addon, thanks for developing this and keeping it up to date with all the changes that Blizz throws at us.

The only issue I am having with it, is when I shift+click to close windows (I use the tabbed feature). I will click to close one, but it separates it from the tabbed window instead. Then things go down from there. Whomever whispered me last is the only person I can reply to. I can click in a different window, type a response and hit enter to send but it goes to that last person that whispered me before the error happened. The only way I can fix this, since at that point WiM doesn't work at all, is to log out and back in.

I would love to have the ability to tab between windows again, and to not have my focus taken away while I'm typing a reply to someone if someone else whispers me.

At the request of users, WIM now uses only LibDataBroker, installing Broker2Fubar should allow you to use this module with Fubar

I know this is probably some huge oversight on my part but I cannot seem to get the new version to run in tabbed mode. Any help on this would be great.
