WowAce

Almost ever time i minimize the chat payne i get DCed! Not cool when in groups to run instances lol. Has anyone else had this happen to them? and if so how did u fix it, or could u fix it?

Yep... I've got the same Error (Disconnect) about 10 times today, when doing the same as you... :'(

A few suggestions, and I apologize in advance if any/all of these are already in the works:

Would be nice to see a feature where you can hit tab to scroll through recent people you've had conversations with, like the WoW default whisper system.

Minor, aesthetic thing: make it so it is compatible with prat (or other text addons) so that when the WIM window is suppressed (ie, in combat), the tells you get in your text box follow your regular formatting. Right now, when I get a tell while WIM is supressed, there is no time stamp and the person's class color (and main character's name, if applicable) don't show up.

Finally, is there a way to make tabs flash when you get a tell instead of that person's box moving up front? I thought I disabled the sort by most recent, but I still get interrupted mid-sentence when I'm typing to someone else and someone sends me a tell. It causes a lot of weird mistells.

Is there a way to have the "conversations in tabs" feature in the actual add on? If it's there, I can't find it. :S

I know what you mean by that. It's been doing it for a long time now. I've noted it down already here and so have others but we have yet to see a fix for it. I'm guessing it's a problem with other addons. I will give this a go and see how it works with only WIM enabled and everything else disabled. At first it was working fine but then it want back to...

I was like WTF it just won't stop. While this is happening, people are sending you messages but your not getting them. Then all of a sudden BAM! they all come out on the screen. I'm sure we're still in beta with WIM and doing the best we can to help. If this problem is not fixed by launch I'm sorry to say but you can't use this addon. It's too risky losing messages from people and being called a **** for not answering back lol. I was trying to figure out why nobody was messaging me back for BT Pug. I guess WIM pulled a fast one on me.

At first WIM works fine, then when people whisper me, all I see is the same line over and over and over again. When I type something, its their line showing up again, when they type something else it's still that line that shows up.
I get these errors:

I have no idea how to fix it... Any ideas?

I am having this -exact- same issue ever since I updated WIM today. It's very frustrating. :(

Couple issues I'm having...
-Have to right-click and select whisper 2x before I get a WIM window to pop up.
-Seems to be blocking /who
-I'll notice my 'messages' prompt is flashing on the mini-map, but when I click on the 'Conversations' drop-down list, I have blank windows with no text in them.

Hmm, lately whenever I minimize (not close) WIM, Wow will crash with an Access Violation. The obvious difference between a minimize and close is the animation of the window. ???

I was having the same problem, but disabling the minimization animation has fixed it for now. See if that helps any.

I have some kind of problem where WIM is overlapping all my other windows inside wow. I think this is best described with a pic; so here it comes:
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y219/patamon90/WoWScrnShot_110108_142652.jpg
WIM is overlapping, in this example, the character info-screen, making me unable to go to any of the other tabs.

Anyone else having the problem of 1- or 2-second lockups with incoming whispers, or when switching to a tab that has a new whisper?

Is the opions going to get updated as well as the window ?
plz reply asap ty =) I love this addon ,very handy as a gm to Not Miss a wisper from a guildie

Ty & let me know if i can help in any way

Also wondering if the 3 (any of the 3) plugins for WIM will be updated for WoW 3.0? I've had conflicts between SpamSentry and the WIM Spam blocker myself.

People with the problem of the first whisper being sent over and over again, is this happening when that first whisper is NOT sent during combat?

I am still getting chat spam of the first reply from whoever I am chatting with. When I disable WIM the spam stops. This has been ongoing since 3.02 and I have tried every version of WIM since then.

Please fix!!! Simpler is better.

hello, I'm sorry for my bad english.
I have a problem with WIM with Ludwig.
When I linked a Item in a wisper chanel of WIM then the text is delite and the item link is double in the chat frame or is linked before in the chatframe.
This is be all my friends and my girlfriend.

Can you please help my with the problem? :)

An issue I've been having is I'm trying to change the color of incoming whispers. I click on the color box it pops up the color pallete but clicking on the pallete does nothing, infact at this point you can't accept the changes via the button the only way out at this point is to hit ESC and it brings me back to the menu with the whisper options with no color change. This is kind of critcal for me due to low contrast vision issues, I find the default magenta kind of dark.

I don't know what the heck went wrong here, but this addon went from being the first installed to the worst one I have ever had the misfortune of coming accross. The simple, elegant, and intuitive interface and operation that WIM had before the 302 patch, has been shown the door, and replaced with a pendantic options arrangement, popup functionality that someone manages to be COUNTERintuitive, and an INFURIATING change in layout.

Tips to improve :
- reinstate popup on all messages, but do NOT steal focus
- reinstate option to set stacked windows
- intercept /w, r, and Shift-R with a WIM window, not a blinking I in the minimap button.
- reinstate rightclick functionality to minimap button
