Minimap icon does not load on the minimap. I use sexymap addon. Workaround has been to go into WIM options and uncheck then recheck enable WIM or display minimap icon. Can the /wim enable macro or something similar be run during it's initial game-loading phase?
There is a bug with the "recently sent message" right click function, the window duplicates itself indefinitely.
I would like to see level of who is whispering me on classic era
In reply to stormeagle2:
This feature isn't working since Spetember 2019 because of patch 8.2.5 / 1.13.2 which updated the SendWho api to require a hardware event.
You can still SHIFT-click the players name to send a server request for the player info.
Wow added a setting that censors chat by default in 10.1.7 but it can be disabled in the settings, however this only disables censoring messages on your own realm. if someone writes anything remotely inappropriate in my whispers from another realm its censored but without any addons I should be able to show the message. I used WIM tho and WIM doesnt let me click to show the message. there is no fix to this issue for other realm whispers, this needs to be fixed please I see a lot of people in the comments complaining about it too so im not alone with this one! Add a functionality that allows us to click "Show message" at least.
In reply to griffisuwu:
Did you ever find a PM manager that disables or works around this?
Invites to Community groups are blocked when someone send it in private msg to me with WIM. It says only original interface of WOW can do it. Any chance to fix it?
And is there any option in WIM to block opening a new original chat tab of WOW interface if private message received and WIM is enabled? This option is in original WOW interface, but need to turn it off when WIM is on, and turn it on when WIM is off for example.
For all of you, who have problem with icon not holding on your designed spot:
1. go to Games\World of Warcraft 1\_retail_\WTF\Account\YOURNAME\SavedVariables
2. Find WIM.lua
3. Logout your char
4. Edit it with notepad++ or whatever
5. find ["free_position"]
6. Update position manually. First line "y" is UP, second line "x" is from left to right if you have ["point"] = "BOTTOMLEFT" like me
7. Save and login to check where icon is, repeat 3-7 until you find the spot
It took me few logouts, still beter than constantly moving icon out of chat box on every character on every /reload or login. This setting stays on all of them.
Since 10.2, I can't link items into chat anymore. Is there a fix for this?
How do you turn off the profanity filter please >:( It drives me nuts https://i.imgur.com/CB8ZpvR.png and no, clicking "show message" does nothing :(
Update please.
Run into an issue with WIM seemingly censoring some posts but the profanity filter is NOT turned on. I can't see the entire message so not even sure if it's something insignificant. It says "Message from *player* is potentially inapproriate. [Show Message] (In yellow text) I'm unsure how to show the message. Anybody have any ideas?
In reply to Bloobahdoo: I have exactly the same problem... i turned off the button and it keep filtering the messages...
In reply to Maarttyr: I don't know how to fix it. It started after I updated it to the latest patch. It never happened before.
In reply to Bloobahdoo: It isn't the Mature Language Filter setting, but a new different setting that was added in 10.1.7 - near the top of the Social part of Gameplay options there is a "Censor Messages", which is by default set to "Everyone except friends" and needs to be updated on a per-character basis. If you want to avoid it you need to set it to "no one" (at least until WIM is fixed and you can reveal the messages).
It is turned off on my character, but I just received this message anyway
In reply to Bloobahdoo: Has there been any fix? My censor messages has been set to 'No one" and I'm still having no luck.
Is there a limit on how big wim's history can get?
For some reason today wim is wiping my settings file clean. But i noticed if i manually clear all the history of one of my toons and copy back the settings file i had from a backup it seems to load fine now.
After selecting the character and entering the log, the game freezes for about 2 minutes. I use the version for 9.2.7 (private server: Firestorm)
