WIM (WoW Instant Messenger) is a World of Warcraft addon which helps you to manage your whispers by making them into a classic instant messenger interface such as AIM, Yahoo and MSN.

Some of WIM's major features are:
-Tabbed or windowed messages

-Filtering
-Fully customizable
-and more...

Moxie A Cobalt Mageweaver Forum posts: 203 File comments: 122 Uploads: 2	I agree, an update for compatibility with today's patch would be great. It's impossible to have conversations with cross-realm friends with this enabled, I've found. __________________ "Someday we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and quickly change the subject."

Bornabe A Flamescale Wyrmkin Forum posts: 133 File comments: 288 Uploads: 6	BornabeUI Idea. Is there a way or possibility to merge different types of chat into 1 WIM Window, as to replace the Blizzard Chat window entirely? WIM is just better in every way, but having multiple windows to manage can be a pest for the channels I'm ok with having merged. Whispers I like to keep in their own window that can show / hide based on Combat, which is just awesome, but I've got an itch to use WIM on a broader scale and know it manages the different chat 'types', but can it manage them 'together'?

roqua99 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 24 Uploads: 0	Hey just a sugestion for the addon, could you make an option for people like me that like to make 10/25 man pug raids. Because i get A LOT of people that want to go to an ICC, VOA, or the weekly it gets clamped up on my screen then I will lag a little, and like most people would agree LAG SUCKS! So just something to make it more neat, like a window that would say there names, there whisper, and there class in a big window like the Blizzard Raid UI frame.

Xrystal nUI User and Supporter Forum posts: 5046 File comments: 262 Uploads: 24	I just spotted that same error message myself. Since 3.3 I and Scott of nUI have noticed a steady increase of Saved Variables not consistently being loaded when they should causing these values to show up as nil. In this instance it may be that or it may not as a few lines above that error the table is set up as ... db_defaults.expose = { combat = true, groupOnly = false, border = false, borderSize = 20, direction = 1, protect = 1, }; Which means the error on that line if(db.expose.combat) then I would have thought should read if(db_defaults.expose.combat) then Hopefully Pazza will be able to track down if it isn't something as simple as that. __________________ Info Panel IDs : http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...818#post136818 Version 5.07.27 contains the latest bugfixes. The thread http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/s...t.php?p=267112 makes an adjustment missed off of the patch update.

I'm having the same issue as DuTempe with the hangups, but I disabled another addon (WoWHeadLooter) and it doesn't hang so I'm not sure if it's a WIM thing or not. I, however, do get the following error when I log in:

Code:

Error occured in: Global

Message: ..\AddOns\WIM\Modules\Expose.lua line 29:

DuTempete A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	3.3.3 possible breakage Since the new patch, WoW hangs at loading screen the first time I run it every day. When I do manage to get past loading, I frequently get a window full of WIM errors, so I'm assuming WIM is the culprit. I can get past this by closing wow and restarting it, and I don't have any issues that I'm aware of during play. When I get the WIM errors again, I will post them. I just wanted to give the heads up, and see if anyone else with WIM was experiencing this. I know of one other person that is.

Davidlloyd83 A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 8 File comments: 30 Uploads: 0	Not a game breaking bug by any means but thought i would share anyway. When looking at say guild list and you choose to arrange by area (or level last online and so on ) you have to close the g list window and re-open it for that change to take effect, seems a little strange, But it is 100% wim causing it i spent the time disabling my addons one by one until i found it. But like i said nothing big just passing on the info
