pError   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Description:
pError is a simple addon to filter out spam in the UIErrorsFrame.
Its designed to be robust and easy to use.
If you're not exactly sure about what it does, take a look at the screenshot to the right.

The addon comes with few errors filtered out, but you are free to add as many as you like yourself.


FAQ:
How do I filter more errors?
Simple, just use the '/perror' slash command to add error strings.
Example: '/perror spell is not ready yet'

How do I remove error filters?
Just use the '/perror' slash command like you added it.

How can I see what errors I filter out?
Use '/perror list' and the saved list will be printed out.

How can I reset the whole list?
Use '/perror reset' to reset the database.

The only thing to figure out is that...the mod description hasn't changed since it first came out, but the mod itself has.

In the old pre-WoW 3.0, pre-Lich King days, you could set your own filters via slash commands in ErrorMonster. But in the current revision, there are *three* filters you can select in total (again, "Error messages", "Information messages" & "System messages"). Those three choices cannot be further altered other than choosing to see them in or out of combat and what Sink output to send them to.

Thus, pError here offers more flexibility (with more work) as you can specify any of your own text strings to filter. But pError filtered messages are no longer seen, they can't be redirected to a Sink output as ErrorMonster provides.

Different strokes, different folks.

As opposed to...the left place?

Normally do, did not have time yesterday. Thanks for the quick fix; pError works fine now.

Not the most detailed filtering, but it works.

IMPORTANT:
Update to rev 19 before 3.2, if not you will lose your blacklist database!

This is true, but they either have lacking features, are buggy, or flat out don't work. ErrorMonster no longer allows you to filter out errors (its all or nothing) and things like BigRed don't filter them, but put them in another frame entirely (and also is buggy, at least for me). Prat and Chatter's filtering options don't seem to hook into the UIErrorsFrame. If you know of any others that are working as intended, that would be great, otherwise, it looks like you're the only one out there interested in the UIErrorsFrame. XD

Is it possible to redirect the messages to say the chat frame, or just relocate the area that Blizzard decided to put the messages in?

Thanks!

A really nice addon!

A very nice addon, thank you for creating it

I love the fact that you can add and remove any error text that you want (case insensitive) and I also love the fact that it stores the config file in the account folder, so it's applied to all characters on that account.

RE: Spam not filtering

Found the addon conflicting with this. Oddly enough, it's _Corpse. Posting on their page as well.

Why don't you update?

Line 57 in the latest version is somewhere in the middle of the slashCommand function
