Broker LFG  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 7.3.5.0
by: Phanx [More]

I am no longer developing or maintaining World of Warcraft addons. I haven't played in years, and don't have the time or interest to continue working on addons for a game I don't play anymore. If you are an addon author interested in continuing one of my addons, please see https://phanx.net/addons/. If you are an addon user, sorry, but there won't be any more fixes or updates from me.
Basic LFG button for your DataBroker display.
  • Click to open the Dungeon Finder.
  • Right-Click to open the PVP window.
  • Middle-Click, or Shift-Click, to open the Pet Journal.
  • Alt-Click to open the Raid Finder.
  • Ctrl-Click to open the Scenarios window.
While you are queued, or in an LFG/LFR group, battleground, or scenario, right-click opens the menu instead, and you can use Shift-Right-Click to open the PVP window.
Known Issues
Due to Blizzard restrictions, you will not be able to leave battleground queues while using this addon, except by waiting until the queue pops and clicking the Decline button on the dialog. I have no ETA on a resolution, so don't bother asking, unless you are a Blizzard developer with a solid ETA on when you are going to allow addons to leave battleground queues in response to a hardware event and/or fix your oversensitive dropdown menu system.
Feedback
Post a comment. Please note that I consider this addon to be complete, and will probably not add any new features.

If you are posting about a problem, please include the name of your DataBroker display addon, and the actual error message.
Language Support
Works in all locales. Translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Русский, 한국어, 简体中文, and 正體中文.

To add or update translations for any locale, enter them on the Broker LFG localization page on CurseForge, and then send me a PM here or on CurseForge to let me know that you’ve made changes. If you don’t have a Curse account and don’t want to create one, you can PM me your translations instead. Thanks!

  • Updated for game changes (i.e. PlaySound errors)

Version 7.1.0.0
  • Updated for WoW 7.1

Version 7.0.3.1

That "new" version on Curse is the same version that's been available here on WoWI for 19 days...

Hey Phanx I have a small issue with this and maybe I am just missing something but I did a Battle Ground today and wanted to leave so usually you would right click and select leave battle ground. However the option does not appear as the addon lets you "right-click to open the Raid Browser window".

It lets you right click when you are in a raid finder group to leave but just not for BG's. What can be done to fix this? Thank you for your time and effort you put into your projects

I don't know, as I haven't done a battleground since someone dragged me to one back in the Level 60 days, but I'd have to say the current behavior is intended. Broker LFG is only meant to handle PVE queues, and does not include any code to detect or do anything with PVP queues or zones. I believe the default UI shows separate minimap buttons for PVE and PVP queues, as well. If you want to do PVP stuff, there is probably at least one Broker plugin that replaces the default PVP button.

No since MoP they have merged the old pvp icon with the LFG icon now so it will be a problem for anyone using this addon who needs to do PVP unfortunately. Sorry to be the one with the bad news and I would have never of noticed either since I rarely do PVP but decided to pick it up again.

You should see for yourself if you get the time.

Here is a screenshot while using the blizzard UI:

Do you get the same error when all other addons are disabled, including your Broker display(s)?

I get this error as well. I disabled everything but my broker display, which is the newest version of Docking Station. I'm also using the newest version of broker_LFG. Thanks.

If you are posting about a problem, please include the version number of Broker LFG you are using; the name and version number of your DataBroker display addon; whether you are on live, PTR, or beta servers; what region and language you play WoW in, and what the current patch in your region is; you character's level, class, spec, and faction; the exact text of the first error message captured by BugSack; a detailed description of the problem; and what steps I can follow to reproduce the problem myself. The more information you can give me, the faster I can find and fix your problem!

I'm on Live, North American region, patch 5.1, English. Doesn't matter what toon I use. I have the current version of broker_LFG and current version of Docking Station (as found on WoW Interface). I get the standard Blizzard taint message when I attempt to leave a queue for a battleground by right clicking and selecting "Leave Queue". I get this with only Broker_LFG and Docking Station enabled.

The following is the BugSack message for this error:

Code:
1x [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn "Broker_LFG" tried to call the protected function "func()".
!BugGrabber-r188\BugGrabber.lua:587: in function <!BugGrabber\BugGrabber.lua:587>
<in C code>
FrameXML\QueueStatusFrame.lua:404: in function "func"
FrameXML\UIDropDownMenu.lua:710: in function "UIDropDownMenuButton_OnClick"
<string>:"*:OnClick":1: in function <string>:"*:OnClick":1

Locals:
nil
It does NOT generate an error for the dungeon finder "Leave Queue", only the battleground "Leave Queue".

That means some addon tainting the dropdown menu system. Since I have no such issue with Bazooka and 150+ other addons running, and you say the issue occurs with only Broker_LFG and DockingStation enabled, I'd have to point the finger at DockingStation. This would not be the first time DockingStation has been a problem (it's previously had major issues supporting parts of the DataBroker standard) so I'm not really surprised. Try with another Broker display and, if the problem does not occur, report the issue to the author of DockingStation. If it does occcur with Bazooka or some other display, let me know.
