Guild Data Plugin

First gotta say love nUI, keep up the awesome work!
As a Guild Master one Plugin I would love to see would be per the attached image. The guild MOTD could be pulled straight from WoW. The files would have a default image and configurable text to show the user where/how to change it. If you, or one of the guys that are familiar with coding nUI plugins could give it a go that would be fantastic! |
Theoretically it is possible. One could even make the Guild Image a button that pulled up the guild info pane I believe.
At the moment though I am not playing WoW otherwise I would jump at this. If, after I come back, sometime soon, and this still doesn't seem to have been added in any form I will take a stab at it. |

Apologies for the delay Wektis and thanks for reminding me about this via the guildchat addon page.
Is this what you had in mind ? If so, I'll finalise it and post it up. |
Xrystal... I really like that. Will it be customizable as far as the colors, logo, and/or font?
|
Sweet! thank you Xrystal thats a cool little plug-in :D

Its a carry over of the mageports plugin for the standalone plugin functionality and so I kept the font size changing and updateinterval changing. I added the custom image and custom message slash commands to round it off :D The WTF values are per character just in case you have different guild settings and thus different vent or whatever information you want displayed in the custom message screen. If the MOTD is changed it will reflect it within seconds and if you decide to turn off the image display for one reason or another it will reload the UI automatically as that is the only way it will reflect that change, whereas imagefile name changes take affect automatically. At the moment I haven't coded in the validation that the message text is less than the max displayable nor that the imagefile chosen exists but with the latter there probably isn't a way to do that anyway. |

Rofl, seeing as Petrah and Neural are liking it .. rofl, what do you think it needs :D
Okay, for your playing about pleasure rofl :D And hopefully you will find a few bugs or features you may want :D For now I have left in the nUI image and set up a default custom message in the localisation files. Although, come to think of it the image filename probably shouldn't need to be so may get changed before I upload an official copy. Have fun with it and throw me some ideas. |
Might be worth seeing if you can fetch the guild tabard for the image. Not sure if its doable but figured id toss that out there.
|
Yeah I'm not sure about that. I don't think I have ever found a function or set of variables that make up that image :(.

Ah, gots the problem. Guess I need to work some more on uiScaling. It should be taking it into account but it isn't. :(
Ah, I see what I'm doing wrong. Not setting the size of the image to scale but to a fixed value and everything ties to it. Edit: Okay, if you make the following changes to the nUI_InfoPanel_GuildInfo.lua file it should *crosses fingers* work with uiScaling. Regardless of scaling it will fit into the left 1/3 and top 1/2. Fontsize 10 seems to be too big for long motd messages but 8 seems too small so will probably have to play with scrolling frames again to make the 2 message frames a scrolling message box of some sort. Code:
resizeGuildInfo = function(height,width) |

Haven't had a chance to check it out yet but is there a way we could add the number of members online in there sorta like a ldb plug-in and have it show that list on mouse over as well as click to bring up the guild window. I know
http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info11205-Ara_Broker_Guild_Friends.html this one has a couple click features for the pop up window like click name whisper alt click invite right click set note that sorta thing. Anyway just some ideas if you wanted to through any of that in there :D |

Okay, added some more stuff to this. Looked at Arabroker though but thats a bit complex for me at the moment so will leave that fancy stuff till later.
I've made the image and guild motd area bigger and shrunk the gap around the frame to 5 instead of 10 allowing the custom message to allow more text as well. The Image is now a button holding a tooltip that will show the latest guild count info and left clicking it will bring up the guild frame itself. Tada!! Will await your comments and will upload once I have prettified the code and you feel it is ready as it is. |

Actually, forgot to reset the fontsize to fit the scaling so here's a better screenshot.
Also, looking at this I may have showing of the yellow borders an optional extra with them by default turned off. I'll also consider making the backgrounds of the message areas have an optional color setting which the user again can change. |

Okay, added more info to tooltip :D
Guild Name, Guild Leader and their online status. Seem to be useful information to know at a glance. |
Dou you have an official version of this yet Xrystal?
|
Aha, this is the thread .. rofl was looking for this the other day.
I haven't released it officially yet but it's bugged out with the new loading order changes in 5.06.17 so I'm gonna need to change it before releasing it. I've been busy on a couple of other of my addons so haven't really had any thought on this one at all in ages. |
