Player online

[Seamoon]

Hello
I was just wondering if there is any way to check if player is online before sending him an addon message.

Because if they're not it results into: No player named 'xyz' is currently playing. Which is kinda annoying, and I could just stop sending the message if I knew that they're off

That won't work without a valid unit token "target", "focus" or a unitname only if it's in the party / raid etc.

Your only option is with SendWho() or the clever trick Saiket is using in _Corpse with the friendlist.
