Class Colors  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 8.0.0.1
by: Phanx, Akkorian

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.
Class Colors lets you change class colors without breaking parts of the Blizzard UI.
Class Colors erlaubt das Ändern der Klassenfarben ohne Interferenzen mit dem Blizzard UI.
Cambiar los colores de clase sin romper la interfaz de usario de Blizzard.
Mudar as cores de classes sem quebrar a interface do usuário da Blizzard.
Изменение цветов класса не вмешиваясь в Blizzard UI.

It is supported by many popular addons, and also applies your custom colors to all parts of the Blizzard UI that are normally class-colored. If you want to colorize more parts of the Blizzard UI, check out yClassColors by yleaf.

Type “/classcolors” for options, or open the Class Colors panel in the Interface Options window.

Language Support

Works in all languages. The options panel is completely translated into English, Deutsch, Español, Português, and Русский; and partially translated into Français, Italiano, 한국어, 简体中文, and 繁體中文. You can add or update translations for any language on the CurseForge project page.

Feedback

Post a ticket on GitHub or post a comment on this page.

Reporting a bug? Please make sure you have the latest version of the addon from this page, and then include detailed instructions I can follow to reproduce the bug myself, whether the bug still happens when all other addons are disabled, and the exact text of the accompanying error message, if any.

How to make your addon support Class Colors

Basically, any time your addon would read a value from the RAID_CLASS_COLORS table, just look for a CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS table and read from it instead.

If your addon uses a local upvalue for RAID_CLASS_COLORS, or builds a local cache table of class colors, you should update your upvalue or cache in response to the PLAYER_LOGIN event, and register for a callback to be notified when the user changes a class color.

Please do not check for the !ClassColors addon by name — eg. with GetAddOnInfo or IsAddOnLoaded — or set !ClassColors as a dependency for your addon. Use the methods described above.

See the CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS documentation for more details!

Version 5.4.2.90
  • Added a NotifyChanges method for addons that provide their own class color options UI, but not their own CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS implementation, and want to propigate their changes to other addons through the CUSTOM_CLASS_COLORS system.
  • Added support for female-specific class names to the GetClassToken method, though I suspect nobody has ever actually used this method.

Version 5.2.0.80
  • Updated for WoW 5.2

I haven't actually looked around to see if 5.2 adds any new UI parts that need to be colored. If I notice any, or someone reports any, I'll post another update.

Well thanks for pointing me in the right direction, it's just that there really aren't any addons that do status bar color changes and this seemed like the best place to ask.

This addon is called Class Colors for a reason. I have no plans to extend it to change reaction colors, reputation colors, power colors, or any other colors. The whole reason this addon exists is that you can't just overwrite values in the normal class colors table, or parts of the default UI stop working. That problem does not exist for other color tables, so you can just overwrite the values directly, and other addons don't need to include any special code to support it.

Reaction colors can be changed by overwriting the GameTooltip_UnitColor function and/or overwiting values in the FACTION_BAR_COLORS table. If you need help, post in the Lua/XML Help forum.

What I really need is a way to change reaction colors. That blinding neon blue for friendly player is a real eyesore.

@Stanzilla:

Please don't post 500 lines of local variables and other junk in a comment. I deleted it, because it's not relevant (only the actual error message is relevant in 9999999999999/10000000000000 cases) and I don't want to have to scroll through it.

Anyway, that error can only occur if one of your other addons is doing something wrong, and calling ChatFrameN:AddMessage without actually providing a message. I know AtlasLoot used to cause that error years ago. I don't know what addon might be causing the problem for you (it may even be AtlasLoot) but it is caused by some other addon.

I posted a bug about the PaperDollFrame level being broken. Not sure if it tells you when you have new bugs on here or not. There's also a fix for it with it to make your life easier.
