Mhm, seems to be related to the guild achievement thing that comes with cataclysm. Aka more guild rep/xp with a certain number of people from your guild in party/raid.

Anyway, I can't reproduce this easily, since I'm not really active in groups of any kind, definitely not guild groups.

What would help is the frame name of the the guild's flag or a little time to dig into this. Maybe the default blizzard code can reveal some more info on this. I'll see. Thanks for the pointing out the issue.

@Kendian
Thanks.
If you are in a raid with 80% of it being guildies the flag changes and is reset back to the location of the blizzard minimap.

No guildies:

Thanks! Deleting layout-local reset the map, and once I moved it to the top right corner, I could click anywhere to get things to work. *but* middle click is still Calendar and right click is still Tracking. This doesn't bother me, though!

@Seajewel
As for the clicking on different toons. Well, I'll try to reproduce it. I never encountered this myself. If you encounter this issue again, please try to get the frames name you mouseover in the area where clicking doesn't work. There might be a hidden/empty frame interfering. Not sure which one this could be, though.

Btw, deleting the folder shouldn't do anything, except for the issue depending on a certain setting, which I don't believe it does. The only thing that might make sense to delete would be the local-cache.txt in your characters WTF folder. It stores the position after you moved the map.

I seemed to be having the same problem as Seajewel, with clicks not working on a certain character. As per your suggestion I deleted layout-local.txt in his WTF folder and it works just fine now.

The name of the minimap frame was called 'MinimapCluster' while I had the problem, but after fixing it the frame is called 'Minimap.' Hope that helps somehow.

I'm having weird bugs with this version. Middle click opens calendar and right click opens tracking, which is fine, but.. it doesn't work on most of my toons. On some, it only works if I use the clicks at the bottom of the minimap. On some it doesn't work at all. On some it works anywhere on the minimap. I've tried deleting the dminimap folder twice and installing fresh, same problem, altho sometimes it fixes the issue on some of the characters. I assume it probably is a conflict with something else, but just in case it isn't.. any ideas? Love this simple minimap mod and don't want to give it up!

on the newest version middle mouse click opens calendar and right click opens tracking meny, easy to fix but still.
any chance you would add the option for changing border textures without huge effort to mess up the code?

Current time format is (24)hour : minutes .. take a look at the link I posted below ... listy. The list there indicates that hour = %H and minutes = %M. Now search through dminimap.lua for %H and %M and replace it with what you want. Again, what you want is on that list.

%I for 12 hour display
%p for am/pm

combined: %I %M %p

Not that hard, is it?
