Cellular  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 10.0.001
by: totalpackage, drjebus, Sugarwing

Cellular is an instant messenger mod (for only whispers) based on the functionality of an old version of ForgottenChat.

YouTube Intro



Features:

  • Many appearance options
  • History log
  • A way to copy text
  • Reuse of the default chat editbox
  • Whispers shown in separate windows or a tab-based single window
  • Should work with most spam filter mods
  • ...and other basic IM features
  • !! New !! Language support for enUS / enGB and deDE


How to Use:
  • "/cellular", check Interface Options->AddOns, or right-click a window for options
  • Left-click a window to toggle the editbox
  • Left-click a tab to activate it
  • Shift-left-click and drag a window to move
  • Shift-left-click and drag bottom-right corner to resize
  • Right-click a tab for show/close/options dropdown
  • Middle-click a tab to close
  • Hold ctrl and close any window/tab to quick remove from history
  • Several convenient buttons (some require shift clicking for confirmation reasons)


Warnings:
  • If you have history enabled and notice that Cellular is using a lot of memory, you should cleanup your history entries using Cellular's history options.
  • If you're experiencing crashing due to memory errors, disable and clear your history.
  • If you cherish your history, you can back up the saved variables file and then delete it. You can view it in any text editor later. The location of the saved variables file is here:
    ...\WTF\Account\<Account Name>\<Server Name>\<Character Name>\SavedVariables\Cellular.lua

Alright thank you.

That still however doesn't explain why Cellular is now supressing other addons which should allow clickable links. That's my problem. I've no issues with it not being a feature, I'm just trying to figure out why the mods I am trying which do allow it aren't working when they once did.

I cannot figure out how to copy text. I see that its a feature listed. I just dont see the option on right click. Also clicking a a link does nothing. Something is broken perhaps?

Hello! Been using Cellular for a while now and love it far more than WIM! That said I think I've found a bug or something similar. Well, maybe not a bug, but something is off.

A few months ago Cellular would recognize links in whispers and allow me to click and copy them without using the copy text feature. One day it simply stopped working. Now I'm wondering if that was ever a feature of Cellular or if I was using something which overwrote it?

That said I've tried downloading another, seperate addon for link copying but it did not work for whispers with Celluar enabled. It seems as though something is surpresing it.

Also I'll mention that even without a seperat addon I can copy links out of every other channel, just not whispers. I've tried a couple different chat mods but still no luck.

Simply put I'd like to know if there is a way for me to enable this with Cellular?

Thank you!

Fast delete of text? Don't think that has ever been there, unless you mean fast delete from history. See instructions on description page for that.

The default whisper sound still fires, and Cellular supports sound from Prat and ChatSounds.

I like how you can use the Cellular windows to open their own editbox if you just want to focus on certain whispers (so thank you for that functionality, it's great for cy... err... in-depth tactical discussons).

Although as also mentioned by Jesamynm, it's getting very inconvenient when your editbox (that's supposed to go to /ra or whatever) suddenly sticks to a whisper window, very much appreciate the quick fix of your excellent addon!

Edit: caught a spelling error or two. You may keep the remaining ones

Just for another perspective..I actually prefer Cellular handling GM tells..if only it could prevent the custom Blizzard window from displaying & the stupid "A GM Is Messaging You" every tell..

Anyway what I wanted to say is..would you consider adding a 12h option to the timestamps?...
Cellular should no longer handle GM whispers in the latest release; I don't want to have to deal with blocking an entire Blizzard addon. Twelve hour format is already there for recent whispers. The history entries are still 24.

Not 100% sure what's causing that, but check out the latest version. I might have fixed it.
