WhisperWhisper

Version: 2.7a

by: Blacksen [More]

WhisperWhisper is a World of Warcraft add-on that helps players keep track of private conversations. Inspired by two popular add-ons, SLDataText and Whisperfu, this add-on creates an extremely lightweight frame that acts as a mouse-over portal to whisper conversations. More importantly, the add-on can be significantly customized to aesthetically match any UI by customizing colors, fonts, font sizes, and alerts. Additionally, WhisperWhisper uses the LibDataBroker library to directly integrate with several popular display add-ons such as ChocolateBar or Titan Panel.

Youtube Demo Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8YJTa0PA6k

Features:

Flash Alerts that can be customized with color, flash duration, textures, and combat status.
Import fonts using SharedMedia
Change the add-ons size and color to better "match" your UI.
Conversations saved between sessions
Completely functional with Battle.net/RealID
Alternate Display mode for people with several whisper conversations

As with all of my add-ons, I absolutely love feedback. Please let me know ANY feature requests or any bugs in the comments below. You can also reach me at [email protected], or send me a PM!

I was using WIM just for it's History Viewer... this is way better. Any chance of a way to up the limits? Maybe allow the slider to go crazy and do like the last 500 messages or even 1000? A conversation history system is priceless on this game!

Really sorry for the confusion :-\ A lot of people were telling me that the "Broker_" before the name threw them off.

In this addon, my friends whisper will appear in the addon's box AND my chat box. Maybe an option to only show whispers in addon frame ? Sorry if that was confusing

Glad you liked the demo video. I'll look into this feature - seems pretty easy to implement.

You can simply go into the "chat settings" by right clicking the chat tab and turn off whispers.

I checked the video and it's very nifty as well, thanks for posting it.

Thank you so much for adding the "Alt view" because that's exactly what I was looking for. I'm typically talking to 2-3 people at once. What I would like, however, is the ability to either click/rightclick whatever on a name and have a window pop up with the conversation that doesn't vanish. Like others I was an old user of Forgotten Chat, WIM and other IM like addons, but truth be told I love the simplicity of Whisper Whisper, but miss the ability to have the conversation stick where I can see it. I think you mentioned an idea over at Curse that I loved, having a static window with the convo and a sidebar with the different names of people I'm talking to.

Not sure how others would like this idea, but I'd also like an option to change what the LDB display reads as. It's nifty to see who last whispered you, but I'd rather have a "## Tells" display that tells me how many conversations I have going at once. I've found that the "click to whisper" isn't needed, at least for me, because I make liberal use of the "whisper reply" keybind blizzard has (Default is R, but I always change it to backspace. And you can rotate with the shift key between who you've been sending whispers to). I'm more interested in making sure i haven't 'lost' a conversation and someone isn't waiting for me to reply to them.

Just ideas to throw out there.

Again, thanks for making this addon. I was dreading going back to WIM but this is SOO much simpler!

**EDIT**

I tried the frame flash notifications and there is one small bug: I had turned the frame off because I use Chocolate Bar, but decided to try the 'notifications' anyway to see what happened. It made the non-LDB frame appear, but other than limited mouseover and being able to move it I couldn't interact with it. Wish there was a way to get the notifications to work with a LDB display and not be limited to the 'frame'. In any case, might want to have it that if the "hide frame" is checked that the notifications don't work at all or something. I had to go in and un-check, re-check the 'hide frame' option to fix it.

I just installed WW, and it logged a couple of whispers from my buddy I was partied with. I logged off that character and logged another toon. The WW frame was still displayed with my buddy's info, but when I right-clicked, this error appeared:
