Cross realm feature request

[warlockenjoyer]

Can you admins make it possible to add players to ignore list while inside battleground (cross realm)? At the moment that is not possible, maybe having different ignore lists one for the main realm and another for the cross realm? the option just doesnt work inside cross realm, there is ways around it and still being able to ignore indirectly moving chat boxes away but would be better with the direct option, thanks

1st the macro to get an actual target name (target > press a macro > select the name > copy)

/run local name = UnitName("target");ChatFrame_OpenChat("/w "..name.."", chatFrame);

2nd the code to paste somewhere in one of your addons that you are using or read this https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Create_a_WoW_AddOn_in_15_Minutes (use Interface: 50400 for your TOC file)

local AuthorTable = {
"name1","name2","name3",
"name4",
"name5","name6",
}
local AuthorFilter = function(self, event, msg, author)
	for i = 1, #AuthorTable do
		if string.match(author, AuthorTable[i]) then
			return true
		end
	end
end
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_CHANNEL", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_PARTY", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_PARTY_LEADER", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_RAID", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_RAID_LEADER", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_RAID_WARNING", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_INSTANCE_CHAT", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_INSTANCE_CHAT_LEADER", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_SAY", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_YELL", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_WHISPER", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_EMOTE", AuthorFilter)
ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter("CHAT_MSG_TEXT_EMOTE", AuthorFilter)

 

Simply add new names in AuthorTable (follow the format)

Not sure if the code is well optimized especially for heavy shit that sometimes occur in the chat.

And i would recommend to disable speech clouds above players as well (can toggle somewhere in your interface options).

 

updated with some links

1) https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/API_ChatFrame_AddMessageEventFilter

2) https://wowpedia.fandom.com/wiki/Category:API_namespaces/C_ChatInfo (some API are not exists in mop client - read patch changes for every API at first)

in the code of the file with the extension .lua

open with notepad++

 

if you are interested, find out what lua is - there is google. It is a very simple scripting programming language.

 

I think u heard about LUA SCRIPTS

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lua_(programming_language)

 

 

Example in my computer: C:\PandaWoW 5.4.8\Interface\AddOns\infBanner\infBanner.lua

lua file path

it can be any lua file from the addons folder

anyway, couldn't devs make the ignore function work inside cross realm?

anyway' date=' couldn't devs make the ignore function work inside cross realm?[/quote']

I don't think it's necessary for many people. And if necessary - there is a crutch in the form of a lua addon

But ur need the opinion of the developer / administrator on this matter
