Description
Favorite Contacts is a simple addon that adds buttons to your mailbox for easy access of your favorite contacts. If you click a contact button, the recipient of the new mail is directly set to the contact name.
You can add a new contact to your favorite list just by double clicking on a free slot or by using the context menu. The favorite contact contains the contact name and a user specified icon. To delete an existing favorite contact, drag it to a free space. You can delete or change existing contacts also via the context menu. It's possible to change the position of a favorite contact with drag and drop.
All addon settings and contacts are shared between all characters of the current realm.
Have you found any bug or do you have some suggestions? Please let me know on curseforge. Also, you can help me to localize it into your language.
Thank you soooo much for this addon. I love how lightweight and easy to use it is. <3
Be careful using this update in retail -- it somehow reverted my preferences back to a much older version, including alts that I deleted some time, ago, forcing me to redo about 50% of my list from scratch. Restoring prefs from a recent backup didn't help.
Hello!
This was one of my favorite addons since I found it, and I am really missing it in classic.
Might there be any possibility of making it compatible with classic?
In reply to aisenfaire:
Aaand here it is. :)
But to be honest, I'm not playing classic actively. So if there are bugs or issues with the classic version than please open a ticket here for me. Thank you.
In reply to eXochron:
Yay, thanks so much!
I've been using Tradeskillmaster for mailing but it's very bloated and adds a lot of features I don't need or want, so I was really happy to discover this wonderful little addon!
Do you still have plans to add specific items to characters for auto mailing? I saw that in your issues, and that would be really nice to have.
If not (or even if so!) would it be possible to add another column for mailing, now that you can have up to 50 characters on a single server?
Thanks for your work on this, it was what I was looking for. <3
In reply to katarina026:
Thank you for your comment. I know I got a little sidetracked in the past months. So this project was a bit left by itself. Maybe I can continue here soon.
In the meantime please check out the /fc command. There are some more customisation options available. (I was actually planning for some proper Interface settings.)
will you be adding the new races to this ?
i know there just icons but it'd be nice =)
In reply to TheMadDoctor:
I could add those race emblems, if you like. I just didn't found them particularly usefull.
In reply to TheMadDoctor:
Any way to prevent this addon from triggering the new 3 second timer? If I type in names with autocomplete I don't get the timer, but if I use the addon's buttons I always get the timer. Kinda removes the point of the addon... :(
I don't get it. What timer do you mean? There is none built in Favorite Contacts.
Nevermind, fixed it. If your realm has a space in it you now need to add the space (like Character-Steamwheedle Cartel instead of Character-SteamwheedleCartel) or else you will get an annoying warning that "this might be someone you don't know".
When i have this addon installed and i try to join random BG i got this error
ADDON_ACCTION_FORBIDDEN FavoriteContancts JoinBattlefield()
And UI ask to disable the addon, i'm unable to join random bg unless disabled this addon.
I know this error from another addon (Notes). From my perspective the Queuing-Button from Blizzard seems broken. It just blames custom addons instead. I can assure you that I don't want to block any of youre PvP activity. ;)
Nevertheless I'm giong to look into it: https://wow.curseforge.com/projects/favorite-contacts/issues/4
I would love to see this feature implemented...
Add a slash command to toggle between the current mode and this new one:
ClickToSend
When the icon gets clicked - the recipient is set AND the mail with all it's attachments gets automatically sent at that very moment.
Is is possible to add this please? :)
Thanks for your suggestion.
In version 1.1.5 and later you can enable or disable the ClickToSend mode with following slash command:
Yes, ok... you just made me install the addon =)
thank you!
Edit: I realize now that I must have not fully read the description here. Yet you have been patient enough o answer my question anyhow. I thank you for that. Good on ya` :)
Thank you for adding the new icon. :)
I've been looking for an addon like this for years! Would you consider adding a description box for each contact? So you can put in notes like what guild they're in, or whose alt they belong to, etc.. That would make this addon 100% perfect!
