LFG Chat Filter v1.7.6 (Release)

(Changelog 1.6.6 → 1.7.6)

🚀 New Features

  • Integrated AddOn Options Panel
    Now configurable under ESC → Options → AddOns → LFG Chat Filter or with /lfgcf.
    All filters, channels, and highlighting options in one menu.

  • Highlighting System

    • Toggle highlighting separately for LFG and LFM

    • Choose from multiple highlight colors (Gold, Green, Cyan, Pink, Orange, White)

    • Automatically applies to allowed chat messages

  • Enhanced Minimap Button

    • Left-click toggles filtering

    • Right-click opens dropdown for quick pattern and channel controls

    • Drag to reposition around the minimap

⚙️ Improvements

  • Major code cleanup and re-architecture for Classic MoP (API 50501).

  • Options and SavedVariables now self-repair if missing or corrupt.

  • Unified filter logic for accurate keyword detection:
    LFG, LFM, LF1M/LF2M, LF Healer, LF Tank, LF DPS, and generic LF <...>.

  • More precise highlighting and color application without breaking other chat addons.

🧩 UI and Usability

  • New “Apply” and “Defaults” buttons in options panel.

  • Improved visual layout with clear section headings: General, Channels, Patterns, Highlight.

  • All checkboxes named and safe (no more missing label errors).

  • Dropdown menus in the panel now sync correctly with SavedVariables.

🐞 Bug Fixes

  • Fixed duplicate Options panel entries from multiple registrations.

  • Fixed nil concatenation errors on highlight load.

  • Fixed syntax and EOF issues from earlier experimental builds.

  • Fixed missing minimap icon or off-center placement.

  • Fixed right-click menu not opening after reload.

  • Ensured filter and highlight systems load in the correct order with no UI errors.

🧠 Developer and Maintenance

  • Streamlined code and removed redundant hooks.

  • Replaced double registration logic with a single, safe PLAYER_LOGIN registration.

  • Compatible with both Settings API and legacy Interface Options system.

  • Added proper version and metadata for CurseForge distribution.
