Purpose
Are you having an hard time remembering which of your toon should receive herbs (but only a certain type), while another one need ore but also pelts? And pet charm.. where am I storing them?
Functions
Mail Commander allows you to define a per character list of needs which wil be displayed when you open the sendmail panel allowing you to send all requested items or just some of them.
You can make this selection permament, disabling some kind of items, or just cherry pick each time
You can also use the "Send all" button to have all enabled items sent with a single click
Other Addons
Mail Commander can and will use data from Datastore, so I recommend installing at least:
If you installed Altoholic (and if you are in the alt business you probably had) you already have all DataStore addons, so just check you enabled them
Absolutely helpful!!!
When I change line 636 in MailCommander.lua, it works!
And do you know why does it show "mailcommander was not able to migrate your database" in version 2.0.0-beta-1 when I log in to the game?
Will check datastore, but I probably will add a switch to ignore Datastore at all, it's giginv a lot of issues
I can't even describe the time this addon has saved me in loading screens alone! :D I've been watching the Categories tab for a little while now (super excited about the idea of it!) and I just came to ask, is there any clarification you might be able to give on "coming soon"?
In reply to Ophilla:
Catergories is in the 2.0 alpha version, I'll probably move it to Beta shortly
Can't send mails with latest update.
In reply to wolf1972:
No mail at all or just to some character? Last update had only a change in the .toc file
In reply to alarthedark:
no mail at all, even downgrade didn't solve the problem. And cant select any other char than current logged in one anymore.
There was a bug in datastore_characters recently with faction and translations. Currently in MailCommander logged in char is "Allianz" (german) and all other are "Alliance". So maybe cross-faction mail sending might be blocked by your addon ?
In reply to wolf1972:
as datastore_characters uses localized faction you could change line 636 in your addon to fix it:
_,thisFaction=UnitFactionGroup("player")this will return localize faction instead of english faction.
In reply to wolf1972:
mailcommander uses its data over datastores one if possible, you could try and log all your toons, it could fix informations about them
Is there a way to lock and/or move the send frame? Currently it appears under my bags which bagnon opens automatically when I click the mailbox... I've tried finding movers for this with MoveAnything but it seems to just go back to the original spot when you open mail again. Thanks in advance, always loved Garrison Commander. ^^
Since the recent update (not the 2.0.0 alpha, a previous update), this addon clashes with orderhallcommander. If this addon is activated, the orderhallcommander does not work (cross-checked to identify the clashing effect). And the most recent alpha version is not working (even after disabling the orderhallcommamder).
In reply to Tiger234567:
As usual, thanks for the ime you spenti writing here, but please be a bit more specific: doyou see errors? Od did an addon just disappeared?
In reply to alarthedark:
update: after the new update just rolled out, both addons can function as normal, didnot test alpha version though, thanks for the help.
The mailcommander works as usual, but the orderhallcommander just disappeared, leaving blank ui boxes and all icons and functions gone. For alpha version, there is no UI showing up, you can call it disappeared, but without any sign of 'i have installed this addon'.
In reply to Tiger234567:
Indeed was a library conflict,
Please download mailcommander 1.1.4 or 2.0.0-aplha.2
Thank you so much for pointing it out
In reply to Tiger234567:
Thanks for letting me know mate.I love people who raises bugs but I love even more people who test fixes and tell me "It worked" :)
2.0.0 alpha 1 is out!
Please backup your data before using it (I think Curse client has an option for it, too)
Love the addon, was searching for something like it for the family to setup easily to get their stuff to the appropriate crafter or seller.
I'd love to see a selection box similar to the category implementation in this addon: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/gathering-tracker/screenshots for ease of setup (ie declare all Shadowlands Herbs to char A, all SL mining to char C and all BfA herbs to char B, etc)
In reply to AdamIrv:
It's the filter screenshot in https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/gathering-tracker/screenshots that I was referring to btw. Very neatly done there
In reply to AdamIrv:
In the alpha I am about to release, you can create custom categories, which should solve your needs
NEWS!
I am working on some improvements, expect an alpha release really soon
I am also considering removing the min max management, because I dont feel it's so useful and it makes variables file (and mempory requirement) quite huge.
Any thought?
