Nick Prefix Remover

1.0.1 - 2026-09-03

Added

• A standalone, movable configuration window opened with /npr config.
• A matching entry in Options -> AddOns -> Nick Prefix Remover.
• Options and README pages in both configuration views.
• A standard Blizzard-style Close button in the standalone window.
• README documentation for installation, slash commands, recognised formats, and limitations.
• Development notes documenting the target Lua runtime, addon architecture, chat-filter rules, and release validation.

Changed

• Reworked the configuration layout for clearer spacing and larger text.
• Replaced the original tab artwork with compact Blizzard panel buttons for page navigation.
• Expanded the prefix parser to accept whitespace around a nickname and its colon.
• Optimised chat filtering by reusing the event lookup and prefix pattern tables.
• Kept chat-filter registration order stable when channel settings are toggled, improving coexistence with other chat-filter addons.
• Added LoadSavedVariablesFirst to the addon TOC metadata.
• Replaced the global options API with the private addon namespace shared through the TOC loader.
• Consolidated recurring UI construction into label, value, and button helper functions.

Fixed

• Fixed the configuration panel's access to the main addon's database and filter-refresh functions.
• Fixed Settings UI opening by using Blizzard's numeric category ID instead of a string ID.
• Fixed filtering for nickname formats such as ( krix ) : message.
• Fixed SavedVariables initialization so an invalid database value or invalid setting type is restored to a safe default.
