Social Shortcuts
- By
Quick party invite, request to join, whisper and add friend with Ctrl, Alt or Cmd click on players in chat, unit frames, raid frames, friends list, Who list, guild and LFG.
A WoW Forever addon that lets you whisper, invite, ask to join or befriend a player by holding a modifier key and left-clicking their name. It skips the right-click menu for the social actions you use most.
Features
- Whisper, Add Friend and Invite, each on its own modifier key.
- Works on names in chat, unit frames, the friends list, the Who list, the guild roster and Group Finder.
- Battle.net friends get a Battle.net whisper, and Invite reaches the character they play.
- Inviting into a full party offers to convert it to a raid.
- Invite works like the game's own menu entry: it invites when you can, suggests the player to your leader when you are in a group without lead, and asks to join when you are alone and they are in a group. Turn off asking to join with Invite Asks to Join in the settings.
Usage
- Hold the key for an action and left-click a player name.
- To change the keys, type
/sscor pick Social Shortcuts in the addon menu. - Pick a key for each action, or None to turn it off. Defaults restores the starting keys.
Starting keys:
- macOS: Option whispers, Control adds a friend, Command invites.
- Windows: Ctrl whispers, Alt invites. Add Friend starts on None, so give it a key if you want it.
The shortcuts are off in dungeons, raids and PvP matches, where the game hides player names.
In chat, a plain click on a name opens a whisper as usual, and a shortcut click runs only the shortcut. Shift stays the game's own: Shift-click on a name inserts it or runs a /who.
