Addons description


Features
  • Character/Account names : Because in your guild chat you won't see @JohnTheRipper but Bugnark gro-Moshul, pChat replace account names with Character Names. Customizable by guild, groupe, normal chat. PlayerName@AcountName and @AccountName/Playername available too.

  • Copy Text : You want to copy your chat ? Right click a chat message to put it to the chat editbox, and Ctrl+C to copy it to your clipboard then. Or open the copy dialog where you ca filter by chat channel and categories.
  • Search copy Text : You want to search your chat history and current chat? Open the copy dialog and click on the search button to show the search UI. Right clicking found chat entries can be copied to the chat editbox again (CTRL+C to copy it to your clipboard then). The chat channel and categories filters will change the chat search UI once you applied the filters.
  • Anti-Spam : Bored of LFG, WTB and other flooding players ? AntiSpam without any configuration

  • Resizing Chatbox : Got a Full HD screen or more ? So let's resize your chatbox up to fullscreen

  • Timestamps : For the ones who like precision, now all messages got their timestamps. Hightly customizable to show your desired format. 11:43 PM or 23:43:12, choose the one you like.

  • No more whisper missed : A whisper : A sound. Visual
    notification if you want it too.

  • [21:08] [pChat] [Ayantir]: Because chat should be easy to read : Timestamps, From Info and messages can be colorized as you like

  • Rename your Guilds Chans : Guild Tag or Officer one, each channel can be renamed

  • French / German translations : Russian & Spanish Translations too

  • Exit /g1, /say, /o1 : Click on chat, timestamp, channel name, and pChat will set your channel to the one you clicked on

  • Chat history : No more chat wiped when you'll reloadUI. Also include a restore history when you logout, get kicked or disconnect.

  • New Fonts embedded : 15 new fonts if you don't like the default one. And you can add the one you want too.

  • Darker chat window : If your eyes need a little help to improve your chat reading, and if you don't like background it can also be always transparent.
  • Define your own messages via /msg slash command : Define messages (long text) which you are able to quick post using a !<tag>, e.g. !ts + return key in the chat editbox: Will post the TeamSpeak server host/IP and login data information to chat. Often used with !ga to post guild advertisement texts.
  • Chat context menu (at names and/or messages) :
    -Setting: Show @AccountName/CharacterName (based on the chat channel and your pChat configuration for that chat channel! if you have not enabled @AccountName but only characterName it can be that @AccountName is missing!) in the context menu headline
    -Setting: Teleport to player (if in guild, group or on friends list)
    -Setting: Send mail to player
    -Setting:Ignore will ask before ignoring, with a Yes/No dialog (works in "Friends list" and "Report player" too as you try to ignore a player).

  • Added teleport slash commands :
    [color]
    /pchattpgl Port to group leader
    /tpgl Port to group leader
    /pchattppl Port to group leader
    /pchattpgm <name> Port to group member <1st found partial or full @displayName or character name>

    /tpg <guildIndex 1 to 5ptional> <name> Port to guild's <guildIndex> member <1st found partial or full @displayName or character name>
    [/color]
  • Integrated addon "Chat Mentions" and other features : Enable sounds and visual mentioning of your character/account.
    Show the currently typed character count at the chat window header bar.
    Show the last time you have posted something to the zone chat at the chat window header bar.

Options menu to setup the addon : In Settings > Addon Settings > pChat ("Extensions" in French and "Erweiterungen" in German)



Known Issues :
-Do not use a keybind that uses Alt. For example, Alt+Shift+x, Alt+Ctrl+x, all keybinds without Alt are good.
-If you get an error message first read and apply the information from above, written below the headline
After updating pChat please be sure to check the subfolder "lib" is not there anymore. If it is still there: Delete it!


Any problems : Please let me know with a comment or a PM.
Please read the sticky comment (first comment) before posting a bug!


Important information:
Chat addons cannot work properly if the CrownStore is open! This is due to ZOs restrictions to protect the crown store against changes via addons and affects the chat as well.


Other chat addons
FCOChatTabBrain: Auto switch multiple chat tabs upon incoming messges, remember last chat channel at each tab, automatically change chat channels to last incoming one upon pressing <chat start> (RETURN) key, redirect whisper messages, play sound notifications on messages (keywords, friends, group, leaders, guilds), auto switch to group, and many more features.


If your chat addon needs to be compatible with pChat
The CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter only allows 1 function for each EVENT_CHAT_* callback function!
If you assign it new you'll overwrite exisitng ones!
So ALWAYS please check if any other chat addon is enabled, add these other known chat addons to your manifest txt ## OptionalDependsOn: list so the other addons load before your addon, and afterwards "post hook", or manually post hook, the other message formatter callback function -> See example for pChat below.
ATENTION: pChat uses the EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED callback to register the message formatters! If you want to post hook it you MUST do that after your own EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED callback! Using EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED will make pChat overwrite your callback function again (and it's no good to use EVENT_ADD_ON_LOADED here as the chat is ready first after first called EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED)!

Example code for your EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED callback function, for the chat message formatter of EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL
Lua Code:
  1. local function myChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver(channelID, from, text, isCustomerService, fromDisplayName)
  2.         --your chat EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL callback function
  3.     end
  4.     --For the example OR - Wrapper function for the existing EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL callbackFunction    
  5.     local function myOnChatMessageChannelWrapper(messageText)
  6.        local messageTextNew = messageText
  7.        --Do whatever you need with the messageText passed in from original function
  8.        return messageTextNew
  9.     end
  10.  
  11.  
  12.     if pChat == nil then
  13.         --pChat is not loaded: Add your own handler to the CHAT_ROUTER
  14.         --I'd always check if any other chat addon is active though and maybe thus always add the code below, even if pChat is not loaded
  15.         --as it will keep exisitng callback functions of other addons or event add to the original vanilla chat formatter callback function
  16.         CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL, myChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver)
  17.     else
  18.         --pChat is loaded
  19.         --!!!ATTENTION!!!
  20.         --Do the following at EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED after pChat has set CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL, pChatChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver)
  21.         --Get all chat formatters. Table formatters will contain the different chat event entries, like EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL now
  22.         local formatters = CHAT_ROUTER:GetRegisteredMessageFormatters()
  23.         --Get the chat callback function for EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL of pChat
  24.         local originalpChatFormatter = formatters[EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL]
  25.         if originalpChatFormatter then
  26.  
  27.            --Either:
  28.             --Post Hook pChat's EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL callbackFunction by re-applying the own handler function
  29.             --which first calls pChat's function, and then your own code
  30.             CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL, function(...)
  31.                 local messageTextOfpChatHandler = originalpChatFormatter(...)
  32.                 --Do something with messageTextOfpChatHandler if you need to
  33.                 return myChatHandlersMessageChannelReceiver(...)
  34.             end)
  35.  
  36.           --Or:
  37.           --As the callback function of EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL returns  Instead of a manual posthook your could also define your own "wrapper" function around the original function
  38.           CHAT_ROUTER:RegisterMessageFormatter(EVENT_CHAT_MESSAGE_CHANNEL , function(...)
  39.                     return myOnChatMessageChannelWrapper(originalpChatFormatter (...))
  40.                 end)          
  41.  
  42.         end
  43.     end

## v10.0.2.2 ## 2021-06-22
-Fixed error message for new pChat users, which had no SV to migrate to server dependent values yet

## v10.0.2.1 ## 2021-06-20
-Fixed ChatMentions global leaking variable "news"
-Moved ChatMentions code to subtable pChat.ChatMentions

## v10.0.2.0 ## 2021-06-19
-Changed the SavedVariables to Server dependent ones: Means NA and EU server will save different settings and histories now.
Your current "non-server dependent" settings will be automatically copied to the server you login (NA, EU, PTS).
On-screen and chat messages, as well as LibDebugLogger messages (in the DebugLogViewer UI if you use this) will show you what was migrated and as it finished (2 automatic reloadUIs should happen during the migration process).

Attention: You are able to delete the non-server dependent (old) SavedVariables, to clean up the SV file s ize and increase the loading times, by using the chat slag command /pchatdeleteoldsv
BUT: Do NOT use this command before having logged in to ALL of the servers you play on! These non-server dependent settings are used as the copy base for the different servers. Copying SV from e.g. server NA to EU is not possible! So FIRST login to each server you play on, enable pChat and the dependencies, watch the screen for the migration messages and the reloaduis until it says finished.
After having migrated all servers you can use the slash command to delete the old SV file contents.

## v10.0.1.5 ##
-Changed backup reminder dialog to show gamepad dialog as well

## v10.0.1.4 ##
-Updated API to Blackwood
-Fixed settings menu to show the new CTRL+backspace settings proper: Chat options -> Chat Window -> Chat edit box
-Updated dependency versions
-Added a "Backup your SavedVariables" reminder. It will be shown once weekly or if the game's APIversion changes.
Please backup your SV at least once weekly as the pChat SV structures will change in the future and if migration will fail you will need a file to go back to.

You are able to disable the SV backup reminder in the settings at the Backup submenu.

## v10.0.1.3 ##
-Removed LibMainMenu
->You will need to install LibMainMenu-2.0 now!
-Added new setting to use CTRL+backspace to delete a whole word in the chat edit box (Thanks to Dolgubon)


## v10.0.1.2 ##
-Fixed copy dialog
-Changed copy dialog to disable filter checkboxes and labels for non filtered chat channels

## v10.0.1.1 ##
-Updated Russian translations -> Thanks to ivann339!
-Fixed chat copy dialog messing up the HUD/HUD_UI scenes
-Added keybind: "Copy whole chat (dialog)"
-Updated API version
-Updated needed library LibMainMenu to version 9

## v10.0.1.0 ##
Fixed
Copy dialog (still scene bug active)

Changed
-API version to Markarth
-Dependency versions needed: LibMainMenu v9, LibCustomMenu v694

Added
-Chat mentions by Coorbin, thanks for including this into pChat!


## v10.0.0.5 ##
Removed duplicate constants for the automated messages, hidden in pChat.lua file

## v10.0.0.4 ##
Fixed translations of the automated messages dialog, which you are bale to spawn via the /msg chat slash command

## v10.0.0.3 ##
After some users were not able to find the name format dropdown boxes for guilds and groups in the chat channel submenus, and thought the name format setting in the chat message submenu would apply to all chat messages:
Changed the settings so that the "name format" dropdown boxes for guild and group are also shown (duplicate) in the "message options"->"names in messages" submenu.

Hopefully the "bug reports" stop now as you will find them all at one spot :-)

## v10.0.0.2 ##
Fixed:
-Automated messages keybind and chat comamnd /msg will show the UI again

## v10.0.0.1 ##
Fixed:
-Timestamps and other formatting re-added for system mesages
-Timestamps and other formatting re-added for system mesages send by LibChatMessage (thanks sirinsidiator)
Attention: If you got the addon "DebugLogViewer" enabled the debug messages of addons will be ONLY shown in the DebugLogViewer UI/Quicklog UI, and NOT in the normal chat anymore! This is normal and an intended behaviour.
-Chat tab switch to default chat tab, after login

Added:
-Settings to enable/disable the chat format handlers (colors, timestamps, names, etc.).
You can find these settings as new submenu inside the "Message settings" submenu.
The following chat handlers can be enable/disabled:
  • System messages
  • Group left
  • Group type change
  • Friends list online status
  • Ignore list added
  • Ignore list removed
Standard setting value is: Enabled
You can use them to disable the chat formatters for e.g. online status and thus fix problems with other addons like "No Thank You".
You MUST reload the UI to change these settings so be sure to do so after changing the checkboxe values.

Something's wrong with my pChat

My say and zone chats look like this. And if I touch any of the settings, they stop showing completely. Anyone else had this problem and happen to have a solution for it?
This addon is easily in my top 3, but I can't keep using it if it doesn't want to cooperate
I've tried disabling all other addons, uninstalling other (and this) addons several times, but I can't get it to work. Only thing I haven't done yet is reinstall the game, but I'd rather not go over that process...

Feature request

I know you are busy but if you have time in the future or if someone takes over updating the addon, I would love a feature where we can make a custom blacklist for messages containing certain words. Such as "+dolmen". I never farm dolmens so it's just trash cluttering my chat. Same with guild recruiting, would be nice to blacklist guild names that spam recruitment a lot.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Edit: I just took a peek in pchat.lua and what I'm looking for is actually in there but it's not visible ingame/nonfunctioning? :O

/camp on key up on empty input history

Hello best Ayantir of all,
this is a reminder about the feature I asked you about, since I don't know whether it made it on your ToDo-List.
Upon login, it would be glorious if the input history could be initialised with /camp, so that I can log out with return, up, enter if I didn't chat anything.

Thank you so much for maintaining this. <3

Yes, personally I understand what you've said and how you feel. Creating an add-on is a voluntary act and maintaining an add-on afterward can require a lot of time and effort, too. Some bugs can be tolerated, but others render the add-on unusable, so every developer must accept the possibility that will happen.

Eventually, there will be a major update to TESO and the add-on will be shown on ESC > Addons as "Outdated". In my experience, if an add-on has not been updated within a month, at least, then it has probably been abandoned. Nonetheless, I still use one or two of them and expect to continue using them until they no longer work.

I recall the keybind to toggle the Chat UI display, which I do not use. But I don't recall whether pChat uses Shift+tab to switch from the current tab to the tab specified by the digit.

Currently Shift+4 is bound to toggle the SALTI addon output (because Shift+4 is the symbol $ for US dollars on my QWERTY English keyboard). Occasionally its display appears briefly and promptly closes, but I have not been able to determine why. Now it seems to result from a conflict with the pChat key-bind that you describe.

No the 1st tab is the 1st tab. the zone channels are displayed here, like all other tabs. Simply rename it, change the filters and made it like you want?
Yes, a player can do that. But I don't know what happens if a player attempts to delete the tab while there are currently no other tabs present.

I won't dynamically create tabs on group join / leave.
I suppose you mean that pChat will not dynamically create a tab when a player's character joins a group, and remove it after the player's character leaves the group. (I do not expect pChat to do that.)

However, in my experience, the game client will do that unless it finds a tab which has the Group channel enabled at the time taht the player's character joins a group. So the game client's behavior has potential consequences in the context of creating key-binds for tabs, and/or for chat channels.

Almost all of my remarks concern the Chat UI behavior of which a developer must be aware before creating a key-bind feature for tabs and/or for chat channels. I did not intend to describe the current behavior of pChat.

I agree that I still didn't added the switch per tab feature. for now tabs still share the same target on text entry.

Keybinds to switch between tabs and toggle chat window

As far as I can determine, there are no such keybinds. There is no section for pChat in the ESC > Controls > Addon Keybinds interface.
Yes, they are hidden here and there. at the bottom of ui section if I remember well. it's basically Shift+tab to switch from a tab to the next one and a keybind to minimize chat.

(1) By default, the first tab is the "Zone" tab. It has the same configuration options as other tabs. If I recall correctly, by default the Zone channels are enabled, but none of the guild channels are enabled. It is created when the game client is installed and it is always displayed. I don't know whether a player can delete the Zone tab while no other tab exists, or delete it after creating one or more other tabs to its right.
No the 1st tab is the 1st tab. the zone channels are displayed here, like all other tabs. Simply rename it, change the filters and made it like you want?

(2) When a player's character joins a group, the Chat UI channel is automatically switched to Group. Further, apparently the messages sent via the Group channel must (?) be displayed on the tab to the right of the first tab. When there is no tab to the right of the first tab, a default Group tab is created by the game client. If there is an existing second tab, and its configuration does not have the Group channel selected, then the default Group tab is inserted between the first tab and the second tab, to display Group channel messages.

--- When that insertion occurs, the tab which was previously the second tab becomes the third tab, the third tab becomes the fourth tab, the fourth tab becomes the fifth tab, etc. The ad hoc "ghost" Group tab remains until the player's character is no longer in a group, then it disappears and the other tabs (if there are any) return to their previous positions. However, when the second tab is configured with the Group channel enabled, the default Group tab is not introduced.

--- Also, I have seen screenshots in which, apparently, a Group tab was added by the player to the right end of a series of other, pre-existing tabs. The added tab is configured with the Group channel selected, of course. Perhaps the game client will search for a tab that is configured with the Group channel selected before it resorts to inserting the default Group tab. If so, then that has been a feature of which I have been unaware, and one that I have not tried to adopt.
I won't dynamically create tabs on group join / leave.

Yes, I reported a few bugs. Repeatedly posted about things I feel that could be improved. And so had other people.
It wasn't even acknowledged.
Hell I don't have a problem with Ayathir saying "sorry, I'm too busy, can't work on addons for foreseeable future". What I hate is ignoring all the posts.

Otherwise, please accept that not every addon has to be constantly updated with every new feature people suggest. I mean I do with mine a lot of the time, and often people have some really cool ideas I simply hadn't thought of. But explaining what it is exactly you were hoping to see is a much better way to motivate authors to take a look at it. In fact, when people post "is this abandoned" on my projects it usually just makes me ignore them more.

I'm not really sure what the point of such comments would be...

Arrow pChat Keybinding

It would be great if I could change to a specific Chat UI tab, and did not have to also press Enter (or / ) and enter a /command to change to the appropriate channel before I can send a message that will be displayed on that tab.

Currently, I have configured 5 tabs, one for each guild of the 5 guilds of which I am a member, so that only messages from that guild's channel will be displayed, as well as from the Tell and System channels. But when I change to a guild's tab, I must manually change the channel to that guild's channel too if I want to post a message to other players using it.

On the pChat Addon Info tab, buried among other statements and phrases about the pChat features:

" Keybinds to switch between tabs and toggle chat window"

As far as I can determine, there are no such keybinds. There is no section for pChat in the ESC > Controls > Addon Keybinds interface.

Note that a player can configure each Chat tab to display one or more channels. So it is better for a key-bind to change the tab, not a channel. But, assuming the API has features to implement it, the player should be able to configure the addon to specify a different channel for their input for each tab. Then the add-on can change the current channel to the channel specified for the tab to which the player changed.

But I suspect there are some "gotchas" with respect to changing a tab, whether with a key-bind, or by placing the mouse cursor on the tab and pressing the LMB (which is the default method to change a tab). For what it is worth, I have observed two particular behaviors with the native Chat UI.

(1) By default, the first tab is the "Zone" tab. It has the same configuration options as other tabs. If I recall correctly, by default the Zone channels are enabled, but none of the guild channels are enabled. It is created when the game client is installed and it is always displayed. I don't know whether a player can delete the Zone tab while no other tab exists, or delete it after creating one or more other tabs to its right.

(2) When a player's character joins a group, the Chat UI channel is automatically switched to Group. Further, apparently the messages sent via the Group channel must (?) be displayed on the tab to the right of the first tab. When there is no tab to the right of the first tab, a default Group tab is created by the game client. If there is an existing second tab, and its configuration does not have the Group channel selected, then the default Group tab is inserted between the first tab and the second tab, to display Group channel messages.

--- When that insertion occurs, the tab which was previously the second tab becomes the third tab, the third tab becomes the fourth tab, the fourth tab becomes the fifth tab, etc. The ad hoc "ghost" Group tab remains until the player's character is no longer in a group, then it disappears and the other tabs (if there are any) return to their previous positions. However, when the second tab is configured with the Group channel enabled, the default Group tab is not introduced.

--- Also, I have seen screenshots in which, apparently, a Group tab was added by the player to the right end of a series of other, pre-existing tabs. The added tab is configured with the Group channel selected, of course. Perhaps the game client will search for a tab that is configured with the Group channel selected before it resorts to inserting the default Group tab. If so, then that has been a feature of which I have been unaware, and one that I have not tried to adopt.

If any of my remarks are in factual error, then please accept my apology and please correct me. Thank-you for your time and attention to this matter.

Feature Request: auto color guilds

must have addon

The option to use different colors for different guilds, doesn't "auto-color" guilds in any way. It would be nice if the guilds could either be auto-colored, or perhaps to simply access a predefined palette instead of having to manually set rgb values for each guild.

Is it possible to add to a right click menu on a text to copy to all the channels/guild channels? For example if I'm looking for group or DD etc. to copy the whole message to all guild channels?
