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.

Hi, no sorry, not via pChat. Maybe there are other addons providing this.
pChat will only allow to resize more than normal and to move it more than normal vanilla UI does, and it will remember it's position and size.
Never had trouble with the position and resizing sofar. Why do you need to lock te position? It's not moving that easly (only if you drag & drop the most left tab!), and resizing the same? Do you accidently move and resize it that often?

Well.. I wanted to resize/move mine the other day... just a bit... and after I did, every time I logged another char for the first time, the chat window would be approximately vertically 250% increased in size. Initially I just go to resize it back down, but as soon as I click the border (for resizing) it immediately just snaps back into position.. mostly where I want it to be. And naturally If I do resize it, instead of let it snap, the next time I log in any othar char, it happens allover again. Ofc took me few resizes to figure this out.. and naturally I immedately go look for a "lock" feature

I remembered this happened to me before. But since i didn't touch it for a long time, I already forgot about it.

This doesn't really matter much honestly.. I was just asking to make my life a bit easier. It's probably a bug in combination with some other addon.. and I got like 30.. and no way am I turning them off and testing this for a few hours

I had that happening as well some time but I wa snot able to reproduce it.
MAybe got to do with other addons in combination or with pChat sync feature of chat tabs, or even corrupted SavedVariables.
I had to move/resize it as you said and then it snapped to the position where it should by, all of sudden by magick So i never bothered any further and just clicked the chat tab once to make it "snap". And it did not happen anymore since > 1 year for me

Chat using Gamepad on PC

Until today's PTS update, chat using gamepad on PC would use the PC (mouse/keyboard) interface. pChat worked just fine.

On PTS today, while using gamepad on PC, ZOS has decided to display the "console" chat interface and pChat no longer works.

Is this a surprise or did we know this was coming? I'm wondering if it's intentional or something ZOS will fix.

Forcing the "console" chat for PC players is not good. I'm also wondering if this is something that pChat can override.

Re: Chat using Gamepad on PC

Sorry I do not know what you mean by "console" chat interface?
I'm not using the gamepad mode and thus do not know what has chanegd, and if somethign was meant to be changed at the chat. I guess it's a ZOs thing.

You should ask if this is intended in the forums here in this PTS update 7.2 post to ZOSDanBatson please directly:
https://www.esoui.com/forums/showthr...4734#post44734

I'm not ging to rework the whole addon if this is a change that will destroy the chat for PC keyboard users using a gamepad, sorry. Got no time and NO GAMEPAD to test this. This shoudl something you guys definately male visible and tell ZOs in the official ESO forums, if you do not want this to change to a console-a-like way on PC.

Unable to send tell by clicking on user name in chat

I'm not always able to send a tell by clicking on a user name/id in the chat window (only works about 20% of the time). About 90% of the time when I click on a name in chat nothing happens.
Any ideas what might cause this, I uninstalled and reinstalled and it still have the same problem.

I've had this problem since the start of Blackwood worked fine before that.

Re: Unable to send tell by clicking on user name in chat

Why do I always have to repeat this question here at each comment of each addon again and again and why don't you guys just tell us devs up in front automatically Please remember to do this next time if you post a bug report, thank you (that's why the sticky post at the top of these comments here tells you to "!READ THIS FIRST PLEASE, BEFORE SENDING NEW BUGs!" -> "HowTo report bugs/error messages properly").
Did you test this wth ONLY pChat enabled?

If it works then another addons interferes and you need to find out at your side which one it is. Most probably any other chat related one or custom UI addon like Bandits UI or similar.
If it does not: I never experienced that so far, sorry. It works fine for me. Any special stuff you notice as it does not work, like similar character/@displayNames of the receivers?

hello! preface: this happens even when this is the only addon enabled :)

i've noticed the keybinding for "switch to next tab" (default to shift + tab) cannot be unbound - it keeps being called and re-binding itself upon a ui reload.

is there any way to keep this unbound without binding it to something else, out of the way? thank you!

Hm the keybindings are handled by the game itsself and are not addon related.
Checked the code and pChat does what all other addons do.

The only way this could happen is if you use any other addon that copies keybindings from other characters like Votans Keybinder. But as you said this happens as only pChat is enabled I'm lost why this happens, sorry
Another thing I know off is that if you got many addons installed and enabled which all add keybindings to the game, there is a maximum of ~150 to 200 which the game can handle (including standard keybindings of the vanilla game). So maybe check that really all other adodns and libs are disabled and only pChat is enabled as you try to remove the keybind. Else it will be still the same state as before changing it (if it was not set it still is not set/if it was set it keeps being set) as the server is not updating it, but the UI visually shows it in the keybind settings as if it was changed -> After a RELOADUI/zone change/logout it reverts to the previous state then.

problem with saving addon-options

hi, for me the change of the char/accname option dont work. i change to char@accname, but nothing happens.

There seems to be a problem between the optionsmenu and the saved variables saving IDs and/or values.

f.e.:
- fresh installed I open ingame the configuration of pChat.
- there are saved numbers in different functions where u can change the nameformat (accountname, charnem etc.) - but the drop downs are showing the textvalues

the savedvariables after fresh installation looks like:

["@xxx"] =
{
["$AccountWide"] =
{


["formatguild"] =
{
[662936] = 2,
[320596] = 2,
[1469] = 2,
[155680] = 2,
[616760] = 2,
after change and reload:

["@xxx"] =
{
["$AccountWide"] =
{


["formatguild"] =
{
[662936] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[320596] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[1469] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[155680] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[616760] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
when i change it manually in the savedvariables-file to 3 and activate the addon again. it works and the chat shows me the format char@accname.

Other variables show this maybe too => like char sync. U read the long nummber-ID, the dropdown contains the charnames.

Re: problem with saving addon-options

Thanks for the hint! Will see if I'm able to rebuild this somehow. Looks like a reference is mixed-up somewhere at the guild chat hcannel output format settings then.

Edit:
From my first check everything with the LAM dropdown control looks correct.
There is a text table "choices" containing the "username@account" etc. entries.
And a relating table "choicesValues" which provides the numbers of the entries, like 1 to 4

Code:
choices = {GetString(PCHAT_FORMATCHOICE1), GetString(PCHAT_FORMATCHOICE2), GetString(PCHAT_FORMATCHOICE3), GetString(PCHAT_FORMATCHOICE4)},
choicesValues = {1, 2, 3, 4},
So they should update properly to the SavedVariables using the choicesValues entries, and not the choices entries
This is handled by LibAddonMenu-2.0 internally

I'll see if I can find a way to reproduce this.


Questions:
Did you copy the savedvariables from one character or account to another manually by modifying the SV.lua text files?
Did you copy the savedvariables from one character or account by using other addons?
Did you return to pChat after some time? So does it ONLY happen if you use old SavedVariables of pChat from e.g. 2 years ago and try to migrate them to the new pChat server dependent settings as you login the first time?
Did you make sure that ALL your addon's are not containing any older LibAddonMenu-2.0 folder in the subfolders/libs subfolder which is always loaded? Remove them from the subfolders and only install the newest version to your live/AddOns folder!

I always updated with minion and im using pChat since March 2020. But I didnt red the explanations u made for the migration or anything else with that mentioned update. And I had no problems. i didnt change anything in properties for several month. Everthing was working after minion update. month later I went into the Properties, I cant remember why and i recognized that in this dropdown stood "3" (from the old SV not changed). I knew the properties showed the textvalue before (3 = char@accname) and not the number. I selected from dropdown the textvalue and the mess began.

I never copied from one to another char by myself or addon-based. And I checked your article about bugs and old addons/libs. no LibAddonMenu in subfolders or somewhere else. All addons are always updated to last version.

Today i'd found some time to analyse it. Like I wrote it. I deinstalled addon and SV. Made a fresh reinstallation. In that new created SV I found as standard "2". Then I activated the Addon, selected char@acc from dropdown and then SV contained the textvalue "char@acc". Then I opened SV with Notepad++ and changed it to "3" manually and saved it. And it worked for me again.

The guild chat was just an example. this are all changes I made via notepad++ and replaced it with 3:
[662936] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[320596] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[1469] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[616760] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
[155680] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
["geoChannelsFormat"] = "Charaktername@Accountname",
["groupNames"] = "Charaktername@Accountname",

Re: Re: Re: problem with saving addon-options

Thanks for the details, this is really appreciated!
I'm not sure why this happens for you with a fresh installed addon and SVs. Was not able to reproduce this so far but I'll check all the mentioned
entries like guildformat, geoChannelsFormat, groupNames what could be wrong here.
Maybe it's just a typo I did not realize.

Love the addon. Can I add two feature suggestions please:
  1. ability to blocklist certain strings for anti-spam
    • My guild uses AutoInvite so I get a lot of messages in guild chat that just say "xxx" or "xxx2" I'd love the ability to filter out these messages since I am never a group lead
    • This feature should NOT filter all messages with the string, only filter messages with ONLY the string (ex. "xxx is up" should not be filtered, but "xxx" should)
  2. ability to filter out guild recruitment messages

Thanks for your consideration.


PS - is your GitHub repo the latest update and do you accept contributions? I'd love to look through your code and see if I can do this myself if nobody has the time to work on it.
