Hi i recently started creating addons.
i created a second "addon free" wow folder to test my addons in. but since i get a lot of wispers and i m not always able to respond when i run in to bugs i was wondering if there was a lightweight addon around that could auto respond something like "i am curently debugging and might not be able to respond" message. i could try to creat one myself but if it already exists it could save me some time.
it should be something that is lightweight and doesn't interfere with whatever i m creating.
didn't know i could put a dnd message. thanks for the tip. the only problem it gives me is that when i log in with a new "buggy addon loaded i can't set the message. but i ll try to work around that.
It would be REALLY simple to build such an addon... In fact, I just did lol. It's not posted on curse yet as I'm still adding a few more features. It will include the following:
1: A list of people who have messaged you along with their messages, accessed via slash command
2: the ability to clear the list mentioned above via slash command.
3: The ability to toggle the addon on or off, via slash commands.
4: A customizable message for the addon to send, modified via slash command.
Wouldn't it would be more efficient just to use one of the numerous existing addons that will record incoming whispers for later perusal, in conjunction with the "/dnd" function that's built into the game itself?
Writing addons for your own personal use for learning is great. Cluttering up public addon sites with dozens of functionally identical addons is annoying, though. :|
I only posted it as at least one person had a possible interest... Also, the only other way to fill the request, aside from mine, was to use two separate things. Most people prefer when all the features they want are consolidated within a single addon...

anyone know something similar?
Not an addon I know but do you need something more complex than a simple dnd message?
Afaik that's not the case with /busy.
Either will work (if auto remove away is unchecked) :)
thx for the tip.

I hope this is what you are after!!!
But every addon I make teaches me more stuff about the WoW API. So, I at least try to make an addon, just to see if I can.
