Changelog:

## v10.0.2.1 ## 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)"

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.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.4.1.4 ##
-Removed MUST dependency LibChatMessage as ZOs fixed their message formatter handling stuff and the workaround provided by LibChatMessage seems to currently not be needed any longer.
You can keep it for newer updates though, it just is not currently needed anymore to enable pChat.
-Changed the event formatter functions to register normally again, instead of overwriting them

## v9.4.1.3 ##
-Added LibDebugLogger for debug output (optional dependency. If not installed debug messages will be shown in chat normally)
-Fixed chat_System.primaryContainer not present after event_player_activated sometimes
-Fixed disabled check on some settings
-Fixed some translations
-Changed guild Names to use the unique guildIds (automatic SavedVariables transfer so your settings should be the same as before)
-Changed character selection dropdownboxes in the settings to use the characterIds in the background to enable renaming of characters and keeping the settings properly (chat synchronisation)
-Added character class icon and color to the selection dropdown boxes in the settings, sorted by class
-Added 4th chat formatter selection for the chat prefix (normal/guild/group): @AccountName/characterName:
-Fixed self defined chat guild prefix shown instead fo the total length guild name
-Fixed self defined chat guild switches (like /itc for Imperial Trading Company)

## v9.4.1.2 ##
Fixed the chat tab selection problems caused by chat tab template renaming

## v9.4.1.1 ##
-Fixed errors related to LAM settings
-Replaced old function CHAT_SYSTEM:CreateChannelData() with a new created compatibility function ZO_ChatSystem_CreateChannelData() -> Hopefully fixed the guild chat slash shortcuts as well with this (no testing was possible)

## v9.4.1.0 ##
Fixed chat tab switch by keybind: If last chat tab was arrived and first was selected a lua error appeared

## v9.4.0.9 ##
-Removed included library: LibMediaProvider
-New dependency to fix ZOs chat formatter problem "temporarily": LibChatMessage in version 80 or higher!
-> Please install the libraries as standalone version (like an addon via Minion or manually into the c:/users/your windows username/documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/AddOns folder

-Updated API version to Harrowstorm
-Fixed changed chat system/proxy stuff
-Fixed some function replacements
-Added some checks
-Fixed chat history restore with nil value at 1 position

Important:
If you enable pChat currently all other chat addons, which have registered chat event handlers for formatting message texts, group/guild/friend add & remove will not apply their chat stuff properly.
This happens because one needs to overwrite the chat handlers to make it currently work, because ZOs code is not working anymore like before and they need to provide a fix!

## v9.4.0.8 ##
-Fixed: Error message for missing libraries was shown sometimes without a reason. Updted the message with more details as well.

## v9.4.0.7 ##
-Fixed: Missing libraries messages not shown before event_add_on_loaded anymore, and messages not shown if libraries are not missing.
-Changed: Messages about missing/wrong LibMainMenu library was enhanced with more details, so no one should confuse LibMainMenu (pChat) and LibMainMenu-2.0 (Other addons) anymore.

## v9.4.0.6 ##
-Fixed: Chat restore if restore after reloadui is enabled in the settings won't throw an error anymore if the restored chat message was empty (somehow)

## v9.4.0.5 ##
-Fixed: Removed debug message at whisper messages
-Changed: Error message about LibMainMenu shows information about the sticky comment within pChat comments on https://www.esoui.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=93#comments and tells the user to follow the steps there to fix their other, known incompatible addons.

## v9.4.0.4 ##
Another try to fix LibMainMenu outdated usages in OTHER addons, from within pChat...
Guys: If you get a lua error message like this
THEN PLEASE: Read the pChat comments, first post at the top (sticky), section "Incompatibility" and check if one of these addons is active. Read the workaround/checkl these addons comments to fix this locally at your side as I cannot fix this from within pChat. Tell the authors to update their addons properly please.

Quick workaround info:
Delete the subfolder lib/LibMainMenu or libs/LibMainMenu in these addons and add a
## DependsOn: LibMainMenu
to these addon's txt file (e.g. PVPMeter.txt)

## v9.4.0.3 ##
Fixed:
-Chat fadeout works again (ZOs changed code, pChat was changed accordingly)
-Changed implemented chat restore fix by Maggi
-Added some more checks for LibMainMenu.
If you get an error message that LibMainMenu is not loaded or the /msg chat command is not working anymore, be sure to read the sticky post in the pChat comments here about known bugs and known incompatibilites with other addons:
HarvestMap
PVPMeter
SuperStar
-> Check the comments of these addons how to remove the embedded LibMainMenu in these addons and how to make them load your installed standalone LibMainMenu (by adding ##DependsOn: LibMainMenu to the other addon's txt file) properly.

Added:
-New setting "Add prefix to restored chat messages": Will add a [H] (for [history]) in front of restored chat messages. The color of the [H] will be the color of the standard ESO chat channels (ESO vanilla UI settings).
-New setting "Do not notify on restored whispers": If the whisper notification is enabled and this setting is enabled as well restored whisper messages won't show the highlighted whisper chat tab nor the whisper notification button anymore.

## v9.4.0.2 ##
Fixed:
-German/Englisch translations with more/changed details
-Chat resizing is possible again (Thanks to votan for the help!)
-lua error messages regarding LibMainMenu (version 1) fixed: Please update the library and install it with version >= 7
-Removed hard coded library call to LibMediProvider-1.0. The lib is still included into the "lib" subfolder but will be found and loaded by the game's vanilla addon manager via it's own LibMediaProvider.txt file now.

## v9.4.0.1 ##
Fixed:
-lua error message upon incoming messages with Timestamps disabled
-Whisper sounds played again on incoming whispers (if you set the new sounds slider to a value >1)

Changed:
-Whisper sounds: Removed dropdown box with non functional (except 1) sounds and added a slider with ALL sounds available ingame. The standard sound is NONE (slider value = 1) which means no sound will be played. Please move the slider to hear the sound played and see the name at the slider's label

## v9.4.0.0 ##
- Updated API
- Updated German translations
- Fixed chat messages showing only %s or %%s
- Added history bugfix of user "Maggi": If timestamps are disabled the chat history restore was somehow wrong sometimes. Hopefully this fixes the bug mentioned by other users as well
- Added security checks for needed libraries
- Some other bugfixes I had already implemented with versions before, linked in the comments of pChat

===========================================================================

## v9.3.11.25 ##
================
-- Updated LibCustomTitles
-- Updated Manifest to support variable AddOnVersion

This is an maintenance update, new version 9.4 is in development and will be released soon. Was not ready to release before Murkmire update.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.10.24 ##
===============
-- Fixed issue Tells being stored as last chat channel for a tab.

If you have the issue, simply choose a different channel for it along with sending a message.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.9.24 ##
===============
-- Fixed issue with manifest.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.8.24 ##
===============
-- Fixed issue with AGS displaying messages of purchases.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.7.24 ##
===============
-- Default tab in settings now shows the tab names as opposed to the tab numbers.
-- Default tab settings moved to Chat Tab Settings
-- Updated libCustomTitles to the most recent version to address issues with RUEso add on.
-- Remember to disable libCustomTitles follow the instructions http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1765-DisableCustomTitles.html

Known Issue: Default Channel for default tab is still not functioning, I released this update early to accomadate issues with RUEso addon.

Note About Default Tab: -- If tabs are renamed it may take a reloadui to get refresh the names, but as long as the tab number is still the same there will be no issue. That is if you have your "Guild 1" tab as the default, and rename it to "G1", as long as the tab is in the same place the function for Default Tab will not be affected.

RECOMMEND TO RESET DEFAULT TAB TO THE NAMED TAB.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.6.24 ##
===============
-- Fix to 9.3.5.24, fixed default tab as it ceased to function. Programmer type :)
-- Added support for library libCustomTitles, to disable to to
http://www.esoui.com/downloads/info1765-DisableCustomTitles.html

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.5.24 ##
===============
-- Fix suggested by SlippyCheeze to avoid infinite loads
-- Combined the old keybinds with the ones recently added, now all keybinds under heading pChat.
-- Added Chat Tab Settings to addon menu. For coming options.
-- Added option to remember the last chat channel used in a tab.
-- API bump for Wolfhunter, testing completed. Will contineu to test til release.

Originally I planned on a major update, with many things I am working on for pChat, however I decided to do incremental updates. More to come for chat tab features, and fixes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

## v9.3.4.23##
===============
-- A fix put into place for line 1407 reported as a bad argument by Itabit
-- Restructred Settings menu, using submenus instead of annoying long list.
-- Changed default window darkness to 6 instead of 1.

Notes: I have not been able to duplicate the bad argument error reported by Itabit, however, he found a solution was to start with a fresh saved vars. I did code a fix, however I cannot confirm it will work at this point. Please report any problems you may get with this release.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

v9.3.2.23
=========
-- Fixed typos from Chat Tab lables for new bindings

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

v9.3.1.23
=========
This release was planned to have more changes, however I decided to push these out sooner to everyone.

-- Russian translation updated by alexesprit
-- Keybinds for up to 12 tabs, choose them in the Control options of the game menu. Choose keybinds for each tab, when pressed,
you will be in that tab.
-- Fixed default tab, it was being superseeded by Chat History, it is now setting default tab after history is loaded.
-- Changed transparency selection to chose between 0 to 11. Option "0" is not going to be the most transparent, but the default
ESO Background. "1" will be the most transparent, all the way up to 11 being the darkest. You may experience when using the
default option of 0 that it may appear too light or too dark, quit the game to desktop and go back in and it should be correct.

Next up, working on a rewrite of the settings which impact how the saved vars is saved, it will be highly likely that the Sync Chat option
may go away, opting for a selection of either character based settings, or account wide settings. Unless I discover another use of the chat
sync that will impact the add on negatively.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

v9.3.0.23
=======
-- Updated Chat Transparency to have 10 levels of transparency. Always wanted more choices on this :)

v9.2.23
=======
-- Updated libaddonmenu library to r26

Also, Restore History don't need anymore the ChatSync Feature being activated for LogOut, Kick & Quit.
Plus, the timer for chat restoration is now based on each message timestamp and not logout time (if you set the timer to 3h, delog/relog immediatly, the messages past 3h won't be restored). Please note that for a ReloadUI, this timer is still ignored.

Because of this small change, the chat reverted from previous versions of pChat won't get their colors but default channel ones. Plus all System Messages reverted from previous versions of pChat will be stripped.

- Fixed a bug which reverted (again) your guild colors to black after leaving a guild.
- Fixed a tiny bug on copy when length was > 1000 chars if last char was non-Ascii.

- Updated russian translation, many thanks to KiriX

v2.4
=======
- Added History :
When you'll reloadUI Your TextEntry history (available with up/down arrow key) will re restored, your chat will be restored, your current channel will also be restored. This action is enabled per default and can be disabled.
If you active the Chat Sync feature (available in options - activated per default in last release), You could also activate this option if you LogOut get kicked on just leave game. For those 3 settings a shared timer in hours is added.
PS: If you crash (any reason), the last session won't be restored, but the precedent one, I can't do anything for it, just don't crash

- Added Switch to Next Tab feature - It will permit you to switch to the next tab. Default Keybind is Shift+Tab, if you hit Shift while stealth, you'll stand up, so you'll maybe need to rebind this action. You can change it in your UI settings keybinds

- Added Whisp Notification.
If you activate this option, when you'll receive a whisp, if your actual tab don't show IM's or you didn't scrolled at the bottom, a notification will pop at the top right corner of the Chat Window. If you click on sender name, the chat will scroll at the button or switch to the next tab with IM enabled and scroll at the bottom. If your chat was Minimized when you receive an IM, a "IM" button will appear in red in the mini chat bar. It will show you the sender name and it's IM.
Clicking on it will restore your chat and same as before. This feature is disabled per default.

Improved copy dialog, the pages 2+ didn't get focus when opening them
Fixed system messages which outputs now to all containers for users of ChatIt with this option activated.
Fixed the rare bug with leftGuild (I guess it's ok, I can't test it).
Fixed the default sound when receiving an IM, it was set to None, it's now "Notification"[/list]

=======

- Fixes two bugs introduced with last versions.
For pChat color users, entry was generally set to dark red with v2.3
and an error at startup for few people who left a guild while using version 2.1+

v2.3
=======
- You can now choose in which tab System messages are displayed As the option is tab-dependant, the checkbox is in the parameters of your tab.
Take care: As a lot of addons output to chat, you're strongly prompted to keep at least SysMessages in 1 tab.
Developpers: Due to restrictions, pChat will snip your output to ChatSystem before this one will be completly ready (mainly for AddonLoaded debug).
- Fixes rares bugs with unknown books linked into the chat, convertName which was failing in some rares cases and Guild Reorganization

v2.2a
=======
- Automatic party switch re-enabled
- Fixed rare bug with Guild Reorganizations

v2.2
=======
- Fonts now use LibmediaProvider. Your font list may now be longer than before and shared with all addons
- Fixed font "Droid Sans"


v2.1
=======

- Added Font selector

15 new fonts included for people who would like to change their font.
To add yourself a font :
First, download a font with TrueType format (.ttf) or OpenType format (.otf)
Then paste it in pChat\fonts folder. You can create a new folder or just put the file here, as you want. Please don't include .txt files
Then, open with a text editor file pChat\fonts.lua (use notepad or a better tool, like Notepad++)
At the end of file, add your font like this : pChat.fontCollection["Font Name"] = "pChat/fonts/Folder/file.ttf" - Windows users must use "/" also.
Save and close.
Do a /ReloadUI ingame
Go in pChat settings, your font will be added in the dropdown Fonts. Just select it. It will reloadUI your game.
Take Care of Minion and updates, Minion and Updates generally erase the whole content of an addon. If your font is erased the chat won't be shown and the entrybox will be really small. If you get this problem, you can still type commands (like /reloadui) or go in pChat Settings and select font "ESO Standard Font"

EU Users : If you need to use your language specific characters, Here are the characters that the game actually handles. Some fonts don't include all of them : !\"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[email protected] ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ [\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|} ~¡£¤¦§©«-®°²³´µ¶·»½¿ ÀÁÂÄÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÑÒÓÔÖ×ÙÚÛÜßàáâäæçèéêëìíîïñòóôöùúûüÿŸ

- Added anti-reorganization guild :
When you leave a guild, and the guild you just left was not the last of your list, the guilds are reorganized. Leaving Guild1 means your guild2 become 1, the 3 become2, etc
So, now, when you leave a guild, pChat just rollback your guild color settings / Chat tabs settings / Your pChat default channel

- Fixed color of entry box for users of pChat colors. Now the entry color is same as 1st pChat color. If you use ESO social colors, you don't care of this fix.
