About EkWaitList
EkWaitList is a wait list addon that will let you maintain a list of people in the same order that they were added to the list. You can also sort the list by name, class, guild rank, or the time they were added to the list. If you are in a party or raid when someone on the wait list joins the party/raid, then they can be automatically be removed from the wait list.
You can update the list manually, or have people send special whisper commands to the person in charge of the wait list. These special whisper commands allow people to add themselves to the wait list, to remove themselves from the wait list, and to see who is currently on the wait list. You can choose whether to accept whispers only from guild members, or from anyone.
EkWaitList can also make use of main character names stored in guild notes to allow people to whisper from either their main or alternate characters, and remove the correct player from the wait list when they join a party/raid.
The addon allows you to send (via whispers) a copy of the wait list data to someone else that also has EkWaitList installed. The main purpose for this is to provide a way for the wait list to be given to someone else when the person currently in charge of the wait list has to leave.
Because the addon does not use a chat channel, the only person that has to have the addon installed is the person in charge of the wait list. The addon does not track whether a player is online/offline or what zone they are in, since those features would require a chat channel and also require that everyone have the addon installed.
If you have the EkRaidAttend addon installed, then EkWaitList can provide the names of the people on the wait list to EkRaidAttend so that it can record their names in attendance lists. EkRaidAttend is not required to run EkWaitList.
For more detailed information about this addon refer to the index.html file that is included with the addon.
To open the addon's UI window, assign a keybinding or type: /ekwl
Command summary:
You can use either /ekwl, or /ekwaitlist, to begin any of these commands:
/ekwl -- Toggles the EkWaitList window.
/ekwl help/? -- Displays this command summary.
/ekwl rui -- Reload your user interface.
/ekwl reset -- Reset window position.
/ekwl add -- Open the 'add a player to the wait list' window.
/ekwl add -- Add the specified player to the wait list.
/ekwl remove -- Remove the specified player from the wait list.
/ekwl who [<channel>] -- Announce in chat who is on the wait list.
The <channel> can be one of the following:
g or guild -- Guild chat (the default if you are in a guild)
o or officer -- Officer chat
p or party -- Party chat
r or raid -- Raid chat
s or say -- Say
y or yell -- Yell
reply -- The last person who whispered you.
<number> -- The number of a channel you are already joined to.
<name> -- The name of a channel you are already joined to.
Example: /ekwl who guild
Example: /ekwl who 5
Example: /ekwl who mychannel
Wait list whisper commands
These are the commands that players can whisper to the person in charge of the wait list. You can enable/disable each whisper command from the EkWaitList options windows.
wl -- Display the available wait list whisper commands.
wl who -- Display who is on the wait list.
wl add -- Add your current character to the wait list.
wl add <name> -- Add one of your characters to the wait list.
wl main -- Add your main character to the wait list.
wl remove -- Remove yourself from the wait list.
wl status -- Display your status text.
wl status <text> -- Change your status text.
Some examples:
If Jane was in charge of the wait list and you wanted to add yourself to it, you would use the following command: /tell jane wl add
To remove yourself from Jane's wait list you would type: /tell jane wl remove

- Added handling of player names containing UTF8 encoded characters (accents, etc).
Version 1.37 (2011-04-26)
- Updated for the WoW 4.1 patch.
Version 1.36 (2010-10-12)
- Updated for the WoW 4.0.1 patch.
Version 1.34 (2010-06-16)
- Fixed an error when clicking the "Whisper" button on the 3.3.5 test realm.
- Added the command "/ekwl who reply". This will announce who is on the wait list to the last person that whispered you.
- Added the whisper command "wl status". If nothing is typed after the word "status" then the addon will tell you what your status text is, otherwise it will change your status to the text that appears after the word "status".
Version 1.33 (2009-12-08)
- Updated for the WoW 3.3 patch.
Version 1.32 (2009-08-14)
- Updated for the WoW 3.2 patch.
Version 1.31 (2009-04-13)
- Updated for the WoW 3.1 patch.
Version 1.30 (2008-10-13)
- Updated for the WoW 3.0.2 patch.
- Added tooltip options.
- Added button to switch between time added and time waited.
- Added death knight to the list of classes.
Version 1.20 (2008-03-26)
- Updated for the WoW 2.4.0 patch.
- Restored the standard UI window behaviour that was disabled in EkWaitList version 1.19.
Version 1.19 (2007-11-14)
- Updated for the WoW 2.3.0 patch.
- Due to issues with Blizzard's UIPanel-system code (they are looking into it), I have temporarily changed the addon window so that it does not behave like a standard UI window. This just means that it will no longer shift left/right when other UI panels are opened, such as the social or character windows. This change does not affect people that have this addon's "movable window" option enabled.
Version 1.18 (2007-09-29)
- Updated for the WoW 2.2.0 patch.
Version 1.17 (2007-06-04)
- Updated for the WoW 2.1.0 patch.
Version 1.16 (2007-01-11)
- Updated for the WoW 2.0.3 patch.
Version 1.14 (2006-12-05)
- Updated for the WoW 2.0.1 patch.
Version 1.12 (2006-08-23)
- Updated for the WoW 1.12 patch.
- Added a "Remove player when they join the party/raid" option. If this option is enabled, then a player that is on the wait list will automatically be removed from it when they join the party/raid. If the option is disabled, then the player will have to be removed manually from the wait list. This option is enabled by default.
- Automatic removal of players should now work when you are in a party that is not part of a raid.
- Added a "/ekwl who <channel>" command. This will announce who is on the wait list to the specified channel. You can specify a channel name or number that you are already joined to, or one of the following keywords: g, guild, o, officer, p, party, r, raid, s, say, y, yell. If channel is omitted and you are in a guild, then guild chat will be used by default.
- Added an "Announce" button to the wait list window. This will do the same thing as the new "/ekwl who" command.
- Added a keybinding to toggle the wait list window.
- You can now specify a name when using the "wl add" whisper command (for example: wl add joe). This allows you to add any of your own characters to the wait list, regardless of which character you are currently playing as. In order for the addon to know what the names of your other characters are, your guild has to be using the [main] name format in guild notes for alternate characters.
- Added a "wl main" whisper command. This is just like the "wl add" command except that it will only add the name of your main character to the wait list. If you don't have a main character name then it will use your current character's name instead.
- Fixed bug: When sending the wait list to another person, the guild ranks were not transferring correctly.
- Made some changes to avoid a possible error at login time that could occur if the client thinks that there are guild members and the guild member information is not yet available.

responds with current comment text
/ekwl who respond
This would spam the contents of the wait list to the last person that messaged you. I personally would use this in a macro for when I run org PvP groups and ppl ask me who is on the wl. Most pugs being unable to figure out how to simply wl who themselves and all.
Thank You!!!!
If I set it to "Anyone can add..." then it cuts the first letter off the name and as such, will not invite because the name is not found.
I prefer to use this mod over the others I've found, so I hope a resolution can be had.
Also...a synch with other officers would be spectacular.
I use this mod and love it. however, i was wondering if it is at all possible to add feature so that other people using this mod can synchronize with each other.
With EK attend it shows if the player was online or offline. But with the wait list it just says "wait list" is it possible to either remove people from the wait list when they log off? And check for their alt being online rather then their main? I want to award dkp for being online and available to raid not just on the list.
Would it be possible to have the addon track a user set channel for the list instead if having them send whispers. They would just join the 'wait channel' instead. If I am in the channel too I can see people coming and going, I would like to track it. If EKRA could include it in the snaphot that would be great!
Thanks :)
I love the concept of this, and EKRA works fine for me. But when I have this mod enabled and in a raid, it lags the fuck out of me. Anytime someone joins raid, logs on from my guild, leaves raid, its like 1-2s of UI lag.
Any fix for this? Or any idea what might be causing it? I can only assume its not widespread or that people use another version of this or a different attendance/list package altogether, because I dont see any complaints about it.
We have a lot of people on reserve - when we have a DKP event I currently have them all pm me. I then manually check who is actually there versus who ekwl says are on the list.
What would be great is if i could get them to whisper something like /wl confirm so I get a list of who is actually there. That way the list i generate from the wait list is of those people who are actually online rather that the ones who have logged/are idling.
Appreciate any assistance or feedback
