Curse

Ok, I see that now - thx for posting the pics. I just overlooked it because it is so similiar looking to the Blizz app.

I had a previous recruiter that worked pretty good. With it, I could filter by level (like if I only to recruit those above a certain level) as well as by class. It also retained a list of "Do Not Recruit" that was manually or automatically adjusted. Additionally, you could set a number for how many your wanted to auto-recruit.

That addy was really useful because I could recruit (for example) 50 Priests, {and/or} Shamen {and/or}, Rogues who were all minimal level 70 - and stop once the required 50 were recruited.

However, the downside was that it spammed to much (the same player several times until that player responded), and I guess it was removed from Curse, because I no longer see it.

Is there any way, with your program, that you can filter level & class? Or do you plan to do so in a future release? I know that I can put this in a recruiting template page...but realistically, many potentials never read the description, just see a guild that is a certain level and apply.

Thanks for your time and efforts in this addy. So far, it's the best one out there, and thanks to your efforts, one of the few that has value.

Ok, guess I'm a big dummy. I installed this via Curse Client, filtered it so that only the GL toon has access to it, but cannot find it in my in-game interface add-ons. I've looked thru the installed files and cannot find any / commands. I've tried several of the general commands with addys - but nothing seems to activate the program. Can someone please share the trick?

Thanks

Hi there. Nice addon so far.

I'm using Bazooka for displaying LDB plugins, and the Minimap Notification, when our guild has new applicants, is not showing. If I completely disable Bazooka, the minimap icon correctly shows or hides if there are new or no new applicants.

Perhaps you could use the LDB text/info message for displaying how many new applicants are there, because the icon in the Bazooka Bar is always showing, wether there are new applicants or not. So the icon can not be toggled on/off by your addon like it does on the minimap.

Just a number, perhaps colored white if zero and colored red if there are applicants>0 , just like other LDB Addons also display the number of friends online or the name who whispered last.

German locales do load now.

Thank you.

The german language still doesn't load.

If i set  ["deDE"] = true at line 100, only the comment within the addon disappears that locale support isn't available, but everything else remains in english.

If I compare with the Addon Broker_cashflow, I see that there is an locales.xml in the subdirectory "Locales" and in the .toc file of the addon the path to locales.xml is mentioned. Perhaps that helps...

It works!

The message is displayed now in the bazooka bar. (Titan Panel, and others may also work then)

Perhaps the message could be a bit shorter, like: "1 new applicant"

Another problem is, I cannot switch to german language by defining "de" or "deDE" in the configuration page of the addon. What's the trick there?

PS: I've also corrected some german translations in curseforge.

I tried on my own a little bit by adding the "text" property after line 180:

    -- LDB Launcher
    local reLDB = LibStub:GetLibrary("LibDataBroker-1.1"):NewDataObject(L["Recruitment Enhancement"], {
        type = "launcher",
        icon = "Interface\\Addons\\recruitmentenhancement\\Icons\\minimap.tga",
        text = "-",

        ^^

After this change, the "-" was displayed right next to the icon in the bazooka bar, just like other addons are displaying their infos. So this is the key to it.

Then I tried to change the value later in function ToggleMinimapIcon but something like this didn't work:

function RecruitmentEnhancement:ToggleMinimapIcon()
  -- Check and Update our Icon
  numApplicants = GetNumGuildApplicants()
  if(numApplicants > 0)then
    DBIcon.text = "!";
    DBIcon:Show(L["Recruitment Enhancement"]);
  else
    DBIcon:Hide(L["Recruitment Enhancement"])
  end
end

Perhaps it didn't work because of defining the object reLDB as a local variable within the function OnInitialize, but I don't know how lua works, and what to do so that properties of objects can be addressed safely everywhere else in the source code.

But maybe these hints helped a little bit for your work.
