About WoW Dings
WoW Dings allows you to add funny symbols into your chat messages such as smilies, arrows, hearts etc. Just type the code corresponding to the symbol you want in your message, it will be automatically replaced. For example, :) will be replaced by ☺, (l) will become ♥ and so on. Of course, other players do not need the addon to see the symbols you insert. However, the symbols may not be visible to players who have changed the default font of the game by another one that does not include the symbols.
Doesn't work for /say, /yell and /raidwarning messages.
Also implements macro shortcuts for your current location (here) and detailed information about targeted player (t).
Type /wd to display the list of available symbols.
v1.3
Added dynamic shortcuts:
- (t) or (target): Detailed target information (Name, class, race, level and guild)
- (here): Current player location
- (WD): WoW Dings download link
v1.2

v1.1
- Removed math.randomseed() calls

having an issue with everything coming out as ?
Do you use an addon to replace the default chat font ? Send <3 to another player and ask what he sees
that's too bad :( thanks for getting back to me though!! :D
It's not possible. There is no way to determine all the symbols supported by 3rd party fonts.
is there a way to make it work with different fonts.. or is this just not possible?
welp it's just my chat addons then lol. tried and it sure enough they see all the symbols. Thank you =)
Would like to add that the statement "other players do not need the addon to see the symbols you insert" isn't exactly correct. It is true in the sense that the addon is not required. It is untrue in assuming other people can see the symbols at all. Because not all can.
For other people to see the symbols, it is required that they are using the default WoW chat font (friz quadrata). Most fonts don't have a lot of these characters in them, like the smilies and the greek letters. Just look at the addon description for example, there are question marks instead of characters in it in most browsers.
So if anybody are having the problem "does not work", this is the reason.

Well noticed. I updated the description.
Okay Im having a slight problem that is making me crazy. Whenever I type RUN in all capitals, all by itself in the chat box I get this weird backwards N symbol... if I type something before RUN it won't show this symbol. I went into the CharMap and deleted that symbol, I checked WoW... it still happened. SO I went back to the CharMap and deleted every symbol which command even contained a r, u or n captial or no capital. It's still giving me the backwards N when I type "RUN" by itself... /cry
EDIT: Sorry Im blind its not a backwards N, its just a N.
LOL, You've just found the "hidden Russian feature"
Every message starting by "RU" (uppercase) will be converted in russian-like text. To disable it, just open WoWDings.lua and comment lines 11 to 16.
Fixed!!! Thank you very much.
I don't plan to update it for the moment, only updating the TOC. You can add your own symbols by modifiying the symbols file.
Clearfonts is probably changing the default Arial (the one with the cool symbols) by another one without the symbols. You won't see the symbols, but people having the default font will see them. Just disable Clear font to see them as well.
