  • About Broker_Portals
  •  

Why would you have actionbars filled with portals, or open your spellbook everytime you cast a portal? Just right click on icon or minimap button and you can access all portals so comfortably.

It is designed as DataBroker plug-in, that lets you access all portal and teleport spells from one spot. Addon will be attached to minimap by default, but if you want to move/customize it, you will have to install additional addon like TitanPanel, ButtonBin, Fortress and there are many more.

Features:

  1. All mage portals and hearthstone available from simple dropdown menu
  2. Minimap button, so you don't have to install any additional addon
  3. Hearthstone location and cooldown in tooltip
  4. Reagent count in tooltip
  5. If hearthstone is on cooldown, Scroll of Recall will be used instead if possible (higher version of scrolls have higher priority)

Localization:

If you'd like to add/update localizations, do so here. Then leave a comment here on CurseForge or on Curse as I'm checking those more often than localization app itself, and I'll repack it.

Bugs / Suggestions:

If you have encountered any problem, or if you think theres something missing. Feel free to post a ticket here.

FAQ:

  1. I managed to hide my minimap icon, how do I turn it on again?
    • Just simply type "/portals".
  2. I'm using FuBar, is it possible to use this addon with it?
    • You can't use exactly this version, but here you can find the same addon, that works as FuBar plugin.
  3. Does it support teleportation items like engineering teleports or Kirin Tor rings?
    • Yes, since version 1.8.

  • So Teleport:Dalaran will remain on my actionbars.. however all the others are neatly sorted next to my minimap - thanks to your Broker_Portals. Should suffice for now :).

  • Garagantua: Was thinking about it, but haven't found any easy way to do this. But I might get into it at some point.

  • Thank you for making my actionbars cleaner :).

    But I've got one item on my wish-list: a default portal/teleport. In most cases, I right-click the minimap button just to chose Dalaran portal; if this is not the case, it mostly is Dalaran teleport. Could you add an option "default if button is left-clicked"? That would allow me to bind it to Port:Dala, while still giving access to all other portals/teleports without hassle.

  • Hey, CrazyBenny, is there a way I could remove the hover list? It overlaps with the dropdown and is quite annoying - I need to move my mouse away and then back.

  • will be fixed in next release

  • Basiclife: As written in description, the only command is /portals for reseting minimap button. The left click to cast is kinda tricky, I already tried it myself and even got a patch from some othe guy in the past, but I never got a solution working as I'd like. SO I'm afraid this wont happen.

  • Hi, When I right-click, I get the list of portsals/teleports/etc... and the most recently selected one shows in the minimap icon, however, left-clicking at this point does nothing. Should this re-cast the most recent one?

    If not, may I suggest it as a feature?

    Also, some simple documentation of command lines (if any) would be shiny :)

    Lastly, if you;re using left-click for most recent spell, an option to lock the minimap icon..

    I know it's asking a lot and you're doing this for the hell of it but please do consider the above

    Thanks for a really handy addon - you've saved me 8 actionbar slots (and numerous trips to my spell book!)

  • (To clarify - I meant left-clicking the minimap icon after the teleport/portal is complete and list of portals is no longer visible)

    Thanks

  • is there anyway we could get the tool tip bar to open with a shift click or something. Everytime I stick my mouse over the icon tooltips comes up and covers the portals toolbar. Its just a little annoying but just a suggestion. Something that I think could improve it, but fine with if you can't change it

  • shad0h: ok, I'll change the text to Portals. I can't do anything to show or hide the text, this is titan related stuff, so turn to its author.

    Definitely a great addon. I used to run DAG, but it just was a bad interface compared to this.

    One lazy request I have relates to using this mod with Titan Panel.
    The "full name" in the mod lua is Broker_Portal, and I am forced to have that appear along with the icon.
    Would love if you could either shorten the Full Name to something like "Portals" or code to allow only icon / name display.

    I say lazy request, because at the moment I just update the lua with the shorter name, but with each update I need to remember to do that again. Additionally auto mod updaters like Curse detect that change and stop looking for updates.

    Thanks in advance for considering this change request.

    Great addon!

    I don't use addons such as Titan or Fubar. I wanted something simple that was a complete standalone and wasn't a memory hog. This delivers.

    Hello,

    I wanted to suggest a few "design" changes. (Thanks for adding the last ones I thought shiould be implimented, the Heart Cooldown and the Rune counts.)

    1- Seperate the Teleports/Portals Rune count on the tooltip so they each have one line.
    2- Seperate the Teleports and the Portals on the selection list so they dont appear to "mash" together.

    Just suggestions .. hope you consider them.

    Thanks for a great addon.

    I have several 80's and one class I haven't tried yet is a mage. Turns out I love them but was looking for something to support their portals (shes hit lv 20 in 3 days with casual play) this was suggested for me, but the lv 80 only stuff kinda is a turn off. Though it wont take me long to get her to 80 even with just casual play, more so with the shoulder gear she got that boosts exp gain by 10%, it's still a downer that this addon don't support those lower in level.

    Oh well, time to find something that is more user friendly.
