For those people that like to separate their Guild Chat from the rest of the chatter then this is for you.

Utilising the InfoPanel section of nUI it sets up a GuildChat window where all guild related chatting will appear. This includes the Message of the Day as well as Officer chat where applicable and Achievement messages for guild members.

Currently only enUS and enGB languages are available at this time but the ability is there to incorporate for those that wish to translate the localization file.

Just extract the file and place the extracted folder into your Interface/Addons folder just like any other addon.

Change Log:

2.01.02
-------
Changed TOC to reflect 3.2 compatibility.

2.01.01
-------
Realised that the removal of the chat window wasn't working as planned. It will now correctly remove (delete) the chat window using a slash command /nuigc disable and can be re-enabled immediately with /nuigc enable. If you decide to remove the addon after calling /nuigc disable you will not get
the chat overwriting text problem. I could automatically do this on logging out but then any changes to the font will be affected to. Found out via other guild addons that you only need to call GUILD_ROSTER_UPDATE once to get the current up to date guild information before the addon starts.
So I call it once in VARIABLES_LOADED and again whenever you are offered an invite to a guild with GUILD_INVITE_REQUEST and GUILD_INVITE_CANCEL.

v2.01.00
---------
Recoded and cleaned up the code to make it more readable and changeable if that becomes necessary later on.

Added extra functions and events to keep track of the current status of the player guild including display of online and total guild members in the guild tab title.

Separated localization into separate files for future expansion posibitlities and using its own table instead of latching onto the nUI one.

Corrected SIMPLE_CHAT test so that the message only appears when the user has the simple chat option checked and not all the time.

RosterUpdate() function seems to throw out a system message whenever it is used on a character not in a guild. However, you need to call it at least once to update your characters that are in a guild.
So I cut down the calls to GuildRoster outside of Guild related functionality to a minimum to cut that message output.

v1.02.02
--------
Removed font settings so that player changes are not overridden. Corrected some code so that when addon is disabled it gets removed properly.

v1.02.01
--------
Changed Interface number in TOC to reflect 3.1.0 compatibility.

v1.02.00
---------
Now added GUILD_ACHIEVEMENT messages to guild window.

v1.01.00
--------
This InfoPanel Plugin allows the user to have their guild chat in a separate screen accessible as required.

For Users:
----------
Every 10 seconds ( seemed a reasonable time frame to use ) the addon will make a call to the GuildRoster before grabbing your Guild Name and rename the guild chat tab accordingly. If it is unable to locate a guild name it will mark you as not in guild. All guild chat including message of the day and
officer chat and achievements for other guild members should now be placed in this window. Also, the guild tab will show the number of members online and total count.

Changing Status Timer:
-------------------------------------
If you wish to change the time taken between tests then change the lua file so that 'chatrefresh_timer > 10.0' is changed to a higher number.


Foreign Language Versions
-------------------------
At the present this plugin does not support multi language settings.
enUS and enGB versions will work fine however and the ability to add new languages is possible by creating a new localization file and changing the nUI_InfoPanel_GuildChat_L values accordingly for said new file.
