Usage

The HUD window

When the addon detects uncollected items in chat, a small window appears on your screen showing one button per player who posted those items. The window is hidden when there are no pending buttons.

┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│         Get yo Loot!                │
│ PlayerName has 3 items you need  X  │
│ OtherPlayer has 1 item you need  X  │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘

The window can be dragged to any position on screen. Its position is saved between sessions per account.

Player buttons

Each button displays the player's name and the number of uncollected items they posted. The window width automatically adjusts to the longest button currently visible.

Hovering

  • Hovering over the row highlights the player name in gold to indicate it is clickable.
  • Hovering over the X turns it red.

Clicking the row

Clicking anywhere on the row (but not the X) drafts a request message in the chat input box:

  • Group mode (default): the message is prefixed with /g and sent to group chat.
  • Whisper mode: the message is prefixed with /w <PlayerName> and sent as a whisper.

The message format is:

I need these items: [Item Link], [Item Link] from PlayerName. [SamisTrialHelper]

After clicking, the button is removed from the HUD and the item record is cleared.

Long item lists and message splitting

ESO limits chat messages to 350 characters. If a player posted many items, the addon automatically splits them into multiple messages. After you send the first message (by pressing Enter), the next chunk is immediately populated in the chat box, ready for you to send. This continues until all items have been requested.

Clicking the X

Clicking the X dismisses the button and removes the item record without sending any message. Use this if you already have the items, collected them via another means, or simply want to clear the notification.

Updating records

If the same player posts more item links later in the same session, the addon appends the new items to their existing button rather than creating a duplicate. The button label updates to reflect the new total count.

Zone changes

By default, all tracked records and buttons are cleared when you change zones. This can be disabled in the settings.
