Paste NG

What it does

The chat box takes one line at a time and cuts off long text. Paste NG opens its own window instead: paste your clipboard into the text box, pick the channel from the dropdown and press the Paste button. Text longer than 250 characters is handled too.

You can save a paste and load it again later. The window opens with a command or the minimap icon, and the options are reached through the usual addon settings or a command.

Key features

• Sends multi-line and long text to chat or as commands in one go.
• A dropdown to choose the target channel.
• Save a paste and load it again later.
• A window opened from the minimap icon or a command.

Installation

1. Download the zip and extract it.
2. Move the PasteNG folder inside it into World of Warcraft\_forever_\Interface\AddOns\.
3. Close the game completely and reopen it (/reload alone does not load new files).
4. On the character select screen, check that the addon is ticked in the AddOns list.
