Download here!

All settings are saved and persist through sessions!

Interfacing with the addon is done entirely through two commands:

/yap

• Main command that controls most of the parameters
• Simply running /yap will cause the yapper to begin... yapping
• /yap <number> sets the yap interval
  • /yap 30 would send a message every 30 seconds
• /yap <string> sets the yap message
  • /yap I'm a big strong boy! would set the message to "I'm a big strong boy!"

/yapc

• Controls the channel in which yapping takes place
  • The available channels are:
    • CHANNEL - Message to a server or custom chat channel (sent with /1, /2, etc in the default UI); requires channel number for channel argument
    • DND - Enables Away-From-Keyboard status for the player, with text as the custom message seen by others attempting to whisper the player
    • EMOTE - Custom text emotes visible to nearby players (sent with /e in the default UI)
    • GUILD - Messages to guild members (sent with /g in the default UI)
    • INSTANCE_CHAT - Messages to a LFG/LFR instance group (sent with /i in the default UI)
    • OFFICER - Messages to guild officers (sent with /o in the default UI)
    • PARTY - Messages to party members (sent with /p in the default UI)
    • RAID - Messages to raid members (sent with /ra in the default UI)
    • RAID_WARNING - Warning to raid members (sent with /rw in the default UI)
    • SAY - Speech to nearby players (sent with /s in the default UI)
    • WHISPER - Message to a specific character (sent with /w in the default UI); requires name of the character for channel argument
    • YELL - Yell to not-so-nearby players (sent with /y in the default UI)
• Some channels also require special data such as "CHANNEL" and "WHISPER"
  • For WHISPER that is the target being whispered
  • For CHANNEL that is the channel name
• Example:
  • /yapc SAY will make yapper use the say channel (/s)
  • /yapc YELL will use yell channel (/y)
  • /yapc WHISPER will error out - we are missing a recipient!
  • /yapc WHISPER Pinkleta will whisper Pinkleta
  • /yapc CHANNEL world_ru will yap to world channel
