Any way to get subscription time left for an account?
 
I spend lot's of time searching for solution, but didn't found anything, so I think it's not possible, but maybe...
I would like to get information about how much game time left for subscription or time till next payment.
Any suggestions? :)

I'm 99.999% sure that there is no way for an addon to get this information.

There's no reason for this information to be even sent to the game client, it's strictly an issue for the login server.

This information is available in client's memory, and even lua, but only from GlueXML environment:
Code:
GetBillingPlan
GetBillingTimeRemaining
There's no legit way to get it from FrameXML env.

That is probably beside the point.

No offence, but are you aware what this forum is all about?

Maybe just before it runs out, but I guess then it's too late :)

Looking at his/her other posts, they don't seem to have a good understanding of what this forum is about, and don't seem to have much interest in actually reading posts before replying with a "helpful" answer. Considering it's a brand new account, and all the posts are borderline off-topic, I'd guess it's probably a spammer trying to be clever and make a few legit-ish posts before starting the spam.

Or it could just be that English is not their first language.

Maidgirl 09-26-15 08:03 PM
Or I could be wondering why an addon is needed for something not really in game related, and very trivial as it says everytime you start your launcher?

Seerah 09-26-15 09:03 PM
Since this is in the authoring discussion section of the forums, I assume that the OP was asking how to get this information to display in an addon. :)

Why are you even posting on an addon authoring forum? By your logic, we should all just live on spam and wonder bread, because burgers and ice cream and truffles aren't really needed, and it's trivial to just scoop some spam out of the can, plop it on a slice of wonder bread, and call it a meal. :rolleyes:

I would like to point out that you are all getting off topic.

This. ^^ Knock it off.

Yea, it loot's like it's not possible to get this information at that moment.
Only thing i found in FrameXML/UIParent.lua is this:
Lua Code:
  1. -- ...
  2.     elseif ( event == "BILLING_NAG_DIALOG" ) then
  3.         StaticPopup_Show("BILLING_NAG", arg1); -- arg1 = minutes left till the end of subscription
  4.     elseif ( event == "IGR_BILLING_NAG_DIALOG" ) then
  5.         StaticPopup_Show("IGR_BILLING_NAG");
  6. -- ...
FrameXML/StaticPopup.lua:
Lua Code:
  1. StaticPopupDialogs["BILLING_NAG"] = {
  2.     text = BILLING_NAG_DIALOG;
  3.     button1 = OKAY,
  4.     timeout = 0,
  5.     showAlert = 1
  6. };
  7. StaticPopupDialogs["IGR_BILLING_NAG"] = {
  8.     text = IGR_BILLING_NAG_DIALOG;
  9.     button1 = OKAY,
  10.     timeout = 0,
  11.     showAlert = 1
  12. };
This code triggers with BILLING_NAG_DIALOG or IGR_BILLING_NAG_DIALOG. I don't think we could manually trigger BILLING_NAG_DIALOG event to grab it's argument.
