Any plans for an update for this?

Unfortunately with this add-on loaded it is now blocking me completely from typing anything into chat I don't know if something has changed with a hot fix but it's unusable now

Did you give up on this?

In reply to iErrorQT: I'm thinking they did and just didn't bother to tell the rest of us. If I knew how to make addons, I would go ahead and fix this.

3x [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn 'Misspelled' tried to call the protected function 'SendWhisper()'.

[!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua]:540: in function '?'

[!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua]:524: in function <!BugGrabber/BugGrabber.lua:524>

[C]: in function 'SendWhisper'

[Blizzard_ChatFrameBase/Shared/ChatFrameEditBox.lua]:300: in function 'SendText'

[Blizzard_ChatFrameBase/Shared/ChatFrameEditBox.lua]:407: in function <...s/Blizzard_ChatFrameBase/Shared/ChatFrameEditBox.lua:403>

[C]: ?

Any update on that update?

Love the addon--- the highlight color tho is a little hard to see when in party chat. Possibly make the addon's blue a little darker?

I’m running into an issue where I can’t send chat messages during M+ runs. I haven’t tested it in other instances, so I’m not sure if it’s limited to that. I really love your addon and hope there’s a fix. <3

In reply to Hitaku: blocks in all combat instances, needs urgent fixing

In reply to Hitaku: I am having the same problem. Hope there can be a fix for this soon. really love the addon and have been using it for years, can't even remember when I started to use it, it has been so long.

Any plans to fix TBC anniversary?

In reply to nrpieper: thank you for trying, I know it's a pain what Blizzard did to addons for no reason.

In reply to nrpieper: any plans to update TBC anniversary? It is completely broken and non functional

In reply to nrpieper: Barring rebuilding the editbox as a custom frame from scratch (like I did), as long as you're actively modifying the text in the Blizzard editbox, you're going to taint it and block chatting in lockdown (M+, boss fights, etc.).

You could try to hybridise that solve?

If you're open to suggestions, this could work even though it is stupid:

- Make a new frame that overlays the editbox and hooksecurefunc into it to grab its attributes (text and cursor position, specifically) while the user is typing

- Keep that string invisible to the user, and iterate over it to look for misspellings

- Create a highlight over the word on your custom frame that the user can open and choose from

- Edit the string in your frame then SetText() into ChatFrameNEditBox (whichever one is open).

- Use the cursor position to calculate where the highlight should be relative to the word

Some caveats: When an addon does SetText() on ChatFrameNEditBox, it does temporarily taint that specific execution so it will still be blocked if the user enters a chat lockdown situation while or after SetText() is called.

But you can check for this event. I made a simple function for it:

function Utils:IsChatLockdown()

if C_ChatInfo and C_ChatInfo.InChatMessagingLockdown

and C_ChatInfo.InChatMessagingLockdown() then

return true

end

return false

end

SetText() seems to only taint the string for that particular execution window (as long as all you do is hooksecurefunc it and set attributes) so as long as you don't use it while in chat lockdown, the user should be able to chat.

I've had to wrangle with a lot of similar problems for my own project.

Hey what's going on with your addon man it literally just doesn't let me type a message at all in chat. I personally am trying to use Classic era

Issue with retail at the moment. While addon is enabled every time I hit enter it make the game freeze for 20 seconds.

Not working for TBC Anniversary

Unable to type in M+ Keystone while Misspelled is enabled. I get the error message "Misspelled has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI. You can disable this addon and reload the UI." When disabled I'm able to type fine in the key.
