Chat Tab Options Reset Recently?

HerowynKerowyn · June 18

For the past day or so, all of my in‑game chat tabs have suddenly started showing the exact same channels, even though each tab is supposed to be different. I’ve had to manually re‑set the options on every tab for every character.

I already tried /reloadui and checked my addons (pChat, etc.), but the issue keeps happening.

Has anyone else seen this recently?
Is this likely an addon issue?

Any suggestions for troubleshooting greatly appreciated.

This just started happening to me today, was fine in the morning, but when I got home from work its doing this now. Wish I could offer some help but kinda puzzled by it as well.

The same thing happened to me too.

As an example, my Tells Tab is only supposed to have "Tell" check under Options but consistently the "Sys" box is being re-checked in that tab and all my other ones.

I reviewed every setting in pchats Addon and I reviewed the Social and Interface settings, but nothing seems relevant.

I don't think the LUI Addon is doing it - I did check some of its voluminous settings. It has had updates 2-3 times in the last couple of days. I hate to disable that addon, but I may have to do that tomorrow as a test. It's too late for me to troubleshoot that tonight.

Thanks for confirming I wasn't losing my mind.

LUI's latest updates included changes to how messages are sent in the chat channels. Disable it. Change a tab to the channels you want. Logout. Login. Check if the channels have reset. If not, enable LUI. Logout. Login. Check channels again.

Thank you so much! It absolutely was LUI Extended Addon causing the issue.

The Chat Output LibChatMessage Choose Chat Message Display Methoad was set to "Print to All Tabs" which I changed to "Print to Specific Tabs" and then unchecked the "System" On/Off column for each tab I did NOT want the LUI chat messages appearing in (see attached screenshots for clarification).
