Chat wont let me put anything in /1

[Pureless]

Curious bug, more of an annoyance than anything. I had a bug where when i types /1 to chat in general it wouldn't do anything. Wouldnt let me chat. So i left the channel and rejoined to see if it fixed it, and it put general into /2. Now no matter where i go, general is /2, trade /3 etc. And no matter how many times i leave general and rejoin to try to move it to /1 it wont let me. Any ideas how to fix this?

Leave all your channels and start to join them in order.
/leave general
/leave trade
/leave world
/leave localdefense
/leave lookingforgroup
/join general
/join trade
/join localdefense
/join lookingforgroup
/join world
etc etc

To find all channels you're in, right click a chat tab and go to "channels" to see all channels you're in.

Tried that, puts them all back exactly where they were.

Code: Select all

/run name, id = GetChannelName(1); SendChatMessage("/leave " .. name .. ", nil, nil);
/leave general
/leave trade
/leave world
/leave [all other channels]


GetChannelName(channelID) allows you to retrieve the name of the channel and SendChatMessage will do /leave [channelName]

Then join channels and see if you can now have a channel in ID 1.

I suggest turning off all addons for this so it doesn't try to join channels and use up ID 1.

Your script simply threw an error for some reason. But the turning off addons comment gave me an idea, and it seems there was some addon throwing a hidden channel into /1 for some reason. So i just turned that off. Thank you.

Sounds good. Glad I helped with an idea then.
