Chat Class Color being removed about elvui HOT 9 CLOSED

Sounds like you have an addon that is changing the settings.

Type in chat in game
/edebug on

Then check if the chat colours are working. If so, test in the troubleshooting mode (only ElvUI) to see if you still have the issue.

If you have it with only ElvUI (not enabling your other addons), type in chat in game
/estatus
and upload a full ui screenshot (no cropping) showing the issue and the status panel.

Issue Persists with /edebug on. Screenshot attached.

It will because it's a cvar. Redo the chat install.

I redo it regularly. I run install and set CVAR and reset chat and it works again, but then falls off after a period.

In that screenshot, it looks like you have tested - chat colours have been removed and then done the troubleshooting steps and the status panel and screenshot.

/edebug on

Then do the cvars / chat part of the install to get the chat colours back

test with only ElvUI

Does it happen? (Don’t enable other addons, just test with ElvUI)

I haven’t seen the issue with only ElvUI. There are quite a few addons that change the cvars and remove the chat colours.

from elvui.

Correct. Once I redo the install and set CVAR, it does not fix. I have to hit the 3rd step and "setup chat" to fix the issue. CVAR does not solve it. Once I setup/reset chat - the colors return for a time... but then after a period go away again. I have not been able to identify what action is causing them to be removed again. Repeating the chat setup steps again corrects the issue... but it also removed the extra chat windows I create, as well as the font size I set.

ElvUI doesn’t change the chat colours once set.

There are other addons that remove the class colours

prat, chatter, leatrix, WA - are only some of the addons people have had the issue with.

I'll review addons and isolate.

For the ticket - you need to test with only ElvUI. If another addon is changing it, that isn’t anything ElvUI can control.
