Did anyone find something out?
I have a WeakAura that reacts to certain kind of chat commands and since yesterday I cannot react to commands posted in the guild chat any more.
Things I've tried:
- Get the 'real' chat value with loadstring() and asset()
- Produce an error message, read it into a variable and filter out the string using pcall()
Both did not work. The substitution seems to be made at a level we cannot interact with at all. It seems there is no possibility to resolve the |Kv#|k notation into their counterpart. Any other ideas to try?
Something I'm going to try later:
It might work using the addon channel or something similar which implies sending the |Kv#|k string to other players, since the value is player dependant and has to be resolved at this time. But it could be that you keep seeing the masked value and the other player would have to resend it to you to finally get it in clear text...

Putting it into a EditBox results in an empty string. GetText() afterwards also.
