code is working just after a /reload

[Luaerror]

Hello,

I wrote a small spell announce, but this code just works after a /reload and I can't find any code error.
I tried to make a Initializing function with "PLAYER_LOGIN" event but it doesn't change anything.

Please, can anybody give me an idea why it's happening?

Code in the following link: spell_announce.lua

I didn't go looking through to find the cause of your reported behaviour, but I did notice that line 11 has a potential conflict. CHAT is a global string already, yet you redefine it as "SAY" (also a global string). To fix this, change line 11 to read

local chat = "SAY"

For reference, here are the global strings: https://www.townlong-yak.com/framexm...balStrings.lua

Notes
This function will not return any values before the PLAYER_LOGIN event on a fresh login. If you need to hold the player's GUID in a variable, you must delay populating that variable until the PLAYER_LOGIN event fires. If you populate your variable by calling UnitGUID in the main chunk, your addon will not work on a fresh login, only after reloading the UI.

This isn't really a problem because the global variable isn't used in the scope.

MunkDev and myrroddin, Thank you for answering my question.

The problem was solved after I created a event for PLAYER_LOGIN to get player GUID.
