🛡️ ChatGuard v1.9.3 – Changelog

NEW: Quick-Filter Panel (One-Click Ban)


Instant Blacklist:
Added a new section with checkboxes for the most annoying TBC spam terms: Layer, Boost, Gold, and Summ.

Zero-Effort Filtering: Checking these boxes instantly bans these words without you having to manually type them into the custom list.

NEW: UI & Layout Optimization

 

Streamlined Design: Resized the Blacklist and Whitelist text areas to fit the new Quick-Filter section perfectly onto a single page without scrolling.

Improved Visual Hierarchy: Standardized spacing and font sizes for a more professional "Blizzard-native" look in the Addon settings.

NEW: Robust Filtering Logic

 

Manual Regex Trimming: Replaced the unreliable global trim() function with a custom Lua-pattern match. This ensures that words followed by accidental spaces or commas are still caught by the filter.

Enhanced Performance: Optimized the search loop to prioritize Quick-Filters, keeping your CPU usage near zero even in high-population cities like Shattrath or Ironforge.


Current Commands:

/cg – Opens the settings menu.

/cg wl – Instantly toggles between Blacklist and Whitelist modes.
