Modifier macros stopped working overnight

Guides UI and Macro

Hey all, been using modifier macros for all my traps and serpent sting for weeks & this morning I woke up and found that they no longer cast on my primary target, nor do they show the tooltip. They’re all a variant of this:
#showtooltip
/cast [nomodifier] serpent sting: [modifier:ctrl, target=focus] serpent sting

Did they change something overnight?

2 
#showtooltip
/cast [mod:ctrl,@focus,harm,nodead] [] Serpent Sting

but no, nothing has changed.

The ctrl key is keyboard by default pet abilities (ctrl-1 to ctrl-0) and unless you unbind those, macros using mod:ctrl won’t work because the keybind eats the ctrl. Obviously you must have done that at some past point because you had the macro working. I’m thinking one of the following happened:

  1. You played around with the character-specific keybind checkbox resulting in erasing keybind changes like unbinding the pet abilities.
  2. Wow glitched and erased some of your settings. This has randomly happened to me a few times. No reason. Just happens. Given how frequently I play the game, start and stop it, the failure rate is acceptable. But yeah, it’s annoying.

Check to see if ctrl-1 to 0 is back to being keybound to anything.
