New Report Advertisement blocked

[zaphon]

Blizzard appears to have hot fixed in a new "Report Advertisement" item right below "Report Group" when you right click on a dungeon group. This eliminates the new nested (multiple clicks) way of reporting groups for advertisement, but for whatever reason, it's being blocked by premade-groups-filter.

I'm not sure there's a way around this or not, but wanted to bring it up either way.

NOTE: The other way (report group) still works, but it requires so many clicks to report a group for advertisement now it's not worth the hassle.

1x [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn 'PremadeGroupsFilter' tried to call the protected function 'SendReport()'.

I can reproduce it, but I do not yet have an idea how to fix it. The taint happens as soon as I remove results from the list.

As a workaround, you can filter those groups quite easily either by age < 30 or members > 1 as those groups are usually up for a long time and usually have just one player.

Yeah, most of the time I just use rio > 0 as my filter to get rid of them, but I've been spamming valor runs and those I am looking for someone with no RIO and I'm running with 2 friends, so need to find groups with 1 or 2 people in it. That's why I've been noticing it so much more.

These taints are almost always caused by using the Blizzard provided UIDropDownMenu functions. Highly recommend using LibUIDropdownMenu if you have any dropdowns that interact in anyway with code that can become tainted (def the case when working with LFG).

It's not the dropdown as I'm already using my own dropdown menu. Taints seem to come from modifying the list of premade groups.

It is a temporary solution to allow reporting advertisements to follow the route of reporting teams.
like this
LFGList_ReportAdvertisement = LFGList_ReportListing

Or consider deleting the report ad

Good suggestion, will consider it.

It looks like Blizzard finally fixed this in the 11.2.5 patch. From the official patch notes:

Fixed an issue that was causing addons to get errors after the player reported a group using Report Advertisement.

I have tested this by removing the PGF.FixReportAdvertisement() function call and can confirm that I don't get an error.

Could you please remove this workaround so that ad reporting is again possible without the dialog?
