I've stumbled into a strange issue and I feel like I'm missing something simple.

/item "Holy Water" <me> works fine but when I
/console send @all /item "Holy Water" <me>
I get a traditional in-game command error on all characters.

All my other send commands are still working fine but the same thing happened when I wrote a new send macro for Utsusemi, the receiving character gets the same command error.

I've checked and re-checked, as far as the spelling/syntax everything is correct, I changed it to different items/spells/JAs and they all work.

Any ideas where the conflict is coming from?

Thanks for the idea, still the same command error. The same macro works when switched to /console send @all "Remedy" <me>, they all pop a remedy. Weird.

Thanks, that worked!

Strange because like I said the same macro works if I sub out "Holy Water" w/ "Remedy" but hey! I'm not gonna argue success, thanks again.

Probably because either its a single word or shortcut.

Anyway
Code
 NotesPermalink
Quotes are not handled well. Try using the shortcuts addon.

Instead of this:

//send mule /ma \"Cure II\" Main
Use this:

//send mule cure2 Main
Or use single quotes like this:

//send mule /ma 'Cure II' Main
