Text chat bug, not working

I was working on some macros for my players and all of a sudden the chat for my account, as well as my players chat doesn't work anymore. Please if anyone has a suggestion, help me...

This sounds like a corrupted Chat Archive. A game's Creator is often able to fix issues with their Text Chat by  clearing the Chat Archive  (note: not  clearing your current Chat Log ). A GM might want to copy/back up the Chat Archive before the Creator clears it.
Thanks Keith, I already gave this a try and it fixed it right up. Thank you for your help anyway.

It would be nice if there was some sort of catch in place to keep chat logs from becoming corrupt.
I'm experiencing something very similar. Was testing/learning the macro system last night and it seems the page is loading with an error. Can a bad expression in a previous template brick the chat? (Archives look fine) I've since deleted the potentially offending macros, and am a player not the GM, so I can't just blow up the chat history. What I'm seeing in developer tools is: Uncaught (in promise) DOMException play @ app.js?1569339984:94 r @ app.js?1569339984:551 (anonymous) @ app.js?1569339984:551 C.each.C.forEach @ base.js?1568130237:6 u.<computed> @ base.js?1568130237:7 _scanForNewPlays @ app.js?1569339984:551 r @ base.js?1568130237:6 setTimeout (async) (anonymous) @ base.js?1568130237:6 (anonymous) @ app.js?1569339984:548 trigger @ base.js?1568130237:7 (anonymous) @ app.js?1569339984:548 (anonymous) @ base.js?1568130237:6 setTimeout (async) C.delay @ base.js?1568130237:6 C.defer @ base.js?1568130237:6 initialize @ app.js?1569339984:548 t.Model @ base.js?1568130237:7 T.i @ base.js?1568130237:8 _prepareModel @ base.js?1568130237:7 add @ base.js?1568130237:7 reset @ base.js?1568130237:7 (anonymous) @ app.js?1569339984:549 (anonymous) @ firebase.2.4.0.js:201 gc @ firebase.2.4.0.js:52 cc @ firebase.2.4.0.js:30 dc @ firebase.2.4.0.js:29 h.Kb @ firebase.2.4.0.js:220 h.Ld @ firebase.2.4.0.js:188 Eh.Ld @ firebase.2.4.0.js:178 (anonymous) @ firebase.2.4.0.js:176 yh @ firebase.2.4.0.js:170 La.onmessage @ firebase.2.4.0.js:169 jquery-1.9.1.js:4421 Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #sheet-rolltemplate-weapon-attack {{weaponName= Kiku-Ichimonji     at Function.Sizzle.error (jquery-1.9.1.js:4421)     at tokenize (jquery-1.9.1.js:5076)     at select (jquery-1.9.1.js:5460)     at Function.Sizzle [as find] (jquery-1.9.1.js:3998)     at init.find (jquery-1.9.1.js:5576)     at jQuery.fn.init.init (jquery-1.9.1.js:196)     at new jQuery.fn.init (jquery.migrate.js:211)     at jQuery (jquery-1.9.1.js:62)     at Object.d20.textchat.incoming (app.js?1569339984:559)     at a (app.js?1569339984:559)
Hello Andrew B., If it becomes corrupted in any way, the Creator/DM will have to  fix the issues with the Text Chat by  clearing the Chat Archive  (note: not  clearing your current Chat Log ). As an additional precautions, the Creator/DM may want to copy/back up the Chat Archive before the Creator clears it. If the issue still persists after they clear the Chat Archive, then let us know.  Thanks!
