Fixing crusty old chat addon, Lynchat for 9.0

As you might see I've done the generic " add "BackdropTemplateMixin and "BackdropTemplate")" to createframe" that seems to fix a lot of my aging addons, but in this case it didn't change anything. Seemingly, the only function of the addon that doesn't work is stripping some edit-box highlighting
Error:

Code:

1x LynChat2\window.lua:257: attempt to call method 'SetBackdrop' (a nil value)

[string "@LynChat2\window.lua"]:257: in function <LynChat2\window.lua:190>

[string "@LynChat2\window.lua"]:302: in function `StyleTheChat'

[string "@LynChat2\window.lua"]:321: in main chunk

addon files attached.

Take a look at this post https://www.wowinterface.com/forums/...8&postcount=19 might help you.

I've seen that, Unfortunately I don't have a clue where to put that.

Presumably window.lua line 256 (just before the line causing the error by calling xx:Setbackdrop(...))

Code:

if not xxx.SetBackdrop then

    Mixin(xxx, BackdropTemplateMixin)

end

xx:Setbackdrop(...)

xxx being whatever the frame name is in the code.

This worked:

Code:

        if not editbox.SetBackdrop then

                Mixin(editbox, BackdropTemplateMixin)

        end

        editbox:SetBackdrop(chatBackdrop)

Thank you.
