MacOS 15.1, fully updated. Text replacement worked fine before upgrading, now it does not. I can add that my iPhone 12 Pro works fine using the same replacement settings.
Anyone?

Add a new one - does that work?
If yes - remove & re-add the one that wasn't working.
If no - test in a new user, test in Safe Mode

No it did not help. If I find time and energy, I will test with a new account. Bugger.
I had a similar thing happen, but it was my iPhone that wasn't working. This is how I got around it—hasn't been as buggy since... https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/text-replacement-not-syncing.2344200/post-32959931

Thanks, I will try this tonight and report back 
Nope: Did'nt work. Note that I could not use these steps on my (working) iPhone, so I did it on my (not working) Mac Mini instead. BUT when I added a new phrase on the iPhone, it began to work on the Mac too! Weird, no?
