I got that error when trying to move my Debuff/Buff frame and it wouldn’t let me save my edit.
If it happens consistently, like you do /reload, then enter Edit mode and first thing move the Debuff/Buff frame, and the error happens nearly ever time, then it’s probably an issue with an addon.
If you have any addons that are either related to moving or replacing UI parts, disable those first and see if the issue fixes itself. If not then go with the brute-force by halves, disable everything except half your addons, try again, if the error occurs, disable another half of what is left, if it goes away enable half of the remaining, etc…
If the error happens with no addons, check this support article on resetting your UI https://us.battle.net/support/en/help/article/7549
I disabled all addons and it still happens, seems to be when UI frames overlap for example the Buff frame slightly overlaps on the map frame but it doesn’t affect my map.
Follow the UI reset support article steps. They don’t take long to do, I would recommend moving the WTF, Interface, and Cache folder to outside of World of Warcraft folder instead of just renaming them.
This doesn’t work. I’ve disabled, deleted, moved appropriate addons and folders and my UI no matter what can’t be edited. The same LUA error comes up and any adjustments made to my UI aren’t saved.
There needs to be a different fix.
Did you also do /console cvar_default ?
Its a bug with Edit Mode introduced on the November 28 hotfix.
Current workaround: in Edit Mode, turn on Raid Frames and Boss Frames, then /reload. Do not turn those two back off until the bug is fixed.

Thanks that worked! on an off topic each time i scroll down my guilds roster it tends to jump back to top frequently. Any work arounds for that?
Not experiencing this, but I did notice some offline members have their names indented so far that most of their name gets cut off.
