Earlier this week when the new patch/season went live, I kept getting lua errors from in game every time I opened game options (ie: in game shop, menu tab).
I followed the advice that someone posted to reset the user interface and it worked!
Until today when updated some of my addons: dbm, plater, and raider io if it matters…and now the lua errors have returned again.
I tried resetting the user interface as I did previously, and it is no longer working: now I get the errors no matter what. See below to link to original thread, along with lua errors I’ve been receiving:

Lua errors as of today (currently 4):
