Cataclysm Classic, pre MoP.
Pizzapi, Mankirk.
I am getting a Lua UI bug that’s preventing me from crafting leather.
I was a prolific crafter during Wrath of the Lich king. I have many many recipes of both enchanting and leatherworking.
However, since a few days ago I get the following bug when trying to open the leatherworking window:
I have deleted all my old addons. I’ve done repair installation. I’ve deleted everything in the addons directory. And many things in settings.
The bug still occurs, and is as follows:
