I tried clicking another one out of the group, same error. Tried the last bar, same error. Decided to reload my UI and noticed that when I came back these bars were no longer in the config window at all.

  Now there are 2 "ghost bars" in 2 of my Dynamic Groups, 2 identical ghost bars in 2 different groups. These ghost bars show up when I go to configure each individual group and show up even after I exit the config, I cannot get rid of them! Before I opened the config there was text on the bars, it read "Error" - - but the text went away, they're blank now.

  Implemented an integrity checker in r131.

  I ended up fixing it by going into WeakAuras.lua. It turns out that while the auras were assigned to the correct group, the group itself did not have them assigned to it - - all I had to do was add the missing auras to controlledChildren.

  Thanks!

  I imported all of my shamans stuff just fine after clearing my savedvariables :D!

  I'll keep my savedvaribles for when you implement that integrity check though, I can't be ass'd to export/import like 90 things haha

  I would not recommend that, especially if you're attempting to Export/Import the offending Dynamic Groups. There are some integrity checks when importing, but I can't guarantee that things wouldn't get worse rather than better! It's pretty likely that you wouldn't be able to import the displays at all, and since Import/Export strings are serialized and compressed, it would be much more problematic to fix the data in that form.

  However, I suppose you could back up your SavedVariables file and then try it. I would be interested in seeing the result, if anything.

  Oh, also, the last two errors you posted are not especially relevant to this bug, but rather pertain to the recent change which caused options tables for the UI to be generated dynamically instead of all at startup. I'm working on that too.

  Additionally, to display your version, use the script

  /script print(WeakAuras.versionString)
  

  Alternatively, if you have an addon that shows LibDataBroker displays, such as Bazooka, you can mouse over WeakAuras' LDB object to see your version.

  Finally, if you post your SavedVariables file here, I could fix it for you.

  Would the problem persist if I exported all of my current stuff, deleted my savedvariables then imported them? Or is there no integrity check when importing them?

  You've desynchronized the group/parent settings on your displays. This used to happen fairly often when Groups were new and the code did not do a good job of keeping their states consistent throughout deletion/renaming/regrouping operations. Unfortunately, it seems that it is still possible to reach an illegal state through normal configuration use.

  I'll try to reproduce this behavior using the steps you described.

  In the meantime, you have two options for making your problem go away. One is to simply delete all of the groups and displays that were involved, and remake them all. The other is to open your SavedVariables file (located at World of Warcraft/WTF/Account/<Account Name>/SavedVariabled/WeakAuras.lua)(this must be done while WoW is closed or it will be rewritten by the WoW client) and edit the values manually. If you're vaguely familiar with the structure of Lua tables, you may be able to do this yourself.

  First, you need to identify all of the groups that may have illegal settings. In each group's table, there will be a field called "controlledChildren", which is a table that specifies all the children of a group. The children are defined as key/value pairs, where the key is the order of the child in the group, and the value is the display id of the child.

  You need to make sure that each child display is only listed as a child of one group. Then, you need to check the table in your SavedVariables for each child display and make sure that it has a field called "parent" that is the id of its parent group.

  If that's too confusing, you'll just have to go with option #1 (deleting everything).

  Also, I suppose I could write a start-up routine that checks the integrity of child/parent values and tries to automatically resolve them. So if you want to wait for such an update, that would solve your problem as well.

  Ugh. I don't even have any Dynamic Groups enabled for my shaman, yet these 2 ghost bars show up on him too. Nothing in the config even hints at these 2 ghost bars, and only the regular stuff is loaded.

  Could you give me a way to flush these bugged bars? :(

  Added some formatting so it didn't look like a cluster of text ;_;
