What version of Grid2  are you using (Version is displayed in General/About Tab) ?

v3.1.5

What game client version, classic or retail, windows or mac and language are you using ?

Retail, 12.0.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Adding new buff -> Select Type -> Single Buff -> Name for example Barkskin

Then Placing Buff on an Icon Indicator. When I activate it I see it, as soon as I enter combat it disappears.

Happens with most Defensives but also Symbiotic Blooms from Resto Druid and Innervate

  
Did you try having Grid2 as the only enabled addon and everything else disabled?

No

Was it working in a previous version? If yes, which was the last good one?

Obviously before Midnight it worked.

Do you have an error log of what happened? If you don't see any errors, make sure that error reporting is enabled (`/console scriptErrors 1`) or install [BugSack](https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/BugSack).

No

Please provide any additional information below.

Same buffs work on dander frames, but I dont wanna use this. I love Grid2 and I love that you still put work in it, the default profiles are really great now to start from. Thank you for everything! I also noticed that on entering combat Spell Id's from tooltips disappear, maybe it has something to do with that? But I dont track them by spell id only by aura name which stays the same in combat.

Defensive  buffs are secret in midnight and cannot be tracked individually, they can only be displayed using the filters provided by blizzard:

You have to create a "Blizzards Buffs" status, and in the status filter select:

"Big defensive buff", "External defensive buffs" or "Defensive Buff from Blizzard UnitFrames".

When you create a single buff, if you type the buff spellID, grid2 displays a red warning if the buff is secret and cannot be tracked.

Only a small list of buffs were "desclassified" by blizzard (mostly the healers HOTs and the raid buffs like arcane intelect, mark of the wild, etc.) the rest of the buffs remain secret.

Speaking of that (since I came on this thread for the same issue while checking the addon for Midnight), it seems Dispersion, Fortifying Brew or Fade (probably others, those are the ones I noticed) are not displayed even when ticking the Defensive Buff from Blizzard UnitFrames, does it mean that those buffs are *not* considered defensives by Blizzard and we can't do anything to show them on a Defensive indicator ? :/

Thank you very much for the answer, I kinda expected this to be the case but hoped maybe I just missed a checkbox somewhere ;) Will use the blizzard buffs then on this indicator and hope blizzard will declassify more over time. But healer hots and the ability to color frames again if someone has echo was a huge gain!

and @Heregellas this will most likely be the case, if its not tracked by the blizzard thing then you cant do much about it atm. We can just hope they add more in future patches
