some example when interacting buttonforge:

open BF: Message: Interface\AddOns\ButtonForge-classic\UILibLayers.lua:17: attempt to index global 'ButtonForgeSave' (a nil value)

close BF: Message: Interface\AddOns\ButtonForge-classic\UILibLayers.lua:33: attempt to index global 'ButtonForgeSave' (a nil value)

creating a bar: Message: Interface\AddOns\ButtonForge-classic\Util.lua:744: attempt to index global 'ButtonForgeSave' (a nil value)

etc.

PM from xfsbill at Curse:

Alright. I've managed to successfully installed the classic addon. After debugging for a while, I realized that some SavedVariables are saved in the character WTF folder. Digging out more, I found that in Classic you seems to absolutely need to declares your variables (specially the tables). If not, when trying to assign values, it will fail.

If you add the following at the end of Declares.lua, you will get a bit further:

BFSave = {};
ButtonForgeSave = {};

In Bar.lua line 326, you need to change

local NumSpecs = GetNumSpecializations()

local NumSpecs = 1;

It doesn't seem to exist in Classic.

Another thing if you want to speed your testing, create 2 macros:

1- Show/Hide Lua Errors

/run if GetCVar("ScriptErrors")=="1" then SetCVar("ScriptErrors","0");print("Show LUA Errors: Off");else SetCVar("ScriptErrors","1");print("Show LUA Errors: On");end

2- Toggle ButtonForge

/click BFToolbarToggle

This last macro will avoid having to go under the Addons menu every time you want to pop the toolbar. You won't it anymore once you got a working BF bar.

Hope that helps. There's still a lot to fix to make this usable but it should get you started.
