Describe the bug

Whenever I enable friendly nameplates, I get an error regarding LibCustomGlow multiple times per second.

Do you have an error log of what happened?

To Reproduce

This error occurs multiple times per second whenever I have friendly nameplates enabled in dungeons and raids.

Did you try having WeakAuras as the only enabled addon and everything else (especially something like ElvUI) disabled?
Yes, I have (the error persisted)

Which version of WeakAuras are you using?
2.16.6

Are you on World of Warcraft Classic or Retail?

• Classic
• [ X ] Retail

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

Additional Info

I've tried going through the WeakAuras.lua file and checking for references to "LibCustomGlow", and deleting those WeakAuras. Afterwards I was still experiencing this issue (even after a game restart). If I delete my entire WeakAuras.lua SV file, the issue is gone (but so are all my WAs)

WeakAuras.zip

It does not look like an error in weakauras but in the aura you use called "NamePlateGlow - Unit TSU"
Btw the error show you are not using last release version 2.16.6 but the version 2.15.5

That's very strange. I don't have a WA by that name. Maybe an update for the addon went wrong on my end? I'll reinstall the addon.

Are you sure this is not a very old error ?

It turns out was a very old error, thanks for the tip. Here's the new one:

Removing the "Thing from Beyond" WA has resolved the issue. Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction, turns out all I needed was a lesson in using Bugsack. Sorry for wasting your time.
