lint / lint (push) Has been cancelled
Three fixes addressing the reported 'auras silently vanish on next save'
bug, plus collateral robustness in the same code path:
1. WeakAuras.lua PLAYER_LOGIN handler (~L1297-1308): the downgrade branch
fired StaticPopup_Show('WEAKAURAS_CONFIRM_REPAIR', ...) synchronously
inside the event handler. On the CoA reworked StaticPopup system this
fires too early and silently fails to show the dialog, which means
neither OnAccept nor OnCancel ever runs, so Private.Login() is never
called. With no displays loaded, the next PLAYER_LOGOUT serializes an
empty table over WeakAurasSaved and the user loses all their auras.
Wrap the call in C_Timer.After(0, ...) so it fires after the event
frame stack has unwound and the popup system is ready.
This is the most likely root cause of the user report 'my auras don't
save anymore' that surfaced on the PTR last week.
2. WeakAuras.lua WEAKAURAS_CONFIRM_REPAIR popup (~L2263-2277): OnShow and
OnCancel both unconditionally dereferenced self.data.reason. If the
popup is ever fired with nil or malformed data this throws and blocks
Private.Login() from running via the OnCancel fallback. Guard with a
nil check and default reason to 'unknown' (treated as the automatic /
downgrade path, which is the safe default that still invokes Login).
3. Types.lua WeakAuras.class_types (~L1187): only populated from
CLASS_SORT_ORDER, which on CoA contains only the 11 vanilla classes.
The 21 custom CoA classes were silently missing from every class
filter dropdown in the options UI. Add a fallback loop over
LOCALIZED_CLASS_NAMES_MALE for anything CLASS_SORT_ORDER didn't
already register, mirroring the pattern the spec builder uses at
~L3829.
WeakAuras Ascension (3.3.5a backport by Bunny67 & NoM0Re)
Support the original backporter: 
WeakAuras is a powerful and flexible framework that allows the display of highly customizable graphics on World of Warcraft's user interface to indicate buffs, debuffs, and other relevant information. This addon was created to be a lightweight replacement for Power Auras but has since introduced more functionalities while remaining efficient and easy to use.
Features
- An intuitive and powerful configuration interface
- Custom textures including all textures from Power Auras and Blizzard's spell alerts
- Progress bars and textures that show the exact duration of auras
- Displays based on auras, health, power (mana, rage, soul shards, holy power, etc.), cooldowns, combat events, runes, totems, items, and many other triggers
- Preset and user-defined animations
- Custom side-effects such as chat announcements or sounds
- Grouping, which allows multiple displays to be positioned and configured at the same time
- CPU optimizations such as conditional loading/unloading of displays, modularity, and prevention of full aura scanning
- Powerful customization options, such as animation paths, on-show/on-hide code, and custom triggers, for Lua-savvy users
