UI errors

Would appreciate a bit of help pls. I am getting UI errors for a few months when trying to use MiniMap by Fyrakin. Have been using Voltan's with no probs, but prefer Fyrakin. Have tried uninstalling and re-installing the addon and it's associated needs multiple times with no success.
The errors have lessened, but I still can not run it. The errors are:
/EsoUI/Libraries/Utility/ZO_SavedVars.lua:289: operator < is not supported for string < number
stack traceback:
/EsoUI/Libraries/Utility/ZO_SavedVars.lua:289: in function 'CreateExposedInterface'
/EsoUI/Libraries/Utility/ZO_SavedVars.lua:181: in function 'GetNewSavedVars'
(tail call): ?
user:/AddOns/MiniMap/MiniMap.lua:9305: in function 'OnLoaded'
Sry to pest you all, and not sure this is the appropriate area to post this. Any help would be appreciated. I by far am no expert on addons, but can usually figure out what to do when errors occur, this one eludes me, lol.

✭✭✭✭✭usually when getting addons, i always sort by date so it puts the most updated at the top of the list
i dont use a minimap, but last i remember though fyrakins was no longer being updated and likely is not compatible with the current game version unless someone released a patched version
votans addons as far as im aware are still current and being updatedplays PC/NA

✭✭✭I use Votan's minimap addon, and yes it still works fine. The addon mentioned by the OP isn't Votan's so I guess it's one of the others (Fyrakin's perhaps), because Votan's minimap addon is in the Addons/VotansMiniMap subdirectory, not Addons/MiniMap.PC(Steam) / EU / play from Melbourne, Australia / avg ping 3900 -
Mithgil✭✭✭This is the current and updated version of Fyrakin's Minimap. Last update was August 18. Masteroshi430 is constantly updating and tweaking the addon:

I use this and's currently working fine. I also use dozens of other addons so no conflicts that I'm aware of.
PC NA Yes, I use add-ons.0 -

Thanx for the ireply.This is what I use. And I agree, there are normally 2 to 3 updates a week on this addon. I updated to this version as soon as it came out. I always open minion everytime I play, so I update constantly.
None of the updates has fixed the problem. It has been so long now that I do not remember which patch initially started this issue, lol.
I backup my addon folders usually once a month for about a 2 year period.(delete ones older). I'll give my post a few days to see if there is an solution. I have used the backups a few times before over the years with mixed results, so that will be the last chance attmpt. I'll go back a few months. Do not wish to go that route if not necessary tho".
Thanx all for the replies. This is the first time I have had the need to reach out for help here. Thanx for the kindness!!!!0 -

Hi Charvel420,
The error is similar to one you can have when using an add-on which has an embedded & outdated libAddonMenu lib which is short-circuiting the stand alone one the other add-ons use.
When it happens, the saved vars are altered and return e.g a string (text) instead of a number which can cause this error when the add-on tries to do maths or greater than smaller than comparison with the data.
The solution is to:
1: find the add-on which has the embedded libAddonMenu in it's folder, remove it or ask the author to use the stand alone up to date one and remove the embedded version (they are often in a a folder named 'libs" In the add-on folder).
2: Step two is to delete the altered saved variables, here for the minimap, with the game not running, go to the saved variables folder and delete Minimap.lua, once the game restarts you will have reconfigure the minimap and then you are good to go.
Don't hesitate if you have any questions.
EDIT:
I did a big mistake in version 2023.04.17 back in april which altered saved variables, if you have this error since mid April you can go to step 2 directly to solve the problem.Edited by Masteroshi430 on August 26, 2023 3:52PM@Masteroshi430 PC/EU (old French guy playing in English & addon author/maintainer) My addonsDeshaan Honeydew Hors D'Oeuvre <<< FIX THAT TYPO GODDAMMIT!1 -

Masteroshi - I thank you so much! I know a bit about addon probs, but this one stumped me for months, lol. I opted for step 2 only for the first attempt as I figured the patch that caused it was sometime in May. That fixed it for me.
Voltan's is a fine map, but there are some very small little things that I prefer in Fyrakin's that I prefer, and have used his map since I started some years back.
I also thank the community here for being so suppoertive. Until this post I was just reading topics. As this issue has been going on for sometime, figured I'd sign up to ask the question.0 -

Yes, if you need the border pins, a map that rotates when player changes direction or other stuff Votan's minimap doesn't have, go for Fyrakin's minimap, if you don't need these extra features or your PC is starting ageing or you are obessed by performance use Votan's minimap because it is less greedy. 🙂Charvel420 wrote: »Voltan's is a fine map, but there are some very small little things that I prefer in Fyrakin's that I prefer, and have used his map since I started some years back.
