Blizzard UI party/boss frames snapping to bottom left corner

When I got dragonriding, I moved the encounter bar somewhrre it was easier for me to see. When I went to save my profile, the UI would not save, as the button did nothing. When I clicked save and exit, my party frames and the boss frames snapped to the bottom left corner of the screen, covering the chat. “save and exit” also didn’t exit Edit mode (effectively just saved it).
I tried importing A friend’s UI profiles but the issue persisted through, including moving ALL of the profile elements over to the left (almost as if the game thinks my UI starts about 1/3-1/2 way into my screen). Resetting the Resolution did nothing.
I then followed the steps as set out on Blizzard’s forums (https://eu.battle.net/support/en/article/7549). Deleted any add-ons that could interfere with the UI (namely Zygor and ElvUI). Reset CVARS to default. Renamed the three folders (Cache, Interface, and WTF) to CacheOld, InterfaceOld, and WTFOld and rebooted the game. Even so the issue still persisted (and this time there were no addons present in game at all). This must be an issue with the UI on the Blizzard end, and this only became an issue once I got dragon riding unlocked (moving the encounter bar where it would be easy to see for my dragon’s energy is when the problem began).

The ONLY workaround is clicking to reset the party frames/boss frames to default. This seemed to actually keep them, well, where they are defaulted to without snapping. It’s a bad fix to the issue as the whole point was to customise the UI to how you like it. but at this point what else can I do?

Has anyone else had this? Did anyone manage to solve it? I love the Blizz Ui and I’d be saddened to have to give it up.

I have issues too with lua errors. Everytime i move with portals,summons etc. After loading screen i need reload UI. That means every single time i join dungeon etc. Its annoying. Problem repairing by rename folders and uninstall addons doesnt work. It looks like game after delete one of addons find next one what its called problematic. But was never problematic before even after new expansion. Literally game try to find every step to push you to delete all addons. Most funny is when i try play without addons blizz edit mode after safe just random move action bars and others stuff after every loading screen and it can be temporary fixed by esc-editmode-esc

If i will not /reload i cannot use spells at all. Its why.

I got the same problem, though I cannot say when it began.
It could be, that it did begin with dragonriding.

I have been able to reproduce this bug when the frame is set to > 100%

If you set the frame to 100%, the move it to the position you want and save, it behaves normally
