Pay special attention to the section labelled "Patch Day, Oh Noes!"

If you're having problems with scaling, you can either scale all your UI up by some factor to compensate, disable your addons until new versions are released, or if you're an author, you can fix your code per this note from the 1.9 changes thread:

Q u o t e:

* Added Frame:GetEffectiveScale() to return the new effective scale (Replace old calls to Frame:GetScale() with this for the 'old' result)



If you're having problems with the Blizzard addons not loading due to being "out of date", just remove all the directories in Interface\AddOns starting with BlizzarD_*

Feel free to use this thread to post solutions to common 1.9 issues as they arise.

If you're in a large guild and the guild UI hangs for a while when you open it, try disabling the profanity filter in the interface options screen. This is fixed for 1.9.1

If you're having problems with the Blizzard addons not loading due to being "out of date", just remove all the directories in Interface\AddOns starting with Blizzard_*

If you're having problems with scaling, you can either turn off scaling of the UI until your addons are updated, or disable your addons until new versions are released.
If you're an addon author, you can fix your code per this note from the 1.9 changes thread, plus you don't need to include the UIParent scale in any SetScale() calls, as it's already incorporated into the frame's scale calculation.

Q u o t e:
Reputation pane is empty after a ReloadUI. This is not just 2d-UI related, as in-game NPCs appear as default reps as well. For example, the "Frostwolf Ambassador" in front of Org bank has a yellow name after a ReloadUI even though I'm exalted.


Yes, this is also already fixed for 1.9.1

Q u o t e:
You may notice it looks vaguely like a scrollbar.

IIRC, slouken said it was a bug slated to be fixed in 1.9.1


No, it's due to the scrollbars being re-anchored in 1.9. There's another post that shows the changes that need to be made in bold. I can't find it offhand though...

Q u o t e:
slouken, you posted that this was fixed in 1.9.1, but it is still broken.


Whoops, I accidentally made the fix in 1.10 instead. :) It's fixed for 1.9.3 now. Thanks!
