Hmm but then how does that go into the function? do i need to put each variable into the setpoint? Also the default is purely for reference right? in order to make the actual function default to that i have to use the "or"?

This is where ive gone with it so far and no luck yet with stopping the disconnects..

-- First, define a set of default properties for reference.
local frameDefaults = {
	object = "Frame", -- string
	parent = DashBoardFrame, -- nil or object
	template = nil, -- nil or string
	justify = "RIGHT", -- string; LEFT, RIGHT, or CENTER
	text = "188",
	framewidth = nil,
	texture = nil, -- boolean
	texturepath = nil,
	textureheight = 12,
	texturewidth = 12,
}
-- Now list the actual frames you want to create, as well as any
-- properties that differ from the default ones:
local dashFramesToCreate = {
	["GUI_DashMail"] = {
		texture = true,
		texturepath = [[Interface\AddOns\]] .. addonName .. [[\Media\MailIcon]],
	},
	["GUI_DashQuest"] = {
		object = "Button",
		text = " 25/25",
		texture = true,
		texturepath = [[Interface\AddOns\]] .. addonName .. [[\Media\QuestIcon]],
	},
	["GUI_DashDurability"] = {
		object = "Button",
		text = "  100%",
		texture = true,
		texturepath = [[Interface\Icons\Trade_BlackSmithing]],
	},
	["GUI_DashInventory"] = {
		object = "Button",
		texture = true,
		template = "SecureHandlerClickTemplate",
		text = " 888/888",
		textureheight = SIZE,
		texturewidth = SIZE,
		texturepath = [[Interface\AddOns\]] .. addonName .. [[\Media\BagIcon]],
	},
	["GUI_DashMoney"] = {
		framewidth = 1,
		object = "Button",
		justify = nil,
		text = nil
	},
	["GUI_DashSocial"] = {
		object = "Button",
		template = "SecureHandlerClickTemplate",
		texture = true,
		textureheight = 20,
		texturewidth = 20,
		texturepath = "Interface/FriendsFrame/UI-Toast-FriendOnlineIcon.blp",
	},
	["GUI_DashGuild"] = {

		textureheight = 26,

		text = " 100%",
		textureheight = 10,
		texturewidth = 10,
		texturepath = "Interface/TAXIFRAME/UI-Taxi-Icon-Green.blp",
	},
}

local function DashCreateFrame(name, data)
	local frame = CreateFrame(
		data.object or "Frame",  -- default to "Frame" if not defined
		name,                    -- required
		data.parent or DashBoardFrame, -- default to UIParent
		data.template            -- optional
	)
	frame:EnableMouse(true)
	frame:SetHeight(SIZE)
	frame:SetScript("OnLeave", addon.HideTooltip)
	frame:SetFrameStrata("HIGH")
	if data.framewidth then

	frame.text:SetText(data.text or "188")
	
	if data.object == "Button" then
		frame:RegisterForClicks("AnyUp")

			frame.texture:SetPoint('RIGHT', frame.text, 'LEFT')
		end

	return frame
