I'm habing trouble getting saved variables to work for saving wishlists in my addon. I found a little tutorial on WoWwiki https://wowwiki-archive.fandom.com/w..._game_sessions that I've been consulting thus far and I'm obviously hitting one of the pitfalls mentioned in the article where I'm loading the variables wrong and overwriting something. Sadly the article doesn't give me any further hints and I've tried to move the variable load around without much results.

So as a small preamble here's some logic what the addon does:

Create the main window --> Create all the raid tabs --> Populate the raid tabs with all the elements as they are created by the previous function. By default, open the Kara tab and do a full (kara) item database search (the search is done before tabs are created). By default the wishlist is empty.

I would like the wishlist to default to either empty, or to load the last known one. After a raid tab is created and it's elements are created (this is where im trying to load the wishlist as well), the default kara tab gets opened, which is where I get a nil error indicating to me that the loading of the wishlist overwrote something.

This is the error im getting. Googling around this apparently indicates that whatever SetPoint is being called for doesn't exist.

 Ketho = <table> {

}

which goes back to this function and the bolded line

local function UpdateWishlistFrame(raid)
	local index = 1
	local first_elem = true
	for key, itemButton in next, namespace.wishlists[raid] do
		if first_elem then
			itemButton:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", _G[raid .. "WishScrollChild"], "TOPLEFT", 4, 0)
			first_elem = false
		else
			itemButton:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", namespace.wishlists[raid][index - 1], "TOPLEFT", 0, -11)
		end
		itemButton:Show()
		index = index + 1
	end
	_G[raid .. "WishScrollChild"]:SetSize(195, index * 11)
	
end

Right now im trying to load the wishlist before any tabs are even created. My table for wishlists is like this

namespace.wishlists = {["Karazhan"] = {},["Gruul"] = {}, ["Magth"] = {},}

the saved variables (per character obviously) version is almost the same

savedWishlists = {["Karazhan"] = {},["Gruul"] = {}, ["Magth"] = {},}

and when I load them I do it like this

]namespace.wishlists = savedWishlists

I've also registered an event in my init.lua for saving the wishlists

function namespace:CommitMemory(event, name)
	if (name ~= "WishlistLC") then return end
	_G[savedWishlists] = namespace.wishlists
end

local save = CreateFrame("Frame")
save:RegisterEvent("PLAYER_LOGOUT")
save:SetScript("OnEvent", namespace.CommitMemory)

Any hints would be greatly appreciated

EDIT: Sorry for the kinda messu config file. Havent cleaned it up.
