Tip

Consider disabling "Error Messages" under Character Configuration > Log Window Settings > Log Filters > Chat Tab Name > Announcements. Otherwise some of these macros will spawn errors in the chat under certain circumstances. To avoid this while leaving "Error Messages" enabled you can prepend /merror off to all of the macros below instead.

Was able to get MopiMopi perfectly setup like yours and also fix the few macros I was having usings with.
There are a few icons I'm still not sure what they are but the general hide/show/etc all work perfectly now.

Under Character Config -> Custom I think you have the "Enable WXHB with simueltaneous" as well as "Enable directional and actions buttons." It also took me trial and error to figure out that you have the "Display Left: Cross Hotbar 5 - Right" and "Display Right: Cycle Down - Left" so you might want to make note of that.

The only other errors I'm getting are with a few of the macros, but even with the errors they still seem to work, so I'm not really sure how to fix them haha.

Cross Hotbars  ON/OFF gives "pvpchotbar is not a valid HUD element."
DoW / DoM or DoH / DoL gives "The command /pvpchotbar change 1/3 is unavailable at this time."
PREV/NEXT gives "The command /pvpchotbar change prev/next is unavailable at this time."
Ability Bars Toggle gives "The command /bw inlay mopimopimod hidden off does not exist."

I tried going to Char Config -> Custom and enable the PvP Settings and messing around at Wolves Den but still couldn't get the "pvpchotbar" errors to stop so I must just be missing a box somewhere else.

There will always be macro errors depending on where you are. To make matters worse, several HUD macro commands have been in a broken state for 5+ years now in PvP zones. I even have this accepted bug report that never went anywhere. The only real workaround is to disable "Error Messages" in your chat log filter settings under the Announcements tab or to add /merror off to the top of any macros that you don't want chat errors to appear for. The /hud pvpchotbar on and /hud pvpchotbar off commands can probably be removed too since they don't work at all. Luckily, the other PvP macro commands function while on a job that has PvP skills.

The /bw commands are for the Browsingway Dalamud plugin. If you use overlays (MopiMopi in this case) through it in conjunction with OverlayPlugin WSServer you can control it with macros. Good point about the WXHB custom settings being required too.

Edit: forgot to mention that these icons are mostly just commonly used things available under Actions & Traits > General (Aetherial Reduction / Advanced Materia Melding / Materia Extraction / Desynthesis). The one with a chocobo in it is just "Mount Roulette" using the now defunct "Flying Mount Roulette" icon (which doesn't exist anymore since all mounts can fly now). The "Auto-attack" Icon is just a placeholder since I'll be moving the Squadron Rationing Manual to that slot from the set 1 cross hotbar once Beastmaster is released in the expansion. The example image already has ROG and THM gearsets as placeholders for Viper and Pictomancer too.

The example image uses the base gearset icons from this mod (not macroicons): https://www.xivmodarchive.com/modid/111523
