FAQ
Q: I cannot move/drag my skills on my bars?
A: Hold Shift to move skills safely. You can also unlock your bars in the Bartender4 options, but using Shift is safer and recommended.
Q: How do i access the Configuration?
A: You can open the configuration with the Slash Commands (/bt or /bartender) or through the Bartender4 LDB plugin.
Q: Where are my keybindings? And how do i bind new keys?
A: Bartender4 buttons should automatically inherit keybindings from the Blizzard bars. For new keybindings, you can use KeyBound to re-bind your keys. You can access KeyBound by its slash command (/kb) or through the button in the BT4 config. Hover a button, press key → voila!
Q: Can I skin the buttons beyond the built-in options?
A: Bartender4 allows skinning through Masque! After installing both Bartender4 and Masque, you can customize the BT4 appearance in the Masque options.
Q: How do i disable the snapping of the bars?
A: Currently, you can temporarily override the snapping by holding down the Shift Key while moving your bars, or uncheck the option in the popup when your bars are unlocked.

Posted Aug 30, 2016Hi, I stumbled apon a weird bug. After setting up my bars as a feral druid some of them share slots with others:
-cat form bar with bar 7
-travel/normal form with moonkin form
when I try to remove the skills from action bar 7 they get removed from the cat form bar etc.
is there a way to fix it?

Posted Aug 31, 2016Druids need bars for each form, so the way it works is: bar 1 is your basic person/moonkin/travel form bar, and all spells used in those forms should be put onto bar 1. If there are too many, some ppl macro to combine them, for instance a standard attack spell could be macroed to change to an aoe attack if shift is pressed.
Bar 7 is cat form spells
Bar 8 is prowl stuff
Bar 9 is bear form spells.
Each of these swaps into bar 1's position when you change form, and each should hold only spells related to its form.
The upshot: you have to use bars 2,3,4,5,6 and 10 for general use. This isn't a bug in Bartender4, but a consequence of the game's design.

Posted Aug 31, 2016you can change this behavior - open the settings '/bt' and go to bar 8 'state configuration' tab, 'enable' and leave everything else unchecked and set to 'Don't Page'
Prowl will now keep the same bar as Cat Form

Posted Aug 30, 2016There is a bug with Legion questing. The extra button that sometimes appears for quests (in the default UI, it's in the middle-center of the screen) does not show up at all. This is the same button that for instance you used to trigger Garrison abilities, but those showed up just fine for me whereas I have to disable Bartender to see the button for Legion questing.
Please fix!

Posted Aug 29, 2016How do you hide the unused action bar slots?
I have hide bars checked in interface settings, and I do not have grid checked on any BT bar but they are still showing up.
:( I can't figure this out

Posted Aug 29, 2016Hey guys, got a bit of an issue im having problems resolving, probs due to my limited know how of how addons work in this nature but .....
I'm trying ti use Syncui but it has limited action bars, so i wanna use bartender to add more, syncui seems to use the blizzard bars but moves them to suit its artwork.
enabling bartender disables these bars so i cannot put any kills there, so ....
i want to use bartender to put bars over the artwork and then scale them to fit, BUT the bars fall behind some of the artwork so they are not visible ..... is there any way to make bartender sit on the top layer so its placed in front of all the artwork so its visible ?
any help would be greatly appreciated.

Posted Aug 29, 2016Is there anyway to make the addon use Blizzard's keybinds? This is the only reason I use Dominos over Bartender4. Using the Blizzard keybindings means that when I move to another computer, like at work, I do not lose all my keybindings.

Posted Aug 22, 2016In patch 7.03, my bars revert back to default every time I reload the ui or log in. I've tried deleting bartender, deleting all profiles, & every option I can see in the interface. I've never previously had this problem. Can anyone help?
