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 Nov 3, 2022After I've been logged on for a while, I'm not able to right-click anything in my inventory, such as a hearthstone or invis pot without the error: "Bartender4 has been blocked from an action only available to the Blizzard UI."
Reloading is a temporary fix, but if I'm in a dungeon no one wants to wait around for the tank to reload for 30 seconds before an invis.
I'm running bug grabber / bugsack, but not getting any specific lua errors that I can provide here. I do not run any inventory-management addons.
Any suggestions?

Posted Nov 1, 2022Spell flyouts are working fine with the default UI, only when I enable Bartender do they break.

They are broken with all action bar addons, because the way Blizzard changed them is impossible for addons to use them. Hopefully they'll fix it.

Wow, came here for this same reason as well. This is extremely frustrating. Do you recommend submitting a bug ticket to Blizzard?

Posted Nov 1, 2022When I'm using Bartender I cannot get the fly-out buttons to work, poisons/portals, but disabled they work with Blizzard UI. I get one lua error:

Post this in the issues portion of BT here: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/bartender4/issues/1980
Looks like a Blizz UI issue. They chimed in with a response :)

Posted Nov 1, 2022First of all, I love your mod ! I have a question though : how feasible would it be to split the XP and reputation bar as individual elements ? Currently they are stacked together as the "status bar" IIRC. For instance, I would love to place the XP bar at the screen bottom and track reputation near my side bars. Is this anywhere possible regarding how Blizzard refactored the UI ?

Posted Oct 31, 2022Any chance of an option to scale the talking head? I used to use dominos and that used to have a talking head selection and i had it scaled down to 75%.

You can also try BeQuiet addon, it will completely get rid of talking head if you prefer that! Can be very handy specially in dungeons/raids.

Bartender does not currently touch the talking head, and with the new Edit Mode it might also be troublesome, but I'll keep it in mind if Edit Mode allows us more access at some point without breaking all the things.

Posted Oct 31, 2022Is there an option to not show honor bar as exp bar in BGs or at least limit the exp bar to only track one thing at a time so it doesn't show 2 bars in bgs

I think you can disable tracking of honor in the pvp window? Not sure. What is being tracked on the bar is controlled by Blizzard right now.

Posted Oct 31, 2022I like how you can have the classic look with the updated textures. Any chance these new textures could be added to classic?

The textures are part of the game, and not actually part of Bartender. So most likely not, sorry.

Posted Oct 30, 2022Just received the latest update today 10/30. Add-on still gives error. I disabled all other add-ons and still there. I know blizzard is still working on the UI so maybe that's the issue.

Posted Oct 30, 2022Why is there such a huge difference between bartender 4 pre dragonflight and the current alpha model on retail? And what I mean by this is that the same settings that I use in classic I use in retail and there is a LARGE gap between buttons.

Blizzard changed the default sizes of all bars going into DF, what the Bartender Author did in compensation for that is he reduced our scale/padding on retail bartender accordingly to match what blizzard did. Your bar scaling and padding should be no different visually speaking, but in the settings, the bartender author adjusted our scaling and padding so we wouldn’t have to do it ourselves. Hope this makes sense. The only true problem that arises from this is that your key bindings or hotkeys on your bars are now probably really small, there is a fix coming for that soon. Sorry for poor format, on my phone atm

The huge gaps are caused by Masque. You can reduce them by going into the Masque settings, general settings, and turn on Classic Scaling. Might also ask with the Masque people.
