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.

In reply to MystbornGames:
I'm not on my pc to check right now, but in the bar settings there's the State Configuration tab (I think that´s what it is called). In there you can set to what bar your original bars will change when stealthing (or in druid forms etc).
You can do that for each bar and they can change to other normal bars as well (it doesn't need to be one of the class bars).
In reply to MystbornGames:
I also have this question/issue. Some of the abilities show up on Class Bar 1 and some showed up on Bar 1. I don't think Blizzard knows what they are doing.
I also cannot use roll-outs, such as mage portals, hunter call-pet, or rogue apply-poissons when set to a button. Clicking on the button does nothing -- very irritating (and I blame Blizz!). Otherwise, great and needed addon
In reply to foofie555:
This should now be fixed by having an entirely custom flyout independent of the Blizzard function.
How to disable the blizzard vehicle bar?, it doesn't let me from the bartender. Thank you.
This is a great add on. I wasn't able to play at all thanks to the new ui killing my mind and stressing me out. but b4 has a classic preset that is similar. the only downside is for some bizare reason they made it microscopic and tiny, unfortunately it looks like it will take a lot of tweaking to make it decently big enough to be realistic. since everything has to be moved individually. 6/10. just happy to have somewhat of a normal ui again !
any work around for the hunter and mage rollouts ?

Love the addon. Can you help me?
I cannot lock my runes in place on my Death Knight.

Great addon. One question: is there a way to style / configure multiple bars at the same time? Or "copy" a bar configuration to another?
I'm doing some detailed UI config this time around and having to manually repeat configurations over 8 bars is nuts hehe.
Thanks!
i have an issue with bartender mouseover, usually no problem, but sometime it doesnt work (it's rare, noticed it on my shaman heal mostly)
you can see my hot going to myself rather than the tank here
(and this was with only bartender loaded and no macros, blizzard mouseover is disabled)
I am having issues with the combo|slide buttons. When I go to either my hunter [pet utility|Pet select] or rogue [poisons]. I get an LUA error and the button does not work as intended. Is any else having this issue?

It's astonishing how blizzard not only didn't changed the spell flyout orientation handling but managed to break even more things this time around
In reply to Dhisana:
Any fix on your end with the flyouts?

Strange issue with latest version of B4 during Elemental invasion patch. My favorites transport key shows as some spell completely removed from game. It is inactive and i cant use it from the bar.
BT4 doesn't play nice with empowered spells. If I disable BT4 they act like they should but with BT4 I have to click to start click to end.
