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 12, 2022The UI Bag Bar has it own texture now and I'd like to revert it back to default WoW UI look, but unable to find it in the settings for "Bag Bar" options in BT4. Is it possible to add that option to the addon? Please ;)

Bartender4 sticks to the default UI visuals. You can use something like Masque to obtain other visuals - which includes a "classic" design for the Bag Bar.

It sounds like your Bartender4 bar that corresponds to this bar is disabled. You can have it enabled and set visibility to "Hide Always", but it needs to be enabled for keybindings to work.

Posted Nov 12, 2022Thanks Nevcairel for the MVP of WOW addons.
For anyone getting the LUA errors in combat/raids etc. I suggest you install BugGrabber until there is a final fix. The addon will just hide the huge LUA error panel and allow you to play on.

Posted Nov 12, 2022The newest update seems to have made Bar 3 disappear, and I can't find it anywhere. Edit: Figured it out. For some reason, the update disabled the bar in the addon.

Posted Nov 11, 2022Hey and thanks for this great addon! The new Blizz UI was so bugged and I wanted my good old classic UI back.
Question: When using the classic interface preset, is there a way to get the up and down arrow buttons back that are missing in the bottom center? I know I can have keybinds to change between my main action bar and the other ones but I'm so used to pressing the buttons and now they're gone!
Thanks again. :)

Posted Nov 11, 2022For some mysterious reason Bartender4-4.13.6 moved my tooltip from the bottom-right to the top-left corner of my screen ... why?
If I disable bartender it's where it's supposed to be. Enabling bartender moves it up again.
Bartender4-4.13.5 works fine. Tooltip is where it should be.

Posted Nov 10, 2022Was the option to hide Hotkey text moved somewhere? I cannot find it under the "Button Look" options.It appears that the option to hide the hotkey text on the buttons has been removed. I have made a small change in the source code to attach this functionality to the "Hide Macro Text" under the "Button Look" section of the action bar settings.
In ActionBar.lua, change the following line:
to:
This will hide hotkey text along with macro text if you have this option selected.

I would assume you have to use what are now bars 1-8 in Bartender, probably even 1-5, as those correspond to the default Blizzard bars, with 6-8 being the 3 new ones added in DF.
The Class Bars and the Bonus Bar are not usually available for keybindings in the default UI.

Posted Nov 8, 2022First, I just want to say you are awesome and this is a great addon for WoW. I used it way back when and loved it and it was a staple when I came back to WoW in SL after a 10 year break.
Second, thank you so much for adding the option to edit the text for hotkeys, stacks and macros. It has made seeing those items so much easier for my old eyes.
Third, question, is there a place I can edit one of the LUA files so that all the bars have the same exact options for the hotkey, stack and macro text/font/size/position?
Again, thanks for your awesome work.

Not really, if you were to edit the addon lua files it would just get overriden on updates, which wouldn't gain you much.

Hopefully Blizzard fixes it soon. If not, I'll have to think about an alternative for DF .. which might be quite a bit of effort.
