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.

not sure what happened but... my rep bar and xp bar no longer display properly. Super tiny and thin no matter what I do. Also cannot hide the boxes/blocks/button spots anymore.
Need to add Incarnation:Tree of Life to the Shapeshift bar.
Fish casting is just a matter of replacing your spell. The old spell is different from the new one in your professions book. The old one needed a fishing pole, the new one doesn't. The old one no longer shows a timer, the new one does. Replace it on your bar and it will show a timer.
I have lost my casting bar when fishing...this never happened before the patch and update. Is anyone else having problems with casting bar??
For more than two year, there is still the same bug that Posses-bar setting is not working. Example while fighting against The Prophet Tharon'ja, on 2nd phase action bar 1 won't change into anything so player with bartender 4 can only wait while other player attacks the boss
Other, this is the best action bar mod I know and still the only one I have been using since I started to search action bar mods, several years ago.
I am having difficulties with OmniCC showing up on my bartender bars. I have also post this on the OmniCC Addon page as well.
Is anyone else having this issue as well. None of the cooldown shading/timers show up.
I have experienced a bug with shadow dance where shadow dance doesn't swap the bar at all.
So what happens is that I use shadow dance and I'm stuck with my non-stealth abilities for the full duration.
I have the vehicle bar turned off and it set to posess bar 1 with the vehicle options which works ok but the blizzard art bar still appears and I cannot figure out how to get rid of it. So I end up with 2 vehicle bars and the blizzard one overwhelms everything.
same here :( really annoying while doing the darkmoon quests
I have a similar problem, also seen with Darmoon Faire quests. I have the default Blizzard bar for vehicles turned on, which works, but if the bar only has one button, it doesn't work properly. When I hit the "1" button, it's trying to use the "1" button on my bartender bar, not the vehicle bar. Interestingly, if there's more than one button (the tonk controller game at DMF for example) it works.
I don't think there is a lot bartender can do about stealth/vanish and shadowdance settings, because blizz fundementally changed shadowdance too the same stance as stealth.... unless they hot fixed it .
Rogue's Stance Configuration needs to change ASAP.
It should be Stealth/Vanish & Shadowstep. NOT Shadowstep/Vanish & Stealth.
I don't know if it is just me or what. But everytime i log into the game or /reload ui my bar #7 isn't there. It only comes back if I open up the bartneder settings unlock the bars then lock them again. Been doing it since 4.3.4. Not sure if I am missing a setting or if it is just a small bug that may or may not be fixed.
It does not nescarrily need to be fixed right away but it is a little annoying and time consuming having to unlock and lock the bars each time i log into any character or /reload my ui.
This addon is still the best action bar addon imho :)
Same with mine too. Still hadn't seen any suggestions for a temp fix. and it's only bar 7!
Right its only and always bar 7 on all my toons lol. But that bar is usually the bar that i put like my mounts and hearthstone on :( I guess for now i could place another bar there.
EDIT - This doesnt work either. I tried using bar 9 and it does the exact same thing.
As i said before, there are some problems with the pagination. For example, if you use Vanish, it should go inmediatly to the stealth bar, or the bar you configured for it, but it doesnt! :(. Before MoP, it worked like that. This is, in fact, a big problem, because you have to wait until it changes from Vanish state, to stealth state, in order to use your stealth bar spells. It shouldnt be like that if you configured a bar for Vanish. It should go to that bar inmediatly when u get into vanish state. :( Please Fix it, because it was working before. BTW I <3 Bartender. :P
Can anyone tell me if the stancebar being moved to a random spot is gonna be fixed, it's driving me freaking crazy to have to reset it everytime I log in on a toon...
After recently downloading the patch and updating Bartender4, I'm noticing that I'm lagging a bit. I know it's Bartender4 because I can disable it and my interface will run fluidly. I am running the latest version, being 4.5.3.
As of right now:
Home: 56ms
World: 58ms
Framerate: 3 - 5FPS
Of course, Bartender is taking up 2.35MB of a total of 5.56MB.
Is there anything that can be done to alleviate this problem? Any input would be appreciated.
I <3 Bartender.
Edit from my last post.
With some experimentation, I found that it always pages to the Stealth bar, no matter what I tell it to. I set the Sdance bar to something off the wall, like my regular out-of-stealth bar, and it STILL goes to the stealth bar when Dance is used. Something is obviously screwed up.
Would love to be able to use my Sub spec.
The Shadow Dance paging is NOT fixed. It should be paging to Page 8 for Shadow Dance, and Page 7 for stealth, as is set in the options. However when Sdance is actually used, it still goes to 7. My Stealth bar.
There are things I need on my Sdance bar that I do not want on my Stealth bar, and vice versa.
Please look into this.
