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 16, 2016Hey, I think I may have found a bug?
There seams to be a issue with some moves canceling glow effects early. This appears to not be working correctly in BT but will work with the default wow UI.
I am using WeakAuras to make a button glow in BT when I have over 80 fury on a demon hunter. However some moves like Throw Glaive will cause the glow to end on cast. Chaos Nova will do this also.

Posted Aug 11, 2016Having an issue with the Vehicle Button (dismount) not showing up no matter what the settings are for it. Having issues with Key Binds not sticking between Specs. And a couple of Wishes of Whimsy- If only I could bind the buttons on my Logitech Gaming Mouse... Yes, I know my G5 can do this, but I'd love to have the ability to mod them in a less "permanent" way.
I also use MoveAnything for 2 items: Draenor Ability and to move the stupid cast bar. Would love to free up some memory hog...
I've used BT4 since BC. Thanks for always being here. I know it takes some time to work out all the kinks.

Posted Aug 10, 2016I've tried all three versions of Bartender that have been released since the Legion prepatch and all of them are preventing MoveAnything from working ONLY if I'm playing a demon hunter.

Posted Aug 6, 2016Having an annoying issue with the casting bar, when I'm fishing, mining, summoning mount there's a casting bar that overlaps my spells and can't move. I've asked around and people tells me to download another addon, am I not seeing the option to move it or there's no chance to move it with BT4?

Posted Aug 6, 2016I seem to have a problem with the XP bar. It works, for a while, but then stops. Begins working again after /reload. Noticed it when I was 5 bars away from level 85 and dinged to 85 with still 5 bars away.

Posted Aug 3, 2016Bartender4 currently has a problem with corruptions involving keybinding. I went to the project site and saw a ticket that explained that it was a blizzard side problem with the API GetKeyBind () function (or a function named something like that), so I decided to just grit my teeth and wait it out. Bartender was my crutch, been using it for almost as long as playing WOW, and I started back in Vanilla days. Then I had a guild-mate suggest I try Domino as a temporary patch. I was sure it would not work because its a Blizz side problem, not a BT4 problem. Lo and behold, it works great with no corruptions. So I am curious for someone to explain to me how Domino can seem to handle the keybinds without corruption but BT4 cannot. Makes me wonder if its not a Blizz side problem. If BT4 gets fixed, I'll come back to it, as I completely familiar with all its aspects and uses, but until then Domino seems to get the job done.

Posted Aug 14, 2016So was I. I took transitbus's advice in the comments on that ticket and changed all instances of
category="Bartender4 "
in Bindings.xml to
category="BINDING_HEADER_Bartender4"
and it fixed it.

Posted Aug 3, 2016I'm not sure if this is an issue caused by bartender, but I logged onto my warrior today to find all the skills on my bars 7-9 where missing, and had to re-add them manually.
I made a bug report thread on the wow forums here: http://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20747955385 but a number of posters suggested I let you know too in case this was caused by bartender.

Posted Aug 2, 2016I run bartender in concert with LUI v3. Not sure but ever since I learned the treant and stag form tomes I have issues with my stance bar. I have to manually key bind the correct shifts every time I log in.
I run as Balance. I have my forms bound to F1 thru F5. F1 is travel, F2 should be moonkin, F3 is cat, F4 is bear, and F5 is for stag form. I do not bind treant form.
I am not sure where the issue lies, but as balance I have 6 possible stances or shifts. I key bind them and am fine, but if I log out for an hour and come back in I usually have to reset my shifting key binds.
I have been keeping things up to date in the hopes it resolves, but so far it keeps popping back up. At this point not sure if its a game issue or what, but I thought I would bring it up.
