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.

Macro/Hotkey text still doesn't show on bars other than 1...
After the last wow patch 7.1, randomly after flying on a flight master path or loading a dungeon screen, buttons gray out, making it very hard to see them and impossible to know if the corresponding button spell is available, deleting wow cache file fix it for a period of time, the problem will reappear after a while.
I also experience the same problem with others Actionbars replacement Addons like Dominos.
Wondering is others Bartender4 users are experiencing the same problem?
Mind Control isn't working properly for me. Not sure what I can do to fix it. When I mind control I'm not able to leave mind control. I try clicking it on the bar. I try the hotkey, nothing works to get me out of Mind Controlling.
Second vouch on the greyed out skills for disc priest. Not sure if its after mind control but it happens all the time in arena. Cant track CD's and hopefully pressing the correct spell to get it off.
as a priest,after i used mind control on player in arena, my sskills are greyed out and cant even use penance. =/
can you add honor exp bar please?
Can you please add back the options for the Stance Bar button? It's been re-enabled for Shadow (Shadowform) and I can only move it from the Lock/Unlock all the bars button and if I go to the button options the only option is to Enable or Disable, I'd like to be able to resize it again. Thanks in advance :)
I see a bunch of users reporting issue with "Extra Action Button" not being able to be moved or not working as intended. The actual root cause of this is that Blizz introduced a new button (rather reused and renamed a button from Draenor) on top of that. You now have ExtraActionButton and ZoneAbilityFrame that sit right on top of each other. One is a button for questing (suramar disguise) and the other for class hall follow ability.
I have submitted code to the mod author to have this updated, but in the meantime- any brave souls who know what they are doing can access my proposed changes at https://www.wowace.com/addons/bartender4/tickets/1277-zone-ability-frame-enhancement/
Support is limited and the code change only supports English language, but if not having control of them buttons drives you crazy, this might work for you. :)
Firstly the greyed out button issue is a blizz issue not this addon... Secondly I cannot get my extra action bar to be movable.. help plz.
---EDIT---
okay so i left the world quest area and thought i'd try unlocking buttons to see if i had some how magically fixed it. I didn't update or anything but i guess being OUT of the questing area where the button is required assured me access to moving that item. So i moved it.
So if you get stuck with the Extra Action Bar button... leave the area (where nothing would use the button) and then move it.
Having said that i hope this is only a temporary problem, because I like to have full control, in case something like this happens again. ;)
The Extra Action Bar button is actually two buttons, one for zone items and one from your class hall. They can overlap and cause issues.
I have submitted code to the author that would provide the ability to move both buttons. I hope they will add it to the mod.
I am not sure who has access to download it, but here is the link to the ticket with zip file. Note- this is a mod to an addon so support is limited.

Buttons grayed for unknown reason.
Hunters buttons are bugged. its a bliz problem.
Thank you for commenting, I wasn't sure if it was an addon issue or a Blizzard UI issue on my hunter.
I deleted the WTF, Interface and Cache folders. Reinstalled the addon and set everything up and the buttons gray out and stay grayed out as soon as I catch a flight. It is annoying enough that I am thinking of dumping the addon till it gets fixed. I cannot tell when abilities are off CD so I have to guess.
I also have this problem. Buttons are grayed out most of the time. Sometimes they show up then they disappear again. /reload ui doesn't help. Played a dungeon without buttons showing up was quite a challenge ;...
But great addon cannot play without it!!
new Info: it seems that it hasn't anything to do with the addon. It is a general problem with the ui but it only affects hunters ... since patch 7.1 !? strange
new Info: it has something to do with pets going to stealth - if you disable stealth and relogin the buttons work again - crazy ;)
Hunter buttons are bugged, its a blizz problem.
Is there any way to move the extra action button..its dead center of my screen and aggravating me..lol
