ChocolateBar Broker Display
ChocolateBar will create a bar on top or bottom of your screen where other addons called broker plugins can display stuff like your fps.
Main Features
- Easy setup, install & go!
- Multiple bars - top or bottom as many as you want.
- Left, right and center alignment.
- Support for icon colors and coordinates like used by TomTom.
- Easy config, simply drag a plugin and drop points will show. The idea is to easily disable a plugin or toggle its text. See pics.
- Load-on-demand options, and small memory footprint.
- More Chocolate - a broker plugin to show a bar that will autohide again. Great for launchers or other plugins you don't need visible all the time:)
Options for:
- Show bars on mouse over only.
- Hide bars in combat.
- Hide bars during a pet battle.
- Set a fixed width for any plugin.
- Change textures, font, colors and a lot more...
Where to get plugins?
Search for broker on CurseForge
Updated list by tekkub on Github (last update April 2021)
Usage
Right click the bar or type "/chocolatebar" to open the options menu.

You should check the edits, and make sure you did them properly, or you could download the zip file provided by agentschmitt in the comment above. It was him who provided the edit, so his zip file should work.

Posted Oct 15, 2020I just re-installed a fresh copy of WoW and downloaded Chocolate Bar. I see the name in the Interface but /chocolatebar doesn't work when I type it into chat. I opened the chocolatebar.lua file and all I see is 19 lines of text. I have re-installed multiple time with no luck.
ChocolateBarDB = { ["addonVersion"] = "v3.3.5", ["profileKeys"] = { ["Hurtlocker - Korgath"] = "Default", }, ["profiles"] = { ["Default"] = { ["fixedStrata"] = true, ["objSettings"] = { ["BugSack"] = { ["barName"] = "ChocolateBar1", }, }, }, }, } CB_PlayedTime = nil-

That is the settings file under the WTF folder.
You need to make the changes in the Interface\AddOns\ChocolateBar folder.

Mouseovers on LDB items don't seem to work. Does something else need to be changed also?
Edit: Correction, you can't drag to rearrange items inside the bar. Once you try to drag them, THEN mouseovers break until you /reloadui.

No, doesn't work at all. Can it be hardware dependent? Motherboard, cpu, graphic card (I have no clue). Or Windows version or....

this fix did not fix chocolatebar.
I did do the fix for Bazooka and that fix worked but not this one.

This is the best working version of it for now, mouseover tooltips work, dragging/moving icons work. There might be issues I haven't discovered during gameplay yet.
All it is is doing the fix mentioned in my previous post, but to all `CreateFrame` calls in the script.

Ty postin this. Does it push the rest of the interface down for you?
The "buffs" like the mounted state, what weekly bonus is ongoing etc won't get pushed down to me so they actually overlap the bar. :/

Haven't checked, I have bar at bottom and my UI is designed around that.
Noticed some LDB brokers don't work, in the cases I checked it's the broker that's broken not ChocolateBar however.
Some displays can't be moved/crashes the bar when attempted to move.
I think alot of addons need updates for SL :)
