Elkano's BuffBars
EBB provides groups of statusbar style indicators to show (de)buffs currently affecting your char or some other units (currently focus, pet and target). For the player, it can also show indicators for temporary enchants place on it's weapons.
Due to changes Blizzard made with WoW 4.x it's no longer possible to cancel buffs without the use of secure frames. Currently EBB limits canceling of buffs to out-of-fight since using SecureAuraHeader would have required a major code restructuring. This will be coming in a later version.
Version 2.x is a total recode based on the Ace2 framework which became necessary in order to support some of the longtime wanted and suggested features. It's now possible to show different groups of bars which can be configured in many ways. Each group can be assigned an individual look and filter settings. EBB can be configured via a dropdown menu which is accessible via chat (/ebb config), FuBar plugin or (for the group settings) by right clicking the groups anchor. After setting up a group, its anchor can be hidden by alt-left clicking a bar or the anchor itself in order to lock the group in place.
In order to get additional bar textures and fonts for EBB simply install SharedMedia which is available for download under http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/sharedmedia.aspx

Posted Apr 1, 2008The 2.4 version wasn't uploaded by myself. But don't be fooled by the 'out of date' message... this only means that the TOC file lists an older TOC version so you have to check 'load out of date addons' in your addon list. It does not mean the addon isn't working with 2.4 (in fact it works fine)

Posted Apr 3, 2008Then please update TOC file to support 2.4.x out-of-box if you declare its support.

Posted Mar 25, 2008Hi, I am having a problem with your addon, since i configured the UI for my druid and for my hunter, both low lvl xD
After making an amasing UI for both (took half day ><) i logged my main just to find that your addon was not working, i had default buff icons, even tho i didnt change anything on my mains settings, i worked around it for some days by just renaming my alts folders in the WTF folder, but, since yesterday, it stop working and my main is now having just icons and no elkano buffs for anyone.
Any ideas? i end up trying diferent addons on and off, and i am having like the biggest UI lag ever, and i dont know what i addon caused that =( because i have like 300 addons on my addon folder, and i just enable/desable what i need for each of my charaters.
Hope you can help me, is there any "by profile" option in elkano? because as for configuration, it was one of the easiest, i think it was just, enable, position and forget, great addon.

Posted Mar 17, 2008Feature request:
Most cast bar/timer/cooldown addons have a 'glowing' 'light' at the end of every bar that is about 2-4 pixels wide. If you're not sure what I'm talking about see nature enemy castbar, or quartz castbar, or DoTimers. It would be a great feature for your addon. If it's an easy change but you don't want to add it to your addon maybe you could post here and tell me how to do it?

Posted Mar 10, 2008Hi,
Since the last time I played, ElkBuffBars set the font and textures to default again. Could the use of shared media 3.0 be the cause of that?
I use Clearfont 2.0 and these aren´t available anymore by EBB. I installed the font&texture packs, that come with the library, but my old favourite font is still missing.
If you have an idea i would appreciate.
I think its a problem from clearfont and pitbull, because they dont use the new library yet.
Thx 4 youre work...

Posted Feb 26, 2008Hi. Is there any way to sort buffs in more convenient way? So it would be easier to find missing pala/raid buffs? The only way I see now is to make special groups and do a lot of whitelisting/blacklisting...

Posted Feb 13, 2008Can you select which buffs this addon shows? I'm looking for a addon that let's me select buffs, like battleshout and rampage, and move them somewhere on my screen away from the rest of the buffs, so I can just pay attention to them.

Posted Feb 3, 2008i have a problem with the mod not working sometimes, im thinking it may haev something to do with the levels its on, ie i have a eepanel and try put this ontop if i have eepanel on level 2+ you cant even see it which means that they both have to sit on the 1st level so i can see the buffs.... im not sure sometimes they work sometimes they dont. Perhaps adding a function to select which level the buffs sits on may work? if its not that then i have no idea why its not working sometimes and it is the others. also the tench timers give out an error when you try using poisens on weapons.. it wont pick them up at all.

Posted Feb 2, 2008If anyone is having the problem with Blizzard`s Buff frame not going away, remove the PlayerAuras module from DoTimer, if youre using it. It worked for me.
