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 May 23, 2008Impossible the way it's implemented. The only thing possible would be unsorted meaning they would show up in the same order they do in Blizzard's frames.

Posted Jun 4, 2008I'm running v 2.1, and there is no "Toggle Anchor" anywhere in the right click menu tree. I can uncheck "Show Anchor", but that also wipes out the name box at the top.

Posted May 17, 2008I setup two bars (player and target), and somehow got the target bar to disappear unless I targeted something with a buff/debuff on it. When it appeared, the anchor (label) was intact. I tried to do the same with my warlock with an additional bar for my minion. It didn't work, and I lost the other auto-hide setup in the process.
Now I'm stuck with "blessings of demonstration" on my additional bars. Is there a way to intentionally make the bars auto-hide without removing the anchors, or did I just get lucky for a short time?

Posted May 16, 2008I love this addon and have used it for over a year now, but I have one little problem now that I have rolled a Shamman alt.
I now for the first time have the the third buff tracker up for rockbiter, Windfurry and such and dont like how it starts a whole new bar tree. Is there any way I can like sticky it to the main buff bar so it just displays under the rest of my buffs?

Posted May 14, 2008I did a search for LibAbacus-3.0 and didn't actually see the add-on. And that Buffalo site, there's like 50 different zip files. I rather look at the original blizzard icons than figure out and d/l all those files, no offense. I hope this gets fixed soon, as I hear it's a problem with Ace2 since it's dependant on it.

Posted May 14, 2008Installing LibAbacus-3.0 will most likely fix things, too. Besides that, I hope r73803 will be working again.

Posted May 14, 2008Temp fix:
Download and install Buffalo ( http://files.wowace.com/Buffalo/ ). Load both Buffalo and EBB addons Just disable buffalo ( /buffalo standby)
The nil value in this error must be fixed by the presence of this other buff addon.
Enjoy untill a proper fix is released.

Posted May 13, 2008As much as I love this add-on, I've ran into a bit of a problem. After the servers came back up, and I downlouded the new 15MB patch, I logged in to find that the buff bars arn't working. I downloaded the newest version and nothing. I had to allow Blizzards Original ugly buff's so I can tell whenever I have a curse worth decursing myself for(since I am a mage). Do you know of anyone else who has ran into this problem? And if so, how is it fixed? Thanx.

Posted May 14, 2008There's a problem with LibAbacus, all you have to do is change all instances of COPPER, SILVER and GOLD to COPPER_AMOUNT, SILVER_AMOUNT and GOLD_AMOUNT in Addons\ElkBuffBars\libs\Abacus-2.0\Abacus-2.0.lua to get it working again.
Note: If you use cartographer, you're going to get the same errors there.
