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.

With the new update today, the bars are gone. the only bars that show are my DK'
s stance bar and pet bar everything else is not showing. when you go into the settings to see if the bars are checked to be visible, theres no options listed, just a blank page under the tabs.
In reply to asianhalfling:
Same here, on my warlock its only showing the pet bar, bags, exp and micromenu
In reply to asianhalfling:
Same here, the new update broke the addon's main bars
While doing a quest in DK start zone - to steal a horse - as soon I mounted horse, a GIGANTIC UGGLY vehicle bar appeared on bottom fo screen covering all my UI stuff.
So seem sBartender > Bars > VehicleBar options not working for classic wotlk ? i would like to see only the vehicle options in bartender bar and not to see the blizzard gigantic frames.
Am I right ? Am I wrong ? Do we need Bartender4 update for classic WOTLK or am I'm being noob and missing to configure some option correctly ?
Thanks
for some reason Blizzard bags and micromenu is not disappearing. and of cause not showing Bartender micromenu, however it is how one bag from bartender and 4 bag on Blizzard menu.
How do I make it switch bars for dual spec in Wrath? I've looked through all the settings. Back in the day there was a separate addon that facilitated this with Bartender.

anyone getting this error? or does this look like something possibly GatherMate is causing?
In reply to TransformedBG:
I am also experiencing this.
In reply to wxcopy:
CURSOR_UPDATE has to be changed to CURSOR_CHANGED but I can't seem to find "AceEvent-3.0-4.lua" anywhere. Is it something that's created and constantly updated somewhere?
I can only find "AceEvent-3.0.lua" (without the '-4').
Any way to get Metamorphosis to count as a Stance for Demo warlocks?
Or a way to fit that in to the addon?
I'm sure I'll have this issue with my shadow priest, too.
Could you add a setting for the mouse-over smart target option to only apply to friendlies, hostiles, or both (as currently). Ie. if I want heals to work as mouseover, but not dps skills. (Tbc classic)
Hey, could there be some import / Export feature be addet ?
Version 4-4.11.2 7/26/2022 deletes the Shaman Totem bar for the PTR realm build of Wrath of the Lich King.
Without the Shaman totem bar you must put down four totems seperately and cannot use the Blizzard spells call of the elements, call of the ancestors and call of the Spirits. The workaround is not to use Bartender.
Is there a way to disable the hold Shift to move locked bars?
In reply to R1ZZ023:
well since i cant type an actual post and LITERALLY EVEYTHING I TYPE gets an error we will go here! youve now lost someone who has used your addon since you released it. ive been back to wow for 2 weeks and your UI has full reset 4x in that time span and im getting SICK AND TIRED of having to reset my stuff. and the fact that you have blocked your users from commenting or posting about how massively you guys are erroring is just the cherry on top. good day and congratz again, ive sworn by you for over a decade but you ruined that in 2 weeks.
Addon is causing micro stutters on retail and TBC. Did testing with only bartender enabled and it was causing stutters, disabling it fixed it.
This addon is still creating micro stutters and not worth using.
In reply to NightOfMistra:
This addon does not create micro stutters for me and I love using it so it's very well worth it.
In reply to NightOfMistra:
I've been noticing the micro-stutters for a while now and didn't know what it was. I started turning off addons one at a time today, and damn if it isn't Bartender.
I'm sure some people aren't having this issue, and that's great for them!
But does anyone know how to fix it for those of us who are having the issue? Or a work-able alternative?
UPDATE: i turned off every addon i have except bartender4 and BAM!! micro-stutters! it's smooth as butter if i have all addons turned off, or if i have everything loaded except bartender4. please help!
In reply to Grizz2202:
I am not able to post this as a main comment so I am posting it here to see if Bartender4 is blocking my comment.
Also seeing micro stutters / massive lag spikes while playing as many others have mentioned. For me specifically it's happening while going up/down stairs.
Reproduction steps:
1. Have a 100% mount speed
2. Go to Telredor, Zangarmarsh (Outlands)
3. Head to the city and run up and down the steps multiple times
This causes my computer to stutter for multiple seconds and eventually fully recovers in frames.
I've also checked my GPU, CPU, and internet, which none of them are spiking during the stutters.
Once I turn off bartender4 addon the micro stutters stopped happening. I had every other addon shutoff as well, but once bartender was on the game was stuttering.
Please let me know if this gets fixed, I really like this addon and would love to continue using it!!!!
