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.

How do I move the button shown in the screenshot above?
Edit: I can't get it to show here. You can view it by clicking the link.
In reply to metalmight7:
That is the "Extra Action Button" and he removed the ability to move it starting in 4.13.3 with this note:
Taking a frame out of Edit Mode and letting Bartender4 handle it instead is problematic at best, and for the Extra Action Button in particular we don't even do anything to it other then making it movable.
Favoring Edit Mode and avoiding issues with the button not working right seems like the best path forward, even though I was not able to reproduce issues in raids or dungeons myself.
You'll have to use Blizz's built in Edit Mode to move it, just check the box for "Extra Abilities" and you'll see it.
In reply to syeborge:
Okay, thanks very much for the response.
Pet panel is broken. Any hotkeys not working. After last update 18-19 January.
When you press any key assigned on the pet's panel, it visually works, but nothing is pressed, the pet does not respond to any pressing. Everything works fine without the addon.
In reply to ffreestyler:
same here. Manual clicking works, hotkeys don't. Without bartender it does work
edit
In reply to Thalos82:
Sorry for hijacking. Your comment seems to be empty and whenever I try to comment it gives an error:
Whenever I join a dungeon my skillbars change, as if it's paging the wrong bars, showing skill from other bars (I play a druid). I don't know what is causing this, because I did not have this issue before.
In reply to ffreestyler:
+1. Same issue. Only seems to be broken when using modifier keys. So any keybind with Ctrl+ or Alt+ won't work. Does work with single keybinds. Modifier keybinds do work if you carefully click. To get a Ctrl+5 to work on pet bar you must hold Ctrl, hold 5, release Ctrl, release 5.
Guessing it's an issue with the bartender-specific modifier options
In reply to ffreestyler:
Is there a planned fix for this?
When moving or disabling the bag bar, the bag bar collapse button right arrow does not get moved or disabled and remains on the screen as of version 4.14.4
totem bar broken
They seem to have updated the mod language for WotLK Classic with the most recent patch, possibly aligning some things more closely with retail. I saw someone post that they moved everything into C_Container. Hopefully won't be a ton of work, thanks for keeping Bartender working for everyone, don't know what I would do without it!
Hey,
Sry my english isn´t the best.
I have since the beginning of WotLK Classic a Problem.
I wanna use the Blizzard Vehicle UI but everytime i change to a "Vehicle" (infight) there is no UI.
1. Nothing happens (normal UI without function)
2. The entire UI is invisible (like ALT+Y)
I changed the Vehiclebar.lua with a version from github and try some other things. The only difference - it works on my maincharacter but i don´t know why.
My supposition - the problem is the fact "infight". While questing (for example) all works fine.
I hope for some help pls.
EDIT: Found out the problem, this only happens if you DON'T have your talents saved as a loadout (no loadouts created for the spec, just using DEFAULT), if you have not created a loadout then the abilities slotted to the action bars 2 and 3 (possibly others) will share between specs when you switch to a different class spec.
---------------------------------------------
Having a problem with bar 2 and 3, they won't switch to my third spec.
Rogue, mainly playing Outlaw, when I switch to Assassination the abilities will switch, however when I switch to Subtlety which is my third spec it will display the abilities I have slotted for OUTLAW?
When I am in Subtlety spec, moving those buttons on bar 2 and 3 will also move them for my Outlaw spec.
I suspect this is a bug. It doesn't do this on my warrior, I can play Arms, Fury, or Prot and bar 2 and 3 can slot separate abilities for each spec.
Hi, I cannot find similar problem anywhere but I cannot see quality ranks on my consumables, like runes, potions, etc.
Is there an option to toggel and I'm too blind to find it or Bartender blocks it out?
Hello All,
Is there a way to NOT have bars switch between specs? I am a monk and run 3 different specs so for 2 bars I want dynamic buttons but for the other 4 bars I run I want them to be static. Is this possible?
Hallo!
First: Thanks for this addon. One of my staples since I can recall.
Second: I'm not sure if this is expected, but I haven't encountered this prior to my return for Dragonflight. I always use a macro that I manually click on the action bar to toggle the button lock state of BT4. My macro is: /bt buttonlock
When I click the macro I get the message that buttons are unlocked, however I cannot move any of the buttons. If I click, hold, and drag the macro button a bit and then move it back, the rest of my bars remain unlocked. Hitting the macro when I'm done will lock everything again. If I assign a hotkey to that keypress, it will behave normally as it always has. It's only when I manually click and release the button that I encounter this behavior.
I have a feeling this may be expected because it behaves as it used to if I uncheck "Toggle on action on key press instead of release" (is that new?) Is it actually firing the macro twice on key press?
Thanks!
Hello, merry Christmas at everyone!
I have an issue whit the evoker's cast.
Although i have this following settings
Esc>Option>Game>Combat>Input for enhanced spells>Hold and release
When charging "Breath of Fire" or "Eternity Sourge talent spell, on relase of the keyboard key, the cast instead make ending and starting the spell, the casting continues to advance, ignoring my relase command.
How can i solve this? Thanks.
