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.

go into settings, select your bar you want to page, then in the tab where paging is set it so that tree of life pages to a bar you dont already use.
Check the options on Bar1 under State Configuration
It will be working fine, then randomly it will reject all my keybinds and when I do /bt the tabs for the bars are blank :/
I can't even open my spell book or do anything -.- so we end up losing the rated match which is obviously a very bad thing for a competitive team :(
Please debug this issue and fix it asap, since I'm sure a lot of people are going to get skrewed over by this Y_Y
Please help. What is the fix?
If you want invisible bindings, set it to be always hidden, and not disabled.
thanks!
As we know, Bartender has several ways to switch a actionbar amoung the system actionbars (pages).
One way is to switch pages while posses or forms switching. Eg, while I switch to Moonkin form, the premier actionbar switches to page 1 (with most of my damage dealing spells in), and the secondary actionbar switches to page 2 (with most of my healing spells in); And while I switch to Tree of Life form, the premier actionbar switches to page 2, and the secondary actionbar switches to page 1.
An other way is to switch pages while holding modifier keys, such as Alt, Ctrl or Shift keys. Eg, I hold Ctrl key to switch the premier actionbar to page 1 (to cast damage dealing spells) and the secondary actionbar to page 2 (overriding any posses or forms swithing); And I hold Alt key to switch the premier actionbar to page 2 (to cast healing spells) and the secondary actionbar to page 1.
They two ways above to switch actionbars are working correctly in current version of Bartender. But there is still a way out of them. That is to switch pages while pressing Shift+1 to Shift+6 (Blizzard's original ways). In the addon options, it's called "Actionbar Paging" in "State Configuration".
So there comes the problem. With the first two ways above, we can simply switch any of the six actionbars to any custom pages. Eg, I can switch the secondary actionbar from page 2 to page 1 while the premier actionbar from page 1 to page 2.
However, the third way to switch pages can only work with the main or premier actionbar, and doesn't work with the others of the extended actionbars, including the secondary actionbar. Eg, when I press Shift+2, both the premier actionbar and the secondary actionbar switch to page 2. I cannot make these work, that when I press Shift+2, the premier actionbar switches to page 2 and the secondary actionbar switch to page 1; Also, when I press Shift+1, the premier actionbar switches to page 1 and the secondary actionbar switch to page 2.
This problem is so important for me. When I play druid, I can keep both the premier actionbar and the secondary actionbar enduringly in some kind of switching states (eg, the premier actionbar to page 2 and the secondary actionbar to page 1) with forms switching. However when I play holy priest, it's not possible to work with posses or forms switching.
So I wish you to expand the function "Actionbar Paging" in "State Configuration". Not only switching to page 1 with Shift+1, to page 2 with Shift+2, etc, but also switching to any custom pages while press Shift+1 to Shift+6.
Thank you, and to your wonderful working on Bartender.
