Elkano's BuffBars

Table of Contents

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

This seems to be a longstanding "known issue" as "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."

Any chance we will see this working?

The newest update to classic breaks it with LUA error again. Have tried the latest three versions from Alpha, Beta, and release, all broken.

EBB and Classic.

I have see many times that the option to Hide Blizzard Buffs. Will not stay hidden.. its random .. most of the time its on loading WOW. it can be resolved by unchecking hide blizzard and rechecking.

Working fine for me, so hard to debug... likely some interference from another addon.

I love this addon, been using it since vanilla. Unfortunately it's unusable as a warrior in classic because you can't click buffs off. Love your work.

I have set up a new bar group for target based debuff timers for my abilities..and nothing is appearing for any of those I am set to have tracking.

Charge stun, Rend, nothing is showing up to keep track of any of debuffs I have currently active on my target whatsoever

Also, I am using the most current released file for EBB, and getting this issue.

Shaman weapon buffs are not working, neither is tracking in the weapon buff anchor.
Mouseovering causes errors, requires double casting for the weapon enchants to register. In classic.

With tracking I mean mineral, herb etc trackings.

The setting to remove tracking icon from minimap does not work either.

Blizzard frames keep popping back in every now and then even though they are disabled.

I noticed that this was on the Classic list in Twitch, but it's not working. I'm getting the following error:
