Yata
Yata - Yet Another Totem Addon
Yata is the answer to all your totem (and weapon imbue) needs
What is Yata?
Yata is a hugely flexible totem bar addon, enabling your shaman to organise their totems, cast them (individually, through the multicast spells or by /castsequence macro) and track cooldowns and timers.
Yata was originally created by Tornhoof and was one of the pioneers of totem bar support during The Burning Crusade. It has been brought up to date in Wrath of the Lich King by kaytikat.
Features
Bars
- Horizontal or vertical layout (with the ability to choose which side the pop-outs go)
- Customisable order or groups and individual totems
- Ability to hide useless or unused totems
- Fully skinnable with ButtonFacade
- Scale and position configurable
- User-configured number of rows permanently visible
- Button indicators showing which spells belong to which multicast spell
- Short tooltip support
- Key bind a spell group (e.g. a single key that will cast whichever fire totem is currently selected)
Spell Management
- Key modifier to reorder totems (default: ctrl left click)
- Key modifier to drop a totem without reordering (default: shift left click)
- Key modifier to set/clear a totem as part of a multicast spell group (default: alt left click)
- Cooldowns and timers shown on the button or on separate bars
- Destroy Totem or Totemic Call (right click and shift right click, respectively)
How to get started
Open the Blizzard interface frame and choose yata or type /yata in the chat window
Type /kb to keybind abilities
Localisation
Yata needs translating!

Posted Dec 17, 2011Sorry for not updating for 4.3
I stopped playing WoW months ago and no longer have access to an account so there will be no more updates for yata.
Anyone with wow coding experience that wants to take the project on should contact me by PM

Posted Dec 14, 2011Is there a chance this addon gets updated to work with Patch 4.3?
I really like and used this addon a lot, and your work with this addon is highly appreciated! :)

Posted Nov 30, 2011Sadly, YATA has not been working in 4.3 for me. I get all kinds of .lua errors, I can't unlock or move the bars (I can manually change the X and Y posiitons, but I only see it move if I reload the entire UI), and totem timer bars aren't working at all.
I've tried everything: disabling all addons except for YATA, deleting all YATA directories and files and then reinstalling it from scratch... nothing seems to work.
I love this addon and have used it since TBC - your work on it is so appreciated. I'm just really hoping you can help me get it working again soon.

Posted Nov 8, 2011Recently, Yata's been acting rather fishy. I'm not sure if it's an intollerance to any of my other addons or what, but the behavior is none the less annoying.
When I respec, Yata bugs. The frame stays where it is, (I have mine located above my actionbars to the lower right of the screen.) but the icons for half the buttons switch to the lower right side of the screen, at x4 scale. The icons are non-interactive and the addon works as it should normally, beyond the moved icons, which in the frame have become invisible but still interactable.
It seems to be picking up the habbit when doing any sort of craftable proffession.
Usually, a /reload fixes the issue, but still annoying.

Posted Aug 13, 2011If you're a clicker you can shift-right click on any button to totemic recall (or just right click on a totem to destroy an individual totem).
If you're a key-binder you can just go into the standard blizzard Keybinding UI and bind to the Totemic Recall option provided by the default blizzard totem interface.
I just don't see any value in a button that you'll never press and never displays any information (as the spell has no cooldown).
Is there a third use-case that I've missed that needs a button?

Posted Jul 10, 2011To be clear, I want to show it to show my original 4 totems for my Call of elements, but when I single drop grounding totem, I want the button to show grounding and not wrath of air anymore.

Posted Jul 12, 2011If you have "Auto swap call spells" ticked then casting a call spell will bring every totem that was just cast to the front.

Posted May 21, 2011I know this has been asked before, and I saw that you can cast Recall by right-clicking on the Call button, but I would really really like an option to display a specific button for Totemic Recall, too. I'd also like to say that this is a fantastic addon. I found this while looking for an addon to skin the Totem Bar, but Yata is so much more and I love it. Thank you for your work! :)

Posted Mar 9, 2011When I started using the addon I noticed that there is a compatibility issue with this and an addon called SnowfallKeyPress. When I have Yata and SnowfallKeyPress enabled and I switch specs, it causes WoW client to not respond for about a minute. Not a biggie, just a heads up for the author and other SnowfallKeyPress users.
