FAQ
Q: How do i access the Configuration?
A: You can open the configuration with the Slash Commands (/bt or /bar) or through the Bartender4 LDB plugin.
Q: Can Bartender4 import settings from Bartender3?
A: No. Those two mods are too different to be able to import settings.
Q: Where are my keybindings? And how do i bind new keys?
A: BT3 Keybindings will not be ported over either, you have to use the new 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: CyCircled Support? I like my button skins? :(
A: No reason to cry! There is a sparkling new skinning addon/library out there! ButtonFacade is way easier to work with as a action-bar author, and its easier to write skins for it too! Alot of cyCircled Skins have already been ported to ButtonFacade, and more are on their way! After installing ButtonFacade just use its configuration to change the skin of the BT4 buttons (/bf)
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.

When are you going to update this for 5.3?
I second this.
Seems to have a problem with Gryphonheart addon - when you use both addons the bartender4 shows all spell slots instead of just those you made to. Example: disable bartender4 for the purpose of this example.
1. Go to interface>ActionBars
2.Check "Always Show ActionBars"
So this is what happens with bartender4 either you want it or not.
There has been a bug that has been annoying me for some time. My bar 8 does not show up when Bartender loads. To get it to show I have to type /bt and then untick and retick "lock", it then shows. Is this me or is it a known bug and if so when will it be fixed?
I'm having an issue where the extra action button doesnt show up anymore.It is enabled and no visibility options are checked. No matter what I try it refuses to show. I have to disable bartender to get it to do anythign for me. Really annoying.
Reinstall fixed it.
I'm having a problem on the The Prophet Tharon'ja encounter in Drak'Tharon Keep. When I get changed into the skeleton, the ability bar doesn't change. I haven't tested on any other encounters or on any other classes yet aside from my Druid. And I do have the Possess Bar on Bar 1 checked, but it doesn't change. Tried checking Vehicle bar enabled too just in case, but that didn't work either. =/
this happens to me on my hunter
What improvedlol said. Sorry for uncostructive post.
update the rogue bar asap. Can't use bt4 if 10% of my shadow dance are going to fail (bar not swapping)
So question. This seems to be almost required for like...any UI mod, And yet it seems to be automatically making 2 bars on the sides of my windows that I can't change or edit in any way shape or form. I'm trying to use Mistra's Diablo Orbs and when I look at the SS for it, The bars on it are COMPLETELY different then the ones I'm getting.
Greetings, I've been using BT4 and BT4 Dual Specs for a while now and love it. I'm running into an issue that since 5.2 hit, BT4 if is causing WoW to load much much longer now. Sometimes up to 3 minutes where it's sitting at the loading screen. I've disabled every other add on except for BT4 and the ACE3 lib and it looks like this is the problem. It doesn't error out at all so I have no logs in which to pull up to even look at trying to fix it but I'm wondering if this is a common problem with most people since then or if it's just my machine. I have not uninstalled it and reloaded as I didn't want to have to reset up every user after finally getting them all setup correctly. I just wanted to post this in case someone else noticed the same issue.
10% of my shadow dances fail because the bar doesnt swap to stealth bar... Please fix asap... old bug
Hi,
When I change profiles, it's keeping all of my abilities on the same place in the bar as they were on the previous profile. Any changes I make to ability placement affect all profiles at once. How do I fix this?
Thanks
Mine's trying to default to my shaman's profile- on my monk. Really annoying.
