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.

Adavidmundt,
Lol, the Extra Action bar is used for localized functions. For example, in the Dragon Soul Raid the Extra Action bar gets filled multiple times with 'buttons' that will either save your life or reduce the damage you take (depending on which boss encounter you are on). Please make sure that you have the Extra Action bar enabled before attempting these fights (Utraxion and Madenss of Deathwing).
The Extra Action bar is not an action bar for you to put your spells on. As I mentioned previously, this button is for special situations in which it is called for =)
Downloaded BT, set it up on all my toons, loaded action bars with all my hits/buffs/debuffs/mounts/heals you know the drill. Went into battle in Eye of the Storm, selected a target, hit the Charge button (Warrior) nothing happens, get jumped, try to fight back, nothing. Die. While dead, I noticed three of my action bars are empty! Think I have done something stupid so I re did everything. Worked in PvE.
Switched to hunter, went into battle in BG, can't fight, disarmed on this alt also.
NOW, I have to go back, uninstall Bartender, use another addon and redo my whole set up. Pain in the butt, hours of game time missed.
Just so you know.
Waralfa, Grizzly Hills, For the Horde
The item buttons on the objective menu aren't working (quest items that require use like bandages). Is this a bartender conflict? I can't find anything in bartender or the interface menu to enable. Thanks.
been having to same problem... works fine on my druid but i get on my hunter and they dont work ..... anyone got ideas???
please and thank you
Help!!! Jsut kidding. Is there a beta of the Bartender for the new expansion beta???? I am dying without it. Would love to test it in the new beta all of my addons are broke but this is the major one i cant live without...
Keep up the awsome addon......
i love bartender, except when i enter something like a friends hog or mount that holds more then one person, the button to jump out doesnot apear? is there a salution to this?
Are you making sure that your Vehicle Bar is enabled?
My XP bar is no longer working! If I disable Bartender, it works find, I can see if I just left click on Icon, but once I lock ok, it disappears
im not sure if im doing this correctly since this is my very first post..now i love using bartender4 and only problem ive been having is that when im pvping i get an error that says interface failed due to an addon..Now since i have many addons i used a tracker to see which addon was giving me that issue.. and came up with this
5/6 02:54:05.615 An action was blocked in combat because of taint from Bartender4 - MultiCastActionButton1:Hide() 5/6 02:54:05.615 Interface\FrameXML\ActionButton.lua:259 ActionButton_Update() 5/6 02:54:05.615 Interface\FrameXML\ActionButton.lua:484 ActionButton_OnEvent() 5/6 02:54:05.615 Interface\FrameXML\ActionButton.lua:105
this shows up on my logs a couple of times..wondering if you can help me with this. if you need more info plz email me at abelopez2001@yahoo.com thanks again for a great addon and hopefully you can help me fix this issue.
When i installed Bartender4 now my LFR and Dungeon Journal buttons are gone, Any1 else got that? And does any1 know how to fix it? ive tried lookin at the settings but i cant find it and get em back.!
Did you install anything else as well? That sounds like a mini-map hiding them, or a button collector. BT4 does not do anything with the mini-map buttons AFAIK
Is there a way to disable the combat-lockdown? For in-combat integration with kgPanels.
cant make tickets bartender is preventing me..? have to disble it..
Need an update its making my game run a slow and chopy since the new pach. I love this mod but can't use it on my laptop anymore
I notice a big difference with and without it on during game play.
I really wish I could use it again
Addons themselves have very little effect on gameplay itself unless you are stacking a TON of addons. As you know, addons use memory. Whereas World of Warcraft runs primarily on CPU, and while addons may have a slight downside (perhaps 1-3 fps) if used in abundance they are generally not responsible for the 'lag.' Addons will simply increase how long your loading screen stays up, and if you are fine with a long loading period then I see no reason to restrain yourselve from download myriads of addons (after making sure that none of them conflict)!
