About ElvUI
This is a complete user interface replacement. It's minimalistic, highly configurable, and fully featured. If you want to report a bug, you can open a ticket here (http://wow.curseforge.com/addons/elvui/create-ticket/). If there's anything you would like to discuss regarding ElvUI, you can go here (http://www.tukui.org/forums/).
Why should I use ElvUI?
ElvUI is extremely easy to configure. You can play with almost every aspect of the UI to suit your needs. Not only that, everything is packed into a single AddOn to make your life easy when updating your AddOns.
What are the features of ElvUI?
- Pre-defined layouts to suit your role.
- Bartender-like actionbars.
- Prat-like chat, with class colour names, short chat channel names, and a copy and paste feature.
- Unitframes based on oUF, highly customisable.
- Buff indicators for healers, similar to Grid.
- ClassTimers to track your buffs, debuffs, and procs.
- Skinned nameplates with "Enhanced Threat" to show whether or not you have aggro, a healer sign similar to "Healers have to die" when you're inside a battleground, and class colours.
- Easy to use keybind interface.
- Datatexts to display the time, your friends, guild members, useful stats, and more.
- Skinned blizzard frames, that's right virtually every blizzard frame is skinned to match your UI.
- AddOn skins (Deadly Boss mods, BigWigs, DXE, Recount, Skada, Omen).
The actionbars are similar to Bartender - you can have up to 5 action bars on screen, you can then move them where you want, set how many buttons you want shown, and much more.
All aspects of the unitframes can be modified to your liking, this includes the player, target, target of target, pet, pet target, focus, focus target, party, raid625 (10 man and 25 man), raid 2640 (26+ i.e. 40 man), arena, and boss frames. You can also turn on Buff Indicators to track your buffs similar to Grid, and set Filters to black or whitelist buffs and debuffs that are displayed on any of your frames.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I view my microbar? (The bar that lets you click on character panel, spellbook, LFR)
A: Middle click your minimap. If you don't have a middle click button you can hold down shift and right click the minimap.
Commands
- /kb to bring up the keybind interface.
- /elvui or /ec to bring up the config. GUI.
- /moveui to toggle anchors.
- /farmmode to turn on farm mode which enlargens your minimap so you can easily collect herbs or mine ores.
- /resetui to reset the UI back to it's default settings.
- /enable <AddOn name> to turn an AddOn on without logging out.
- /disable <AddOn name> to turn an AddOn off without logging out.
- /resetgold to reset the amount of gold for your characters displayed by the "Gold" datatext.
v3.2b
* Minor fixes for changes in v3.2
* LDB datatexts shouldn't display information that is 'n/a'
* CombatFade with pet should now be working as intended and no longer is always faded no matter what your player setting is set to.
* Fix "memory block too big" lua error when deleting a skada frame and Skada is embed right.
* Fix lua error when moving the ExtraButton frame on first UI load.
v3.2a
* Forgot to change the addon version to 3.2
v3.2
--------------------
New Additions/Changes:
* Add support for LDB to the datatexts. (You should now be able to select addons from the datatext dropdown menu that support LDB)
* Add Basic EmbedRight option. (/ec -> skins -> select addon to embed right). Works for Omen, Recount, Skada. Using this option will resize the addon to fit perfectly into the right chat window, in addition: showing or hiding the right chat panel will also show/hide the addon positioned there.
* Add TinyDPS addon skin.
* Add support to ElvUI for all languages that World of Warcraft uses
* Add auto accept invite option.
* Add flashing to the time datatext when you have a pending calendar invite.
* If the CVar "scriptProfile" is enabled. The system datatext will calculate addon CPU usage and hold down shift to view memory usage.
* Add Whisper option to the right click menu of raid units.
* Add Party Member's Target frames option.
* Make the raidUtility button wider for other languages.
* Set unitframe name text to white when class color is enabled on the health bar.
* Add 3 new keybind options Toggle Chat (Left, Right, Both).
* Prevent a blizzard frame from spawning above the minimap when creating a GM ticket.
* ActionButton size and spacing is now handled individually per bar, instead of a global setting for all bars. This may reset any actionbar size change you've made.
* Slight visual change to fonts without a shadow will now have an extremely thin shadow so you can still see the differance from the backdrop.
* Visual skin changes on Omen, Recount, Skada.
* Make the combopoint bar glow when at 5 combo points.
* Changing the ElvUI default texture to Minimalist, tweaking the core colors slightly.
* Adding "Minimalist" texture to the elvui directory. (Recount has this texture)
* Changing default for healer party frame debuff filter. Use the "DebuffBlacklist".
Fixes:
- Fix friends data-text displaying 0s and 1s next to peoples names instead of AFK/DND
* Combat fade the pet frame if its turned on in the player frame.
* Fix watch frame becoming "unattached" to the mover frame after performing a move and reloading the ui.
* Recode Recount's show/hiding of the scroll bar to properly show/hide the scrollbar for the ElvUI skin.
* Fix Datatext Mastery display string showing % sign.
* Fix addon conflict with weak auras.
* Fix issue where offline units returning '0' max health would have an empty healthbar.
* Remove a chunk of code that was forcing the mature filter off as it is no longer needed.
* Prevent Rage of Ragnaros from appearing in the RaidDebuff icon slot. To prevent a lua error.
* Fix issue with quest rewards frame. Selecting an award caused a frame to spawn over it preventing you from seeing the award.
* Fix minor skinning issue with achievement frame causing the highlight on the buttons to not display after closing the achievement frame
* Modify the AFK, DND tags that appear in friends/guild datatext and also in the tooltip so it shows as AFK instead of Away
* Role icon should appear below raid debuff icons.
* Disabling health text should no longer cause the ressurection icon from spawning out place.
* Raise the readycheck icon's sub-layer level so it won't appear behind the role icon when its shown.
* Fix lootroll text for zwTW client.
* Fixing #1 loot roll bar texture when changing the elvui core texture, it reverts to blizzard.
* Add a redundancy check to the range.lua file to help prevent errors on unitframes without units assigned.

i love this addon and it works awsome for all but one of my characters. on my Death knight i get the original bags and elvui bag to open when i visit an npc but only elv ui appears when i open bags outside of npc and its only on my dk this happens anyone got a clue what to do?
Since the new update tonight, when I install on a new toon, I get the following message.
You're using the latest alpha that had massive changes and is extremely buggy, don't use that version unless you want to help test.
First off, I love this UI. I actually kept the older version because I liked many of the features it had, such as class color preset. But I decided to try the upgrade and quickly came to love it as much. I like all the changes and started running with that.
My problem is that when I leave a dungeon ... by FPS goes from 117 to 10. I can reload the UI and everything is back to normal. I went back to the older version and did not have that problem. Has anyone else experienced this issue. If so, what is the solution for it? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
first question i have to ask do you use any action bar addons if so disable them and see if that works many people have had this problem and it has been thier actionbar addon mainly domino it may also happen with other ones. just try that if it does not work pm me and i will try to find what else could be the problem
Thanks for the follow up comment. I know that I have not run any addon for the action bars, only what is "built in" the UI. I thought it might be an addon and so I reinstalled the UI over the previous version so that I maintained all the same addons. So far I have not had an issue with the new UI with that installation.
Admittedly, when we go back to put back the addons we once had, we sometimes come across one that seems like a really great addition, which I may have done that as well. the problem is I am not sure which one that may be. I usuallly try to limit my addons for the sake of better performance.
The new ElvUI has a great bar addon built in and frankly I cannot imagine needing a different one for that funtion. The only thing that I can think of I tried is TradeSkillMaster and the associated addons. My belief it is in that addon, but have not tested it to be sure.
Thanks again for such a great UI/addon for this game.
Hi, great addon. I use it already for a long term. Bevore i used dominos for buttons but now i changed to the original.
Mainly i play with my prist and my warlock. When i change the form (shadow) by the prist, the AB1 change to another. Fine!
i do the same with my demo Wl and nothing happens!?? Any ideas?
Regards
I've been using this addon for a few weeks now, and everything has been PERFECT, up until this last update. I updated the addon, and now my name plate is bugging out. I can see the enemy name plate just fine, but my own name plate is invisible. If I click on the spot where it should be, I can see that I've targeted myself. This happens both in and out of combat, and is uneffected by the option to make it hide when not in combat. When I first log in, it displays my name plate properly, but after some time it just vanishes again. I've reloaded the UI several times now, and it hasn't really done anything but reset some of the settings.
Hello. Like the idea of this addon, and still experimenting with this UI

Could you add more tips and functions in Description tab?
I was wondering how do i get the bottom right panel back to its visable state?
http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/7846/wowscrnshot022012042102.jpg
there is a small button on the right side and left side that hides and brings the chat frames back.
If you look in the SS, the bottom left panel has a <, this button will minimze that window. On the rigth, if you move your mouse over the area down in that corner, that same indicator will show itself and you can click it to make the window come back.
I have a question
I would like to remove the green state of an aura button , cause i cannot see what aura is below this button (For ex ; Aura Devotion )
when i enable it , the Aura devotion button in action become green and the icon disapear...
Someone get the solution ?
@ phoebian1 elv ui does on search or filter guild bank tabs just you personel bank and you bags.
@cycloops007 what other addons on are you using it cant just be elvui are you using any other action bar addons? if so disable those and try again.
I have another problem, other one is solved.
When I draw my ui Scale back to low, how can I move my 2 chat frames back to the left and the right? Because I can't move them.
How can I enlarge my chat?
I can't do it somehow..
