About Elkano's BuffBars

{{{

!html

This addon provides status bar style indicators for the buffs and debuffs that are currently applied to your character.
It will also show temporary weapon buffs like eg poisons, counts for stackable debuffs or buffs with charges and the debuff borders introduced with 1.11.
Hopefully this addon will have a much smaller memory footprint than other addons of its kind by using CreateFrame in order to instaciate only as many frames as needed.

USAGE:
Install the addon as you would do with any other addon. When buffs/debuffs are shown you can move the frame by leftclicking and draging it around.
Slash commands for changing size, lock frames, ... are: /ebb or /elkbuffbar

If you find any bugs feel free to tell me about them using my author portal at http://elkano.wowinterface.com/

Installation Guide

Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
  - Windows XP a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
  - WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
  - WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
  - StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
Start World of Warcraft
Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.

Translations

When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".

TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)

When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.

If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support

WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.

Can anyone tell me how to make the buff bar that shows windfurry and rogue poisons stack under the regular buff bar like in the screenshot?

I've tried simply moving it under the buff bar but then when I'm fully buffed it passes over this bar. I've seen vidoes were this bar moves with the regular buff bar so I know it's possible.

Any help is welcome, thank you.

With Elkano's BuffBars if i have a weapon buff while I log on, or apply it while logged on, it shows it using blizzards UI as well. To get rid of it i need to toggle "Hide Blizzard Trench" on, and, and then off again. What is wrong with this xD.

Instead of spending several hours getting a bunch of buffs/debuffs on the black/white filter list, why not implement a feature allowing users to type the debuff names to be filtered or show those only. Please? I find this more faster and efficient to show certain buffs/debuffs by typing our their full name. I usually had to edit saved lua variables to do that.

Edit: and sometimes the filter list gets so filled up i can't even go through every single one of them to place a checkmark inorder to white/black list them.

Hey great addon but i found a bug.. If u use talents like Enhancing Totems(8%/15% more str/agi from totems), then EBB does´nt show the increased amount of strength and agility. It would be cool if it would :) I guess this is a bug for all that type of increasing talents etc. Please get it fixed and the addon will be perfection

You never noticed that that is a "bug" in the client itself, did you?

is there any way to disable the place holder bars, the "demonstration" bars when there are no other things to display, but without removing the anchor bar?

Anyone know how to set this mod up to show only the debuffs on a target that come from you only and not from other sources? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I've noticed poisons are in green, but rest of the debuffs are in red. Is there any way to change that so you can see the diffrence between curses, magics and so on.

Makes debuffing easier :)
(Or any other solution that can solve my problem)

De-/buff times for units other then the player (and maybe its pet) will only show up if the coresponding de-/buff was cast by the player. There is no time information available from the client in the other case so nothing I could do about it.

what you see is coloring debuffs by type. This can be disabled in the groups' settings.
Red is a normal debuff, blue a magical, green a poison, yellow/brown a desease and purple a curse, clensable with the matching spells. So this colors can help you decide if you can remove them with specific dispells.

Hi, first off, love the addon.
I'm doing a custom UI and I'm placing the EBB down near the bottom of my screen. The space i've alotted for EBB is not too big, so here's my question:
Is there a way to set the maximum number of buffs shown for a certain group? I always want to have the one with the least ammount of time left showing at the top, but I want it only to display 10 buffs at a time. I can't seem to find a way to do this.
