[Help] [Bartender]I have an ability within Bear Form that keeps getting changed to something else.

How to hide pre-set proc glows on ability icons? [help]

I cannot figure out how to prevent Wrath and Starfire icons from displaying the proc glow during their eclipse.

I tried just making them into /cast macros and it still automatically added the dynamic glow.

I have WAs setup to glow for different triggers bc the built in dynamic settings are clunky af.

[help] Main backpack icon missing

https://preview.redd.it/vcvjqrj6s20e1.png?width=258&format=png&auto=webp&s=fe7e775d224af71b2e9857106c0c33326abd5030

Hi all.

I resubbed yesterday and started playing around with my UI before starting TWW. I've finally got it the way I like it but I'm having a problem with the backpack icon.

I downloaded Bartender4 and Masque and this happened to my bag bar. If I turn off Bartender, the icon reappears so I know that it is the culprit. Is there a hidden setting I'm missing where it has turned the icon off?

[WA] WeakAuras cooldown plus duration in the same WeakAura

I don't actually need help, I'm just posting a solution I worked out because I couldn't find it when I was googling for it. This is for if you want a WeakAura to show you both the cooldown and duration of a spell you apply (probably to yourself—I made this for Spell Reflection on my prot warrior), but don't want two layered WeakAuras on top of each other to do it.

  • In the Display tab at the top, Enable Swipe and Show "Swipe" in Swipe Overlay Settings. (I had Hide Timer Text and Show Text to display %p due to having ElvUI.) Maybe enable Glow temporarily to change those settings, but make sure Show Glow is not checked by the time you go to the Trigger tab.
  • In the trigger tab, change Required for Activation to be Any Triggers, and leave Dynamic Information at "Dynamic information from first active trigger" as should be default.
  • Set your first trigger to be Aura > Player > Buff. Set it to only show on Aura(s) Found. Set your second trigger to be Cooldown/Charges/Count. Set it to always show.
  • Your conditions can be in either order, I think. My conditions are, in order:
    • If All Of: Trigger 2 On Cooldown = True and Trigger 1 Active = False
      • Then Desaturate ON
    • If Trigger 1: Active = True
      • Then Glow Visibility ON

This way, you'll have an aura with a cooldown swipe for the duration of the spell, and once the aura fades, the swipe and timer text will instead reflect the spell's cooldown. The icon will be desaturated while it's cooling down, and glow when the aura's active on you.

The way this works, I'm fairly sure, is that Trigger 1 (that is, the trigger tracking the aura) is considered to be always active if it's set to Always Show. Therefore, since Dynamic Information pulls from the first active trigger to give you information for %p, you end up with the buff duration hogging the cooldown swipe. If Trigger 1 only shows when the aura is active, that means it's inactive at any other point, so when the buff isn't on your character, Dynamic Information goes to the first active trigger—this being the second total trigger, ie the cooldown/recharge timer.

This is why the triggers have to be ordered in the way they are, too—there's no option to set Dynamic Information to take from the last active trigger, you can only do first active, custom code, or set it to pull only from specific individual triggers.

[Help] Why does wow crash whenever I load into the world a second time??

When I load into the game I am fine.. I can go somewhere or get summoned to a mythic. When the mythic is over teleporting out of the dungeon or hearthing. Within about 20 seconds the game gets slower and then crashes.

Bug sack doesn't have anything recent when I relog. I've tried repairing, redownloading, no addons. Updated drivers. Nothing is helping!

[ui] Help me make my UI even better (for me)

I want to make this quite a generic setup for all classes/specs, but not all classes use / have a class bar and so I'm wondering if there's a better place for these bars. Any ideas are more than welcome!

[HELP] Code a weakaura to display a timer and messages at certain times in that timer

Say I want a weak aura that counts up as soon as combat starts and I want a message to show up every 30 seconds. Is there an easy way to do this? Is there somewhere I can learn the LUA for it?

Id like to be able to be fluid with it so learning where I can learn to code it myself would be nice if possible.

[HELP] Does anyone know if there is a way to change which edit mode you are using through the API?

Im trying to write a basic addon that will simply set my edit mode to a specific profile anytime I log in.

I swap between desktop and laptop all the time so i constantly have to switch the edit mode.

Problem is nothing i can do seems to get any edit mode ID's to print. It cant find any profiles. Im not very experienced som im using ChatGPT to write the code. Its worked fine for my other 2 addons but this one it cant seem to crack.

The only API i can find is:

C_EditMode.ConvertLayoutInfoToString(layoutInfo) : layoutInfoAsString
C_EditMode.ConvertStringToLayoutInfo(layoutInfoAsString) : layoutInfo
C_EditMode.GetAccountSettings() : accountSettings
C_EditMode.GetLayouts() : layoutInfo
C_EditMode.OnEditModeExit()
C_EditMode.OnLayoutAdded(addedLayoutIndex, activateNewLayout, isLayoutImported)
C_EditMode.OnLayoutDeleted(deletedLayoutIndex)
C_EditMode.SaveLayouts(saveInfo)
C_EditMode.SetAccountSetting(setting, value)C_EditMode.SetActiveLayout(activeLayout)

The getlayouts is returning nothing. I am also unsure if the layout name is the ID or if the game is associating a number ID with each layout.

Any help would be great.

[help]Actionator and CraftSim very Hight CPU/Memory Usage

Hello there,
I have been having this issue in TWW, not on all of my characters however, but some seem to be consistently bad. like my Alchemist for example.
This is the usage for a simple Flask search on the AH with Alchemy window open. Dropping to 2 FPS.
Any ideas on why this is so bad, takes like a full minute+ to search for the flask + materials?

[Addon] Addon that shows rep across all characters?

I've done a few searches but no luck. Is there an addon or website that can show rep for all characters combined into one? Phrased another way, how can I view which character has the highest rep for each faction?
