Action Bar Sets

Save, load and share named sets of your action bars, with undo, spec-linked sets, per-bar scope and class icons for every character.

Action Bar Sets

Save everything on your action bars as a named set, and load it back whenever you want. Keep one set per spec, per role, or per character, and switch between them in a click.

Open it from Options > AddOns > Action Bar Sets, with /abs, or from the addon compartment button on the minimap.

Features

  • Named sets of your action bars: spells, items, macros, mounts, battle pets and equipment sets.
  • Undo. Every load backs up your bars first, so one click puts them back the way they were.
  • Spec-linked sets. Link a set to a specialization and it is offered when you switch to that spec, or loaded automatically if you prefer.
  • Per-bar scope. Choose which bars a set covers. A set saved from only some bars never touches the others.
  • Built for alts. Each set shows a class icon and the character that saved it, with filters for "my class only" and "this character only".
  • Export and import. Turn a set into a text string to share with friends or move between accounts.
  • Rename and duplicate sets.
  • Quick-load menu from the addon compartment button, without opening the options.

Commands

Command What it does
/abs Open the settings panel
/abs save <name> Save the current bars
/abs load <name> Load a set, clearing buttons that are empty in it
/abs merge <name> Load a set without clearing anything
/abs undo Restore the bars from before the last load
/abs delete <name> Delete a set
/abs export <name> Show a string to copy and share
/abs import Paste a shared string
/abs list List saved sets

/actionbarsets works as an alias.

Good to know

  • Action bars cannot be changed in combat, so loading is disabled until combat ends.
  • Macros and equipment sets are saved by name. They load only if one with the same name exists on the character.
  • Flyouts and a few other special buttons cannot be saved. They are reported as "unsupported" and left alone.
  • Stance and override bar slots and the pet bar are not managed.
  • Exported strings do not include spec links, and battle pets only place on the account that owns them.
