AutoBar is a Multi-bar mod that automatically adds potions, water, food, quest and other items you specify into buttons for easy use.
- Does not use up action slots.
- You can create your own categories of items, dragging items from bags, or spells from spell books into it.
- You can make custom Buttons that contain 1 or more Custom or Built in categories.
- You can create custom Bars to organize your Buttons to suit your interface needs.
WoW has thousands of items you may obtain. AutoBar automatically organizes frequently used items for you, saving you the drudgery of dragging stuff from your bags to an action bar. Since AutoBar does not use up the limited action slots available, you can save those for your spells and abilities.
Please Note: I am not currently playing the game, so while I can easily do some fixes and code management, there is a lot that I cannot easily do. Primarily that is content like new spells on the class bar, as well as new categories that make sense for a given expansion. This is where I hope the community can step up. For those who are able, I now have a GitHub repo set up (linked in the project page) so people can submit PRs. If you're not a coder you can still contribute by submitting issues for missing content, poor translations, etc.
I have a subscription solely for the purpose of maintaining addons, so if you would like to donate to offset the costs of my subscription, you can do so here: Donate via PayPal
Any chance someone will pick this up to make changes? I am going crazy without AutoBar!!! Heck I would donate for the cause
Does this addon pick up Shadowcore Oil?
If yes, where do I find it? None of my characters see Shadoecore in the addon
Dear Muffin Man: Any chance of a wrath update? Absolutely nothing works and I miss my autobar so much! TIA

How can I add Horde Battle Standard to the battle standards group, and also I want to create a group for battlegrounds that has potion of defiance, saltwater potion, potion of heightened senses on it. How can I do that?

Hope one day you will release update to wrath classic version, big thanks for your updates =)
Hello,
first of all I love this addon since the beginning. :)
Now my question: Is there a reason, why the trinket "First Sigil" doesn't appear on the trinket button in the bar?
All the other trinkets work fine.
Thanks for your help! :)
In reply to r4v1ngr4bb1t:
Is it a relatively new trinket? If so, then it just hasn't been added. If it's older, then it's because the datamining made a mistake and it was missed.
In reply to r4v1ngr4bb1t:
The author has unfortunately stopped updating the addon. You should be able to add the trinket you want though with a simple edit of the lua code.
in World of Warcraft\_retail_\Interface\addons\AutoBar\retail\MuffinLibPTSets\LibPT-Muffin.Gear.lua at the end of the first chunk of numbers (the trinkets useable section) add ", 188271" (don't include the quotes, but put it inside the quotes that are in the lua). That should, I think, add the first sigil to the buttons.
if you want to add future trinkets get the itemID (the number above) of the new trinket (which you can find in the wowhead address bar, the item=#####) and add it just like above.
That's the extent of my knowledge of lua coding. So I'm hoping that blizzard doesn't make any major changes to the addon codes cause I'd have no idea how to fix it.
Thank you so much for the recent update. I really appreciate it!
I would like to add the "Dark Portal"-Item from TBC deluxe package to the category as the hearthstone.
Any hints are appreciated.
Getting some bugs, as you'd expect, with 9.2. Hovering over the hearthstone button gets you a error, as below:
259x FrameXML\RestrictedExecution.lua:473: Cannot call restricted closure from insecure code

Anyone with LUA coding XP got any ideas?
thank you for your contribution and providing something so useful! I am currently having trouble with the move button...button and was wondering if there was anything I could do to fix it. I don't know where to post such things so hopefully you will see this or someone can direct me on what I need to do to fix it. Thanks!
In reply to midnyghtwolfess:

TY both for the responces i will miss it wen it going to give errors :(
ive tryied LiteMount and its not close to what i want,
thanks again for the work, im not a coder but i can manage to kill errors
and im trying FFVIX, and i can say i dont dislike!
Regarding the Final Release Announcement:
I don't play WoW. I try each new expac, but they interest me less and less each time. For me personally, Warlords of Draenor was the real start of a sharp downward trend. I bounced off Shadowlands hard. I played just enough to get all of the addons working and that was it.
Because of my Patreon I was able to maintain a subscription to do occasional fixes, but it wasn't much money to cover the amount of time required to keep things working the way I wanted for a game I wasn't playing.
Activision Blizzard have really been dicks to addon authors. There is so much they could do to make our jobs easier, but they don't care.
All of this had me on the fence, but the lawsuits and scandals pushed me over the edge. Supporting a company that doesn't support addon creators, that doesn't care about the quality of their games, and doesn't care about the welfare of their own staff? Pass.
In reply to MuffinManKen:
Well, I'd like to take this opportunity to say a simple "thank you". Your addon has been in my top 3 for as long as I can remember, but I totally understand your decision. Take care MMK, have a great rest of your life!!!
Dave.
bin using this addon since it first came out, looooong time ago, im very sad to see its final release :(
but if u could just do a one button for the mounts, its all ive bin using, this and the button to open chests,
but really the only thing i would love to see is the mount button!!! i think i could pay u for it really no joke !!!!!
pleaz think about it
In reply to Mariodepot:
You can make "one buttons" for any of the current buttons by making a custom bar with... one button, then moving the button you want to use onto that bar.
Just go to the section of the settings for Bars and click New (top left). A new bar will be formed in the panel on the left called Custom1. Click on it to get access to its settings (the big panel on the right), scroll down a bit to General and give it one column and one row. You'll then need to give it a button. You can do this from the same tab of the settings. Look at the panel on the left again, and find the bar called Extra (that's where the Mount button is by default). Click on the Extra bar + to expand the list of its buttons, find the Mount button and click on it. Then look at the panel on the right again. Near the top, you'll see a Bar Location drop down with Extra under it. Adjust that to Custom1.
You can go through the same process for the chest button. Instead of Mounts, you want to find the Openables button. I think by default that's on the Basic bar, can't remember. I do this for Quest items so I can have a nice big custom button for all the Quest items I need to use near the middle of my screen.
You might also want to look at the Litemount addon for a really powerful Mount button.
As for stopping, well, I'm not surprised. Firstly we never know what is going on in a person's life in these circumstances, so we just thank them and wish them well. But players are also not very good at the "pay what you can" economy, to say the least.
