Troubleshooting
Lots of things can go wrong, but one of the most common is people having problems with Outfitter not working at all. Crazy stuff like tons of errors (if errors are enabled), or it won't change outfits, or the UI is a train wreck. This happens pretty much for one reason: Outfitter was updated while WoW was still running. Just restart WoW all the way from the desktop (not just from login) and it'll be happy again.
Why? Addons have a file called the Table of Contents which describes how WoW should load and start the addon. The problem is that WoW copies the ToC file into memory at startup and will never update it again as long as WoW is still running. If an addon update has changes to the ToC then WoW won't see those changes if it's still running while you update. Those changes to the ToC may include critical things like new files to be loaded. Without those files the addon likely can't even initialize itself correctly resulting in all those errors, mangled UI, etc.
Reporting Bugs
Feel free to report bugs in the comments section at the bottom of this page, but please don't paste in your bug/crash logs. Those logs are very large since they usually include the list of every addon you're running and that makes the post take a huge amount of screen space in the comments section. That, in turn, makes it very difficult for me to find previous questions and bug reports. Crash dumps are great and extremely useful, but please post them into a CurseForge ticket and then refer to that ticket in your comment so I know where to find it. Thanks!
About Outfitter
Outfitter is an equipment management addon which gives you fast access to multiple outfits to optimize your abilities in PvE and PvP, automated equip and unequip for convenience doing a variety of activities, or to enhance role-playing.
Outfitter includes an icon bar for fast access to your outfits, a minimap menu for fast compact access, support for LibDataBroker, scripting with a library of pre-made scripts for most common tasks, item comparisons across outfits, and more.
Outfitter can also generate outfits for you, optimized for a specific combination of stats you specify or using Pawn weights (must have Pawn installed).

No offense to the author of ItemRack, but it's not nearly as robust and intuitive as Outfitter.
In reply to zzTest_:
I'm not even using ItemRack, it is just not what I'm looking for.
Keep an eye on FishingBuddy for Classic as it may end up with at least something similar to what Outfitter does... at least for your cool fishing outfit ;)

What can you do with Outfitter that you can't with ItemRack?
In reply to apav:
I had a break in my play time, so I haven't used it since Mists, but:
Outfitter isn't a tiny little minimap button and actually integrates with the character frame.
Outfitter lets me update outfits, by equipping the upgrade while the profile is selected instead of making me go open a separate frame and select a different item by clicking.
Outfitter reliably switches gear automatically for things like stances (druid forms) and events. (Itemrack isn't switching weapons in combat reliably for me currently).
Outfitter lets me deposit and withdraw entire gear sets from the bank smartly (if my feral dps set shares and item with the tank set, it will deposit only the tank items, but leave any items used by another set etc).
Outfitter has the ability to equip a set when I use the fishing ability.
Outfitter is intuitive when it comes to partial sets (check boxes for items to include on the character frame).
In reply to zzTest_:
This is true. Outfitter is amazing in many ways. It even lets you make calculate your best set of gear for a particular set of stats if you configure that. It's insanely in-depth. I'd love to see Outfitter on classic, even if it was just the basics of enabling/disabling slots and easily swapping gear in a slot.
i think he/she said they wasnt doing classic....
best addon i use too so that sucks
heres to hoping they change there mind or i read it wrong
great addon ty
vote for classic, too
If this doesn't get a Classic version I'm gonna ree
Is there a plan for a Classic version of Outfitter? If not can anyone recommend another addon that will work?
I'm having issues - and have been for a little while - of Outfitter not changing outfits when I change specs. It's led me to having DPS gear when trying to heal - not fun. I've recently redone my entire addon directory and this is the only recurring problem I have. In fact, it's the one that caused me to redo my directory in the first place. I don't know if it has something to do with the new _retail_ change but it's frustrating. (Blizz's outfitter is so much garbage compared to the real outfitter.)
Please fix? Thank you kindly!
Any solution for the problem that Outfiter not change outfit when i enter a city?
In reply to TBABlackPanther:
Truthfully, in all of the years I've used Outfitter, I've never been able to automate that. I've simply just made a "Casual" outfit and clicked on it when I wanted to quickly remove my weaponry and the like.
