WeakAuras 2
WeakAuras is a powerful and flexible framework that allows the display of highly customizable graphics on World of Warcraft's user interface to indicate buffs, debuffs, and other relevant information. This addon was created to be a lightweight replacement for Power Auras but has since introduced more functionalities while remaining efficient and easy to use.
Features
- An intuitive and powerful configuration interface
- Custom textures including all textures from Power Auras and Blizzard's spell alerts
- Progress bars and textures that show the exact duration of auras
- Displays based on auras, health, power (mana, rage, soul shards, holy power, etc.), cooldowns, combat events, runes, totems, items, and many other triggers
- Preset and user-defined animations
- Custom side-effects such as chat announcements or sounds
- Grouping, which allows multiple displays to be positioned and configured at the same time
- CPU optimizations such as conditional loading/unloading of displays, modularity, and prevention of full aura scanning
- Powerful customization options, such as animation paths, on-show/on-hide code, and custom triggers, for Lua-savvy users
Quick Start
To open the options window, type /wa
or /weakauras
into your chat and hit enter or use the minimap icon.
Extensions
- WeakAuras Companion: This application adds the missing link between Wago.io and the World of Warcraft addon, enabling you to update your auras in a convenient fashion.
- WeakAuras_StopMotion: This addon adds a new region type to WeakAuras that allows for stop motion animations. Stop Motion textures contain each frame of the animation as a separate image. The addon ships with a number of animations and it supports custom textures.
- SharedMedia for more bar textures.
- SharedMediaAdditionalFonts for more fonts.
- ColorPickerPlus for a better version of the WoW color picker that includes class color templates and a copy and paste function.

I use Bartender and Icehud, plus a few others that haven't been updated yet (recount, threatplates). I'll just wait until everything is updated before checking again. Thanks for the quick replies.
Greetings,
For my DoT timers (icons), the timer text works fine, but there is no longer a radial cooldown clock effect. I want to say that it was activated by the 'cooldown' checkbox under the Icon display settings. I have checked and unchecked it a few times, and the cooldown text remains, just no clock effect. I've also checked all other settings, but can't find a fix.
Hope that was detailed enough Sweet addon though, immensely useful. Thanks for the hard work!
I guess you uninstalled OmniCC?
OmniCC? Fraid I don't know what that is. I'll look it up
Nope, never had Omni installed. Was (is) it part of the Weak Aura package? I have checked the out of date addons, wow settings, etc. Sorry if this is vague.
Do you use Elv/TukUI then maybe?
I cannot modify load, or anything else. You completely took away almost all customizing. Also some auras are showing up for classes they arent meant to because of the fact that I cannot choose how they load properly. I also cannot even make new auras because the trigger tab has no place to select what im tracking.
I have no idea what you are talking about, screenshot maybe?

There are 3 images. You will see that nothing is able to be modified. Also certain functions will not work that did last night. I got all my other auras to work now, but Ascendance is not functioning properly.
WoW no longer supports mp3s, you have to use OGG now.
custom sounds no working as well.
keep the hard work guys long live to wow!!
That looks like a problem with ElvUI addon skins
will you eloborate on that
thanks
I'm also having this issue. OmniCC is installed and updated to 6.02. Something broke the interaction
As of 10-14-14 my auras are not showing the cooldowns on things like personal buffs and target debuffs.
I guess you uninstalled OmniCC?
As of post-patch, weakauras is not working for me. It doesn't even show up in the interface tab under addons, though it does show up in addons.
Any errors?
This does not seem to fix the issue I tried restarting wow after changing the path and it still is just green boxes
