Bongos2  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.10.1
by: Tuller [More]

I have written a new action bar addon, called Dominos, and am no longer supporting this one. Please feel free to try it out, along with Trinity Bars, and Bartender 3


Bongos is an action bar replacement designed to be both low memory, and easy to setup. It is not as feature rich as other bar mods, but should include the features most commonly used.

Version History
A Brief Guide

Included Addons

  • Bongos2: The core addon.
  • Bongos2 ActionBar: Breaks up the main action bar into movable parts
  • Bongos2 Stats: A display for latency, framerate, and memory usage
  • Bongos2 RollBar: Makes the frame for rolling on items movable
  • Bongos2 CastBar: A movable casting bar, with the ability to show cast time
  • Bongos2 XP: A movable experience bar
  • Bongos2 MapBar: A movable mapbar
  • Bongos2 Options: A dynamically loaded options menu for Bongos

Features
  • Every Bongos bar can be moved, hidden, and have its scale and opacity altered
  • Sticky bars - Each bar can be anchored to any other bar
  • 120 action buttons, which can be setup in any number of bars
  • Both macro and key binding text on action buttons can be hidden
  • Customizable stance transitions for each bar

General Settings
  • To bring up the options menu: type /bongos menu
  • To unlock bars: uncheck the lock bars option in the main options menu
  • To hide or show a bar: unlock bars, then middle click or shift right click it
  • To move a bar: unlock bars, and then click and drag it with the left mouse button
  • To bring up a bar's configuration menu, right click it

Key Bindings
  • Bindings for the Bongos action bar should only be done via the bindings menu in Bongos
  • To bind keys, open the main options panel, and select the bindings option. Hover over a button, then press a key to bind it to that button

Action Bar Settings
  • Accessing general action bar options: open up the main options window (/bongos menu) and select the action bars panel
  • Adjusting the layout of a given bar: unlock bars and right click the bar you want to adjust to bring up its configuration menu
  • Moving buttons: Hold down the key for moving buttons (shift by default), and drag a button. Alternatively, unlock button positions by shift right clicking the mini map button, or unchecking the option in the main options menu
  • Making a bar bigger: You can increase the maximum size of a given bar by reducing the number of action bars. To do so, adjust the action bars slider on the action bar panel of the main options menu. This option will reset the settings of your action bars

Stances and Paging
  • Stances and paging are configured via a bar's right click menu. With bars unlocked, right click the bar you want to change,

Slash Commands
  • All commands start with either /bongos, /bob, or /bgs
  • <barList> can have a possible value of an actionbar number, menu, bags, pet. class, or all
  • You can also specify a group or range of bars, the command /bo scale 1-3 class 1.2 will scale action bars 1 2 3, and the class bar to 120% of their normal size.
  • /bongos - Shows the options menu, if present
  • /bongos lock - Toggles locking bars positions
  • /bongos show <barList> - Shows <barList>
  • /bongos hide <barList> - Hides <barList>
  • /bongos toggle <barList> - Toggles <barList>
  • /bongos scale <barList> <scale> - Sets the scale of <barList> to <scale>
  • /bongos setalpha <barList> <opacity> - Sets the opacity of <barList> to <opacity>
  • /bongos set <profile> - Sets the current character to use <profile>
  • /bongos copy <profile> - Copies all settings from <profile>
  • /bongos delete <profile> - Deletes <profile>
  • /bongos reset - Loads default settings
  • /bongos version - Displays what version of bongos you're running
  • /keybound - Toggles keybinding mode

I have a serious problem with bongos2.
I respecced restoration with my druid and noticed that when I click on the shiftbar on the tree from icon, it turns me into my flight form. Flight form button does aswell. So the Tree of Life button doesnt work. It works with hotkeys, but not clicking on it.

EDIT: I whined too soon. Looks like its only when you respec newly. A relog fixes it.

I would also like to be able to hide the keyring.

Like Shinzen below, I can't seem to get any of the Bongos options working right. The map button will unlock & lock the bars but won't open the Bongos options panel. Here's the error message I got. It might just be a conflict. I don't know why Prat & Cartographer are being reported as 1 error with Bongos. Maybe it's all a Rock problem. I don't know. Anyway, here goes -

4) log in, setup bongos, have fun!

P.S. Tuller plz make Sage more configurable, I want to use it too
Thanks! I implemented the fix in the development version

Or, you can grab the bag.lua from the previous version until the author makes the key ring box hidable!

Same with me. Also, I had a watched faction and pre-2.2 the Bongos xp bar only showed xp. Now it shows the reputation. Why did this default behavior for the xp bar change? Can you add an option for it to ignore your faction settings?

bug in 1.8.1

Ok I updated bongos after I patched..
Since many of my mods are not yet updated I cleaned out most of my saved variables..
I noticed that the buttons seemed bigger so I adjusted (in blizzard menu) my UI scale..
i put my bars and stuff back where I like them.. so far so good..

I go to resize the exp bar (it is not the size I like..)
well.. now it is like infinitely wide.. I hover I cant see the text or anything..

umm.. help? =)

It was merged with the bag bar. You can hide it by either using one bag mode, or just hiding the bag bar and using bag hotkeys too

Since patch 2.2 and the new version (1.8.1), I'm having an issue with my bars. I have bar 4 set to change to bar 2 whenever the control key is held down, which has worked perfectly before. Now, when I hold control, the bar looks like it switches to bar 2, but clicking a button still does whatever was on bar 4. I've tried the other modifiers and other bars, as well as showing bar 2, which is normally hidden.

Update: Turns out this problem was caused by Theorycraft2. Reverting to an old version of bongos did not fix it, but disabling TC2 fixes everything. Bartender3 users are having a similar issue. It saddens me that TC2 is completely dead now, here's hoping for a good alternative, or maybe I'll just have to get used to DrDamage.
