Action Bar Saver Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v2.3.2

by: Shadowed [More]

Quick little mod, allows you to setup different profiles for your action bars. Mainly this is for hybrid classes that want to be able to respec without spending 10-20 minutes setting their action bars up. All you do is type /abs save <name> and it'll save the location of all your spells, macros and items.

For example, if you're currently a Feral Druid you can type /abs save feral then you can respec to Resto and setup your bars, then type /abs save resto once you go respec back to Feral you can then train all your spells again and type /abs restore feral and you'll get your feral setup without all the work of actually finding where you placed things.

Works with any custom interface like Bongos provided you're not using more then the standard 120 action buttons, ones that provided features to go past 120 will cause only the standard 120 to be saved/restored. This isn't a bug however, just a limitation in the WoW API

Yep works perfectly. I was also able to save a my bars in Bongos, exit the game, relog with rBars enabled instead and it restored just the way I had it.

Saved me a ton of time, thanks and great job.

I got the following error when typing "/abs save beegee" to save my bars using Bongos. I'm using 3 of the bars with 12 buttons each (total 36).

*note: beegee is a random name I used, does you need to use a specific set of names.

*notex2: if you would like error reports elsewhere, just let me know.

error:

Code:

Interface\AddOns\ActionBarSaver\ActionBarSaver.lua:53: attempt to index field 'profileData' (a nil value)

Forum posts: 366 File comments: 2493 Uploads: 99	It depends, if Bongos is expanding beyond 120 action buttons then only the first 120 will be restored (API Limitation), but yes it should correctly restore all of the buttons. I haven't actually tried switching between UF's yet and doing restores, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

Shadowed ... Forum posts: 366 File comments: 2493 Uploads: 99	You can now use auto save correctly again without it corrupting your profiles. You will need to set your current profile via /abs restore if you want it to start auto saving to that character

Forum posts: 366 File comments: 2493 Uploads: 99	The specific file you want to save is located inside <WoW Path>\WTF\Account\<ACCOUNT NAME>\SavedVariables\ActionBarSaver.lua Generally if you want to make sure you have all your addons/addon config saved then you want to backup the entire Interface and WTF folders.

erica647 A Cobalt Mageweaver Forum posts: 209 File comments: 213 Uploads: 4	Is there a file that needs to be backed up should one be concerned about hard drive crashes or a total reinstall of an operating system? I do a lot of switching UI's around and it would save a lot of time to be able to restore my buttons on the fly. Thanks! __________________ Karadra Level 80 Human Deathknight Silvermoon/Nerfed Guild

DJJoeJoe A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 5 File comments: 168 Uploads: 1	great update, am I wrong or are you saving items on char also or something? What exactly is up with that?

Shadowed ... Forum posts: 366 File comments: 2493 Uploads: 99	Lots of improvements in r615, I'm fairly sure I have it working perfectly now even if you delete macros, or have items equipped but not in bags. Also includes more verbose information about what it failed to restore.

Shadowed ... Forum posts: 366 File comments: 2493 Uploads: 99	It should work with any custom UI, provided they only use 120 action buttons, ones that do specific custom code to give you more then 120 buttons will cause ABS to only save/restore for those 120 but not the custom ones. Forgot to add this to the description, fixed

Shadowed ... Forum posts: 366 File comments: 2493 Uploads: 99	Fyi latest version fixes issues with it restoring messed up profiles, you will need to resave them but it'll save by name/rank now, instead of spell index. Looking into fixing the macro issue with a better way of identifying them then by index as well.
