Known Issues
Metamap minimap button is incompatable due to the way it is handled in the addon.
The addon does not grab button that do not have a name currently.
Currently discovered addons that are this way are:
Enchantrix (Part of Auctioneer Advanced)
onRaid
The Blizzard buttons that only show up under certain conditions, (battleground, LFG) will only display on the Frame when they are shown normally and active scanning is enabled. Otherwise they will apprear on the minimap when they are shown.
The Add feature is a little more powerful than I originally expected. So you can accidentally grab things that you didn't expect to be able to. (Other Addons) I've tried to protect the blizzard interface features and a couple other things, but let me know if you can grab something that you don't think you should be able to. If you do accidentally add something to the bag you can always remove it.
I've added a lot to the Localization, so it's another quick and dirty, horrible translation. Thanks again for the crazyness Google. So if you can do a better translation please help me out and submit it to me so I can add it to MBF. Hopefully Google didn't make them too funny or offensive.
Note:
The ability to add minimap icons to the table can be a general or partial name of the icons. The button override table add should be the exact name of the button that you want to override and collect.
As always your feedback is more than welcome!

Originally posted by Kudane I had this exact problem and it turned out to be Fubar's Location_FU was disabling the minimap icon... Check *Any* map addon you have to see if any of them have the minimap day/night or calendar icon disabled (they are the same button). Or in the case of Fubar Location_Fu -- "minimap bar"
I'm using Chinchilla and the Calendar is not disabled in it but it's missing every time i log in. I don't think i have any other map addons.
Edit: When I disable MBF it still doesn't show up so I guess it's doing more to help the situation than anything hehe.
Edit #2: Ok it's SLDT's clock that's hiding the calendar but I think it's supposed to pulse when there's an invitation. Okee Dokee
Edit #3: Ya ok there's an option in sldt for it. Yay.

You were right. Sexymap has options to show/on hover/hide icons though i had the options of allowing it to handle button visibility disabled. Thanks =)

Any ideas ?

I have this issue. Great, that my minimap addon supports calendar toggle through right-clicking on current time.
Another bug that makes me sick (I'm really really annoyed about it) is the "MBF" bar changes orientation depending on how many icons it has. It is "horisontal, drops down on right click" by default, but when it wants - it changes to "vertical, drops right on right click". If I set "alternative location" it goes to "horisontal, drops top" and when it wants - to "vertical, drops left". Extremely annoying and messes the whole UI.

Only button I can not get it to grab is the CT_Mod icon. I went into the CT_Core.Lua and made sure it had a name (CTMod2_MinimapButton) but even when I add that name to the "should be a button" list it will not grab it.
Might want to add CT_Mod to your list of known addons that it won't grab.
Well I'd have to say thats a new one for me. I'm running omen and I'm not getting that error. It could be sexymap or either Omen or MBF or one of the Libraries aren't updated properly. I'll go through and make sure that the Libraries that MBF uses haven't been updated.
i keep getting this error when im in the menu for MBF trying to change settings and it counts up until i log. seems to be an issue with sexymap and this, maybe omen too. I have updated all 3 of those and it persists

There are settings that allow you to choose what side the bar is on.
