this helped a lot just now getting back into wow, had a ridiculous amount of addons wasn't as clean and simplistic as i wanted it to be and then I found your video and boom solve all that quick fast in a hurry.
@@wakemylight4358 Ok so on my player bar when I'm in a bg or there are people around and were fighting something or they case ability's. its like it pops up over my player bar ability's and then I cant click my ability's because of that I tried toggling the anchors but whatever it is is connected to the the bar associated with my ability's in short i cant figure out how to move or keep that from showing over my ability keys. some help would be much apricated and its not the cooldown of the ability that was my first thought
@@myster_ink8115 hmm, I am slightly confused on what you are referring to tbh. If you want, you can send me a dm on discord with a screenshot of what you are mentioning. (wakemylight#3243) Otherwise, the only thing I can thing is moving the bars and such to see what is sticking or overlapping. you can break the stickyness with the "stickyframes" box or holding down shift. but ya, if you can send me a screenshot of your toggled frames and/or when it is occuring, I can try and help out :)
After setting this up. i dont know what I did but when I go to my addon menu. The words where it say load out of date addons comes out of the box. any way i can fix this to make them stay in the box?
You can have them! in Elvui, go to "UnitFrames" and then go to "individual Units". near the bottom thers a bunch of options, like genera, aura bars, etc. scroll down till you see portrait.
I believe in general under media, you can change the default fonts there. otherwise most of the options have areas to change the font. which area are you looking to change the font for?
Unfortunately this isn't popping up for me everytime I log onto WoW. I can't /elvui and I put it into the folder that it's supposed to be in. I play Classic TBC. :(
Hey, this was helpful. I've been running the stock config for elv for a while, but I think I'll take the information you shared to customize it a bit. Thanks!
I followed step by step (at 12.21 version atm) and WOW won't give me the pop up when I first log in. I can find the folder in my addon section but it's WOW is acting like it's not there..am I the only one?
you might need to go through 1 by 1 on your addons. id recommend disabling them all, then re-enabling 1 by 1. Also make sure all of your addons are up to date. Its possible too that it might not be addons, but something computer side.
If you do anchors for bars, they will be labeled 1, 2, etc. but you can also do /kb and hover over the button you want to bind, and bind it that way. I actually have a video of how to setup keybinds in elvui ill publish soon if that might help and such
I just downloaded ElvUi again after being away from the game for about 2 years. I remember before when Blizzard would patch it would jack everything up and I would have to reconfigure everything. Could you quickly explain how to back up your profile or does patching not really impact ElvUi as much anymore. I went ahead and exported the text of my current profile and saved it just in case. Any other suggestions? Nice video!
I havent had issues in quite some time from patching. One thing you can do is copy your WTF folder in the wow folders. You can also export your profile so you have it available outside of game or if you move to a new computer and whatnot.

Thanks for the video. How do you suggest where to place weak auras and Dbm to not be in way for mechanics?
Much appreciate video im not that smart so i would have to lookup how to extract but you saved me alot of time love it
Right!
Does ElvUi completely remove the pictures when i click on a target? if not how can i add that back?
You can have them! in Elvui, go to "UnitFrames" and then go to "individual Units". near the bottom thers a bunch of options, like genera, aura bars, etc. scroll down till you see portrait.
@@wakemylight4358 what about when i want the npc to show if its elite or not?
Hey man do you know if there's a way to change the default font?

@@wakemylight4358 thank you!
@@wakemylight4358 figured it out lol
so I just installed elvui and just finished setting it up and I started to DC fairly often. Any suggestions on what is going on?
very bad coincidence downdetector.com/status/world-of-warcraft/ login servers are crashing
@@reinofkaos thank you I saw a wow head article shortly after posting this comment. Thank you tho!
This helped as an old fart gamer. I left console and back to pc. I used to be so proficient lol

Heck ya man! Glad you enjoyed the video! If there is anything I can do to help or you have any questions just let me know!
Why can’t I find the option drop down on the battle net website 😂
when i do /ec command it dosnt even open..
whats the addon that shows your stats on screen
it was a weakaura I used to use. wago.io/NyLsOPQ4z
skip the first minute. video starts at 0:59
I followed step by step (at 12.21 version atm) and WOW won't give me the pop up when I first log in.
I can find the folder in my addon section but it's WOW is acting like it's not there..am I the only one?
Same prob
Mine just crashes at loading screen, do I need to disable or delete any other addons?
you might need to go through 1 by 1 on your addons. id recommend disabling them all, then re-enabling 1 by 1. Also make sure all of your addons are up to date.
Its possible too that it might not be addons, but something computer side.
how do you remove the top and bottom black layer
if it is the thin black bars at the top and bottom: go to general and uncheck "bottom panel" and "top panel"
does anyone counted how many times he said "right"? ^^
how do you know, which player bar is which, while setting keys to specific bar?
If you do anchors for bars, they will be labeled 1, 2, etc. but you can also do /kb and hover over the button you want to bind, and bind it that way.
I actually have a video of how to setup keybinds in elvui ill publish soon if that might help and such
Mine didn’t save as a folder
My folder is already extracted and have the same issue, now with curseforge app it does it for you. Idk whats going on.
I need help with this big time lol. If you have time any evening for a 5 minute discord that would be greatly appreciated
right
idk why but for me doesnt seem to work
How can i change my nameplate/target healt text size??? To small the text... :S
if you go to the unitframes tab, general, at the bottom is Fonts and a "font size" slider. you can change it there.
Hey man, is there an easy way to uninstall it/revert it back to the original interface?
To uninstall go to your "World of Warcraft" folder -> _retail_ -> Interface -> addons
Then you would delete the "ElvUI" and "ElvUI_Options UI" folders
cant see mu elv ui
it wont work
is there a link to your profile?
Not currently, but I will can.
ty so much
glad I could help!
