I got a buff group showing all selfcasted buffs and blacklist filter for some of them. And I'd like to have a few selected buffs that are NOT selfcasted in the same buff group. When I select one of those buffs in whitelist filter, this buff grop doesn't show any buffs at all. Im not sure if it's this a bug or I'm doing something wrong..
well, one the one hand, you're doing it wrong since using the whitelist will block all other auras not matching it, on the other hand it's also not possible since you still have the selfcast filter in effect blocking all auras not cast by you. You'll have to use two groups.
I was wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to somehow hide your buff frame unless you mouse over it. Personally I love the look and feel of this mod over all of the other buff bar mods I've seen out there, but the one thing I would love for it to have is to hide unless mouse over. Anyone have a solution for that?
Not sure if this should be as a ticket or not, but I cannot seem to get EBB installed. I have installed through both Curse and manually and it never appears in addon list and when I use /ebb config i get "type /help for list of commands..." have tried with other addons and with all other addons removed. Short of reinstalling wow i think i have tried everything. I'm sure i'm just missing something subtle, but i have no idea what it is.
Having the same problem with satrina's buff frames if that helps any.

Make sure its properly placed within the addons folder (and make sure its not in an extra folder)
I would like to know how EBB is managing the filters :
Does each group filter each buffs/debuffs ?
If it is the case, the more groups you have, the slower the addon is (and it is relatively memory-consuming on my computer).
Another solution is to have one filter that assigns buffs and debuffs to groups.
It seems better for me (but I don't know a lot about coding wow addon) because for every buff/debuff gained/lost, only one filter parsed it and, most of the time, only one group has to be updated because you don't want to display buffs twice or more.
Thanks in advance for every answer, sorry for any english mistakes (I'm french).
as of beta, i was able to use elkano's and it worked with one exception. it threw back thousands of the same error regarding the tracking texture. other than that it was still fully functional
Try Raven...As far as I know, it is THE only working full-featured buff bar addon for 4.x.
"Full-featured" is an understatement. Its not really a direct replacement for EBB, Simple Buff Bars (what I replaced EBB with long ago, but is also now dead in WoW 4.x) or any other simple replacement for the Blizzard buff/debuff frame.
Raven adds all sorts of things: spell cooldown tracking, target debuff tracking, missing buff alerts and on and on. Fine if you need them, not so fine if you are using other mods to handle them.
So still missing a basic buff/debuff bar Blizzard replacement like EBB or SimpleBB. Bison was recently resurrected unexpectedly after 2 years for 4.x, but it replaces the Blizzard frame with buttons, not bars. Shadowed appears to be retired from mod development for 4.x, so no updates to SimpleBB. Here's hoping Elkano is still around and interested in updating.
I think as long as I'll be playing I'll try to somehow keep EBB running, even if it's just for me :) Sorry for not having an update ready on patch day but guild relocation, Minecraft, HoN and my general laziness have eaten most of my time :/

Apparently you have a right to live a bit :-).
I hacked my version to remove the Minimap error with this little function:
local function GetTrackingTexture()
local name, texture, active;
local count = GetNumTrackingTypes();
for id=1, count do
name, texture, active = GetTrackingInfo(id);
if active then return texture, name end
end
return "Interface\\Minimap\\Tracking\None", 'None'
end
I'm sure you can guess where and how I used it. I also commented out the OnEnter tooltip for the tracking buff. That works for me.
The real problem that I believe will be a bitch to fix is the CancelUnitBuff that is now protected.
Of course, that doesn't make the options menu works but using Ace3 Config for this is strait-forward although quite a bit tedious to do.
Thanks a lot for this mod Elk.

Just ask one of the LDB wizzes to write a ldb plugin for EBB.
first of all thanks for this great addon.

Keep up the good work, this addon is great !
Elkano is still around and theres still some time left so i wouldn't give up hope just yet.
But can agree id hate to loose EBB in the patch
Do love this addon to bits, use it for so many things :)
