I must've missed this, I'm sure you already answered:

I find myself not wanting to play any of my other toons because the UI is all jacked up and I can't get it to look like GarUI for my main. If I change anything on an alt in Bartender, for example, I find it's been changed on my main next time I log in. How do I get the beautiful UI to work for all my toons? Will it work for non-Hunters?

Just noticed that even with everything disabled, then Bartender turned on, for an alt, I still get the hotbars in the default Bliz UI look, with the gargoyles at either end, stuck to the bottom of the window. >.<

Best way to config the UI for your other toons is to:

  1. Configure the UI just how you like it on your main.
  2. Copy your main's folder, paste it then rename it to the name of one of your alts. (Directory is: WTF/Account/ACCOUNTNAME/YourServer/)
  3. Log in with your alt.
  4. Type in: /reflux switch GarUI
  5. Make any changes you want, e.g., bartender bars, keybinds, etc… then save the changes as a new profile within the addon.

I have my other toons configured this way and it works flawlessly. For the most part, I keep everything the same apart from the buff/debuff filters and notifications in Raven, as well as a few bartender settings, such as keybinds and stance bars. Once I change something in bartender, I just save that profile in /bt4 with a unique name for my alt – same with Raven.

By copying the dialed-in character folder, you're able to replicate all of the settings – even for addons like Bagnon that don't have profiles.

You'll have to manually delete the Power Auras, but that just takes a sec.

Hopefully this made sense and helps you out with things. icon_smile

P.S. Sorry I haven't been on MG much at all these days. Been so busy I've not been on much period, but I would like to hop on and say hello soon.

Awesomeness, thanks Gar!

Once I get my alts' UIs cleaned up I'll be happily playing a bit more again icon_smile
