ElvUI DataText Bars 2

ElvUI DataText Bars 2

#1 by Cytoph

Hi everybody,

I'm currently using ElvUI for WoW Classic and I want to use it with another favorite addon of mine: ElvUI DataText Bars 2.
It seems to be a pretty simple addon but I just can't get it to work with WoW Classic, when I just copy the addon data from retail.
An explicit version for Classic is not available and using /console scriptErrors 1 to get LUA error that could've been thrown by the addon does not show any results.
Anyone got this working with WoW classic or am I out of luck?

Would love to see this working in Classic too.

It was already posted here just within another thread so it was't easy to find.
Here is the link to the post where one can download a version of ElvUI DataText Bars 2 that works absolutely perfectly with WoW Classic:

It let's you create datatext bars, like the ones under the chat panels that you can place anywhere. You can then add whatever information is available in these. Here's a link to the retail version that has screenshots. https://www.tukui.org/addons.php?id=46

Maybe Darth_Predator can take a look into the Retail AddOn and he just need to replace

Code: Select all

DB:RegisterEvent("UNIT_ENTERING_VEHICLE", "OnEvent")
DB:RegisterEvent("UNIT_EXITING_VEHICLE", "OnEvent")

with

Code: Select all

if select(4,GetBuildInfo()) >= 20000 then
	DB:RegisterEvent("UNIT_ENTERING_VEHICLE", "OnEvent")
	DB:RegisterEvent("UNIT_EXITING_VEHICLE", "OnEvent")
end

figured out also need to relace

Code: Select all

local inVehicle = (event == "UNIT_ENTERING_VEHICLE" and true) or (event == "UNIT_EXITING_VEHICLE" and false) or UnitInVehicle("player")

in function

Code: Select all

function DB:OnEvent(event, unit)

with

Code: Select all

local inVehicle
if select(4,GetBuildInfo()) >= 20000 then inVehicle = (event == "UNIT_ENTERING_VEHICLE" and true) or (event == "UNIT_EXITING_VEHICLE" and false) or UnitInVehicle("player") end

this way the AddOn works with both Retail and Classic!

greetings

Please see this thread viewtopic.php?f=32&t=6807&p=28743#p28151

I always recommend backing up your WTF folder - where your profiles/settings for all addons, including ElvUI are stored.
