Addon Profiles  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.1
by: Marihk, merlight
This addon allows you to use profiles to change which addons should currently be enabled.

The original add-on was written by Marihk. Version 2 ended up as a complete rewrite. It doesn't use LibAddonMenu for configuration, but injects itself directly into Add-Ons menu. You can now create as many profiles as you want, and the number of keybinds was increased to eight. If it doesn't work for you, check out Circonian's Addon Selector.

Saved profiles from version 1 will not be transferred. Sorry about that, but it was much simpler for me to start anew.

What is the purpose of this addon?

Two controls are added to the Add-Ons in-game menu: a profile selection drop-down list and a profile menu button. From the profile menu you can create a new profile, or delete an existing one. Profile selection is tied to the currently logged character (you can use any profile for multiple characters, of course). When you select a profile from the drop-down list, add-ons will be enabled/disabled according to their state when that profile was last saved, and you will need to reload UI afterwards. Whenever you enable or disable an add-on, the new setting will be saved to the currently selected profile, and also copied to all characters using that profile.

By using account-wide SavedVariables, your addon profiles will be the same across all characters. So, you might setup profiles combat/questing, and profiles for crafting, and profiles for addons that you're just trying out. You can then easily switch to a new addon profile while in game, without having to remember which specific mods should be turned on or off.

Note: If you modify enabled add-ons from the character selection screen, Addon Profiles won't see those changes until you log the affected characters, and will show red checkbox outlines next to add-ons whose state doesn't match the current profile. You can fix this by toggling such add-ons one by one, or by switching to another profile and back (using menu), or by "switching" to the current profile (using keybind).

Although not exactly user-friendly, colored profile names may be crafted using special markup. A colored name must consist of "|c", a hexadecimal color code, the actual name, and "|r". Say I want to create a profile named Skyshards, written in blue. I'll pick a fine shade of blue (for example here), and enter this magical name: |c2D5BC4Skyshards|r

You can also assign up to 8 keybindings to different profiles (there's Addon Profiles section under the Controls in-game menu). Pressing a bound key will select the assigned profile and immmediately reload UI.

Language Support
German translation included.

I doubt anyone is still using this, since it's had year-old bugs and there's a working alternative. Hopefully I fixed the issue with saved variables and unexpected changes to saved profiles.

I won't be updating this any time soon as my subscription runs out. You can fix this by editting AddonProfiles/AddonProfiles.txt

Change this line:
## SavedVariables: AddonProfiles_SavedVariables AddonProfiles_SavedVariables2

To this:
## SavedVariables: AddonProfiles_SavedVariables2
17 march will be soon

I have planned a few changes to how profiles work, but I won't be updating this add-on this month. My subscription ends in 5 days, I'm not going to spend them fixing bugs, or adding bugs I won't be able to fix afterwards.

I doesn't work for me: strangely, the only profile that works most of time, addons and binded key, is my AvA profile; others don't: they mix AvA addons, keybind doesn't work... although I tried to erase every settings and create new profiles from scratch. Not a very big deal, but sometimes a little annoying when you have short time to change your profile.

2nd edit: holy shali dorable, I've just encountered I have 330 copies of saved vars, that's definitely not right.
I do experimented this weird "forgetfulness"; it's not it enables/disables all add-ons, it seems to jumble profiles together, enabling that add-on I only use in Cyrodiil when I am pretty sure I was playing under my PvE profile; keybidding dont work very fine either.

It's not a very big deal, ( I still thank you for this add-on ), but for now better check our profile before going to some dangerous place.

Note: I only play one single character, so the "issue" is not due to the add-on being account-wide.

Bugs...

I'm still getting errors from things that were working great, like Deome's Shopkeeper version... Do you think that they may have changed more code in the API? Kinda like the GetBagSize() ordeal.


It always says it's an error having to do with multiple names and profiles being the same. I'll get a screenshot next time I log on.

Gonna ask him what he thinks, if he's on tonight...

(EDIT) Shopkeeper working fine now!!

I have now idea now what bugs causing this beautifull addon to fail so massively now. It was working fine before the general redo...now the addon, especially after a update of other add-ons seems to forget the settings for the different profiles very often. Maybe also if you have more then one character....
