Action bar planner
Start from a ready-made layout, drag in spells and macros, and bind your bars on wowdee.com. Check your plan, then paste one code into the add-on to preview, apply and undo the changes.
wowdee.com/action-bars, then More → Action bars (or /wowdee bars) in the Wowdee add-on.
Build your layout
Pick your class and level, then start from a ready-made layout or your own bars. Drag in spells, items and ready-made macros, choose ranks and bind your action, stance and pet bars.
Check, save and share
See what each macro does, link your talent build and fix gaps in your layout. Save your work in this browser, copy a link for a friend or download a picture of your bars.
Apply it in the game
Copy your code, then open More → Action bars in the add-on (or type /wowdee bars and press Enter). Choose Import a layout and paste into its code field. Review the changes, choose macros, bars and keys, then Apply out of combat. Undo restores eligible bars, readable keys and edited Character macros that still match the import; new Character macros and all General macros stay as they are.
Questions
Does importing change my bars without asking?
No. Pasting a code only shows a preview. Nothing changes until you press Apply, and you choose whether macros, bars and keys are included.
What about spells I haven’t learned yet?
The preview lists them with the level you learn them, and their slots stay as they are. Turn on fill-in (it’s off by default) and Wowdee places each one when you learn it, out of combat, only into the slot you planned and only if that slot is empty or holds a lower rank of the same spell.
Will macros work in my game language?
Yes. The code stores each spell by its game ID, and the add-on writes your macros with your game’s own spell names. If a translated name makes a macro too long for the game, that one macro is skipped and the preview says why.
Will it delete my macros or keys?
The import creates macros or updates a matching name; duplicate names are skipped. A planned key moves to its button only when its current binding can be read. Unlisted slots stay as they are unless you choose to clear them. Undo restores bars, readable keys and edited Character macros that still match the import, and lists anything it cannot restore. New Character macros and all General macros stay unchanged to preserve later uses; remove unwanted macros manually in the game’s macro window.
Can I use someone else’s layout?
Yes. Open their share link or paste their code into the planner to inspect and edit it. Sharing a link includes the layout, macros and keys; your saved layouts stay in your own browser.
Can I update the ranks on my current bars?
Yes. Open My bars in the add-on and choose Upgrade ranks. It shows how many buttons can use a higher learned rank before you apply the change, and you can undo it.
Does it work in combat?
No. The game doesn’t let add-ons change bars, macros or keys during a fight, so Apply and Undo work out of combat.
