BadbUI

Support

BadbUI is free

World of Warcraft add-ons must be distributed free of charge under Blizzard's add-on policy — so BadbUI is free, in full. There is no paid version, no premium unlock and no feature behind a donation. Every module, macro, guide and update on the download page is available to everyone.

Report a bug

The fastest way to get a bug fixed is a report the maintainer can act on. BadbUI builds most of it for you, in game:

  1. Reproduce the problem, then type /badb doctor run — BadbUI checks module state and known conflicts and prints a summary.
  2. Type /badb doctor report and copy the text it shows. The report contains add-on and client versions, module states and recent errors — it is scrubbed of personal data.
  3. Recent Lua errors only: /badb doctor errors lists what BadbUI captured, with occurrence counts.
  4. Open an issue on the project's GitHub repository (Issues tab) and paste the report, plus: what you did, what you expected, what happened instead, and your BadbUI version (/badb shows it).
Before reporting: update to the latest release on the download page, disable other interface add-ons once to check for a conflict, and try /reload. If the error only happens with another add-on enabled, name that add-on in the issue — BadbUI's Suite page lists which add-ons its modules replace, and running both at once is the most common source of conflicts.

Get help in game first

In-game

/badb

One panel for every module. Search any setting, check the Suite page for exactly which installed add-ons each module replaces, and read the offline manual and guides — they work with no connection at all.

Setup

/badb setup

The guided wizard re-applies a per-class/role preset and walks through bags, auction, combat, encounters, world, quests, loot and QoL. Safe to re-run: your profiles live in WTF and are not erased.

Diagnostics

/badb doctor

/badb doctor run for checks, /badb doctor report for a copyable report, /badb doctor errors for captured Lua errors. Attach the report to any GitHub issue.

Say thanks (voluntary)

If BadbUI saves you time and you want to say thanks, you can send a voluntary tip below. Tips are a thank-you, not a purchase: they unlock nothing, change nothing in game, and are never required for support, updates or features.

Tip · Fiat

Revolut

Any amount, in your own currency, via Revolut:

Site owner: replace this link before publishing. REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_HANDLE is a placeholder — swap in the public Revolut handle so the link reads https://revolut.me/<handle>. Never publish a Revolut password or login link; a public revolut.me receive link is enough.
Tip · Crypto

Cryptocurrency

Send only to the address below, on the exact network shown:

  • Token — REPLACE_WITH_TOKEN
  • Network — REPLACE_WITH_NETWORK
  • Address — REPLACE_WITH_PUBLIC_WALLET_ADDRESS
Check the network twice. Sending on the wrong network can lose the funds permanently, and a tip sent to a wrong or replaced address cannot be recovered or refunded. Site owner: replace the three placeholders with the token, its network and a public receive address before publishing — and never publish a seed phrase, private key or exchange API key anywhere on this site; only a public address.
Other ways to help, no money involved: report bugs with a /badb doctor report attached, tell your guild, and share which modules replaced which add-ons for you. That feedback is what decides what gets built next.

Questions

Is BadbUI really free? Yes — completely. Blizzard's policy requires WoW add-ons to be free of charge, so there is no paid tier and nothing is held back. Tips on this page are voluntary thank-yous only.
Does tipping unlock anything? No. No feature, module, macro, guide or update is tied to a tip, and support does not depend on one either.
Where do I report a bug? In game run /badb doctor report, copy the text, and open an issue on the project's GitHub repository with the report and your steps to reproduce. See Report a bug above.
An update broke my layout. Now what? Your settings live in WTF and survive updates. Re-run /badb setup to re-apply a preset, or restore a configuration backup from inside BadbUI. If the companion installed the update, the previous add-on folder is kept in Interface/.badbui-update-backup.
Does BadbUI work without the companion and BadbUI_Guild? Yes. Both are optional: BadbUI_Guild only adds guild calendar/roster sync for guilds that use it, and the companion only syncs guild data and installs updates you confirm with /badb update. Manual ZIP updates work fine.
