Updating

Your settings are saved in the game's WTF folder (WTF\Account\<account>\SavedVariables\EldoUI.lua), not in the addon folders, so updating never loses them.

Coming from 0.6? Updating from 0.6 shows what carries over, which layouts were renamed or became legacy layouts, and where things moved.

From a release zip

  1. Close the game.
  2. Delete the old EldoUI, EldoUI_LootData, EldoUI_GuideData, EldoUI_LootSim, EldoUI_Emoji, and EldoUI_Locale_daDK folders in Interface\AddOns. (Unzipping over them works too, but deleting first makes sure no removed file stays behind.)
  3. Unzip the new EldoUI-<version>.zip into Interface\AddOns.
  4. Start the game. /eui whatsnew shows what changed.

Releases are listed on the GitHub releases page, and the changelog lists what changed in each version.

After an update

  • Before an update changes your settings or your journal, EldoUI keeps a copy. One chat line tells you what changed, and /eui data opens the Saved data page, where Restore puts a copy back.
  • If a change needs a reload, EldoUI shows a banner with a Reload button.
  • If a frame sits in a strange place after an update, /eui resetlayout puts every frame back to its layout position.
