Elvui show one buff in another location

Guides UI and Macro
1

Hey guys!

Does anybody know if elvui can be altered to show only one specific buff in another location separate to where all the other buffs are? If so how?

thanks! :smiley: (my googling didn’t help)

Yes and no.

I’ll need a lot more specifics.

Do you mean one of YOUR buffs? Or a party buff? Or a target buff? Or a boss buff? Or a main tank buff? Or a pet buff? Or a main assist buff?

Do you mean related to nameplates or to unit frames or to the actual buff/debuff arrays that default to the top right corner near the mini-map?

There is a lot that’s possible, but it greatly depends on what you mean by “buff” as they can be displayed for virtually any definable unit and can appear on multiple widgets in the UI.

Hallo! thanks for replying.

Yes sorry, it’s a paladin tank self buff, so it appears in the top right corner with the mini map, its such a short lived buff that doesn’t line up with its two stacks of the spell and its cooldown that i need a better way of seeing it.

The buff is called Shield of the Righteous.

Note that I mean when I am playing that character, not another characters self buff.

thanks :smiley:

You’ll want Raven or WeakAuras to do stuff like that.

Yes. That’s one you aren’t going to be able to do much with if you want it up there.

You CAN, if you want, elect to shut off ALL buffs on your NAMEPLATE, however, EXCEPT that one so you’ll see it there, or on your UnitFrame.

Both of those things are eminently doable within just ElvUI.

Awesome then, thanks all! :smiley:
