Only loadable on demand

A few of my add ons are saying this, unfortunately very important ones (dbm, bigwigs etc) I’ve made sure the dependency is enabled, I’ve even deleted my wtf and interface folders and completely redownloaded all add ons, same story.

It just means the addon will only be loaded when actually needed per LoadAddOn() or ## LoadWith in order to save memory/cpu resources, so it’s nothing to worry about

I assumed that at first, but they never load when in dungeons or raids as they’re supposed to either.

This happened to Bagnon when I came back from a d/c in Gnomer…Figured out a workaround…

  1. Quit the game.
  2. Make sure you have the latest version of your addon.
  3. Relaunch and get into the game.
  4. Hit ESC and click AddOns
    …you’ll probably still see the “Only loadable on demand” message in the addon ui.
  5. Disable all the modules of the addon(s) in question and then RELOAD THE UI.
  6. Bring back the AddOns window and ENABLE all of the modules of the addon(s) in question and the RELOAD THE UI.

Voila…worked for me. Hope it works for you. B
