FuBar: Information Bar and Plugins in WoW Classic
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruFuBar is an information bar for WoW Classic built on the Ace engine, similar to Titan Panel. It sits at the top or bottom of the screen and hosts plugins: gold, coordinates, clock, durability, XP, reputation. On the WowX5 x5 server it's a handy dashboard.
What FuBar does
- Top/bottom bar — all the data you need in one line.
- Plugins — FuBar_LocationFu (coords), MoneyFu (gold), DurabilityFu, ClockFu, ExperienceFu.
- Flexible layout — move plugins left/right and to the edges.
- Click a plugin — opens details or the map.
- Ace compatibility — works with other vanilla Ace2 addons.
A minimal useful set: MoneyFu, LocationFu and DurabilityFu. Coordinates help with leveling guides, and durability tells you when to repair before a raid.
Installing FuBar

Make sure the addon is listed and checked, then log in.

LocationFu shows coordinates — handy with leveling guides that give point-by-point routes. MoneyFu counts your income per session so you can track farming profit on the accelerated x5.
Compatibility and combos
The addon works well with:
Don't run FuBar and Titan Panel at once — two bars duplicate features and eat the screen edge. Pick one.

Bar is empty: Only the FuBar core is installed — add the FuBar_* plugins you want.
Error on login: Missing Ace2/Tablet libraries — reinstall FuBar with the full Libs set.
