BazUI
If your World of Warcraft interface looks like a patchwork of a dozen unrelated addons, BazUI offers a different path. This all-in-one interface suite brings action bars, unit frames, bags, chat, nameplates, auras, the minimap, and notifications together under one coordinated look and a single settings panel. Instead of juggling separate configuration windows, you get one place to shape nearly everything you see on screen.
What BazUI Replaces
The addon covers the core elements most players end up customizing anyway:
- Action bars with up to 24 x 24 buttons each, independent of Blizzard's built-in slots
- Unit frames for you, your target, pet, and party, including party pets
- Bags with searchable categories, custom rules, and vendor selling tools
- Chat tabs with persistent history and a dedicated timestamp column
- Nameplates, tooltips, and a movable micro menu
- A notification center for loot, quests, reputation, mail, and more
- Sliding drawers that hold your minimap, quest tracker, and everyday tools
Because these modules share colors, borders, textures, and fonts, the result feels like one interface rather than a collection of strangers. You can start from the included Classic or Modern layout and adjust from there.
Action Bars and Edit Mode
Building bars is refreshingly direct. Drag an ability from your spellbook onto open screen space and a new bar appears there. Drop it beside an existing bar and it joins that bar, with a preview showing exactly where the button will land. Hover over a button and press a key to bind it. New characters can have their bars populated automatically, and newly learned spells can slide into empty slots.
BazUI's Edit Mode lets you create, move, resize, and configure elements while looking at them. Snap frames together to build connected layouts: health and power above a bar, a cast bar underneath, buffs docked nearby. Connected elements move as a group, and supported bars can inherit the width or height of their host. Grid snapping and precise nudging handle alignment, while holding Alt lets you move freely. Profiles can be saved per character, class, or specialization and shared through export and import.
Bags, Drawers, and the Codex
The bag module pulls your inventory into one searchable window. Group items by category or by individual bag, use the built-in categories, or write your own rules based on item name, type, equipment slot, quality, and item level. Drag-and-drop categorization speeds up sorting, and a vendor button sells gray items. When your bags fill up, BazUI highlights the lowest-value sellable gray stack to help you decide what to toss.
Drawers keep clutter off your screen. Place your minimap, quest tracker, addon buttons, and tools in a sliding column on either side, then switch between multiple drawers using their tabs. Widgets can be reordered, collapsed, pinned, or detached into floating windows. The Codex rounds things out with an overview of quests nearing completion, saved instances, reset timers, collection summaries, and a searchable item list with a Wishlist feature.
Game Version Support and Compatibility
BazUI for World of Warcraft supports Retail along with the Classic progression clients, including Classic Era, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, and Mists of Pandaria. Feature availability varies by client, so some modules behave differently depending on which version you launch. The addon also plays well with others: Masque support adds extra button styles, LibSharedMedia supplies additional bar textures, LibDataBroker feeds can appear as drawer widgets, and supported Zygor notifications can route into the BazUI notification center.
If you would rather skip manual file management, the foxygame.net launcher installs BazUI in a single click and keeps it updated automatically, so your interface stays current even after major patches. It is a convenient option for players who run several WoW versions side by side.
How to Install BazUI
To download BazUI, grab the addon from your preferred addon source and place the extracted folder inside your World of Warcraft Interface/AddOns directory. Restart the game or reload your UI, then type /baz to open the settings, pick a profile, and enable the modules you want. Open BazUI Edit Mode from the game menu to arrange your layout. Handy shortcuts include /bb for action bar settings, /bbg to toggle bags, /bc for chat, /bwd for drawers, /bnc for the notification center, and /codex for the Codex. An included User Manual explains each module right inside the settings window.
Final Thoughts
BazUI succeeds by treating your interface as one connected system rather than a pile of separate parts. Whether you play Retail or a Classic-era client, the combination of flexible action bars, organized bags, a controlled notification center, and a genuinely useful Edit Mode makes it a strong choice for players who want a clean, cohesive screen without installing a dozen addons. Start with a ready-made layout, then shape every detail until the interface finally feels like yours.
