Well, to start off, I've just bought my second WoW account to try out Dual Boxing (tried it with the trial, liked it more than the usual playstyle), and I like to do UI's.

I've made a UI on my main account, and I want to copy it to the second account, but when I copy the WTF folder of my character, it puts some things inthe proper places but certain addons like Pitbull and Dominos are messed up. I tried to go to "Profiles" and switch but my main character's profile is not available to switch to.

I'm at a loss for what to do.

(PS, I only have one WOW Folder, I've seen some people suggesting that you have 2 WOW Folders, but I hate copying big folders)

Saved variables for mods are written and read from a directory within WTF matching that characters name, you need to copy the source characters directory and rename it to match the new target character

Ex:

WTF/Earthen Ring/Varmon

copied to

WTF/Earthen Ring/Yarmon

I've done this, however it still doesn't seem to work.

I've copied the characters folder to my second account's specified Realm's folder, renamed it and it still won't work.

(Sorry for Double Post)

I've figured it out, all I needed to do was copy the SavedVariables from the WTF of the Characters, and now my UI looks the same as my other guys. It wasn't copying properly.
