You need to configure IWT (Interact With Target).
And you need CTM (Click to Move) to be enabled.
You can find CTM in: Escape > Interface Options > Mouse Options > Check the box.
You can toggle CTM, via a macro:
(On) /console AutoInteract 1
(Off) /console AutoInteract 0
IWT is a Keybind: Escape > Keybinds > Targeting Functions
If CTM is enabled, and you push your IWT key, your toons will turn towards the target and move towards where the target was when you pushed the keybind.
You'll want to quickly give a movement key, such as W or S to break the movement.
If your software supports steps...
You could set it up like this:
Step 1: Assist the main character
Step 1: IWT Keybind sent to characters
Step 2: Movement key to break follow
If you're using IS Boxer, refine it a little.
Add... Execute a Step on Press or Release.
Add... Hold Keystrokes while Hotkey is Held.
That gets you...
Press (and Hold) Assist + IWT/CTM.
Release Break the IWT movement.
Any class that does not have a melee spec (your Shamans can be Enhance so they do) currently have a bug (or maybe new method of working that is not a bug), which prevents them from interacting (moving towards) a hostile character when they IWT.
If this is the case, instead of sending the IWT keybind to their windows, send a keybind for a macro/button.
And have a http://www.wowhead.com/item=41367 on that keybind or in that macro.
In wotlk there was quest item intended to work on specifics mob only who allow to face target.
I wonder if that still work.
This way to face target, i used the item, and i use interact with target with click to move to regroup my toons if they are too far away (fear ...)
I think you are missing one exclamation mark. No worries, most rookies do it too.
Yeah you have to be alot closer now for IWT and click-to-move to work.
I think they are trying to stop people in PvP from telling which direction players are, by stopping it if you are too far away.
Thanks so much for you help Ualaa, I think I still have much to learn~~
I made a list of Quest items you can use to face your target in Cata:

I have not tested them in MoP, so they may have been fixed. I will update the list later or something.
Why does CTM need to be enabled in the example above?
Iv'e never enabled it and by just using my IWT it has worked thus far. I'm just wondering if I'm missing an import step/ setting here.
The default IWT Mapped Key (Interact with Target in the General Key Map) created by the Quick Setup Wizard in ISBoxer turns CTM on (via the ISBoxer addon) when you press the Hotkey and turns CTM off again when you release the Hotkey.Quote:

Thanx
The wizard generates an IWT key.
This enables CTM, sends your IWT keybind and then disables CTM.
One press, but two states... Press and Release, with a Step on each of those.
When you push the key on its own, this works fine.
However, when you call your IWT (on one step) of another mapped key, it can fail.
Because the wizard IWT needs two steps, and the other mapped key is trying to do IWT on the one step.
You could insert CTM On, in the mapped key.
Or edit the wizard generated key, in such a way that it never disables CTM.
Or go with your own CTM/IWT approach.

Either works.
