    Default Sharing mod profiles between wow instances

    As the title mentions, I'm looking to be able to share WoW mods and their profiles between my multibox instances.

    I'm looking to use some action bar mods.. but really only want to have to set it up once, and then have it so my slaves would use the same layouts, which obviously not only saves time but helps with mouse repeating.

    So far I've just installed the mods as per usual, and can create profiles with my main, but only that account can see them to use them. I know there's virtual folders created for the slaves, but instead of messing around with a setup that is currently working, I figure I would ask in here first.

    Thanks,

    Create the UI with your main, then copy your WTF/Account/<AccountName>/Server/MainToon Folder to WTF/Account/<AccountName>/Server/SlaveToon

    Some addons will want the WTF/Account/<AccountName>/Saved Variables Folder as well

    Note that certain mods store their settings on a per-character basis and, as such, will not pick up settings automatically with this method (TC_MailMod, Omen, etc.). Most of those mods, however, can then import profiles from whatever character you set up initially as those settings will now be available after copying the saved variables files.
    Now playing: WoW (Garona)
