Other FAQ's
How Do I copy my mod settings from my master to my slave?
Settings are not saved in the ADDON folder. The addon folder only stores the actual mod with the default information it needs to work. Addons store information specific to your settings in the WTF folder. However, copying the entire WTF folder will also copy the \ACCOUNT NAME\Saved Variables and \ACCOUNT NAME\SERVER NAME\TOON NAME\Saved Variables paths, thus not putting the files in a folder that the slave accounts will access, since they will have different ACCOUNT NAME and TOON NAME.
Within the WTF Folder, there are 2 places where addon settings will save. Some use both locations to save different things.
World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\ACCOUNT NAME\SavedVariables
and
World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\ACCOUNT NAME\SERVER NAME\TOON NAME\SavedVariables
Simply copy the LUA file for whatever mods from the master account to the same place in the slave accounts, using the appropriate ACCOUNT NAME and TOON NAME for the slave, of course.
Make sure it's the LUA, not the BAK. It should say LUA under "Type" or when you right-click > Properties, not LUA.BAK.
So, I have to manually switch to my slaves to deal with things like ore, herbs and gathering quests?
Nope. Interact with Mouseover can be used to deal with all those things that Interact with Target can't do, like gathering herbs, ore, ground-spawns, or interacting with things like mailboxes, wanted posters and command boards.
