In WoW, how can I (via native features or add-ons) toggle between multiple spell bar configurations?
I've set up (with BarTender4 and Elvui) a PVP action bar configuration like this, with the macros and spells configured the best way for my preferences, where I can cast 32 spells using the 1-12 number keys on my mouse with the addition of ctrl or alt, like so:
I love this, I want to keep it this way. But some of these spells are not good for raids, some could be removed, some added. The macros behind most of the spells (hence the duplicates here, some of the macros triggering the spells behave in different ways) are perfect for PVP but not for raids.
It would be awesome if there was a feature or an add-on that would let me toggle between different configurations depending on what Im about to do, like pressing a hotkey or button switches to a different set of spell / macros on the spell bars. Can this be done?

There's already a built-in solution in WoW, but it works only for one action bar (primary), so I'm not sure it actually helps you since you have used more than 12 buttons.
Shift + Mouse wheel up/down while hovering the cursor over the action bar will toggle it. However, it uses the space of other action bars and does not generate new bars out of thin air, so if you already used up your space this won't work properly.

Paging changes the action bar so that it switches the bar number depending on the current situation. You specify which page to use using a set of macro conditionals.
