Ara Broker Tradeskills   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
This data broker plugin provides easy access to tradeskills & tracked CDs (now stable, thanks to beta testers ).

Supported languages: english, french, german (partial), chinese, korean.

The first time you use this addon, you will have to scan for existing CDs, or craft them. Then, CD tracking will be automatic.


New in r25: Open a character tradeskill panel and the tradeskill list link will be saved. You will then be able to access and link it from your other characters.


Block interactions:
- Click to open the last selected tradeskill.
- Right-click to access the config menu.


The list has up to 4 categories: tradeskills, combat skills (no interactions), cooldowns and shortcuts. The ingame hints show how you can interact on each entry. Here is a list:


Tradeskill interactions:
- Click to open the tradeskill panel.
- Shift+Click to link in chat.
- Right-click to scan for CDs.
- Middle-click to hide it from the list.

Cooldown interactions:
- Click to craft; if it's cooling down, it opens the tradeskill panel and scroll to the CD instead.
- Right-click to open the tradeskill window and scroll to the CD.
- Control+click to set or remove an alias.
- Middle-click to remove (only remove ready CD, unless you set the option to bypass this protection).

Shortcuts interactions:
- Click to craft.
- Right-Click to open the associated panel and scroll to it.
- Control+Click to set or remove an alias.
- Middle-Click to remove.


Config menu:
- Filter tradeskills (2 filtering levels).
- Filter combat skills (2 filtering levels).
- Include ready CDs when scanning: by default, when you scan a profession, it only adds cooling down CDs.
- Force CD removal: per default, you can only remove ready CDs. Check this option to bypass the protection.
- Show/Hide hints.
- Show/Hide alts skills.
- Show only primary skills in the alt. tooltip.
- Remove alts data.
- Display the number of ready CD (instead of the last selected tradeskill).
- Edit signaletic colors (see below).


I went overboard with colors ._. and you can edit 7 different ones (it will probably change later, there's too many):
- Headers
- Name of interactive skills (with panel)
- Name of informative skills (without panel)
- CDs belonging to the current player
- CDs belonging to an alt.
- Last selected skill
- Highlight

Tradeskill signaletic:
- Orange entry is the last selected tradeskill.
- Yellow/gold entries have a panel and can be clicked.
- Darker yellow/gold only provide informations (no panel).

Cooldown signaletic:
- Yellow/gold entries are CDs owned by the current character.
- Darker yellow entries are CDs owned by other characters.


If you have AddonLoader, the loading of this addon will be delayed.
If you have Skinner, this plugin will be automatically skinned.

- Removed version checking that was necessary pre 3.0.8 to get the correct cooldown durations for titan-steel transmute and alchemy research.

Here is a version with ProfessionsBook support: http://perso.orange.fr/aranarth/wow/...skills-r26.zip

Note that you can access the professions of your alts from this plugin, so ProfessionsBook is a bit redundant.

Revelation is especially handy as I can just alt click on the frozen orb that I've usually just bought and I can create my Icy Prism (JC). However if I do it this way, the CD isn't picked up and I have to manually rescan. I did some brief testing and it was consistant when using tailoring and smelting cooldowns; if I use revelation to make the item, the CD is missed. If I open it in producer or click the cd via the ldb menu, it's tracked just fine.

Sounds interesting, I can see my leveling characters looking regularly for interesting crafts on alts. But first I need to check if it's doable, not to mention it would probably take time to implement if it is.

Cheers for that, worked like a charm. As for the inconvenience, there wasn't any so no need to apologise. I would much rather a little issue like this than no addon at all. Your time an effort on this (and other addons) is much appreciated.

Sorry about that, the tooltip should be anchored below the main one, but that's probably an issue with tooltip addons that I overlooked. And no there's nothing to turn it off right now. When I get some time I will look for a way to incorporate this line into the main tooltip. Meanwhile you will need to edit the lua file and search for "g:Show()", there's 2, comment the second one (around line 860). And sorry for the inconvenience.

The best would be to get a broker display and find broker counterparts to your fubar plugins (as FuBar2Broker isn't satifying either).
Joys; well - it does seem that most of the FuBar plugins are starting to suffer bitrot as quite a few don't seem to be maintained any more.

This not working is as good a reason as any to look around for alternatives - thanks for looking at this.
