v. 3.2 - 2009/08/04
- Updated TOC to indicate compatibility with WoW Patch 3.2.
- Fixes an error message which could appear when sending chat messages.

v. 3.1 - 2009/04/18
- Updated TOC to indicate compatibility with WoW Patch 3.1.
- Linkerator now avoids performing CPU-intensive link searches on text sent to chat by macros or other addons if the text in brackets is only a number (e.g. `Hateful Strike --> Grunkk [23423]`). To "linkify" by item ID number in a macro, use the format `[item:43593]` or `[#43593]`.
- We also no longer attempt to "linkify" text sent to custom chat channels (such as the hidden channels used by some other addons).
- Fixed an issue where Linkerator would sometimes fail to avoid "linkifying" text in certain chat commands (e.g. `/script`) as intended.

v. 3.0.1 - 2008/10/22
- Fixes an error when attempting to type links in chat.

v. 3.0 - 2008/10/14
- Updated for compatibility with WoW Patch 3.0 and Wrath of the Lich King.
- It's now possible to retrieve item links given a known item ID (using `/link <number>`) even if the item is not in your client's local cache. Items unknown by the server will return no results.
- Includes preliminary support for spell links -- they're now returned in `/link` search results but not for as-you-type linking. More spell, talent, quest, and achievement link features will follow in future releases.

I miss this add on so much and all the other "Linkerator" wanna be add ons suck. They use up way too much memory and don't even link most items like Linkerator did. I hope this gets updated soon! Miss this add on! __________________ Highlord Darion Mograine: "We will see it through, to the bitter end."

-Raz- A Kobold Labourer   Forum posts: 0 File comments: 44 Uploads: 0	Originally posted by grunt45 Anyone looking for a substitute should check this: LootLink. well, having used lootlink years ago before switching to linkerator i can say one thing, lootlink uses alot more addon memory then linkerator does since it builds its own database and doesnt only read from the itemcache with that said, i miss being able to link stuff so i guess i have to suffer and switch

AnrDaemon A Black Drake Forum posts: 86 File comments: 2130 Uploads: 6	30 seconds? Lucky you. Just pasting already complete [Titanium Bar] locks up the client for 5-7 min. Glad I have patched it for combat block, so it does not happen in the middle of a fight.

grunt45 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	As of patch 4.0.1, when typing a link name in the editbox (starting with a [), the client freezes for about 30 seconds for each letter typed, rending the addon useless, is there a way to fix this?

Sacredox A Defias Bandit   Forum posts: 2 File comments: 2 Uploads: 1	Full addon I got sick of trying to manually fix this every time it got overwritten so I uploaded a full addon with the patch applied into the Optional Files section. I tested it and it works. Thanks for this useful addon.

Anubys A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	I've downloaded the optional file and replaced the .lua with it as harl described and I still get an error and I am unable to use linkerator. is there something I may have missed?

harl A Defias Bandit   Forum posts: 2 File comments: 40 Uploads: 2	diff patch I've added a patched Linkerator.lua to the Optional Files section, so people won't have to manually go through with this themselves. Simply download and replace. For an overview of the changes made, see Hirsute's latest post to this thread.

Shadowcall A Cyclonian   Forum posts: 40 File comments: 56 Uploads: 1	Originally posted by Livanamako Hirsute posted a patchfile as code, that much is clear, however he didn't tell what program he used for making the diff nor did it specify the format. It does look like the unified format and a normal gnu patch should do. You can use notepad++ and modify the file by hand. I did that but now i get a new error. It seems that there is an conflict with another, though linkerator works fine.
