How to link an item without having it in your inventory.

I received a tip yesterday from Marcaa it's about how to set up a macro that makes a link and this is how you do it [Marcaa] whispers: make macro with

/run SendChatMessage("WTS "..(select(2,GetItemInfo(XXXXX))),"channel",nil,2)

but replace XXXXX with item number this way you say WTS the item number you have put in becomes a link to that item.

To find the item number you can go to wowhead or thottbot. This way you can set up a WTB or WTS macro which you can use several times with out having to link all the items and do all the manual work.

  1. I personally use the addon Ludwig, it's an ingame item database where you can easily look up every item in the game and you can also link from it.
