Guild Craft shows you what people in the guild can craft. Provided they have the addon or you have "imported" their profession. Use /gcb to show the browser or left click on the launcher provided by your LDB-Display of choice. Options can be found by right clicking the Launcher or using the slash command "/guildcraft"
This addon is not intended to replace searching on wowhead or thottbot to find what you want.
This is intended to show you what people can make once you found what you want.
Features
Main Browser
The Main Browser shows by profession, with the listing off to the left hand side. All Bind on Pick up items are automatically filtered out. The Main area shows you who can craft the item, as well as displays the information about the item. The information displayed is in fact the enchant tooltip ( or Crafting Tooltip as if you had linked the item to someone from the tradeskill window). Also shows if they are online / off line or not in your current guild. You can shift Click the "Refresh" button to rebuild the cache. The Browser is Load on Demand and is a separate addon that comes packaged with Guild Craft. Browser Shows when Left Clicking on the launcher
A note about the search function
The search function also looks at the item's tooltip. For example, searching for "red agi" for jewel crafting will show any gem that fits a red slot that has agi on it. Searching "agi 60" in enchanting will show all enchants that do agi and where introduced in wrath. The search function is a multi-word explicit match method.
Many have requested a filter / search by ItemQuality, this should now be possible though enabling Colorblind mode in the Default UI (Interface->Display). Alternate Implementation is not planned.
Database Care
- Alternate Update
- In the Database Functions section you can pull other people's data from someone else. Put in the player's name that has the data, and type in the player you need. This can be used to get information for people who are off line.
- Purge
- You can select a player to be removed from the database, however if that person is still in your guild they will auto update. This is not a blacklist feature.
- Non-Guild Sharing
- You can push your tradeskill data to someone as well as pull their tradeskill data from them. Found in the Non-Guild Sharing section of the options
- Chat channel Sharing
- This sharing option allows you to join a chat channel and make your data available to others outside your guild automatically. Useful for Guild Alliances such as ones found on RP servers.
- PhP-Exporting
- While This module is under development, it has a basic export feature that uses common phpBB Tags found on guild websites. This allows you to post what the guild can make and who can make it.
Various other options exist such as blacklisting and using a chat channel for sharing data between guild alliances. Database Options can be found by either Right Clicking on the Launcher or via /guildcraft
- Wowace Forum Thread
- LDB Feed for quick access to the browser and options window as well as an extended tooltip showing an overview of what tradeskill data you have and from who.

Bug Reports and Errors
Please Report All bugs on the Curseforge Ticket Tracker. I do watch the tracker, please provide full information on the ticket.
Known Bugs
Immediately following a patch tradeskill data must be regenerated. There is a chance that not all links will work properly and that some will be removed regardless of updating. Try reseting your TradeLink cache via slash command " /resetltldata ". This will wipe all your cached tradeskill data from the SavedVariables and force the addon to regenerate them after the UI is done reloading as this also reloads your UI in the same step. This pulls the data fresh and fast/properly from the client's local cache.
Also after patches it may be needed to purge a player's data out or in some cases reset the entire database. This can be done from the options menu under Datbase section.
Features Not Available
- Filtering Based on Expansion Level.
- Filtering / Searching by Required level plus.
- Filtering / Searching based on anything not found on the crafting tooltip. Includes Level / ItemLevel ranges, Crafting Category.
These features are specifically declined as it would require a pre-built database of what recipes belong where. Also, this addon isn't a replacement for searching WoWHead.

Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support
WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.
