Wowhead item links

Grilldyret · March 27, 2008, 11:52:11 AM

So, I have been thinking for a while about this thing as I run the profession forums.. Allakhazam seems to update with new items slowly, which results in grey item links. Take my 2.4 update, for instance. Wowhead has had the items for weeks and weeks afaik.

Now, I checked out the wowhead site, and it seems they have an item link code just like allakhazam. It doesn't look as nice, as the item names are not written in bold, but it's a much quicker update, and it has the same feature with image-on-hover and such. Only real change is that you will be redirected to the wowhead page if you click the link now.

Do you have access to the site script, dell? If so, you can add this: <script src="http://www.wowhead.com/widgets/power.js"></script> anywhere in the script. (considering it is actually wanted)

Here's the wowhead page concerning this: http://wowhead.com/?powered

You also got the new page; www.wowdb.com, driven by curse if Im not mistaking, good site, dunno if you can use it the way you use allakhazam or wowhead on the pages tho.

I'm more than happy to add the JS file to the header of the site, if you really prefer the Wowhead links.

If you think it'll help people more... then np :)

Well, it's really not that big a deal, only thing is that the item links will start working 2-3 or more weeks after the items have been added, usually.

Not sure how much it will HELP, but it'll look nicer without the grey links! :)

Oki, well, it doesn't automatically change the text when you link it, so it's going to be pretty painful...

You have to make the link, and the item name. Not quite as easy as [wowitem] imo.

If you want to use wowhead though, tell me and I will set up some classes so you can do colours and stuff with class="blah" in the links.

Ah, you can't use standard HREFs...

Atiesh, another test

Nah, seems you can't use styles with BB code. I'll see if I can enable <a>... not sure if that's a wise idea though :)

Okay, there you go Grilly.

[ wowitem] now just does Wowhead links instead of Allakhazam.

Life is wonderful.

I will look for a Youtube addon, Cwave...

To anyone watching this thread: just request a feature if you think the forum should have it. It's fairly easy to add new stuff, and if it's useful/cool... I'll add it!
