CurrencyInfo

A World of Warcraft addon that shows the currencies you care about in a small movable frame, with formatting you control.

Features

• Track any currency and show it with an icon, a label and a format of your choice
• Pick currencies from a searchable list instead of looking up IDs
• Presets such as Current / Max, Weekly Progress and Percentage, or write your own template
• Cap handling per currency: change the text color or hide the currency once it is capped
• Per-currency text color
• +150 / -20 gain and loss text when a value changes
• Column or row layout, left or right alignment, font, sizes, spacing, scale and background opacity
• Hide in combat, hide while the Currency tab is open, or fade when the mouse is away
• Drag to reorder, drag to move the frame, lock it in place
• Opens from the frame, /ci, the Addon Compartment button, or Esc > Options > AddOns

Installation

Copy the CurrencyInfo folder into World of Warcraft/_retail_/Interface/AddOns/ and restart the game or /reload.

LibSharedMedia-3.0 is optional. If another addon loads it, its fonts appear in the font dropdown.

Getting started

1. Right-click the frame, or type /ci, to open settings.
2. Click Browse list... and click the currencies you want. You can also type an ID and press Add, or click Add all capped to start with every currency that has a maximum.
3. Adjust the format, label and look in the settings window.

Dragging the frame moves it. Right-clicking it opens settings. The gear in its corner does the same.

Settings

Tracked currencies

Each row has:

Column	What it does
Grip	Drag to reorder
No label	Hide the label and show only the values
Label	Replace the currency name with your own text
Format	Choose a preset or Custom
Template	Your own template, active when the format is Custom
Preview	What the display will show
Icon	Show or hide the icon
Gear	Text color and cap behaviour (see below)

Templates

Use these tokens in a custom template. The box turns red if it contains one that does not exist.

Token	Value
{label}	Custom label or currency name
{current}	Current quantity
{max}	Maximum quantity
{earned}	Total earned
{left}	Left to earn (max - earned)
{weekly}	Earned this week
{weeklycap}	Weekly cap
{pct}	Current / max as a percentage

Example: {label}: {current} ({weekly}/{weeklycap} this week)

Cap behaviour

Open a row's gear button to choose what happens when a currency is capped:

• Do nothing
• Change color: the text switches to the cap color (green by default, so a capped currency does not look like an error)
• Hide currency: the currency disappears once capped

Capped at sets the percentage that counts as capped, from 50% to 100%. Progress is the highest of current / max (or total earned / max for seasonal caps) and weekly earned / weekly cap.

Display settings

Layout, alignment, font, font size, icon size, spacing, scale, background opacity and padding, plus toggles for background, lock position, show display, gain/loss text, hide in combat, hide on Currency tab and fade when not hovered. Reset to defaults restores layout, visibility rules and the accent color. It keeps your tracked currencies and the frame position.

The accent color of the settings window can be changed with the swatch in its header.

Slash commands

Command	Action
/ci	Open settings
/ci browse	Open the currency list
/ci add <id, name or link>	Track a currency
/ci remove <id, name or link>	Stop tracking a currency
/ci list	List tracked currencies
/ci show, hide, toggle	Show or hide the display

Notes

• The currency list only includes currencies your character has discovered. Use the ID box for any others.
• Settings are saved account-wide in the CurrencyInfoDB saved variable.
