Description
📌 What is CopyTargetMount?
CopyTargetMount is a lightweight World of Warcraft addon that lets you summon the same mount as your current target — as long as you own it.
It adds a small, movable action-style button on your screen:
- The icon updates automatically to show the mount your target is currently using
- If you own the mount and can use it, the icon pulses to indicate it’s ready
- If you don’t own the mount, the icon is grayed out
- If no mount is detected, a default mount icon is shown
Perfect for:
- Syncing mounts with friends
- Copying someone’s cool mount (if you have it!)
- Roleplay, screenshots, or just fun

Click the button or use your keybind

If you own the mount and it’s usable, the addon summons it
🧩 Put it on your action bars (Macro)
Blizzard doesn’t allow addons to automatically place buttons into action bars, but you can do the same thing with a macro:

Type /macro
-
Create a new macro
-
Paste this line:

Drag the macro onto your action bar and bind it like any normal ability

⚙️ Requirements & Limitations
- You can only summon mounts you already own.
- Some special forms (druid forms, transformations, shapeshifts) are not treated as mounts by the game API and won’t be copied.
- The addon uses Blizzard’s mount journal API, so anything not registered as a proper mount won’t be detected.
