CraftLink
A profession and recipe sharing addon for WoW Classic: The Burning Crusade (TBC Anniversary).
CraftLink lets players share professions, browse recipes, and find crafters quickly without trade chat spam, screenshots, or fake claims.
Recipes are shared directly addon-to-addon using WoW API data, making them reliable and verifiable.
Why CraftLink
Crafting coordination in Classic often means:
- asking trade chat repeatedly
- screenshots of profession windows
- trusting players who claim they can craft something
CraftLink solves this by allowing players and guilds to browse real recipe data instantly.
- Verified recipe data – Recipes come directly from the WoW API.
- Find crafters faster – Quickly see who in your guild can craft something.
- Cleaner trade chat messages – Share selected crafts instead of long text lists.
