DeKaTeK's Taggy Tag
Stop marking by hand. Just fight.
Taggy Tag is a small bar with all 8 target marks. Switch TAG ON and every time you press one of your normal ability keys, the addon puts the next mark on a mob that is fighting your group, in kill order:
Skull → Cross → Square → Moon → Triangle → Diamond → Circle → Star
Made for WoW Forever. Works solo, in a party and in a raid.
What it does
Automatic marking with TAG ON While TAG is on, your ability keys still cast your spells as normal, and each press also marks one new mob that is attacking your group. Mobs that join the fight later get the next free mark. Idle mobs that are not fighting are left alone.
Marks never jump A mark that is already on a living mob is never moved to another one. A mark only comes back into use when its mob dies (or you press Clear).
Choose how many mobs get marks The number on the bar (1 to 8) sets how many mobs are marked. Set it to 3 and only Skull, Cross and Square are used. Left-click for one more, right-click for one less. Works in a fight too.
Clear button Removes all marks. The next mobs get marked again from Skull, also in the middle of a fight.
Order button Posts the kill order to group chat once, so everyone knows what to kill first.
Mark by hand too Left-click a mark on the bar to put it on your target. Right-click to remove it.
One tagger per group When several people in the group use Taggy Tag, the addons agree on one tagger so marks are not fought over (tank first, then leader, then assistant, then the others). The bar shows who the tagger is. Press Skip (>>) to hand tagging to the next person, press it again to take it back.
Three looks Classic gold frame (default), pet bar style, or a modern flat look. Change it with the "Look" button in the options or with
/taggy skin.
How to use
- Install the addon and restart the game (a new addon needs a full restart, not just /reload).
- The bar appears on screen. Drag it where you want it.
- Click TAG so it says TAG ON (green).
- Fight as usual. Your ability keys mark the mobs one by one.
- Click TAG again to turn it OFF (red) and get your keys back to normal.
The addon also picks a free key to switch TAG on and off. Type /taggy key to see it or change it.

Good to know
- Every mark comes from your own key press. The game does not allow marking without one, so Taggy Tag never marks on its own, it only rides along with the keys you already press. No botting, nothing against the rules.
- In a raid you must be leader or assistant to set marks (a game rule). In a party and solo, anyone can mark.
- There are only 8 marks in the game, so one fight can mark at most 8 mobs. Press Clear to start again.
- The game allows only a few marks in a very short time, so the addon sets one new mark per key press.
- During a fight the game hides some mob information from addons, so some checks are kept simple on purpose. A missed mark can happen; a mark moved from a living mob should not.
Feedback
Found a bug or have an idea? Leave a comment here. If marking does not work, type /taggy debug in a fight and post what it shows. That helps a lot.
