Description
ForeverPlus brings customizable warnings, interface options and everyday conveniences to WoW Forever. Disable individual modules or use a tab's switch to turn off its entire page. Open the settings from the minimap button or with /fplus. The window includes search, explanations on hover and named profiles you can share across characters.
In your language
The settings window, tooltips and onscreen messages are available in English, German, French, Russian and Spanish. The language follows your game client unless you choose another at the bottom of the settings window.

Features
| Module | What it does |
|---|---|
| Auto Accept Quests | Accepts quests automatically, including from gossip windows, at most once per quest in each conversation. Skips gray quests by default; you can also skip green quests or accept all quest difficulties. |
| Auto Turn In Quests | Turns in completed quests at most once per quest in each conversation. If you must choose between rewards, it leaves the window open for you. |
| Quest Reward Value | Shows each quest reward's vendor value in the corner of its button, including when accepting or turning in a quest. Never chooses a reward for you. |
| Track Zones in the Quest Log | Adds a checkbox beside each zone's collapse button. Click an unchecked box to track the remaining quests, up to the tracker limit. Click a checked box to untrack them all. Works with collapsed zones too. |
| Auto Buy | Automatically restocks selected reagents, poison ingredients and ammunition at merchants who sell them. Uses your target quantities for reagents and poisons, and fills your quiver or ammo pouch for ammunition. Shows a purchase dialog by default. The module starts disabled. |
| Ammunition | For Hunters: adds a button for each kind of arrow or bullet a merchant sells. Click to fill your quiver or ammo pouch, with a dialog showing the quantity and cost by default. |
| Reagents | Adds buttons beside reagent and poison vendors to restock your class reagents or buy ingredients for the highest rank of each poison you can make. You set the target quantities. |
| Bulk Buy | Lets you buy multiple stacks from a merchant in one go. Shift click an item to choose the quantity and see the cost and purchase limit. |
| Sell Gray Items | Sells gray items at merchants and reports your earnings. Sells in batches, then checks your bags and retries items that remain. |
| Auto Repair | Repairs your gear at merchants who offer repairs. If you cannot afford it, tries again when your money changes while the merchant is open. |
| Fast Auto Loot | Speeds up looting while respecting your auto loot setting and modifier key. Can also roll Greed on uncommon items; automatic rolls are off by default. |
| Skip Gossip | Skips a service dialog only when the service is its only option, the addon recognizes it and no quest is associated with it. Leaves other choices to you. |
| Interruptions | Can decline duels and release your spirit after you die in a battleground. Both actions are off by default. |
| Error Filter | Hides repetitive red error messages. Off by default. Once enabled, can hide all errors or selected categories, such as "Not enough mana / rage / energy", "Ability is not ready yet" or "Out of range / too far away". Leaves quest progress and other information messages visible. |
| Buffs | Shows warning icons on bars you choose for missing buffs, buffs about to expire and buffs with a higher rank available. Group buff icons can show how many nearby players need the buff. Also watches gathering tracking and Camp Benefits. |
| Consumables | Warns when selected elixirs, flasks, food, weapon oils or stones are missing or about to expire, on bars you choose. The default warning time is three minutes. Nothing is selected by default. |
| Tooltip | Customizes unit tooltip information, layout and health bar texture, shows players' average item level, adds vendor values to item tooltips, shows how many of an item each of your characters has, and shows the skill needed to gather herbs, mine veins or skin corpses. |
| Info bar | Brings together your location, time, Hearthstone, gold, bag space, ammunition, currencies, durability, experience per hour, time to the next level, latency, frame rate, volume, character cooldowns and a search across your characters' items. Can also destroy the gray stack with the lowest total vendor value. Choose its displays, order, appearance and click actions. See below for details. |
| Free Bag Slots | Shows free and total slots on your bag buttons. The backpack count combines ordinary bags; each special bag shows its own count. Also keeps the backpack icon at full size after a bag search. |
| Ammunition Warning | For Hunters: shows your arrow or bullet count on the quiver or ammo pouch, or on the backpack if you have neither. Below your chosen threshold (500 by default), the count turns red and a brief message and optional sound warn you. Alerts reset once you restock to at least the threshold. |
| Durability Warning | Shows a brief message and optional sound when an equipped item reaches your chosen durability or lower (20 percent by default). Alerts reset once your equipment is repaired above that amount, and you are reminded after a login or reload while an item is still low. The module starts disabled. |
| Movable Bag Windows | With combined bags enabled, hold Shift and drag the window's title bar to move it. The reagent bag switches sides to stay onscreen. |
| Experience Bar Text | Keeps the experience bar text visible instead of showing it only on hover. |
| Alts in the Mail Window | Adds a button beside the recipient field listing your characters of the same ruleset and faction, with class colors and levels. Select a character to fill in the recipient, or use the red X to remove an old character from the list. |
| Hide Interface Elements | Keep the bag bar, micro menu and selected minimap elements visible, hide them, or show them only on hover. Everything starts visible. Hidden elements do not intercept clicks, and Edit Mode shows them all. |
| Minimap Button | Opens the settings window. Drag it around the minimap or disable it on the Gameplay page. ForeverPlus is also available in the game's addon menu beside the minimap. |
| Chat | Customize names, race and class icons, channel labels, timestamps, window layout and search. Includes SD or HD race portraits, sounds for whispers and raid warnings, web addresses you can copy and chat history across sessions. |
Pause automation with Shift
Auto Accept Quests, Auto Turn In Quests, Sell Gray Items, Auto Repair, Skip Gossip and Interruptions each offer "Hold Shift to pause". With it enabled, hold Shift before an action would occur to leave it to you. You can read quest text, keep a completed quest for later or skip a sale without disabling the module. Auto Buy and automatic Greed rolls do not use this pause; fast looting follows the game's auto loot setting and modifier key.
Everything you buy at a merchant
Buttons beside the merchant window let you restock class reagents at reagent vendors, buy poison ingredients at poison vendors, and fill a Hunter's quiver or ammo pouch wherever ammunition is sold. By default, a dialog shows the quantity and cost before you buy.
Set your target quantities. Each reagent and poison rank has its own target, starting at a full stack or a smaller amount for lower ranks of poisons and Rebirth. Change it on the Gameplay page or use the arrow beside its merchant button. Poison buttons buy ingredients for the poisons you still need to make.
Relevant ranks first. Druids see reagents for the highest ranks of Rebirth and Gift of the Wild they have learned. Priests see candles for learned spells, and Rogues see their highest learned poison ranks. Other entries remain under "Not Relevant Right Now" in the settings.
Auto Buy starts disabled. Enable it and select the items you want to restock automatically. Selections are saved per character. A dialog lists the purchases when you open a suitable merchant, unless you disable the dialog. For poisons, Auto Buy accounts for both finished poisons and ingredients in your bags. Reagent purchases still require confirmation while Reagent Economy removes the need for those reagents.
Bulk Buy lets you buy multiple stacks in one go. Shift click a merchant's item to enter a quantity or adjust it with the buttons. The window shows the cost and your purchase limit, based on gold, bag space and the merchant's stock. Larger amounts are reduced to that limit. "Full Stack" buys one stack immediately; "Max" asks for confirmation before buying the maximum. Items bought with other currencies or items keep the game's window.
Bars you arrange
Start with three bars: General Warnings, Combat Buffs and Consumables. Open "Manage bars" to create and name bars, choose their icon size and growth direction, show or hide countdowns, and set the look of missing icons. Deleting a bar moves its entries to General Warnings, which cannot be deleted.
Choose a bar for each buff or consumable. Click an entry's name to choose its bar and, where applicable, set a custom warning time.
Move every bar at once. "Move bars" at the bottom of the settings window shows draggable previews of all bars, including empty ones and the info bar. At the screen edge, warning bars wrap into a new row or column while keeping their icon size.
Buffs that are missing, not just running out
ForeverPlus warns about selected buffs when they are missing, about to expire or below the highest rank you know.
Choose from a curated spell list covering all nine classes. Each buff has its own switch, so you can turn off Thorns without losing other warnings. Hover over an entry for the game's spell tooltip.
- Missing. The icon has a red border and a dash in place of a countdown. Choose gray, original colors, dimmed, alert red or your color scheme's accent for the icon.
- Running out. The icon shows the remaining time when countdowns are enabled.
- A higher rank is available. For example, Frost Armor is active but you have learned Ice Armor. Comparisons stay within the same buff family, so Ice Armor never triggers a warning to switch to Mage Armor.
Group buff icons can show a count of players within your chosen distance who need the buff. Class restrictions are respected: Warriors do not count as missing Arcane Intellect.
Lightning Shield and Water Shield charges are tracked during combat so you can see when a shield needs refreshing. Water Shield also estimates charges spent by critical spells from matching mana gains and critical hit or heal events.
Shaman imbues, Rogue poisons, Firestone and Spellstone are checked on your weapons. Off hand shields, fishing poles and weapons you cannot enchant yet do not trigger weapon warnings.
Camp Benefits is off by default. Enable it to watch the campfire buff itself, or select up to three bonuses in its details to watch those individually. A bonus counts as covered when you have a class buff that replaces it, such as Blessing of Wisdom for mana regeneration.
Default warnings appear 10 seconds before buffs lasting under 10 minutes expire, 3 minutes before buffs lasting 10 to under 30 minutes expire, and 5 minutes before longer buffs expire. You can change these timings or set a custom time for an individual buff with a duration. Buff warnings stay hidden while you are dead.
Gathering tracking reminders
Select the gathering tracking abilities you want to keep active. An icon reminds you when none of the selected abilities is active, including after a death clears your tracking. It disappears when you reactivate one.
Only learned abilities are checked, so a character without Mining or Herbalism is never reminded of Find Minerals or Find Herbs.
Find Minerals and Find Herbs share one reminder because only one can be active at a time. Find Treasure is tracked separately because it can run alongside them.
Gathering reminders stay hidden during combat and while you are dead.
A tooltip you arrange
Choose which unit details to show: level, class, race, faction, guild, guild rank and current target. Player tooltips can also show average item level.
Three layouts. "Compact", the default, pairs level with class, race with faction, and guild with guild rank. "One per line" gives each entry its own line. "Blizzlike" keeps the game's lines in their original order and adds extra information below them.
Guild rank and current target. See a player's guild rank beside their guild name, and who they have targeted. The target reads "you" when they are targeting you.
Average item level. See the average item level of a player's equipped items, including your own. For other players, the addon requests updates on hover when inspection is available outside combat. A value already known from this session appears immediately and stays until a new result arrives.
Choose a corner. Pin the tooltip to the top left, top right or bottom left, or keep the game's default position. It grows inward from the selected corner.
Health bar texture. Choose Flat or Soft gradient for the bar below unit tooltips, with a preview in the settings, or keep the game's own.
Item tooltips can show the vendor value of one item and the entire stack.
Gathering skill requirements. Hover over an herb, ore vein or skinnable corpse to see the required skill level in the game's skill color. Includes herbs and veins added to WoW Forever's starting zones.
Find any item across your characters
Item counts in tooltips. An item's tooltip shows how many each of your characters on the same realm, ruleset and faction has: the name on the left, the count on the right, followed by where the items are, in the bags, the bank or the mail. With two or more characters, a total appears above them.
Search all of them. Click the magnifying glass on the info bar to search your characters' items by name or item ID, including items the character you are playing does not have. Below the results, the window names characters whose bags, bank or mailbox have not been recorded yet.
How it is recorded. A character's bags are recorded when it logs in, its bank and its mail when it opens them, so log in with each character once. Items in letters with cash on delivery count only once paid. Switch the counts off, or leave out where the items are, on the Tooltip page under "Items Across Characters". The magnifying glass has its own switch on the Info bar page.
A chat you arrange
Choose how names appear: full names, first initial and surname, first name, surname or initials. Hover over a shortened name to see it in full, with class and guild details when available. Optional race and class icons appear before player names.
Customize channel labels. Show numbered channels as [1], [2] and so on, or set your own labels for channels and group chats. Each label follows its channel when you reorder channels.
Quote a message with a Shift click. When enabled, hold Shift and click a timestamp to copy the line, including its time and sender, into the chat input without sending it.
Copy web addresses. Addresses starting with http://, https:// or www. appear in square brackets. Left click one to open a small window with the address selected, then press Ctrl+C. This also works in saved chat and search results. You can switch it off under Copy and Search.
Search and history. Search the chat to display matching lines again, keep chat history across sessions for each character, and use Up and Down in the input line to recall sent messages.
Sounds for whispers and raid warnings. Choose a separate sound for each from a list of the game's sounds.
Arrange the chat window. Place the input line below the window, between the window and its tabs, or above the tabs. Let the main window reach the left edge of the screen while its buttons are hidden, or the bottom edge with the input line in either upper position. Adjust tab background opacity without dimming the tab names. Move the search bar or keep it visible, and choose HD or SD race portraits.
Fading that waits for you. Faded lines return while you hover over the chat window or its tabs, or while the input line is active. Afterward, they stay for the time set under "Fade after". This behavior is on by default when chat fading is enabled. The background and tabs can also fade with the last line and return at your chosen opacity.
Text size, line spacing, outline, message fading, buttons and tabs are configured on the Chat page. Disable the page to return to the game's own chat.
A row of numbers always in view
The info bar starts at the top of the screen and can be moved wherever you prefer. Choose displays for your Hearthstone destination and cooldown, gold, durability, coordinates, latency and frame rate. Click the Hearthstone to use it. Use "Move bars" to reposition the row, or enable "Move it with Shift and drag" to move it by holding Shift and dragging a display.
Merchant's Favor and Honor Points are off by default. Each displays your current character's balance and shows its limit on hover. With "Status colors" enabled, a currency turns red at its limit.
Free bag slots are also off by default. Show one combined display with a breakdown by bag type on hover, or a separate display for each type. Choose free slots alone or free slots out of the total. Tooltips show both.
Ammunition is off by default. On any class with a bow, gun or crossbow equipped, it shows how many compatible arrows or bullets you carry. It disappears when none of these weapons is equipped. Count all compatible ammunition, or only that of the type selected in your ammo slot. With "Status colors" and "Warn when it runs low" enabled, the count turns red below the shared Ammunition Warning threshold. You can set the warning and its threshold on the Info bar page.
Destroy Cheapest Gray Item is off by default. Its icon offers the gray stack with the lowest total vendor value, including stacks worth nothing. Hover to see the item, stack size and value. Shift click to destroy the displayed stack and free a bag slot. Confirmation is on by default; you can disable it and also allow clicks without Shift. Items with an unknown price, quest items and locked items are excluded. Nothing is destroyed in combat or while your cursor holds something.
Character cooldowns share one icon. Hover over it for recorded Dedicated Study and long profession cooldowns, such as Mooncloth and transmutes. Each entry shows the time remaining or that it is ready. Records update as you play each character, removing abilities they no longer have.
Item search is a magnifying glass, last on the bar, that opens the search across your characters' items. It is on by default and appears while the item counts on the Tooltip page are on.
Experience per hour and time to the next level are off by default. They count from your login, level ups included, and a /reload does not interrupt them. Click either one to restart the measurement. Hover over either for your progress in this level, your rested experience, what this session has brought, the rate and the time left. Neither appears at the maximum level.
Addon CPU usage. Hover over frame rate for the current CPU usage of all addons together and of the five busiest, in percent, as the game's own addon list counts it.
Clock, zone and volume. Enable these optional displays to show the time, your zone and subzone, and the game's master volume. Choose local or realm time and a 12 or 24 hour format on the Info bar page; these settings also apply to the minimap clock. With "Status colors" enabled, zone names use the minimap's colors. Hover over volume to adjust it with a slider. The speaker icon is crossed out when all sound is off or the displayed master volume is 0 percent.
In your own order. With "Allow reordering" switched on, drag the entries on the Info bar page into the order you want, and the bar follows.
Choose what clicks do. Click coordinates for the world map, the clock for the stopwatch, or hold Shift and click the clock for the calendar. Click volume to toggle all sound without losing your volume setting. You can also enable a click on frame rate to offer an interface reload outside combat. Each action has its own switch.
Customize the appearance. Choose the font, text size and text color, plus separate colors and opacity for the background and border. "Status colors" highlights conditions such as high latency, damaged gear and capped currencies. Show all icons, hide all icons or choose individual icons. Lists and tooltips keep the addon's look.
Choose whose gold counts. Include all recorded characters, those of the current ruleset, those of the current ruleset and faction, or only your current character. Hover over gold for each character's balance and your current character's gains or losses this session. Counted characters appear first, richest first. Others appear below in gray, also richest first, unless "Hide characters not counted" is enabled. You can remove old characters from the list.
Check damaged gear. Hover over durability for the repair cost and each damaged item's slot and condition, worst first, using the game's durability colors.
Profiles
Named profiles let characters share a setup or use different ones. Each character remembers its assigned profile. Account and character data, such as chat history, recorded gold, recorded items and Auto Buy item selections, are kept separately and are not included in profile exports.
Profiles can be created, copied, renamed, reset and deleted. Switching profiles takes effect immediately, unless you are in combat; in that case, the change is applied when combat ends.
Export a profile as a single string to share it or keep a backup. Importing creates a new profile without replacing existing ones; switching to it is a separate step. Damaged or incomplete strings are rejected.
Made to be read
- Explanations on hover describe what each option does.
- Search and expand controls help you find settings and open or close all sections at once.
- Unavailable options are grayed out and explain which setting disables them.
- Switches on feature tabs disable a whole page without opening it. Disabled pages are faded and locked against accidental changes, with their settings preserved.
- Eleven color schemes show their main colors in the list, from the game's gold and black to darker styles inspired by familiar messaging apps. Some also change text colors.
- Class colors, background opacity and text size update as you change them. Settings text scales relative to the client's fonts, so headings keep their proportions and supported character sets remain readable.
