Recipe Registry

Recipe Registry turns your guild into a proper crafting network for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary realms.

Instead of asking in chat who can craft an item, who has the right specialization, or who is online right now, you get a clean in-game directory that keeps up with your guild over time.

Recipe Registry scans your own professions locally, syncs profession knowledge with guildmates who use the addon, and builds a searchable registry of recipes, crafters, materials, skill ranks, and supported TBC profession specializations.

It is built to be useful every day, not just impressive on paper: fast to browse, easy to understand, and gentle enough to run quietly in the background.

Why Players Install It

Find the right crafter in seconds instead of asking in guild chat over and over
See who is online now and who can help later when they log back in
Keep profession data organized by character and profession, not buried in chat history
Surface supported profession specializations where they actually matter
Give your guild a shared long-term memory for crafting without turning gameplay into menu work

What You Get

A real guild crafting directory

Builds a shared guild database from real profession data
Keeps recipes grouped by character and profession for cleaner browsing
Preserves visibility for both online and offline crafters
Uses progressive background sync instead of trying to flood everyone at once
Lets replica peers help fill in offline guildmate data over time

Better recipe discovery

Fast searchable recipe browser with profession tabs
Favorites per character
Rarity-aware crafted item presentation
Detailed recipe view with output info, crafter list, and materials
Online crafters shown first when you need a craft right away

Crafter context that actually helps

Tracks profession skill ranks alongside recipe ownership
Tracks supported TBC profession specializations including Alchemy, Blacksmithing, Tailoring, Leatherworking, and Engineering specializations
Shows specialization in relevant crafter and recipe views when available
Helps you identify not just who can craft something, but who has the right version of that profession

Cost and material visibility

Material cost estimates in the recipe detail panel
Unit and total reagent price display
Overall recipe cost summary when price data is available
Clean fallback behavior when pricing sources are missing

Tooltip and chat quality-of-life

Adds known crafters to supported item, recipe, and spell or enchant tooltips
Makes guild crafting knowledge visible directly from normal gameplay
Supports easy recipe sharing and quick crafter contact flows

Safe long-term guild data

Protects complete local data from suspicious partial profession scans
Hides stale ex-guild data from normal browsing before pruning it later
Uses safety checks to avoid destructive cleanup when roster data looks incomplete
Keeps sync work paced and chunked to reduce noise and avoid bursty behavior in larger guilds

Built For TBC Guild Life

Recipe Registry is especially nice in guilds where:

multiple players cover the same profession with different specializations
crafting requests happen often enough that chat becomes repetitive
people play on different schedules and many useful crafters are offline when needed
you want a practical replacement for "does anyone know who can make this?"

Optional Integrations

AtlasLoot

AtlasLoot improves local recipe resolution, especially for spell-based or enchant-style recipes, crafted outputs, and reagent metadata. Recipe Registry works without it, but some recipe detail will be less rich.

TradeSkillMaster and Auctionator

If market addons are available, Recipe Registry can estimate reagent and craft costs. TradeSkillMaster is checked first, with Auctionator used as a fallback.

Compatibility

Built for WoW TBC Anniversary / The Burning Crusade Classic 2.5.x
Works perfectly well as a standalone guild recipe addon
Optional addons enhance pricing and recipe detail, but are not required for core sync and browsing

Installation

CurseForge App

Install Recipe Registry through CurseForge, then launch the game.

Manual install

Download the release zip.
Extract it into Interface/AddOns/.
Make sure the folder name is RecipeRegistry.
Restart the game or reload the interface.

Getting Started

Join a guild.
Open each of your profession windows at least once so your local data can be scanned.
Open the addon window from the minimap button or the addon's normal in-game entry point.
Give the guild sync a little time to exchange profession blocks with other users.
Browse recipes, mark favorites, and refresh old roster data whenever needed through the addon's cleanup flow.

Notes

Item names and icons may appear gradually the first time WoW populates its local cache.
Cost estimates depend on the quality and freshness of your available market data.
The addon is intentionally conservative around incomplete profession data so that temporary API weirdness does not destroy a good local database.
