Recipe Registry

Turn your guild professions into a searchable crafting network for World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary realms.

Recipe Registry answers the question every guild eventually asks: "Who can make this?"

Open your professions, let the addon scan what you know, and Recipe Registry quietly builds a shared in-game directory with your guildmates. Recipes, crafters, materials, profession ranks, specializations, favorites, online status, and optional price estimates all live in one clean window instead of scattered across guild chat.

It is designed for everyday guild life: fast to browse, calm in the background, and useful even when the best crafter is offline right now.

Why Players Install It

Find the right crafter without repeating the same question in guild chat
See who is online now and who can help later when they log back in
Check which guildmates your client has recently seen using Recipe Registry, without guessing uninstall status
Search recipes by name or by materials, depending on how you think
Keep favorites per character for the crafts you ask about most often
Spot important TBC specializations such as Transmute Master, Armorsmith, Spellfire Tailor, Dragonscale Leatherworker, and more
Estimate material costs when TradeSkillMaster or Auctionator data is available
Give your guild a long-term crafting memory that updates quietly over time

Feature Highlights

Guild Crafting Directory

Builds a shared recipe registry from real profession data
Tracks recipes by character, profession, rank, and specialization
Shows online crafters first while keeping offline crafters available for later
Keeps guild data useful across reloads, relogs, and addon updates
Works best when multiple guildmates install it, but remains useful as your own personal profession browser

Fast Recipe Browser

Profession filters for quick browsing
Favorites filter for your most-used crafts
Search by recipe name or by required materials
Sort recipes alphabetically or by item rarity
Category navigation with subcategory rows for fast drill-down into each profession
Expansion prefilters that hide Vanilla recipes by default and can be reopened globally or per profession
Smooth scrolling and searching, even with large guild recipe lists

Craft Requests And Sharing

Use the Ask button to whisper a crafter directly from the recipe view
Share the selected recipe to guild, party, raid, or say
See known crafters directly on supported item, recipe, spell, and enchant tooltips
Keep online and offline crafter lists readable instead of hunting through chat history

Materials And Costs

View crafted output, reagents, known crafters, and total materials in one place
See reagent unit prices and total recipe cost when market data is available
Uses TradeSkillMaster first, with Auctionator as a fallback
Handles missing prices gracefully so the recipe view still stays useful

Quiet Background Sync

Shares guild recipe data automatically with compatible guildmates
Adds a Guild Addons table that cross-checks the live guild roster with locally observed Recipe Registry peers, with sortable/filterable headers for presence, version, and addon visibility
Paces larger updates so the addon stays responsive
Waits for safer moments around login, reloads, combat, instances, and roster loading
Keeps normal chat output quiet, with extra diagnostics available only when you need troubleshooting

Built For TBC Guild Life

Recipe Registry is especially helpful when:

Your guild has several crafters covering the same profession
Specializations matter and the "right" crafter is not always obvious
Players are online at different times
Officers or raid leaders often need to find enchants, resist gear, consumables, or crafted upgrades quickly
You want a practical answer to "who can make this?" without maintaining a spreadsheet

Getting Started

Install Recipe Registry.
Join a guild.
Open each of your profession windows at least once so your recipes can be scanned.
Ask guildmates to install the addon too for automatic guild sharing.
Open Recipe Registry from the minimap button or with /rr.
Search, browse, favorite recipes, and contact crafters directly from the addon.

The first sync may take a little time, especially in a larger guild. After that, Recipe Registry keeps itself updated quietly while you play.

Useful Commands

/rr opens the main Recipe Registry window
/rr options opens the settings panel
/rr rescan queues a fresh profession scan
/rr adoption or /rr addonstatus prints a guild addon status summary
/rr share guild shares the selected recipe in guild chat
/rr share party, /rr share raid, /rr share say, and /rr share reply share the selected recipe to other available channels
/rr prices <item name or item link> checks available market pricing data

Most players only need /rr. The rest is there when you want more control.

Optional Integrations

TradeSkillMaster And Auctionator

If TradeSkillMaster or Auctionator is installed, Recipe Registry can show material prices and estimated craft costs. Pricing depends on the freshness of your market data.

Compatibility

Built for WoW TBC Anniversary / The Burning Crusade Classic 2.5.x
Core browsing and guild sync work without optional addons
Recipe details and category navigation come from a built-in static metadata library and no longer require AtlasLoot
TradeSkillMaster or Auctionator can be added for material pricing
Important for 2.0.0: guild sync uses a new model that is not compatible with Recipe Registry 1.x sync. Your own saved recipes remain safe, but guildmates should update to 2.0.0 or newer to share data with you.

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.

Notes

Item names and icons may appear gradually the first time WoW fills its local item cache.
Cost estimates depend on TradeSkillMaster or Auctionator data and may not always be available.
The addon is intentionally careful with incomplete profession and roster data so a temporary game API hiccup does not erase useful guild information.
