SearchBar – The ultimate one-box search for everything you can act on in World of Warcraft.
Overview
Press a single key (or type /searchbar) to open a sleek, fast search bar that instantly finds and lets you use spells, bag items, bank items, mounts, battle pets, toys, equipment sets, housing decor, and macros — all in one place.
No more digging through spellbooks, journals, or bags. Just type what you want and go.
Core Features
- Live fuzzy search — Results update instantly as you type. Highly typo-tolerant (e.g. "hearthstoen" still finds Hearthstone) and searches names plus descriptions, macro bodies, mount sources, item types/qualities, etc.
- Rich results:
- Colored item names by quality
- Live cooldown swirls on spells/items/toys
- Bag vs Bank counts displayed
- Category icons
- Smart actions:
- Left-click / Enter → Cast / Use / Summon / Equip
- Right-click → Locate (opens bags + glowing highlight + red arrows on the exact item, or opens the relevant journal)
- Shift-drag (or Ctrl/Alt) → Pick up onto action bars
- Favorites & Recents — Pin frequently used items with Shift+Right-click. When the search is empty, your favorites and recent searches appear for instant access.
- Category filtering — Use #spell, #mount, #toy, #item, #bank, #pet, #set, #decor, #macro (and short forms like #m, #o, #b).
- Combat aware — Results remain usable during combat if armed beforehand. List freezes safely while in combat.
Extra Polish
- Fully supports The War Within / 12.0 (Midnight) including housing decor
- Bank items cached on visit (searchable anywhere)
- Equipment sets, macros (including body text), and pets fully integrated
- Clean, minimal UI with mouse wheel scrolling, Tab navigation, and drag-to-move window
- Options panel to toggle categories and close-on-use behavior
Commands
- /searchbar — Toggle the search
- /searchbar config — Open options
- /searchbar rescan — Force refresh indexes

SearchBar turns "where is that thing again?" into a single keystroke. Fast, powerful, and essential for any serious player.
