Description

TrinketManagerForever

Keep all your trinket cooldowns in view – TrinketManagerForever shows the trinkets from your list that are ready or almost ready, and lets you swap them in with a single click.


What it does

You choose which trinkets to track. TrinketManagerForever then shows a compact row of icons, one per trinket, depending on the situation:

Situation Icons shown
In combat Your equipped trinkets that are ready or whose cooldown is almost over
Out of combat All listed trinkets you carry (equipped or in your bags) that are ready or almost ready

"Almost ready" means the remaining cooldown is below a threshold you set (30 seconds by default). When a trinket goes on cooldown, its icon disappears. Once the cooldown drops below the threshold, the icon comes back with a countdown.

Clear visual feedback

  • Ready: icon in full color
  • Almost ready: icon greyed out with a cooldown swipe and a countdown in the middle
  • Equipped: marked with a frame in your faction's style, or a glow, or not at all (see below)

The icons are always sorted the same way: equipped trinkets first, then the others by remaining cooldown, so the next ready trinket is always right next to your equipped ones.


Features

Your trinket list

  • Add trinkets by Shift-clicking an item link into the input field, by entering the item ID or the exact name, or by dragging a trinket from your bags onto the list
  • "Add equipped trinkets" adds both of your current trinkets in one click
  • The list shows each trinket's status: Equipped, In bags or Not owned
  • Hints for trinkets without a use effect and for trinkets whose cooldown is not known yet
  • The list is saved per character, so every character only sees their own trinkets
  • Trinkets are stored by item ID, so the list works on any client language

Swap trinkets with one click

Out of combat, click the icon of a trinket in your bags to equip it:

  • Left-click: upper trinket slot
  • Right-click: lower trinket slot

The tooltip shows both hints. In combat the game does not allow equipping items, so clicks do nothing there.

Faction frames

Equipped trinkets get a frame in the style of your choice:

Style Look
My faction (default) Horde or Alliance frame, depending on your character
Horde Red iron frame with rivets and spikes
Alliance Royal blue frame with gold trim
Simple glow Soft green glow, like equipped items on the action bars
No glow No marking at all

Cooldown tracking

  • Cooldowns are read directly from the game, including after /reload and login
  • Every trinket's cooldown duration is learned automatically and shared by all your characters
  • You can also set a cooldown manually for any trinket in the list
  • If the game hides cooldown data during combat, the addon keeps tracking with the known duration. If it doesn't know a cooldown at all, the trinket stays visible, so you never miss a ready trinket

Display

  • Movable: unlock the display, drag it where you want it, lock it again
  • Icon size from 16 to 96 px
  • Grow direction: Right, Left, Down or Up
  • Countdown color of your choice
  • Click-through in combat, so the icons never block your clicks
  • Item tooltip on mouseover, can be turned off
  • Optionally hide everything in rested areas (cities, inns) or out of combat

Options

Open via ESC → Options → AddOns → TrinketManagerForever, or type /tmf.

Good to know

  • TrinketManagerForever never uses a trinket for you. It only shows cooldowns and, out of combat, equips trinkets when you click them.
  • The icons are plain display frames, so showing and hiding them in combat is completely safe.
