Created this when I wasn't sure on the best place to gather a specific herb.
This simple addon will let you know where you can go to gather materials for crafting. Will save you having to go find the item onlinebefore heading off to gather some.
Works in bags, auction house and crafting windows.
Classic:
- Herbs
- Ores & Bars
- Leather
- Cloth
- Enchanting
- Elemental items
All expansions:
- Herbs
- Ores & Bars
- Leather

Works for all language packs. However additional text will be in English.
Really like the addon, so I am sending a correction...
Wintersbite cannot be found in Badlands, but is found in Alterac Mountains next to the snow line.
Keep up the great work...

Thanks, just submitted an update to sort it! Item had it's name changed in Cataclysm and had info from that for it.
Great addon. :)
Arcanite Bar is not smelted by miners, it's transmuted by alchemists.

Could you add a "Buyable from vendor" for mats that can be purchased from a vendor without limit?
For Classic:
Khadgar's Whisker Is listed as gathered in Both Plaguelands and Feralas. Stranglethorn Vale has the highest number of known gather points, and there are no known gather points in either Plaguelands.

Sungrass is listed as being gathered in Eastern Plaguelands, Thousand Needles, and Badlands. There are no known gather points in Thousand needles or Badlands, and Eastern Plaguelands is one of the worst places to gather it. Feralas and Azshara have many more possible locations.

I noticed these issues right after installing this addon, so there might be other inaccuracies. The links provided should give some direction on improving the accuracy of this great idea for an addon.

Thanks for pointing that out! I have just updated all the herbs that were still using regular WoW locations.

Looking good now, thanks for the fast update.
over its too general to be of much help.
Miners don't make Arcanite bars, Alchs have to transmute it
Please show more screenshots. Kinds looks like my cable on screen menu show descriptions. Just saying could have more info. I will give this addon a try though, any info will help a ton especially for fish! Hey, does this work for fish?

can you add, if possible, support for other language versions? For example, show us item info in the tooltip, even if it's still in English... or let the community translate your add-on

Hello!
It seems to me that this addon works only with the English version of the game... Because it does not show anything for me (ruRU in my case).
Is it possible to add support for other lanuage versions? For example, show us item info in the tooltip, even if it is still in English...

Think I might have solved this. Can you remember if you were hovering over an item or just talking to them?
