WoW Classic: GetSpellLink broken?
I've done a bunch of testing and GetSpellLink seems to always just return the name of the spell, not a link at all.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this a known/acknowledged issue? |
It's intentional, iirc vanilla did not have spell links
|
Then why even include the function? Interestingly, Blizzard addons use GetSpellLink. So just a lazy conversion from Retail?
GameTooltip:SetHyperLink(spell_link) *does* work, you just need to format the spell link yourself. |
Hey that could be a fun idea with chat addons to parse messages for any plain text spell links, to still make it show as a link and show to tooltip

May I ask, what are you intending to do with GetSpellLink and SpellID?

I could take a look at it for my addon. In my testing, the chat link from a spell in the spellbook in Classic only puts the name, no tooltip link.

Edit: A small look at what it could take to add a spell chatlink like the items, and it looks like a nightmare adding stuff back into the chat box. |
