In BfA, you can do the following with a crafting recipe spell name, and get the related spellID:

local spellLink = GetSpellLink(spellName);
    if spellLink then
        return tonumber(spellLink:match("spell:(%d+)"));
    end

However in Classic this just returns an empty string in the spellLink variable.

I used to use GetTradeSkillLink with an index to get this information, but that function has been removed.

Does anyone know the correct way to get the spellID from a crafted name with WoW Classic, such as:

• Smelt Bronze
• Murloc Fin Soup
• Heavy Linen Bandage

Thanks!
