(1) If you want anything to be done about a problem, you need to be a lot more specific about
what the problem is than "it's not working as expected". What action are you performing? What do you expect to happen? What is actually happening? Is there an error message? Do you have Lua error display turned on? Do you have the same problem(s) when all other addons are disabled? Have you reported the problem(s) to the addon's author?
(2) I've never tried Ludwig, but I do use
Linkepedia for the feature you described in your original post. The latest version is about a year old, but it works just fine. The only thing is that you'll need to manually change the "highest possible item number" value in the code if you want to link newer items. Open Linkepedia.lua in Notepad or another
plain-text editor, and change these numbers near the top:
Code:
LNKPD_MAX_ITEM_ID = 100000;
LNKPD_MAX_SPELL_ID = 150000;
Save the file, reload your UI in-game if you're already logged in, and then rebuild your database ("/linkepedia build" if it's your first time, or "/linkepedia expand" if you've already built your database). If it's your first time loading the addon, it will prompt you at login to build your database; just click the start button and let it run.
