3.0/WotLK AddOn Survival Guide

[Cairenn]

We were told that people found it really helpful last time, so we're doing it again.

Just like when 2.4 went live, we know that 3.0 is going to have a major impact on a number of addons, and understanding how frustrating it is for users having to check site after site trying to find updates of their favourite addons, we’ve done an AddOn Survival Guide for 3.0 to try to help everyone out. We’ve made a list of over 100 of the top addons across all the major sites (WoWI, Curse, incgamers' and Ace) and put together a page to help. From this one page you can see whether any of these top addons have had an update, a beta update or no update yet for 3.0. If an addon has an update or beta update available, there will be an icon (or icons) that provide a link to the download page for the addon on whichever sites it is available. We will continue to monitor these addons for a few days after 3.0 goes live and revise the page as more get updated, until the rush is over.

If you know of an addon on the list that has been updated and we haven’t refreshed it on the list, please feel free to get in touch with us. You can send a PM to a staff member on the site, join us in irc (irc://irc.freenode.net/WoWUIDev) or by sending me an email: [email protected]. Please be sure to include the link for the updated version.

Hopefully users will find this page helpful. Check it out here (or by clicking the icon to the right) and check back often to see if your favourite addons have been updated yet!

Thanks Cairenn, I am planning on wiping my current UI and start everything from scratch, so this will definitely help grabbing what has been updated.

Awesome guide, really. It looks so good, I'd love to see if a similar layout could be used going forward.

One where you get a listing like in the survival guide, for different categories or other filters/search criteria, vs how an addon is searched out here now (favorites list, various forum topics, etc.). Anyway, the Survival Guide looks really nice and makes it easier to find current versions of addons. Great job.

Thank you for again making things easier for add on users
Like the first poster, I am going to wipe the UI file and start clean.

This is going to be scary when realms come back up, but so far so good

Uh huh, makes me glad I grabbed the AddOns I need to update a couple of days ago.
