Macro - Linking Professions In Trade Chat

This blog entry is dedicated to being able to effectively link your Professions to others.

 Below is the Macro text I used to have it display either Alchemy or Enchanting as "[Profession Name] Looking For Work":

For Alchemy:

/run local a,b,c,d=SendChatMessage,GetSpellLink,"CHANNEL",GetChannelName("Trade - City")a(select(2,b("Alchemy")).." LFW",c,nil,d)

For Enchanting:

/run local a,b,c,d=SendChatMessage,GetSpellLink,"CHANNEL",GetChannelName("Trade - City")a(select(2,b("Enchanting")).." LFW",c,nil,d)

As you may be able to tell, the blank template for the Macro is as follows:

/run local a,b,c,d=SendChatMessage,GetSpellLink,"CHANNEL",GetChannelName("Trade - City")a(select(2,b("PROFESSION NAME HERE")).." LFW",c,nil,d)

All you have to do is replace the BOLD text with the name of your Profession, copy the text into a Macro, and you're all set! (Note: Be sure to keep the "parentheses" that surround the name of the Profession. It won't function properly without them.)

I hope this write-up has helped to add clarification; and, as always, good luck!
