Title Macro Help?

Post by BardielofBlood

I have this macro running for equipping/unequipping my fishing gear

#showtooltip
/equip 4 4
/equip 4 5
/equip 4 6

Now is there a way to add the "settitle" macros to it to set my title as "Salty" when I use it and "Loremaster" when I use it a second time?

Ex: Equip fishing gear/become Salty, unequip/become Loremaster?

Add this to your macro:

/run SetCurrentTitle(x)

...where x is the place in the list of your titles where the one you want is. For example, if Salty is 4th in your titles list, replace x with 4.

Taking the above further, here's something to auto-switch titles properly,

I'm going to assume you're equipping a fishing pole when you change to the fishing set. You can do a little trickery with the API. Unfortunately there's no straightforward IsItemEquipped function, so you'll have to know the item ID:

/run SetCurrentTitle(GetInventoryItemID('player',16)==6256 and x or y)

The 6245 is the item ID of your fishing pole. In this case it's the standard Fishing Pole. If you have a different fishing pole, change the ID accordingly. You can get an item ID at the end of a Wowhead URL, in this case:

http://www.wowhead.com/item=6256

Or you can equip your pole and run the following to print its ID:

/run print('Your main hand's ID is: '..tostring(GetInventoryItemID('player',16)))

will print 'nil' if you have nothing equipped.

Change the x and y to the relevant titles.

Edit: You can find a list of title IDs here: http://www.wowwiki.com/TitleId

If they turn out to be incorrect, you can find the ID of a title by setting it, then running:

/run print('Your current title ID is: '..tostring(GetCurrentTitle()))

will probably print 'nil' (or possibly 0) if you have no title set.

Note: Because this depends on the fishing pole already being equipped, you will need to put the /run line at the end of the macro (after the Fishing Pole is equipped).
