Built for client build 1.60.1

wow.jim.wiki

Import strings, addon notes and macro references for World of Warcraft: Forever — a small, permanent shelf for the things that would otherwise live in a chat log.

Every aura string here is generated by tooling rather than copied out of a forum, and each one is published byte-for-byte as it came out of the generator. Nothing is loaded from a third party: no widgets, no accounts, no cookie banner, nothing to dismiss before you can read.

01 — What is on the shelf

Four things, kept separately so each stays useful.

AURAS

Import strings

Aura import strings with a copy button and a raw .txt beside each one, so a string survives even if this page changes.

ADDONS

What runs on Forever

Which aura addons actually load on this client, with the evidence for each, and links to the projects' own pages.

MACROS

Macros and markers

The macro commands that still work after the 12.0.0 protection changes — target markers in particular, where the old approach now errors.

REFERENCE

Format and limits

How an import string is actually built, and the client restrictions that decide whether an aura can work at all.

03 — Status

Where this actually is

Kept blunt on purpose. Nothing is listed as working until it has been checked, and the difference between “the string is valid” and “the aura draws on screen” is called out rather than glossed over.

A valid string is not a working aura. Every string on this site has been decoded again after being generated, so the structure is known-good against the upstream WeakAuras libraries. Whether an aura draws correctly on screen can only be proved by pasting it into ForeverAuras in game — that test has not been done for these three yet, and each page says so.

04 — Getting a string into the game

Paste, then check the aura list.

  1. Copy a string from an aura page here — the copy string button, or the .txt file.
  2. In game, open the aura editor with /fa (or /foreverauras).
  3. Choose Import and paste into the import box.
  4. Check the aura list afterwards. An entry under Loaded or Standby means it imported; no entry at all means it never did, and no amount of trigger debugging will help.

Keep your strings. This client does not persist SavedVariables — it is a known client-side bug, not an addon fault — so auras last for the session and the import string is the only durable copy. That is the reason this site exists at all.

If an aura imports but you cannot see it

Suspect the trigger before you rewrite the aura. A status-trigger aura only draws while its trigger is active, so a trigger that never fires on this client leaves you with an aura that is imported, error-free, and permanently invisible.

The quick test is the import test aura on this site: it fires constantly and always shows. If it renders, importing and display work, and the fault is in the aura you were debugging. If it does not render, stop debugging triggers and look at the addon itself.
