Broker_Portals
Why would you have actionbars filled with portals, or open your spellbook everytime you cast a portal? Just right click on icon or minimap button and you can access all portals so comfortably.
It is designed as DataBroker plug-in, that lets you access all portal and teleport spells from one spot. Addon will be attached to minimap by default, but if you want to move/customize it, you will have to install additional addon like TitanPanel, HidingBar, or Bazooka and there are many more.
Features:
- All mage portals, hearthstone and teleporting items available from simple dropdown menu
- Minimap button, so you don't have to install any additional addon
- Hearthstone location and cooldown in tooltip
- Reagent count in tooltip (for Cataclusm Classic)
- If hearthstone is on cooldown, Scroll of Recall will be used instead if possible
- Can announce, that you're casting a portal
Localization:
If you'd like to add/update localizations, do so here. Then leave a comment on WowAce or on Curse as I'm checking those more often than localization app itself, and I'll repack it.
Bugs / Suggestions:
If you have encountered any problem, or if you think theres something missing. Feel free to post a ticket here.
FAQ:
- I managed to hide my minimap icon, how do I turn it on again?
- Just simply type "/portals".
- Does it support teleportation items like engineering teleports or Kirin Tor rings?
- Yes.
TODO:
Enable adding custom items/spells
I tried doing that. I got the warspear/stormshield portals and the new eng wormhole added but I can't seem to get the HS working when I add it the whole add on just stops working.
Yeah, still waiting for a Warspear and Garrison portal addition.
Marked as inactive so looks like RiP add on unless someone take's it up.
i still dont see the garrrison hearthstone i updated from curse :( but ty for all your hard work
it hasn't been updated yet ...... but hoplly it will be :\
Thank you everyone for the suggestions on updating for WoD. Definitely much appreciated!
there is also the new wormhole centrifude for engineering
Hopefully someone will take over this addon and update it.
I updated the addon to streamline the cooldown to include hours, minutes, and seconds instead of just minutes.
It now shows for example "2:h 34:m 13:s" instead of "155 min" and 14:m 12:s instead of just 15 min. This is easier to read and less space consuming.
I also updated to include the new portals, garrison hearthstone and new wormhole for engineers.
I applied your updates from the tickets and it seems to work great so far on my mage. If you are willing and able I think you should create a separate fan update version of this mod so it can keep on living.
Thank you for your help in fixing this.
Hello, any upcoming update for WoD release ? Missing Garrison Hearthstone and Warspear teleports there...
Thanks for doing this.. I hope this gets updated.. been using this for years.
tp warspear works
Does someone got the Garrison Hearthstone working?
in portals.lua
section ID's of items used for transportation add
110560, -- Garrison Hearthstone
I just put it as the first line under Dal Rings so it would be at the top of the list after the normal hearthstone section...
Garrison add def worked! Is there an id to add the Ashran portal and teleport like that?
Yep. In section for portals (local function SetupSpells()) add to portals/teleports list:
{ 176248, 'TP_RUNE' }, -- TP:StormShield
{ 176246, 'P_RUNE' } -- P:StormShield
in corresponding alliance/horde sections
here is my portals.lua
i added the Garrison Hearthstone and the portal/teleport to Storm Shield and Warspear (Warspear i could not test)

Thank you for this!
Can you update this to reflect compatibility with 6.0.2? There does not seems to be any errors with the latest patch, just needs to have hte toc updated.
Any chance of adding a function to select a favorate portal to simply click on the bar button and activate it? Currently I only have my hearthstone and I keep trying to click the button to port.
I recently started using another addon here on curse, Equipped Forager, and it inspired me to make the following suggestion for items that Broker_Portals uses such as the "Cloak of Coordination". Using the cloak as an example, my suggestion would be to have the addon remember the item replaced by the cloak, and then re-equip that item after use. Perhaps it could know that it's OK to re-equip the item if the cloak currently has a cool down (i.e., that's how the addon would know that the teleport has completed.)
Having the addon actually equip the item then use it might be tricky to do with an addon (perhaps impossible); however, I think that the addon could easily requip the replaced item similar to how "Equipped Forager" works. At least that would remove one additional step!
If I have some time I may try to add the feature myself and submit it to you. But, I suspect you'd be able to do it a lot faster/easier given your familiarity with Broker_Portals, so that's why I figured I would suggest it first. Thanks!
