==Chat Macros==
===Item Link===
 /run SendChatMessage("<b><u>First half of message </u></b>"..select(2,GetItemInfo(<b><u>ItemID</u></b>)).."<b><u> Second half of message</u></b>","CHANNEL",nil,GetChannelName("Trade - City"))
This will output the following to Trade:<br/><br/>
''First half of message [ItemLink] Second half of message''
<br/><br/>Change <b><u>ItemID</u></b> to the ID of the item you want to link. ItemIDs can be found on the end of the  Armory or Wowhead URL of that item's page.

===Random Phrases===
 /cast Spell
 /run SendChatMessage(GetRandomArgument(<b><u>"Phrase1","Phrase 2","Phrase 3",etc.</u></b>),<b><u>"ChatTypeId",languageID,"Channel"</u></b>)

Replace the bold/underlined fields with the appropriate values.<br/>
<b><u>"PhraseX"</u></b> = "Eat hot lava, creep!", etc. Put as many phrases as you want in here, each contained in quotation marks and separated by commas.<br/>
<b><u>"ChatTypeId"</u></b> = [[ChatTypeId|Type of Chat]]<br/>
<b><u>"Language"</u></b> = "GOBLIN" to send the message in the Goblin language, "ORCISH" ("COMMON" for Alliance) or nil for Orcish (Common for Alliance)<br/>
<b><u>"Channel"</u></b> = Numeric value of a chat channel for ChatTypeId="CHANNEL" or player name for ChatTypeId="WHISPER"<br/>

The last three fields can be omitted if you just want the phrases in /s in Orcish.

===Emotes or chat channels:===
 /equipset [spec:1]sub;throw
 /run SendChatMessage(1==GetActiveSpecGroup()and"<b><u>Replace this with the message to send while in your primary spec ([spec:1])</u></b>"or"<b><u>Replace this with the message to send while in your secondary spec ([spec:2])</u></b>","EMOTE")

Replace <tt>EMOTE</tt> with any other [[ChatTypeId|Chat Type ID]] if you don't want /e messages. If using a chat channel or whisper, replace the second <tt>nil</tt> in each <tt>SendChatMessage()</tt> with the channel number or name to whisper (name has to be in quotation marks). Replace the emboldened/underlined phrases with the appropriate messages.

===Chat Frame Message (only visible to you):===
 /equipset [spec:1]sub;throw
 /run print(1==GetActiveSpecGroup()and"<b><u>Replace this with the message to send while in your primary spec ([spec:1])</u></b>"or"<b><u>Replace this with the message to send while in your secondary spec ([spec:2])</u></b>")

Replace the emboldened/underlined phrases with the appropriate messages.

In both macros you can replace <tt>GetActiveSpecGoup()==1</tt> with a different [[World of Warcraft API|function]] for a different conditional.

===Cooldown chat macros===
====Cooldown Chat Message====
 /run local S,B,D="<b><u>Spell Name</u></b>"B,D=GetSpellCooldown(S)SendChatMessage(format("%s has %d seconds left on its cooldown.",S,B+D-GetTime()),"<b><u>ChatTypeId</u></b>",nil,"<b><u>Channel</u></b>")

====Duration Chat Message====
 /run local S,B,C,D="<b><u>Spell Name</u></b>"B,D=GetSpellCooldown(S)C=B+D-GetTime()SendChatMessage(format(C<<b><u>X</u></b> and"%s has %d seconds remaining."or"%s is inactive.",S,<b><u>X</u></b>-C),"<b><u>ChatTypeId</u></b>",nil,"<b><u>Channel</u></b>")

====Cooldown Chat Frame Message (only visible to you)====
 /run local S,B,D="<b><u>Spell Name</u></b>"B,D=GetSpellCooldown(S)print(format("%s has %d seconds left on its cooldown.",S,B+D-GetTime()))

====Duration Chat Frame Message (only visible to you)====
 /run local S,B,C,D="<b><u>Spell Name</u></b>"B,D=GetSpellCooldown(S)C=B+D-GetTime()print(format(C<<b><u>X</u></b> and"%s has %d seconds remaining."or"%s is inactive.",S,<b><u>X</u></b>-C))

Replace the bold/underlined fields with the appropriate values:<br/>
Spell Name = Name of spell to base message on<br/>
ChatTypeid = [[ChatTypeId]]<br/>
Channel = Numeric value of chat channel or name of person to whisper (name must be in quotation marks)<br/>
X = Spell cooldown - Spell duration (in seconds)<br/>

==Mount/Companion Macros==
Indices are explained [[API_CallCompanion|here]].<br>
===Completely random companions===
 /randompet
<br>
===Random companion from a specified pool===
 /run CallCompanion("CRITTER",GetRandomArgument(<b><u>c1,c2,c3,etc.</u></b>))
Replace <b><u>c1,c2,c3,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your companions.
<br>
===Random companion with exceptions===
 /run local r,c,t=random,"CRITTER"t={r(<b><u>X-1</u></b>),r(<b><u>X+1</u></b>,<b><u>Y-1</u></b>),r(<b><u>Y+1</u></b>,<b><u>Z-1</u></b>),r(<b><u>Z+1</u></b>,GetNumCompanions(c))}CallCompanion(c,t[r(#t)])
Where <b><u>X,Y,Z</u></b> are indices of companions you <i>don't</i> want the macro to summon. This pattern can be repeated as many times as needed to exlude any number of companions (at a certain point it becomes more efficient to specify which companions you <i>do</i> want to summon rather than which ones you <i>don't</i>). <b><u>X,Y,Z</u></b> must be in ascending order from left to right.
i.e. X < Y < Z
<br>
=====Correct Usage=====
X=10, Y=20, Z=25

 t={r(<b><u>9</u></b>),r(<b><u>11</u></b>,<b><u>19</u></b>),r(<b><u>21</u></b>,<b><u>24</u></b>),r(<b><u>26</u></b>,GetNumCompanions(c))}
<br>
=====Incorrect Usage=====
X=20, Y=10, Z=25

 t={r(<b><u>19</u></b>),r(<b><u>21</u></b>,<b><u>9</u></b>),r(<b><u>11</u></b>,<b><u>24</u></b>),r(<b><u>26</u></b>,GetNumCompanions(c))}
<br>
===Completely random mounts===
 /run local m="MOUNT"if not IsMounted()and IsOutdoors()then CallCompanion(m,random(GetNumCompanions(m)))end
<br>
===Random mounts from a specified pool===
 /run if not IsMounted()and IsOutdoors()then CallCompanion("MOUNT",GetRandomArgument(<b><u>i1,i2,i3,i4,etc.</u></b>))end
Replace <b><u>i1,i2,i3,i4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your mounts. 
<br><br>
===Smart random flyer/ground mount===
 /run local g=GetRandomArgument if not IsMounted()and IsOutdoors()then CallCompanion("MOUNT",IsFlyableArea()and g(<b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b>)or g(<b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b>))end
Replace <b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your flying mounts and <b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your ground mounts.
<br><br>
===Smart random aquatic/flyer/ground mount===
 /run if IsOutdoors() and not IsMounted()then local g,z=GetRandomArgument,GetRealZoneText()CallCompanion("MOUNT",(z=="Kelp'thar Forest"or z=="Shimmering Expanse"or z=="Abyssal Depths"or z=="Vashj'ir")and IsSwimming()and not IsModifierKeyDown()and <b><u>s</u></b> or IsFlyableArea()and g(<b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b>)or g(<b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b>)
Replace <b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your flying mounts, <b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your ground mounts and <b><u>s</u></b> with the index of your Seahorse (usually 1).
<br/><br/>
This is only useful when you get the [[Subdued_Abyssal_Seahorse|Seahorse]] from [[Vashj'ir]] at 80 or above. It also won't fit in a regular macro and as such requires an addon such as [http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/bind-pad.aspx BindPad] that allows for longer macros.
<br><br>
===Random companion and smart random flyer/ground mount===
 /run local g=GetRandomArgument SummonRandomCritter()if not IsMounted()and IsOutdoors()then CallCompanion("MOUNT",IsFlyableArea()and g(<b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b>)or g(<b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b>))end
Replace <b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your flying mounts and <b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your ground mounts.
<br><br>
===Random companion from a specified pool and smart random flyer/ground mount===
 /run local c,g=CallCompanion,GetRandomArgument c("CRITTER",g(<b><u>c1,c2,c3,etc.</u></b>))if not IsMounted()and IsOutdoors()then c("MOUNT",IsFlyableArea()and g(<b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b>)or g(<b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b>))end
Replace <b><u>c1,c2,c3,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your companions, <b><u>f1,f2,f3,f4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your flying mounts and <b><u>g1,g2,g3,g4,etc.</u></b> with the indices of your ground mounts.

==Weapon Macros==
===Main/Off Hand Weapon Swap Macro===
Make an equipment set called <b><u>WeaponAMain</u></b> with <b><u>WeaponA</u></b> in your main hand, <b><u>WeaponB</u></b> in your off hand and all other slots ignored.
<br/>Make another set called <b><u>WeaponBMain</u></b> with <b><u>WeaponB</u></b> in your main hand, <b><u>WeaponA</u></b> in your off hand and all other slots ignored. 

 /run UseEquipmentSet(GetItemInfo(GetInventoryItemID("player",16))=="<b><u>WeaponA</u></b>")and"<b><u>WeaponBMain</u></b>"or"<b><u>WeaponAMain</u></b>")
<br/>
Replace the bold/underlined parts with the appropriate names.

===Shaman Weapon Imbue Macro===
 #showtooltip
 /use [@none]Imbue Name
 /use 17
 /click StaticPopup1Button1

This will enchant your off hand weapon, replace 17 with 16 for the main hand.<br/><br/>
<tt>@none</tt> is the key to this macro, it tells a spell to cast at "no target", bringing up a blue-outline hand cursor that you can then click on something with to cast the spell at it.
<br/><tt>/use 17</tt> then acts as if you clicked on your off hand weapon, telling the macro to cast the imbue on it.
<br/><tt>/click StaticPopup1Button1</tt> then clicks the OK button on the confirmation popup.
<br/><br/>
You can use modifiers or mouse buttons if you want to have multiple imbues in the same macro.
