TradeLogAdvanced
Gold changes hands constantly in Azeroth, and keeping a reliable record of every deal matters whether you run a crafting empire or just sell the occasional stack of ore. TradeLogAdvanced is a fully modernized revival of the classic TradeLog addon, rebuilt to survive the current interface and to give you real control over your trade history. If you have ever lost a sale record to a UI error or struggled to prove a trade happened, this addon was made for you.
What TradeLogAdvanced Does
At its core, TradeLogAdvanced quietly logs your trades in the background: who you traded with, what items changed hands, and how much gold moved in either direction. Unlike the original addon, it accurately captures pure-gold trades, so loans, tips, and gold-for-gold swaps are no longer invisible in your history. The entire codebase has been rewritten for the modern WoW UI structure, which means no more taint errors and no more missing Blizzard API calls breaking your session mid-raid.
Advanced Clearing System
Old trade logs pile up fast, especially on a busy auction or crafting character. TradeLogAdvanced solves that with two layers of cleanup.
- Single delete: checkboxes appear next to each entry in the trade list, letting you remove one specific record without touching the rest.
- Conditional clear: a dedicated popup window lets you bulk-delete history by time, such as older than 3 days or 30 days, by trade result like Success or Failed, or by a specific character you traded with.
That conditional filter is the feature most traders never knew they needed. Instead of wiping everything or pruning entries one by one, you can clear exactly the clutter you want gone while preserving the records that matter for audits or guild bookkeeping.
Smart Trade Announcements
Recording trades is only half the story; telling people about them is the other half. Roughly half a second after a successful trade, TradeLogAdvanced pops up a sleek announcement window pre-filled with a summary of the items and gold involved. You can edit the text freely before sending, so the message sounds like you rather than a rigid system string. One-click buttons then push the summary to Say, Party, Raid, or Guild chat, or whisper it directly to your trading partner for confirmation.
Need to resend something from last week? Open any completed trade from your history, hit the Send Announcement button in the detail window, and a fresh report is generated on the spot. It is a small touch that saves real time when a buyer asks for proof after the fact.
Version Support and Compatibility
Retail and Classic Flavors
TradeLogAdvanced for World of Warcraft is built to follow the live client while respecting the older ones. It supports Retail, Classic, The Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, and Mists of Pandaria, so whether you are farming gold on a fresh Classic realm or trading on Retail, the same logging and announcement workflow applies. The addon detects your client version and loads the appropriate API paths automatically.
Installing Without Headaches
Wondering how to install it? The manual route is simple: grab the folder from your addon source, drop it into your World of Warcraft Interface AddOns directory, and restart the client. If you would rather skip folder juggling entirely, the foxygame.net launcher handles the whole process with a single click, placing TradeLogAdvanced in the correct directory and keeping it updated as new builds ship. The launcher also tracks version compatibility across game flavors, so you are never left running a stale copy after a patch.
Why Traders Keep It Installed
Trade addons live or die on trust. A log that misses gold-only trades or crashes after a major patch is worse than no log at all, because it gives false confidence. TradeLogAdvanced earns its place by fixing those exact failures: accurate records, flexible deletion, and announcements you can shape before they hit chat. Download TradeLogAdvanced once, set your announcement preferences, and let it handle the paperwork while you focus on the next deal.
