How to add WoW item links in your blog

WoWDB calls it Syndication. You have to add an entry first with something like this:

<script src="http://www.wowdb.com/js/extooltips.js"></script>

Then if that's done, you can now add links to your blogs by adding entries like this:

<a class="r4" href="http://www.wowdb.com/item.aspx?id=32964">Merciless Gladiator's Salvation</a>

Sample Entry:
Merciless Gladiator's Salvation

For complete WoWDB Syndication documentation, see this page:

Now, how about if we are going to let WoWHead power it? Instead of the above, you would have to type a different entry:

<script src="http://www.wowhead.com/widgets/power.js"></script>

Adding links the WoWHead way would be something like this:

<a href="http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32964">http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32964</a>

Sample Entry:
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32964

That easy. :)

How about powering it up by Thottbot? All you need to do is add another script:

<script src="http://i.thottbot.com/power.js"></script>

I suggest you get all these scripts by the way on the first line of the blog to keep track of it. It is however not necessary as it can be placed anywhere on the code.

Then place your link like this:

<a href="http://thottbot.com/i32964"><font color="#8000FF">Merciless Gladiator"s Salvation</font></a>

And as a sample entry:
Merciless Gladiator"s Salvation

Simple enough, hehe ;)
