Fresh, tasty new features fresh from the Wowhead kitchen! We might have gone a bit overboard with the icing... but who cares!
Relative patch number will now show after the date for all site comments!
All comments throughout the site will now feature information of which patch was active when a comment was made. This way, if an item or any other aspect of the game has changed significantly since a comment has been made, it is easier for our users to recognize the relevance of new and recent additions. It is also recommended that users appropriately rate comments if they do provide proven, now-outdated information.

Comment comment comment! Hooray!
Some new developments for alchemists!
We're working on a better way to sort out this whole magical and mystical art of 'discoveries' - for starters, now all recipes listed in
Spells > Professions > Alchemy
will list 'Discovery' under the 'Source' tab. Sorting the Source tab alphabetically brings these recipes to the top, and you can expect more features and possibly some new, profession-related filters to be added at a later date. Related spells will also state 'Obtained via discovery' in the Quick Facts box found on their respective pages. Also, while not exactly an alchemist-only feature, the
Items > Consumables > Elixirs
category now features subcategories for
Battle
and
Guardian
Elixirs! If you guys can think of any other logical item subcategorizations, feel free to post suggestions on our
Site Feedback
forum.
Pet skill pages will now display a list of pet species that can learn the skill AND a list of mobs to learn it from!
Every pet skill page (such as
Bite (Rank 1)
,
Gore (Rank 9)
,
Furious Howl (Rank 3)
, etc.) will now feature a list of every pet species that can learn the skill. Clicking a particular pet species will bring you to the subcategory listing all skills that type of pet can learn - for example, the
Bat
. In addition (and in my opinion, more importantly!) every pet skill page now features a new
'Taught by'
tab, listing all mobs that a pet skill can be learned from! Now users can navigate to any pet skill page and see a list of every mob in the game that a hunter can tame and learn that particular rank of the skill from. Hunters rejoice!
Bug fixes - yay!
Various other bugs throughout the site have been fixed - some quest categorization fixes (such as in the
Zul'Aman
category), edited some outdated quest information, directing some quest chains, and some other boring fixes here and there. Of course, we want you guys to report any errors or bugs you may find either by posting to
Site Feedback
or emailing us at feedback@wowhead.com.
The list of suggestions grows daily and we've got a ton of features we want to add in the upcoming months, so we'll try to get more and more of the awesome features you guys want to see (I heard something about a 'Character Profiler' more than once) up and running as soon as we can! As always we love to hear feedback and ideas, so once again I'm going to link the
Site Feedback
forum (what, third time this post?) and implore you guys to share your ideas and suggestions! :)

More updates!!
Tradeskill recipe skillup colors in profession sections and spell pages!
All recipes in their respective
Spells > Professions
listing now include the levels which they change from orange, to yellow, to green, to grey! This information should help players out a lot in deciding their tradeskill progression paths. I also recommend checking out the
Profession Leveling Guides
sticky on the
Professions
board for more information on leveling up those pesky tradeskills!

Thotbott is now definitely useless for me.
Thanks a lot.

Damn you are the best, at the beginning I used thottbot, then changed to allakhazam, but now I only use wowhead.com and wowwiki.com if I want to know some nice lore stuff! Damn I love these 2 sites.. <3

For the elixir categories you could add a tab for elixirs that aren't battle or guardian. Duno what you'd call it and it'd only have the elixir of camouflage and elixir of the searching eye in it but it'd be useful if they added any others. Probably better things you could do with your time though.

These are amazing changes indeed. Like Lausten said, at first I used Thottbot and allakhazam, but since I discovered this site, I've never looked back.
Whenever someone in guild says to "check thott", I try to direct them to wowhead. Most people thank me for it. =)
Keep up the great work!
Same, everytime someone post a thottbot on wow forums, i say something like "Cool guys use wowhead, thottbot is for looser"
