WoW Forever Addon Guides
Which addons work on WoW Forever, where to get them and how to set them up, checked against the live client.
This hub collects the guides about addons for World of Warcraft: Forever, Blizzard's own game launched on 4 November 2026 (client 1.60.1). Forever runs on the modern client, so Classic Era addons do not carry over, and Midnight's addon rules close the combat log and hide some combat values. Each guide says which files really exist for Forever and which popular names do not.
The guides are organised by job. Start with how to install addons in WoW Forever: the _forever_ folder, CurseForge, WowUp, manual installs and reading Lua errors. WoW Forever best addons names one pick per job, from quests and bags to the map, damage meters, boss mods and threat. Single-addon guides cover Questie, Auctionator and TSM, Leatrix Plus and Maps, Details with DBM or BigWigs, the Talents Forever and GearQuest planners, UI tools and bag addons. The WeakAuras page explains why the official addon is missing and what the built-in Cooldown Manager and community forks can replace.
Keep to a handful of addons, one per job, and check the Files tab for a Forever build before installing. Related: settings. Players also ask whether a bot can run all of this for them. The ForeverBot first-run setup guide covers the tool, but automation breaks Blizzard's rules and accounts get banned for it.

Frequently asked questions
Where do addons go in WoW Forever?
Forever has its own folder: World of Warcraft\ forever \Interface\AddOns , not retail or classic era . The easiest route is the CurseForge app with the Forever installation selected. After adding an addon, restart the game fully and tick it at character select.
Does WeakAuras work in WoW Forever?
The official WeakAuras has no Forever version, because its team chose not to support the Midnight addon rules that Forever uses. Start with the built in Cooldown Manager, or install one community fork, ForeverAuras or Musca Auras, but never both. Anything built on combat log triggers will not work on any of them.
Does Questie still work in WoW Forever?
Yes. Questie has an official Forever release, so download the file marked for WoW Forever from CurseForge or the Questie GitHub page and ignore unofficial re uploads. Many quests that are new in Forever have no markers yet, because its database started from Classic data.
