Hi im trying to make a macro to link my guild community/ recruit message.
At the moment im having to /2 for trade , then “guild>invite member>link post to chat” to get my guilds link to show in chat (the yellow writing link to press eg [Guild:Subterranean]…and then copy and paste my text i want to add into the chat and press enter…is there a way to macro this so it is just a 1 button macro so it looks like this in chat so i have both the clickable link and also the other info.

Linking Community/Guild into Macro

(Edit) see my follow-up post #5: Linking Community/Guild into Macro You can link guilds or communities into a macro but it’s a bit unintuitive, you need to select the macro editbox first and then click the share link button Alternatively you can announce the link through the api, e.g. to the trade channel /run local c=ClubFinderGetCurrentClubListingInfo(C_Club.GetGuildClubId())SendChatMessage("test "..GetClubFinderLink(club.clubFinderGUID, club.name).." message","CHANNEL",nil,2)

Hi , i tried that it worked but as the macro text to just get the gold clickable guild thing is so long i hardly have room for my guild message.
Is there another option ? or am i doing something wrong?

Use the method to insert the raw link into your macro as is shown in this video https://streamable.com/50m5q

Linking Community/Guild into Macro

It looks like patch 8.3.0 broke that functionality since it steals your focus whenever you click somewhere https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/new-chat-behaviour/416933 How to make it work: https://streamable.com/k1mqqq https://streamable.com/k1mqqq Open the guild and macro frame, Click “Invite Member” Focus the macro text box SHIFT-Click “Link Post in Chat” Alternatively, just post it to chat first and then Shift-Click it to your macro.

When you open trade and then try to link the guild name, it doesn’t work at all. Neither does cut and paste, not even in the chats, much less with macros, None of it works. Total fail on the guild interface, needs to be re-done professionally, and made so it has basic functionality, we pay too much in subs for this amateur hour sloppy, incompetent garbage, lets get something that works instead maybe? Thanks.
