Feature Description:
I would like to suggest the implementation of an import/export feature for World of Warcraft addons and their configurations within the CurseForge client. This feature would allow users to easily backup, share, and restore their complete addon setups including all custom settings and configurations.
Current Limitations:
Currently, users must manually backup their Interface and WTF folders or rely on the existing Sync feature, which has limitations and doesn't always work reliably for configuration synchronization. Many users struggle with addon setup when switching computers or helping friends configure their UI.curseforge+2
Proposed Solution:
Export Function: Create a comprehensive export tool that packages both addons and their configurations into a single, shareable file format
Import Function: Allow users to import these packages to instantly restore or replicate addon setups
Configuration Preservation: Ensure all addon settings, keybindings, and customizations are preserved during the transfer process
Cross-Profile Compatibility: Make the system work across different WoW game versions (Retail, Classic, Classic Era)
Benefits:
Simplified addon setup for new players and fresh installationsreddit
Easy sharing of addon configurations between guild members or friends
Reliable backup solution that goes beyond the current Sync limitationsreddit+1
Reduced time spent reconfiguring addons after system changes or reinstallscurseforge
Implementation Suggestions:
Similar to Minecraft modpack export functionality that already exists in CurseForgecurseforge
Include options to export/import selective addon groups rather than entire configurations
Maintain compatibility with existing Sync profiles while offering this as an enhanced backup option
This feature would significantly improve the user experience for WoW players and address one of the most commonly requested functionalities in the community.reddit+1
