This forum has the ability to show stats of items, quests and spells from World of Warcraft on Mouseover. The following is a brief writeup on how to use this feature in your forum posts.

Items

To Link an item in your post, use the tag:
[wowitem] or [item]
or click on the button.
Example:

[wowitem]Warglaive of Azzinoth[/wowitem] or [item]Warglaive of Azzinoth[/item]


Would produce:
[wowitem]Warglaive of Azzinoth[/wowitem]

If you know the ID of the Item you can do the following

[wowitem]32837[/wowitem]
  //replace 34234 with the Item ID

Itemids can be used from wowhead.com or direct out of the game if you use Itemstats, Atlasloot, Lootlink or Auctioneer.

You must specify the spell ID after the = sign. You must also give the link a name, it doesnt have to be identical to the spell, but it would be helpful if it were.

To find the spell ID, you simply need to search wowhead.com and look at the spell ID number in your browser's address bar as shown in the below image:
