Lore Forever Slash Commands: Every /lore Command Explained

The Lore Forever add-on for World of Warcraft: Forever (WoW Forever) answers to /lore, plus /lf and /loreforever, and typing /lore help in game prints its own command list. Anything you type after /lore that is not a command is sent as a question. The lists below follow the add-on's code as of its October 22 checkout; /lore help is the final word.

Quick answer: /lore opens or closes the panel. /lore plus a sentence asks a question. /lore listen plays a story, /lore subtitles moves the subtitles, /lore key changes your key, /lore lang changes language, /lore options opens settings.

The /lore commands in six groups: open and ask, journey and quests, listen, keys and screen, language, and Willo and help.
The /lore command groups, read from the add-on's code and CurseForge page, November 9, 2026.

Key facts

  • Three spellings: /lore, /lf and /loreforever open the same add-on. The code says /loreforever is "ours alone", for players whose /lore goes to another add-on that also claims it.
  • Skipped on purpose: ctx, export, visits, stats, debug and qa (see the end).

Which commands open things and ask questions?

  • /lore opens or closes the panel. Press your Lore Forever key for the same.
  • /lore <question> asks directly, for example "/lore why is westfall so poor" (the add-on's own example).
  • /lore ask <question> asks the Willo companion app when it is installed; without it, this is an ordinary question. See how to ask Lore Forever questions.
  • /lore primer opens the dungeon primer for where you are.
  • /lore library (also /lore narrations) opens the Library tab of recorded stories.
  • /lore journey shows what your character has done so far; /lore picture takes a journey picture; /lore sync saves it now and reloads the interface.
  • /lore quests (also /lore completed) lists the quests you have completed, by zone.
  • /lore report (also /lore feedback) reports the newest answer as wrong, like the cross under an answer.
  • /lore options (also /lore config and /lore settings) opens Options.

Which commands control narration?

  • /lore listen plays the last narrated answer, or the story of where you are; typing it again while it plays stops it.
  • /lore stop stops all narration.
  • /lore autoplay switches narration as you arrive in a place on or off.
  • /lore ondemand switches "narration only when you press Play" on or off.
  • /lore narrate switches flight narration on or off.
  • /lore voice lists your narration voices; /lore voice <number or name> puts one first, "auto" is the default, "none" is off. See narrator voices explained.
  • /lore subtitles lets you drag the subtitles; /lore subtitles reset puts them back.

Details are in Listen, playlist and subtitles.

Which commands set keys, windows and language?

  • /lore key opens the prompt for the key that opens the panel; /lore key narrate does the same for a key that plays narration. See how to open Lore Forever and set its key.
  • /lore reset brings back the panel, the floating player and the minimap button, and keeps your journey and settings.
  • /lore lang lists languages; /lore lang <code> picks one. English, Deutsch, Español, Français and Português are named, and Automatic follows the WoW client. You may need to type /reload afterwards.
  • /lore tooltips and /lore nudge switch tooltip lore and zone hints; they are not in the /lore help list.

Which commands belong to Willo?

Willo is the optional companion app. /lore willo shows where to get her, when she is not installed. /lore live switches live game info on or off, /lore sky moves her star field off the minimap and /lore sky reset puts it back. With Willo installed, /lore key willo sets the key you hold to talk to her.

Which commands help with bug reports?

  • /lore version says which version you have and whether a newer one is out.
  • /lore errors shows recent Lua errors from the add-on in a box to copy; /lore errors clear empties the list.
  • Skipped: /lore ctx, export, visits and stats print what the add-on sees, for bug reports and playtests; debug and qa are developer switches.

What is not confirmed yet

  • The current in-game /lore help list. The add-on has changed many times since the code I read, so type /lore help.
  • Commands added after October 22; the what's new entries since then name no new /lore command that I could find, but they do not list every change.

How can the Lore Forever add-on and Willo help with this?

The add-on is free, fan-made and not affiliated with Blizzard, with no internet access. Willo is a separate companion app for Windows 10 or 11 and Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 12 or later) per her page; CurseForge still calls her a Windows app. She is free to start with 50 answers a day; ask her out loud which command you need. She can be wrong, so /lore help wins. See the add-on guide and how to use Willo.
