FAQ
General
Q:Is this addon complete ?
A:No this addon still in a beta like state, most things work and it should be usable for now, but dont except a fully functioning addon before rc1.0. This addon is here now for testing and developing it, so please download it and test it and if u find bugs post it here

Q:How can i submit a bug report
A:Much things are needed for a bug report. First if u discover a bug check the comments or the bug reporting tool on this site to see was it already reported by somebody. In the bug report please submit the following data:
- Description of the bug
- Client Locale
- How do u reproduce the bug?
- Are other addons loaded ? (see below)
- Is the bug without addons ?
- Which addon is loaded when the bug appeared (see below)

If the bug isnt there with default UI, but is there with all the addons loaded do the following to find out which addon is causing it:
1 Disable all addons
2 Check if the bug is there
3 Enable one of ur addons
4 Do 2,3 until u have all the addons loaded

Features
Q:My 'Lock Tracker' function is grayed out and i cant move the tracker
A:CT_Core and other frame mover addons are hooking the QuestWatchFrame:SetPoint() function which makes beql unable to position the tracker where it like it to be. So if CT_Core is loaded the addons quest tracker mover functions are disabled, u cant enable them with theese addons loaded. To move the tracker u must use the other mover addon (CT_Core, MoveAnything etc.)

Q:bEQL's tracker is gone and the tracker options are grayed out.
A:If Fubar_QuestsFU the addon disables his tracker use QuestsFU's tracker.

Q:Adding new quests doesnt work
A:The 'Add new quests' function requires a perfect translation into your locale to work, without this it cant find the line 'Quest Accepted: '.. to pick up the quest name to add it to the tracker. Currently only enUS and enGB are 100% supported. The localization will be complete when the addon will be released (1.0).
Some locales for some languages are still missing, if u fell that is not good so u could write theese files yourself :). Use the localization.lua and localization-de.lua as templates. localization.lua will hold all the strings im using, and localization-de is now the best (not compelete) file written.
Keep in mind that there is no if GetLocale() == .. line in the default (localization.lua) file but in the others (see localization-de.lua) u MUST include them.

    I did notice one fairly nasty bug that showed up recently with BEQL. It seems that the mod keeps a sticky tracking of quests, even if you've completed them. This is useful for dailies, since the quest will automatically be re-tracked upon picking it up for the next day. However, for levelling, this causes the fairly serious problem of artificially filling up your tracking, so that you can no longer track additional quests, since ones that are completed - and not repeatable - are still flagged as being tracked.

    Easily fixed (for me) by editing the beql.lua file in my WTF folder, but not a solution for the faint-of-heart. This should probably be an optional feature, or only work for repeatable quests.

    hi it seemed to work fine and now it won't show some quests in the list in certain zones at all

    have to disable it :(

  • I've disabled this addon as well and have no questing addon now, as BEQL no longer tracks quests or achievements or updates quest criteria.

  • Try reverting back to 1.0.5 While both 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 had mentioned problems, 1.0.5 still works for me as it should.

  • Alright folks, sorry for the inconvenient. Report me if anything is a critical bug.
    Also I know the trackers (Quest tracker and Achievements tracker) are not working properly at the moment. I am working on updating it with the new WoW Api. I just wanted to start for a very few bug version. Fix should come along the way.

    The grey box was not there for me because I disable the tracker since I use the Quest Helper one. I will make sure to make further test from a fresh install before updating next time. I still have to go thought the mod since I took over. But at least I released my other mod which work very well :D
    Thanks for your patience.

  • Hello Bloodomen and thx for the update. The only thing that I would like to know is, about the toc file. You have 30101 and that’s making it out of date where I have to check the load out of date box (this is not a biggie) I can change it to 30100 and all is ok, but then curse updater sees it as altered and will not automatically update. So if you wrote it to be 30101 so be it, and thx for taking this mod over........good job indeed.

  • yeah I saw I did a typo, I didn't want to press a new release just for that. I will try to squeeze back one or 2 features in this week end and it would be included in it.

  • Ok, I really appreciate you guys trying to get some issues sorted with Bayi's Extended Questlog what with taking on new authors, but as of 1.0.6, the addon is now unusable, as it has a large grey unmovable window serving no purpose, which was not there in 1.0.5. Please resolve this as soon as you can.

  • Ok I will look into it shortly.

  • BeQL Version 1.0.6
    WoW Version 3.1.2 (9947) (Release)

    Deleted the old AddOn folder and any remaining files from the WTF folder.
    Disabled all other AddOns.

    Quest and Achievement Tracker shows as a gray/white empty box and no quests can be tracked by Shift-clicking them.

  • just updated to 1.0.6, completely removed my old beql folder just to be sure and even dumped all my saved variables. the achievement tracker is showing up with a grey bg even when nothing is being tracked, no settings seem to change it. also shift clicking quests/achievements or accepting/progressing on quests don't add them to the tracker at all.

  • Ok BloodOmen I found out that it was another mod doing the dirty deed. I got rid of it, problem solved.

  • hey BloodOmen, I just wanted to see if you could help me out here. ever senice the patch when i pull up my quest log, my quest details or not in the detail box in the log frame but in a seperate box frame. Also beql was showing out of date in my addons after the update on the 6th. So i check the files and the toc file was showing 30101, i changed it to 30100 and that cleared up that issue. But the quest details box is still out there on it's own. If you can shed some light on this for me it would be helpful, thx.

  • I created version 1.0.6. It should be errors free. Some features might be missing, you can report them, we should make them functional again over time.
