  • About QuestGuru
  •  

QuestGuru is a Quest Log replacement that includes a Quest History, showing all quests that have been completed since installing the addon.

Features include:
- Enhanced quest display in the log
- Built-in announcer with customizable messages
- Custom Tracker which can be used independantly of QuestGuru, or in conjunction for full functionality

PLEASE READ THE FAQ AND KNOWN ISSUES BEFORE POSTING A BUG REPORT

F A Q
====================
Q. Why aren't quests auto-tracking?
A.  There are options built in to the game that cover this.  Bring up the game's options and select Objectives, there are a few options that can be chosen for how and when quests are tracked.

Q. ACHIEVEMENTS (can't untrack, getting error, etc. etc.)
A. SHIFT-CLICK the offending achievement to untrack it.

Q. Why is the quest text cut off or have strange symbols in it?
A. There was a bug in previous versions of QuestGuru that might cause this.  The fix is to completely exit out of the game, browse to your WTF\Account\[Account Name]\SavedVariables folder and open QuestGuru.lua this file for "QuestGuru_MoreNPCNames" and "QuestGuru_MoreAreaNames" (usually at the bottom of the file) and look for an entry that looks like:

 [""] = 1,

Delete that line, save the file, and relaunch WoW.

WHEN POSTING A BUG REPORT - Please include the version of QuestGuru you are using and copy/paste the error message you receive.

Pleast note: If you are currently using a quest log replacement you MUST disable it when using QuestGuru.

  • I'm having trouble with my QuestGuru main display window. It doesn't show any errors but the display is stuck on the 2nd to last quest in the window. It will not show the quest description for any other quest. I can't click on any other quests in the window to change it and double-clicking or clicking them from the Quest tracker opens the display to the 2nd to last quest again.

    I have deleted the variables and re-installed. Any advice?

    I have a strange problem.

    When I complete a quest or get a new one, QuestGuru doesn't update, and either continues to show the quest I just completed or it just doesn't show the new one.

    I have tried to remove the add-on (Including the saved variables) and re-install it, but the problem persists.

    Any ideas what could cause it and/or how to fix it?

  • I would Love it if you combined the List feature of 2.0 with the history feature of 1.3 that way you have the best of both worlds, but if I had to choose, I like the 2.0 list feature, at least that way you have a handy list of all quests for a given area at your fingertips.

    Check out EveryQuest, I hear it does a good job of displaying the entire quest list.

    Does anyone know if there are any conflicts with EveryQuest with QuestGuru. I like this addon and don't want to loose the functionality of it to get the history.

    This addon broke my UI: With this Addon enabled, I wouldn't see my actionbars anymore after getting on or off a vehicle while being in combat. Really strange and seems unrelated, but I tested it by removing all my addons one by one, and when I removed QuestGuru, the problem stopped. When I reinstalled QuestGuru, the problem came back.

    actually, Blizzard broke your UI, this addon just exposes their poor programming. They've fixed a similar bug before, but it took many months and hundreds of complaints.

    You can't because 1.3 does not include this feature, nor does it say it does anywhere...

    If you seem to be stuck on a quest, usually the last one in the list, it's another addon conflicting. Usually something like Titan Quests, or maybe any addon that displays a list of quests

    I can't seem to move the tracker it is at the bottom of my screen and I can't even see most of what I am tracking. I have turned all addons off and still can not move it please help. Oh and the option to pin the tracker to the screen is not checked so I should be able to move it.

    also check to see if the option to click through tracker is enabled, that will also make it so you can't move it (because you can't click on it)

    Wanted to update everyone... Every 9 weeks I have finals, and last week was that week, so I was unable to work on QuestGuru very much at all. Yesterday I got a job offer at a new company, so today I had to put in my 2 weeks notice at my old job, which means the next month or so is going to be extremely busy with training my replacements then getting settled into my new job. I will work on QuestGuru when I can, but for a little while I might only be able to get bug fixes done and not add too many new features.

    Hi, nice to see the old features back, but how come it starts at a blank slate? I had a lot of history about completed quests, dailies and abandoned from pre 2.0 and it's all gone now even though it's back to the old system. It's probably still stored in the WTF folder, any chance of getting it back?

    Was wounder why it was not showing the whole quest text? I get about half through the quest message and it gets cut off? Usually get some ASCII text at the bottom. No LUA error just that odd text i have to Disable QG to be able to read the rest of the text. This only happens on long quest text? Any thought?
