... if none of that works try un-tracking everything then reload your UI.

Turn off EQL3 - un-track all your quests, reload your UI, then re-enable EQL3 and then try tracking some quests.

Are you running ShaguQuest or EQL3?

Did it, nothing did work :( 

I am runnig EQL3.

What version are you running? Also, questie doesn't have any control over the EQL3 tracker

@Jebo AWESOME! That was going to be my last and final suggestion. If you're moving around between different servers you should be deleting the contents of your WDB folder anyway. This is the games cache and it caches everything that comes from the server so conflicts happen quite frequently and are the #1 source for reported issues with addons not working correctly. Deleting your WTF folder isn't really ideal since it contains all YOUR personal settings for everything from chat window settings and placement to individual addon settings and cache data that they collect. It's usually OK for you to leave it alone since it creates a separate folder for each server / account / character that is created. For Questie specifically it stores which quests you've completed. Wiping out your WTF folder will make all those quests re-appear and you'd have to spend some time Shift+Clicking each quest you know you've completed. We built in slash commands that will wipe out your Questie settings without wiping out your completed quests. Just type /questie in game to see the list of available commands.

That's not entirely true anymore. :) There are some EQL3 CVAR's that are deliberately switched off because they conflict with Questie or cause duplicate info to appear. Most notably, Quest objective tooltips. ;) Here is a list of CVAR's that are forced off when the QuestieTracker is enabled:

QuestlogOptions[EQL3_Player].MobTooltip = 0;
QuestlogOptions[EQL3_Player].ItemTooltip = 0;
QuestlogOptions[EQL3_Player].RemoveCompletedObjectives = 0;
QuestlogOptions[EQL3_Player].RemoveFinished = 0;
QuestlogOptions[EQL3_Player].MinimizeFinished = 0;

The first two are obvious.

RemoveCompletedObjectives - Since Questie packages each quest and their objectives into a single "button" that is inserted into the tracker, individual Objectives can't be hidden and for some quests it would cause the entire quest to be hidden even if there are still objectives to be collected/done.

RemoveFinished - Prevents the ability to show the Arrow so you can find the Quest Finisher. Most folks like being able to click on a completed quest and know where to turn it in without having to look at the worldmap.

MinimizeFinished - This is very similar to RemoveCompletedObjectives.

The only way to disable Quest Sorting is to use another tracker. You can use either the Default WoW QuestTracker or EQL3's QuestTracker. Just simply run this command in game and it will switch you over: /questie tracker

I don't recall if EQL3's QuestTracker can be disabled like Questies can so if you want to use the WoW QuestTracker (Why?!?! It's ugly) then you might have to fully disable EQL3. NOTE: If you disable the Questie QuestTracker then you'll loose the ability to use the Questie Arrow.

There is a Version check in Questie - if the versions are different it runs:

/questie clearconfig

- clearconfig: Resets all Questie settings and removes stale quest database entries (will not delete completed quests).

This would have re-enabled the Quesite QuestTracker... This clean up prevents incompatibilities from older versions polluting new or removed functionality.

Good morning all,

 

Ok so Questie has been annoying me due to not being able to move it. I know that shift + ctrl = drag, and it worked for me previous times. However, I am unable to drag it now. It seems like the tracker is locked in place. I googled, and looked at the notes on github. Maybe I am blind, but it didn't jump out at me.  So basically I would like to move my quest tracker (unlock it?). 

 

Thank you for your time,

Bushiden.

 

 

[Mr_Rosh 7]

Idk if it does any difference, but it's actually CTRL+SHIFT not Shift+Ctrl.

[Bushiden 0]

Wulf, 

Thanks for your reply. I tried that also. I tried it in different order. No luck. I am sure it's going to slap me in the face when I see it. 

[Dyaxler 9]

/questie cleartracker

This will wipe the position info for the tracker and drop it in the middle of your screen. There might be a hidden UI element that is sitting on top of Questie preventing you from moving it.

[Bushiden 0]

I will go ahead, and try that. Thank you Dyaxler. 

 

Edit: Dyaxler, I went ahead and tried moving my mini map, but that wasn't it. I made my first alt, and it actually works perfectly fine on him. I wonder if my main character has a corrupt profile in the wtf folder. 

Thank you all for your time.

[Dyaxler 9]

So running '/questie cleartracker' didn't move the tracker to the middle of your screen?

[laytya 16]

i think its not questie tracker =)

[Dyaxler 9]

It might be like he said... if one of his SavedVaribles files is corrupted then it would prevent the tracker from moving. If '/questie cleartracker' doesn't move his tracker to the middle of his screen then that is generally an indication of user saved data being locked.

[Bushiden 0]

Thanks for your response Dy, and Laytya. 

Yeah it wouldn't reset to the middle after using the cleartracker command. However, when I deleted the Questie! addon, and downloaded the newer version it worked right away on my main character. Now I am a happy camper =). 

Problem is solved now. 

Thank you.

Hey Aero, so idk what happen on Elysium, but it,s seem that questie took a TOTAL nuke, and now every quest are shown(well the one that are available that is)

So maybe questie was working as intended... but it didn't respond automaticly?

Also, it would be nice to disable/enable event quest (festival one and etc)

Yeah, this actually affected every addon's settings/saved data. The problem is when elysium changed the server names, the addons don't realize that automatically. You can manually fix it by renaming your folders in "<wow folder>/WTF/Account/<accountname>/," in there rename "Elysium PvP" to  "Anathema" etc.

[Dyaxler 9]

I'm quite surprised that we're not getting more complaints about quests suddenly showing up all over their screen. :D When I moved Questies settings from a per server to a per character format the saved variables makes no reference to [accountname][server] so doing what Aero says should restore Questie.

There is no CLEAN way to hide all the holiday quests. Most of them are level 60 quests with a minimum level of 1 in the database. You'll just have to Shift-Click complete them to hide them. :( The new database in Questie 4.0 has Quest Type flags such as, Faction, Profession, Repeatable etc. Should make it a lot easier to hide and show those kinds of quests in the future.

now no longer show the quest in tooltips I tried /questie tooltips not working.

Where there is a will, there is a way. The information needed to know which quest belongs to a holiday is found in the ZoneOrSort field. This is normally used to determine which category quests are sorted to in the quest log. Which value represents which holiday you can see here (for negative values). After that you need information about when which holiday is active and then show quests only during the according time period.

[Dyaxler 9]

If Questies current database were in this format sure. :) Currently these are the only keys that are available to us...

['name']
['startedType']
['finishedType']
['startedBy']
['finishedBy']
['level']
['questLevel']
['rq'] --> requiredQuest
['rr'] --> requiredRaces
['rc'] --> requiredClasses
['rs'] --> requiredSkill

I've only briefly looked at the new database that Aero designed. He says he has all that stuff figured out for v4.0.

[toniplavna 20]

Can you please tell me how i can remove quests markers that I finished? I tried with max min level command but didnt help. Tried reinstaling, clearing wdb, nothing. And Im using latest version.

[Gehere 8]

CTRL-SHIFT-left click on a displayed exclaimation marker ->  !

[toniplavna 20]

Thanks. I thought that will be automatic thing when you finish the quest. 

[toniplavna 20]

Also how to set that NPCs only show me a quest that I can take, not few levels below? /questie setminlevel 0 ???
