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?

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 keep getting a error message.
"addons\beql\libs\quixote-1.0.lua:538: attempt to call global 'print' (a nil value)"
this mod is screwed up now it was perfictly fine how it was b4 chage it back not only can u not move it but the quest no longer say daily next to it or [70Y]
fix it somone or link tell me how to patch the old one
This addon shouldn't be relying on CT to move it for you. The old EQL never did.
Also, to actually get it to move (without it boomeranging back to its original position) is unlock it and then click display tracker header in CT mod.
This, alone, makes it a headache to use since your quest log needs to be moved to accommodate for more/less quests. Why you changed it from the original version has got me.
There are also old issues (mainly with multiple quests from the same NPC) that the original EQL had. No notify on completion.
That's just off the top of my head. Good luck with further development.
I use another quest log (questguru), but I love the autocomplete in this one and i'm trying to keep both.
I had to have BEQL use the "simple" view to be able to use questguru (since they both try to add their own visual effects to the quest log), and i changed this line in questlog.lua from:
beql.ConfigButton:SetPoint("RIGHT",QuestLogFrameCloseButton, "LEFT",0,0)
to
beql.ConfigButton:SetPoint("RIGHT",QuestLogFrameCloseButton, "LEFT",235,-10)
------
Is there any way to maybe add another line - an if [questguru is on] then [use my coords for options button]? Or maybe something I can do to edit the QG code to include an autocomplete feature?
------
Also, I keep getting an error saying that the questlog.lua file, on line 466, referenced local 'button' (a nil value) or something like that. It is being caused by an incompatibility with questguru. Can someone tell me what to change? I am just too inexperienced and ignorant with WoW mods to be able to track it down myself =(
------
PM me if you'd like to help me get this figured out - we can get in touch via IM or email and knock it out in a few minutes.

nice man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cool mod. Have to check it out.
A couple Screenshots...
This addon is kind of a remake of another EQL, which was not up to date with the latest patches. Thank you for posting this addon!
hello to all
\
Blah Blah Blah
some screenshots pls
why do we have to comment before downloading so umm... not cool
Couple slight things:
Despite telling it to, new quests are not automatically added to the quest tracker. Also, there is a HUGE blank space at the bottom of the tracker that doesn't fill in at all. really takes up screen realestate. Also, any chance to get the quests colored by difficulty? ((there is an option to do this, finally found it.)
Screenshot?
