Error Reports
Please direct all support requests to Wowace.
Before submitting error reports, reproduce the error with debugging on (in the main options window), if it's an import that you are doing, it will spam your default chat frame. I only need the last dozen or so lines of output.
Also, please be specific as to the version number of EveryQuest, WoW version, Locale (enUS, enGB, esES, etc.)
Lastly if it is a lua error (not something printed to your chat frame), provide a complete stack trace from an addon like Bug Grabber
Refrain from posting error reports to the comments section. Use a ticket instead
Localization
Wowace localization is now setup for all you world travelers! Visit the localization page to translate.
Opening the Window
To display the main quest list you have multiple options:
- If you are using the default questlog window, there will be a small button near the book icon with the letters "EQ" to toggle the window.
- If you are using a LibDataBroker display addon, such as Fortress, EveryQuest has its own launcher. Click the launcher to open the window. Right-click to open the options
- Bind the window the a key using the key bindings interface from the main menu.
- Type /everyquest
What does it do?
Quest History
As you complete quests in game, EveryQuest will keep track of which ones you have done. It also tracks which quests you've failed or abandoned so that you can easily get them again. Once you complete a quest, the date and time is saved to see when you did it. Additionally if the quest is a daily quest, it keeps a running total of how many times you've done the quest along with the most recent completion date.
Also you can query the server for quests you've completed prior to your first use of EveryQuest. Access this option from the options screen.
Quest List
EveryQuest comes with a database of quests available in game. These are browse able by quest category using the drop down menu at the top of the window. Quests in the list will change colors depending on there status (unknown, failed/abandoned, in progress, completed, turned in).
If you have LightHeaded loaded, clicking a quest will open the Lightheaded window the the quest you clicked on.
To create a quest link for insertion into the chat edit box, have the chat edit box open then shift-click the quest in the main window.
Filters
To filter the list of quests, click the Filters button on the main window or navigate to the filters window until the Blizzard Interface options. Changing these filters will update the window immediately.
Sorting
There is a default sorting of the quest list. This can be changed using the weights and order options in the options window (Click Filters or Options in the main EveryQuest window to open the options window).
Manually Changing a Quests status
To manually change a quests status, right click it in the main window and select the new status from the menu. Having a quest on ignore is different then it's status. When a quest is on ignore the status will still update when you start doing it or complete it.
EveryQuest: Quest Givers
I finished up a quest giver module that mimics the functionality of Handynotes: Quest Givers but integrates EveryQuest quest history and filtering.

Hope that helps you.
Say I wanted to group or separate all of the Ogri'la faction/area quests in the Blade's Edge Mountains zone I could either filter or highlight them a color of my choice, and/or select an icon to show to the left of the quest name and/or select them to be listed/grouped with a tag of my choice for filtering/sorting.
This functionality would add a lot of versatility and usability to the Everyquest add-on, and though I am no programmer, I would imagine that at the least, the adding a user specific filter color or icon would be somewhat simple. But then again, I know absolutely zero about that sort of thing so disregard if it is near impossible to accomplish.
I do know it would help me out a lot though, thanks for your time.
Awesome addon.
I would like to request one thing: Add an option to mark a quest as repeatable and allow us to filter repeatable quests. These are the "non-daily" and "non-weekly" repeatable quests that I am talking about. I am trying to do loremaster and they keep showing up as having an "unknown" status.
Currently, I am just ignoring them, but it would be nice if I could have filtered them from the get go instead of having to look up every quest with an unknown status.
alternatively,
1) click either the filters or options menu to bring up the addon's interface menu.
2) In the left column, the fourth and last sub-option is server query, highlight that.
3) In the new menu, click the red button for query server, and then after its done (its usually VERY quick),
4) click the other big red button for populate history, this will take 2-4 secs at least.
Yes, that's not the same thing, and I get what your saying, but from a programming stand point, there's just no reason to do that. also, it would require a lot of work to add a new variable or two to each quest and link all the chains together, and there's not a quick and automatic way to do that in this moderately lite add-on
I really love this addon. However I made a simple mistake and now can't fix it. I right clicked on my tracking and accidentally let up on "use your tracking" I'm now stuck tracking through the WOW tracker. How do I turn eq tracking back on.
Thanks!
There are so few race specific quests, (like starter zone BE or tauren quests) if your having trouble grabbing quests that are still white, just type it in wow-head, and you'll find out if its race specific quick enough. That's what I did, and i found it was less that 20 of them in the entire 3-4k quest database (although I haven't done much in north-rend yet, i did everything on horde side in azeroth and outland).
the rep quests your kinda stuck with, but there almost always zone specific that you can kinda use your head and figure it out by taking the time to research them, tedious, maybe, but it goes faster than you think if you just get into it.
My problem is that on my world map I see all quest on every zone - allso the ons i completed years ago. Is it possible to show only the quests i havnt done yet?
To do this open your settings menu, go to <Interface> choose the <Addons> tab, then scroll down to EveryQuest - press the <+> next to everyquest to open the sub-menus then choose the last sub-menu (probably named something like Query Server, I've got the German version).
On the right side you should then be able to see a button under step 1 probably named <Query Server> - press this, you should then see a message in the chat window that server is being queried. When this process is complete, then press the button under step 2 to update your database.
Depending on the amount of updates being done, your screen may freeze for several seconds, so be sure to do this process when your toon is in no immediate danger, and no one is expecting an immediate chat answer from you ;-)
