HandyNotes
Handy Notes for your maps. This addon is intended to be a small and simple framework for showing notes on your map.
Use /handynotes to access options.
You can add notes to the maps in 3 ways:
- Alt-RightClick on the world map to add a note.
- Use "/hnnew" without the quotes to add a note at your current location.
- Use "/hnnew x,y" without the quotes to add a note at location x,y on your current zone's map.
HandyNotes supports plugins that other authors can write to display their own set of notes on the map. See this link for a list of such addons: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/search?search=handynotes
Hello,
I'd like to know how can I load my profiles from one account/pc to the other, I copy/pasted HandyNotes folder to the other pc but file with profiles is not there, I guess?
Thank you in advance.
If you want to transfer the notes that you have made to another installation of the WoW game software, or to another account in the same WoW game folder, then you must copy each file that has "Handy Notes" in the name, from the Saved Variables folders that are in the WTF folder, which is in the World of Warcraft folder (where the game software is installed).
For example, on my computer, the Handy Notes data is stored in the following file:
D:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\account_number\realm_name\Saved Variables\HandyNotes.lua
The account_number is a string of digits and symbols that is shown on your computer as the name of a folder in that path. The realm_name folder has the same name as the realm (server) in which your Player Character is located in the game.
Does this addon contain pre-written notes, or is it for writing your own notes? Or both? Hard to tell from the description what it is that this addon is for, unless you are familiar with Cartographer_Notes (and I am not).
thx so much for updating! <3
You can find the latest version (r230) released on 06/05/2013 that is updated for WoW 5.3.0 at:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/handynotes/files/121-r230/
It's working with Handy Notes Vendor at the moment and now I'm going to try it with some other Handy Notes Addons and see if it works with them or if the other addons have bugs or not. If I remember I will post my findings here.
@Xinhuan Please post the latest version here so that I can use the Curse client and don't have to manually install and update your releases! Thank you for this awesome addon!
Peace to all!
Is this addon still supported? I can not find any other that comes close to this one. Please advise
Is there a way to turn the notes off on my mini map and only show them on my world map?
That site doesn't have anything later than what's here, and while it's generally been working fine I'm starting to have issues with notes from one map showing up on another. Don't know if it's something that changed with 5.x or not. Reloading the UI doesn't fix it either.
Aisenfaire is correct. That is where the latest updates are. You just need to choose the Alpha versions (with an "A") after the version number.
If you simply hit "Download", it will default to the release version of the addon, which is the last stable version of the addon. So unfortunately if you want to use this addon, you need to be using an alpha version for now. Hopefully a release (stable) version will come out one day. I hope that helped. :)
From http://www.wowace.com/addons/handynotes/files/
Last Alpha was 9-29-12
Updates are at http://www.wowace.com/addons/handynotes/
This addon was great while working as intended. Obviously it is not being kept upto date. Just wanted to say Thank you for the time and effort given in the past. It was a wonderful addon in it's prime.
Update would be nice, This addon is great!!
Anyone know of a macro that would work to put a handynote at your current location without having to do the dialog box? Would like to be able to just push a button and have the spot marked with the parameters I specify in the macro. Any ideas?
can u update for mop pls :P ty
Would like to see a Treasure of Pandaria :)
It appears that HandyNotes with the Lost and Found addon breaks Carbonite.
Mousing over a zone won't reveal it with your plugin :(
Sorry for the spam, this forum really needs a spoiler/code tag

There's an updated version on Wowace at:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/handynotes/
Right side, under 'recent files', there's one updated as of 10/8/12.
It doesn't work either. I can't get my notes anymore even if I disable Mapster.
Well, it is working for me flawlessly, so you have an other problem. Maybe BugGrabber+Bugsack or Swatter can find an error with one of your addons...
