About
Character Achievements is an addon that modifies the display of achievements in order to easily distinguish those earned by your current character and those earned by another character on your account. A check button is added to the Achievement Frame that allows for quick and easy switching between the styles and updates your achievement points accordingly.
Character Style
The display is broken down into 3 parts:
- Character Achievements - default display of completed achievements (red title background/border)
- Account earned Achievements - blue bordered display with slight coloration and lighting.
- Not Completed Achievements - default display of incomplete achievement.
Account-earned Style
The default display is used except:
- account-earned achievements have a blue border instead of red.
Note
- Character points for toons that are not in a guild requires a work-around due to limitations set by Blizzard. It will force an inspect with self once on each login and when an achievement is earned in order to determine the correct points.
- Account-earned achievements are considered those that have been earned by any character on your account (except your current character). It is different than Blizzard's Account-wide achievements; achievements that have a shared progress across all characters. These are the ones that have the blue title background and border.
Slash Commands
- '/ca' or '/characterachievements'
- '/ca options' or '/ca gui' brings up the options menu.
- '/ca reset' resets to default settings and button position.
- '/ca account' enables the display style for account-earned.
- '/ca character' enables the display style for character.
- '/ca unlock' unlocks the button for movement.
- '/ca lock' locks the button.
- '/ca hide' hides the button from the achievement frame.
- '/ca show' shows the button on the achievement frame.

Do you intent to update to 8.3.0?
um.. @nasapunk88 this addon is AMAZING!!! but I think it's interfering with Blizz's twitter integration. Specifically when you click the little wow symbol in the chat the twitter thing pops up but the achievement image doesn't come up so It doesn't get posted.

It looks like this:
instead of:
Seems broken in 8.2.5. Frame doesn't change. No character pane added on when I type "/ca character"
In reply to Raven_434:
I have no errors on my end. Have you tried disabling all other addons and seeing if it works then? When you open Achievement frame, on top left should be a button you can toggle to change from Account to Character points. There is no "extra" panel.
In reply to nasapunk88:
I will try that today.
In reply to Raven_434:
Ugh.
Okay, with no other addons running, it works just fine.
Shit...
Lemme see if I can figure out what is conflicting with it.
Nope...

The drop down menu is not working. Like when click "Azshara Quests" for example, it should drop down with the list of quests i need to complete in that area to finish that achievement.
In reply to Niadh024:
I've checked the drop down when clicking on the achievements and I am unable to find any problem. It all works for me and shows the list needed. Have you tried disabling all your other addons except Character Achievements and seeing if you still have a problem? Also, does the problem still happen when you disable Character Achievements? It must be some other addon being incompatible. Let me know if you figure out if its another addon and I can try fixing.
In reply to nasapunk88:
I got it to work, i figured it was when i unchecked the checkbox on top left "Account -earned" it changed the layout / style of the achievement page. That's when the drop down was not working. What i did to fix it was by going into Interface > Addons and then unchecking "Display Account-earned Achievements". After that the page stayed at the normal style when i checked or unchecked the box on the top left and the drop downs started working again.
Edit: Great Addon by the way. Thank you :)
THANKKKKSSS
Unfortunately no longer works, I would very much like to have the same order of achievements for all my characters, hate the lack of organization
Does anyone know any current ADDON for the BFA that do this?

I am getting this error whenever I Change forms on my druid. I turned off all addons and this still occurs. Anyone know how to make this stop? No idea where the curseforge project page is or would have posted there.

I believe you are referring to the 2nd pic and it happens when you compare achievements. Right click a player and go to compare achievements.
I have used this for a while. I do use the check box on the top left sometimes. But one of the screenshots shows an extra sidebar on it. I have never seen this. How do I turn that on? Does overachiever mess with it? Overachiever has a search and watch list and lets you know what you need on anything. Never seen that extra sidebar though.
Great addon that does what no other addon does. Allows you to track the achieve points shown in the guild roster and more clearly shows what achieves were completed on a different character.
Would love to see this updated. Quite a few LUA errors currently, though if you ignore those some of the functionality is still in place.
As of the BfA pre-patch, if anyone is having trouble getting this to work just on its own, go into the interface GUI (hit ESC --> Interface --> Addons --> CharacterAchievements) and toggle the "Display Account-earned Achievements".
After doing that, the checkbox appeared for me in the Achievements window, and you can continue to use this achievement normally.
This is the only addon I've used in my 10 years or so of playing where I'm tempted to learn the LUA commands just to keep this damn thing going forward....
I'd love to see this updated too!!
