Classic Quest Log
Last Updated: Dec 24, 2018 Game Version: 8.1.0
This addon restores the old quest log with the familiar list of quests on the left and details on the right.
This addon's initial behavior is to commandeer your quest log key binding and micro button to toggle the new log. It should be a familiar enough experience once you log in.
If you decide you want to keep using the new default log alongside this addon, you can:
- Open the map via key binding (M is default key) will display the new map+quest log hybrid.
- Click 'Show Map' in the upper right of the Classic Quest Log, it will jump to the map of the quest's zone with the attached new style quest log.
- If that's not enough and you only want to use the Classic Quest Log occasionally, go into Key Bindings -> AddOns -> Classic Quest Log and set a binding to toggle this addon's window. Once a binding is set, it will revert the behavior of the default quest log binding and quest micro button to its map+quest default behavior.
There are a few minor changes from the true old quest log:
- Instead of saying (Completed) or (Daily) beside each quest name, they are now represented by icons just like the new log.
- There are other options in the Options button at the bottom of the window, such as the ability to move the window around the screen or to resize the height of the window.

Posted Mar 22, 2019Hello,
is it me or did 8.1.5 break the addons ability to show NPC side frame when clicking a quest ?,
for example taking this quest : Screenshot 1
and the same quest selected in CQL : Screenshot 2
this used to show before :p

Does that quest (if you still have it) show a portrait when you open it from within Blizzard's default map+log thing? I'm curious if some quests show a portrait when you're presented a quest to accept/decline, but cease to show one once added to your log. (Seems like it should still show the portrait, but maybe a property was missed and this quest is an outlier.)
I have a couple quests with portraits in my log and the addon is showing them.

Posted Mar 17, 2019I love this addon, it is exactly what i was looking for, but...:
- the rewards look weird in the quest window, like out of size or something
- i wish very much it had an option to autotrack when you accept a new quest

when you open QCL there is a red button "Options", there you can check 'Show resize grip' to make a grey bar appear under it, click and move the mouse to make the window bigger so all is not so squished :p
and the auto track quest used to be a setting in the wow configuration menu, now you need to write:
/console autoQuestWatch 1 (case sensitive) in your open chat window and press the Enter key + relog :)

thank you. the reply is very much appreciated. i mainly love this addon because i want to see how many quests i have in my log. i hate when i get that message "your quest log is full". now i can see: quests: 23/25 or whatever. plus when i press L i want the quest log to open, not the map. that is why i bought my keyboard with a M key, to open the map with.
Thank you for a great addon

I'll look into the 23/25 issue. It should accurately keep world quests separate from the total.
If the key binding for quests (default L) is not bringing up the addon and you want it to, go into keyboard options (esc->keyboard->addon) and confirm there's no binding association with thie addon.
When there's a binding there, the addon assumes you want to leave the default quest binding alone to do its thing; when there's no binding, the addon takes over the default quest binding. (If that makes sense.)

you misunderstood me. i guess it was my wacky English (a little bit of a language barrier). my previous reply was a praise actually. the addon dose what it suppose to do, do not worry about it. leave it as it is. (23/25 means that i have 23 quest in my log from a total possible of 25)

Posted Mar 15, 2019i have been unable to Share quests since 8.1.5 hit, just wondering if anyone else might have this issue and/or if its blizzards bug or CQL ? :)

I'm unfortunately not able to reproduce this; quests are sharing fine. I'd be curious too if anyone else is having this issue.
One way to rule out this addon is to disable it and see if sharing works while the addon is disabled.

Posted Sep 16, 2018With the way they messed stuff up in Legion and especially in BFA, I am sure glad to have this addon. Thank you! Although yeah, just seeing some comments below. World quests and other stuff does not show up in this log. Will have to see what it looks like off but turn it back on.

WQ's have mostly been restricted to the Quest tracker on your screen instead of the log, only thing that could get there are the emissary chest one's

Posted Aug 29, 2018The war campaign quests does not have a title header. It's just a lonesome quest all out on its own.
