This addon restores the old quest log with the familiar list of quests on the left and details on the right on retail servers.
Please note:
- This addon is not for Classic WoW. Classic WoW already has the classic quest log. This addon is for retail servers to restore a "classic" style of quest log.
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.
Could you maybe add Support for SorhaQuestLog ?
The "Show from Objective Tracker" Options doesnt work with it.
Thx

No promises but I'll take a look
Hello,
Could you add an option to set the scale of the addon's window?

Thank you very much!
Hello! Can you host the addon on alternative providers (like Wago that also provides revenue) other than Curse as well, please? They are going to shutdown access to their API by other addon managers and everyone who doesn't use their client won't be able to receive updates from you anymore.
In reply to SirJorb:
Does this not work?
It's also hosted on wowinterfacehttps://imgur.com/AnezPKA
In reply to gello3:
Oh, perfect! I guess WowUp just didn't know about it.
In reply to gello3:
That toggle to allow updates outside Curse/Overwolf helps some, but only if someone using WowUp has a Curse v2 API key once the Curse v1 API is deprecated (which could happen really soon, like Monday 5/16/22). Overwolf rejects a lot of requests for Curse v2 API keys, so there are many of us who will still be unable to access the API through WowUP even if 3rd party client downloads are allowed.
There's a BigWigs packager that can help make it easier to upload an addon to multiple sites such as Wago, WoWInterface, or GitHub.https://github.com/BigWigsMods/packager

From the update posted Thursday:
I'm not fluent in WoWUp, but after posting a toc fix to a dozen+ of my addons, then when I have wowinterface checked as an addon source in WoWUp, and after re-scanning folders in WoWUp since it previously couldn't see any of my addons from wowinterface, I see my addons from wowinterface now.
The BigWigs packager looks very nice, but I've already written a powershell script to handle version control, parse compatibility/version/changelog etc out of the addon, zip the addon and post it to wowinterface. I'll still post addons to curse, but I'm waiting to see how the curse v2 plays out before I commit a lot of effort in that regard. If there's an exodus away from curse to wago or wowuphub or something else I'm okay leaving curse too.
If you or anyone is still not seeing this addon on WoWUp after downloading the most recent version and rescanning folders, I'd like to hear. It could be something else I missed.
In reply to gello3:
Thank you! I did what you said and I'm now able to update Classic Quest Log in WowUp through WoWInterface.
EDIT: It looks like another option to install Classic Quest Log via WowUP is to install via URL from WoWInterface.

Got this error when trying to make group in group finder:

In reply to Moreorlessmaybe:
Interesting taint issue. This addon doesn't use CreateListing at all. I suspect there's some taint spread that's attributing the blame to this addon.
Do you tend to click quest items in the objective tracker on the right of the screen?
In reply to gello3:
It must have been LFGSpamFilter, sorry for the false alarm :)
Love this addon, I only have one request. I wish Esc would close it.
In reply to mollzorr:
Esc should close it. (Or at least, whatever key you use to open the game menu)
If scripts errors aren't enabled can you enable them and try closing it to see if you get an error? There could be an addon conflict.
/console scriptErrors 1
(change 1 to 0 to turn script errors back off)
In reply to gello3:
No error message after turning on scriptErrors.
It closes with Esc on my keyboard, but not on the button I bound to Esc (if that makes sense).
In reply to mollzorr:
Does the game menu open with the mouse-bound ESC key?
In reply to gello3:
Yes, and Esc on the keyboard, both are bound to game menu.
