Has development and support for this addon ended? Been using it for a while, but with 8.2 it throws a ton of errors and doesn't work well anymore.

Please post those, my recent login didn't give me any.

Here's one that just continues to count up. I had to uncheck the "enable work complete sound" option to get it to stop. You can see from this one that it had already generated 676 errors for this one sound file, and was still ticking up at about 20 error per second until I disabled it. I'll try to capture more as I can.
676x MonkeyQuest\MonkeyQuest-2.9.37.lua:821: PlaySoundFile Error - Invalid fileDataID for sound.
[C]: in function `PlaySoundFile'
MonkeyQuest\MonkeyQuest-2.9.37.lua:821: in function `MonkeyQuest_Refresh'

I think this is the cause.

I tried to update the path in a way another addon references similar sounds, but that didn't work either, so it looks like Blizz borked sound file overrides for now.
Ah well, disabling the <work complete> in MonkeyBuddy options resolves the error and keeps it from filling up the memory buffer.

Have used and loved this addon for years. Hope the 8.2 problems get sorted out. I had no idea how much I rely on this addon.
Please add the option to filter Legion Emissary and Pet Master Quests. These quests are being displayed by MonkeyQuest even when they are not in the quest log. I would like the option to see them for characters wanting to do Legion Emissary quests, or to not see them and still see Zone Headers
I abandoned all quests in the log, but three still appear in MQ.
Is there a way to reset MQ? Already removed, including settings, and reinstalled, but the three keep showing in MQ and not the in-game quest log.
Hi again! Haven't used the Monkey utilities for years, but am finally back.
Is there a way to set the height of the list? Mine is currently taller than the screen, so it's overlapping other display panels and I can't see the bottom of the list, since it's not scrollable.
Also, once I hide an area's quests by clicking on the header, how do I get them back?
Thanks!
why doesn't the default quest tracker hide with this addon?
Hi, thanks for this addon. I love it :)
this probably needs an update considering patch 7.2
Would it be possible to add an option to hide MonkeyQuest during pet battles? Thanks.
Not to be dissrespectfull to the owner, but is there an option to let the quest tracker title say Quests insted of MonkeyQuests? i like it plane, otther than that, this is a very nice addon, rly like it
Hi, thanks for keeping this addon up to date, I am an old fan.
I do have one little problem with it though; with quest with an item to use, I see the item in monkey quest but I cant click on it; anyone can help me with that?
I'm sorry to report that since 7.1 I have quests in the list that MonkeyQuest seems to have pulled out of thin air. They are under a header "Missing header! (quest designers)" and are weekly PvP quests, 2vs2, 3vs3, and weekly battleground.
I can click on the quests to display them, but of course I can't abort them. And Blizz's quest log does not have them.
Except for that, MonkeyQuests looks OK.
is there a way to take over the world quests & progress, from the blizzard UI and pull it into monkey quest?
As well as the popup quests that appear sometimes when leveling in legion thats not visible if you completely hide the standard blizzard quest frame?
or this might just not be something you want in the addon ?
Hiding the default tracker is not recommended since you get some following quests and can use it to track achievements etc. so what makes more sense is to disable automatic quest progress tracking. I recently noticed that this option seems to be missing from blizzard interface options, so easiest way to do it is with AdvancedInterfaceOptions. In the CVarBrowser you can easily edit wow global variables and set autoQuestProgress to 0, I hope this will help many of you which had to deal with duplicate progress trackering.
Hey Jim, thanks for this!
Is there a way for this to track world quests when I double click them?
Also, a way of automatically hiding the default tracker would be nice.
