Troubleshooting

Addon Not Loading

Check that the folder is named exactly Scribey
Verify the .toc file is present and readable
Try /reload to reload the UI

Cards Not Being Detected

Check /scribey status or /sb status to see if the addon is active
Ensure you're crafting the correct MoP Darkmoon Cards
Try /scribey export or /sb export to manually trigger export

Data Location

The saved data can be found at:

World of Warcraft\_classic_\WTF\Account\[ACCOUNT]\SavedVariables\Scribey.lua

Optional Dependencies

For the best experience, consider installing:

LibStub - Core library framework
LibDataBroker-1.1 - Data broker system
LibDBIcon-1.0 - Minimap icon management
SexyMap - Advanced minimap customization

These libraries are automatically detected and used if available, but Scribey works fine without them.
