SimpleQuestAnnouncer

Description

SimpleQuestAnnouncer is a lightweight World of Warcraft addon that automatically announces your quest progress to your group.

Whenever a quest objective changes (for example Wolves slain: 3/8), the addon posts a short message in your party or raid chat, so your teammates always know where you stand without you having to type anything. When every objective of a quest is done, it also announces Objectives completed.

Features

• Automatic announcements of quest objective progress.
• Announcement when all the objectives of a quest are completed.
• Sends to Raid chat when you are in a raid, Party chat when you are in a party.
• Local notifications when a quest is accepted or removed.
• No announcement of the objectives that already existed when you log in, only new progress is reported.
• Updates are batched, so a burst of quest log events produces no spam.
• Simple on/off switch, saved between sessions.
• No dependency, no configuration window.

Message format

[Quest Title] Objective text
[Quest Title] Objectives completed

Example:

[Wolves of the Forest] Wolf Pelt: 5/10
[Wolves of the Forest] Objectives completed

Usage

The addon works out of the box: join a group, progress in your quests, and the announcements are sent automatically.

Slash commands

Command	Effect
/sqa on	Enable announcements
/sqa off	Disable announcements
/sqa status	Show whether announcements are enabled

The enabled/disabled state is stored in the SimpleQuestAnnouncerDB saved variable and persists across sessions. Announcements are enabled by default.

Notes:

• The first scan after login or a loading screen only records the current state of your quest log; it does not announce anything.
• If you disable the addon with /sqa off, nothing is sent to your group.
