World Quest Group Finder was an addon designed to find or create groups for world quests with a single click

Blizzard removed the ability to create and join groups through an addon in WoW 8.0.

Thank you for your support during Legion, we had a great time!

In reply to Grogal:

Why would Blizzard remove this functionality for addons to create groups...

Blizzard broke this addon because they noticed that a portion of the player base started abusing the grouping function of this addon for world quests to just AFK out of playing the game and still get WQ's done. So it was really the player base that screwed this addon over and got Blizzard to act in shutting it down.

I'm not sure I buy that reasoning from Blizzard. Even if it came directly from a Blue, I'm not sure I'd believe it.

R.I.P. WQGF. You where a beloved Addon and helped us all whenever we needed you.

It is sad that it is gone now.

If this addon is no longer going to be updated, can you please let us know so I can uninstall it? Thanks for your fantastic work. This addon was probably the most significant community effort of legion, and it's really sad that blizz has broken some of its core functionality.

Update me

Not much sense in updating it, since blizz denied addons' ability to create groups in Group Finder or even populate text fields with text WQGF functionality is pretty much lost completely. Just turn it off and move on.

Yea, I was hoping this addon was still able to work in some sort of way cause it was extremely helpful in getting dailies and finding groups to do stuff. Now players probably won't go through the few extra steps to make a group themselves, but guess we shall see.

I did try another add-on that does the same thing - World Quests List. You enter WQ id manually and click button to create group, and if you're searching for group addon puts that id in the search field automatically. Although not many group are created this way yet, people are still getting used to WQGF-like addons not working anymore.

Yea I hear ya. I got both Looking for Group and World Quests List and I think WQL might be catching on faster.

I'm having some problems with this addon. Despite having the "avoid PvP realms" it still keeps adding me to realms with open PvP. It's incredibly annoying. Any idea what's going on and how I can fix this?

Is there a way to stop the addon from converting my party back to a party when I convert it to a raid? Some of the WQ's, such as invasion bosses, require raids at times.
