FAQ
- General
Q:Is this addon complete ?
A:No this addon still in a beta like state, most things work and it should be usable for now, but dont except a fully functioning addon before rc1.0. This addon is here now for testing and developing it, so please download it and test it and if u find bugs post it here

Q:How can i submit a bug report
A:Much things are needed for a bug report. First if u discover a bug check the comments or the bug reporting tool on this site to see was it already reported by somebody. In the bug report please submit the following data:
- Description of the bug
- Client Locale
- How do u reproduce the bug?
- Are other addons loaded ? (see below)
- Is the bug without addons ?
- Which addon is loaded when the bug appeared (see below)

If the bug isnt there with default UI, but is there with all the addons loaded do the following to find out which addon is causing it:
1 Disable all addons
2 Check if the bug is there
3 Enable one of ur addons
4 Do 2,3 until u have all the addons loaded

- Features
Q:My 'Lock Tracker' function is grayed out and i cant move the tracker
A:CT_Core and other frame mover addons are hooking the QuestWatchFrame:SetPoint() function which makes beql unable to position the tracker where it like it to be. So if CT_Core is loaded the addons quest tracker mover functions are disabled, u cant enable them with theese addons loaded. To move the tracker u must use the other mover addon (CT_Core, MoveAnything etc.)

Q:bEQL's tracker is gone and the tracker options are grayed out.
A:If Fubar_QuestsFU the addon disables his tracker use QuestsFU's tracker.

Q:Adding new quests doesnt work
A:The 'Add new quests' function requires a perfect translation into your locale to work, without this it cant find the line 'Quest Accepted: '.. to pick up the quest name to add it to the tracker. Currently only enUS and enGB are 100% supported. The localization will be complete when the addon will be released (1.0).
Some locales for some languages are still missing, if u fell that is not good so u could write theese files yourself :). Use the localization.lua and localization-de.lua as templates. localization.lua will hold all the strings im using, and localization-de is now the best (not compelete) file written.
Keep in mind that there is no if GetLocale() == .. line in the default (localization.lua) file but in the others (see localization-de.lua) u MUST include them.

    Thank you for all the work you are putting into this. I can not use r223 due to two quest trackers on my screen, so I went back to r222, which is working fine.

    Have you checked the checkbox in options "Questlog Options" -> "Quest Progression to Party Chat"?

  • Avatar of Aoife Aoife Fri, 21 Aug 2009 02:52:29

    hmm, my Quest Progress to Chat doesn't seem to be working either, and i'm using r222. everything else seems to be working as it should! :)

    thank you for bringing this addon back!

    Will there be another update soon for fixing some other problems like QuestProgress? Its still not working.

  • Avatar of Mickman Mickman Mon, 10 Aug 2009 14:00:04

    Thanks Angelike, saving settings is now solved.

    But Quest Progression to Party Members is still not working. I also tried to disable all other addons, but it won't work.

    Hope to see a fix therefor soon.

    Update: I've just seen that's a known issue ^^

    Yes, saving settings is broken at the moment, it will fixed in the next release. if you want to fix it yourself, open beql.lua, go to line 398 and change beqlDB into beqlDBnew.

    angelike

    Edit: Should be fixed in r220
