HandyNotes
Handy Notes for your maps. This addon is intended to be a small and simple framework for showing notes on your map.
Use /handynotes to access options.
You can add notes to the maps in 3 ways:
- Alt-RightClick on the world map to add a note.
- Use "/hnnew" without the quotes to add a note at your current location.
- Use "/hnnew x,y" without the quotes to add a note at location x,y on your current zone's map.
HandyNotes supports plugins that other authors can write to display their own set of notes on the map. See this link for a list of such addons: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/search?search=handynotes

Posted Jun 23, 2026Thank you @Xinhuan for updating the addon. I know it's hard to prioritize everything, don't let the negative commenters get to you; you provide a great addon that is over a decade old and used by millions of people, as well as utilized by many other addons. I appreciate the hard work you do.

Posted Jun 21, 2026I don't doubt that however, this was not updated for 12.0.5 either, and according to this person's profile, they were active on their account three days ago. So, process of elimination, doesn't appear that updating it is a priority, rude people or not. Guess I'm gonna have to start scouring for alternatives.

Posted Jun 16, 2026Actually, they have 0 responsibility to keep it updated. If I was the creator and read your entitled, rude and ungrateful comment I wouldn't update it.

Posted Apr 28, 2026Now you ask twice.......and....no answer.
So no update for 12.0.5..........
It*s sad, there are so many other ADDONS that use this as BASIS, I think they all wait for a Update.

Posted May 7, 2026@vilogity It still works as we're used to. You could bump the .toc to 120005 or "load out of date addons"

Posted Mar 27, 2026Is there a way to hide the profession quests for the professions you don't have from the world map? I've been trying for a couple of days now and I don't know if I'm just not reading a setting correctly.

Posted Mar 25, 2026Is there a way to hide quests that aren't available to us or aren't available to us yet? All the profession quests show up on the map when I have this addon enabled, even though I have my 2 professions and am already doing quests for them. There are also multiple regular quests in each zone that show up on the map but aren't available to me. Thanks.
