    Version: 2.2.14-50300
    by: Gregity, mrobrian
    QuestGuru is a Quest Log enhancer.

    Updated for Patch 5.3

    Features include:
    - Enhanced quest display in the log
    - Built-in announcer with customizable messages
    - Quest progress sounds
    - Custom Tracker which can be used independantly of QuestGuru, or in conjunction for full functionality
    - Localization ability. Submit yours!

    **New & Updated Localizations
    If you have a translation, please feel free to upload it on the Optional Files tab and send me a PM. Likewise if you have an update to one, please PM me.

    F A Q
    ====================
    Q. How do I post a Bug Report?
    A. Go to www.wowinterface.com and search for QuestGuru. Go to the AddOn and on the right side there is a selection called "Bugs" click on that. You will need to be signed in to WoW Interface to create a bug report.
    Note:
    Please include the version of QuestGuru you are using and copy/paste the error message you receive. Please describe what you were doing when the error happened. This will help tremendously.

    Q. How do I turn on auto-tracking of quests?
    A. Look in the options for the game itself, not QuestGuru. Under Objectives there are options to set when to track quests. QuestGuru does not duplicate these settings in its own options as it could become problematic and it is not necessary to duplicate options already available.

    Q. Where can I find a version compatible with WoW patch x?
    A. QuestGuru is supported for the current Expansion and Patch level running on the live servers. PTR versions may be supported as Alpha or Beta releases, but I offer no guarantee.
    QuestGuru ChangeLog
    ===================
    Version 2.2.14-50300 (QuestGuru)
    Version 1.5.15-50300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
    -------------
    * TOC change for patch 5.3
    * Fixed a problem in QGT_Achievements that caused the Tracker to fail (Tracker)
    * Big thanks to CMTitan who provided code to handle Scenarios that came out with MoP (Tracker)

    Version 2.2.13-50001 (QuestGuru)
    -------------
    * Added a new sound option to announce (Thank you Drizt)
    * Added a snippet of code to fix a rare QuestLog layout problem. Drizt ran into this again in MoP & kindly shared his fix for the issue.
    * Fixed a few more places where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.
    * Changed the Debug message for the objectives not returning data to be sensitive to the debug setting.

    Version 1.5.14-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
    -------------
    * Fixed another place where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.

    Version 2.2.12-50001 (QuestGuru)
    -------------
    * Blizzard API GetQuestLogLeaderBoard is failing to return information for the identified objective & quest on some quests.
    I changed the code to look for no information return and simply bypass processing for that objective after dumping some info into the chatlog.
    I've added a slashcommand to invoke the routine at will: "/qg testui1"
    For me, it's failing on "Shadow Wardens" and perhaps that's because the world tree marks are currency, not "items".
    If the quest is an event quest (get 150 marks) then the type of quest should be event and the numObjectives should be zero.

    Version 2.2.11-50001 (QuestGuru)
    -------------
    * Error being reported by some @ line 410 of QuestGuru.lua. Added some diagnostic code when text == nil

    Version 2.2.10-50001 (QuestGuru)
    -------------
    * Removed some leftover diagnostic messages

    Version 1.5.13-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
    -------------
    * Fixed a problem with the Achievement Tracking

    Version 2.2.9-50001 (QuestGuru)
    Version 1.5.12-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
    -------------
    * Both - Updated several items for compatability with Mists of Panderia (Patch 5.0.x)

    Version 2.2.7-40300 (QuestGuru)
    Version 1.5.10-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
    -------------
    * Latest revision of the Russian localization now incorporated. Thank you again StingerSoft!
    * Removed some unused code. Frame "QG_QuestLogTitleMenu"
    * Fixed the SetBindings problem that would cause all bindings to occassionally get lost.

    Version 2.2.6-40300 (QuestGuru)
    Version 1.5.9-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
    -------------
    * Made several localization changes. Enabled $substitution variables in announcer to be localized as well.
    * Incorporated a brand new localization for Chinese(zhCN). Credit to Honooon with many thanks.
    * Incorporated an updated localization for Russian(ruRU). Credit to StingerSoft with many thanks also.
    * Updated all of the localizations (even the new ones) to synchronize variable names
    * I based the updates upon the default (American) localization file.
    * I removed variables that were no longer in the base localization file (most moved to the QuestGuru_Tracer localization)
    * and added missing variables (in American)
    * We now have localizations for German, French, Russian, and Chinese (zhCN & zhTW).
    * I would really appreciate it if speakers of those languages sent me updates to them.
    * There are some new variables in the localizations that need translation!

    Version 2.2.5-40300
    -------------
    * The History button call to QuestCompletist has been fixed.

    Version 2.2.4a-40300
    -------------
    * Refixed an issue in QuestGuru_Tracker\QGT_Quests.lua where SaveBindings sometimes received an invalid value because GetCurrentBindingSet() would return other than nil, 1, or 2.

    Version 2.2.4-40300
    -------------
    * Fixed the TOC for 4.3 cata
    * MrObrien has asked that somebody pickup and work on the QuestGuru so I will try and do some updates as I can't play without this mod.
    Addon home is www.wowinterface.com and you can PM me there if you like. Gregity is the name.
    I will be making small changes to get used to the codebase before I try anything like a major update.
    * Fixed an issue in QuestGuru_Tracker/QGT_Quests.lua where SaveBindings sometimes received an invalid value because GetCurrentBindingSet() would return nil
    * No other new information has been added (yet).

    Version 2.2.3
    -------------
    * Fixes for when scrolling the quest log
    * The quest log frame will now remember where it was when moved

    Version 2.2.2
    -------------
    * Tracker achievement bug fixes and flashing for completed remote quests

    Version 2.2.1

    * Tracker bug fix that was causing game crashes

    Version 2.0 Beta 1
    ------------------
    * Incorporated History function, QuestGuru History is no longer a separate module
    * QuestGuru is now a modification of the built-in quest log, rather than a replacement
    * History is no longer stored on your computer but is retrieved from the server instead
    * Removed some features that were causing problems and slimmed down the addon to reduce memory usage
    * Upgraded to ChatThrottleLib v21

    Just wondering if you can option to hide the quest tracker when the pet battles start. Keeps getting in the way of another addon i use during the pet battles.
    Shift+L is the default hotkey to show/hide Questguru tracker. There is an option to change this in the keybindings interface under 'QuestGuru Tracker'

    Gregity seems to be away for a while and I no longer wish to keep my patch from you folks. So you can download a small update that will include support for scenarios:

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/pihqicjmfo...QGT_Quests.lua

    Place that file in the folder QuestGuru_Tracker/ in your Addons folder after you installed version 2.2.12 of QuestGuru. This will replace the tracker's code with my patched version that includes support for scenarios.

    Please let me know if you experience problems in scenarios and, in particular, challenge modes. The latter have been coded into the patch as well, but have never been tested.

    Disclaimer: this is not an official release of QuestGuru, but a temporary patch to include support for scenarios until a new version of QuestGuru is available. Whenever Gregity updates QuestGuru this patch is invalidated.
    Doesn't seem to work for me at all ... tried both 2.2.13 and 2.2.12 versions of questguru and still no go... Tried on 4 random scenarios with each version.

    Scenario's and Challenges
    I have a patch ready for Gregity to include. In my own (limited) experience it works well, so I expect not many problems with the integration. It's just a matter of time until Gregity is around again.

    For now: just enable the blizzard tracker when you do a scenario or challenge. It's not ideal, but it works.

    FIXED!
    Ok weird, but for some reason, not all files got copied over when I installed. So I deleted and reinstalled the addon which, I am happy to report, is now working again!

    I LOVE Quest Guru and have used it since you created it

    Thanks for this great addon!

    Love,
    Your fan, Szyarah

    Are you seeing the addon in your addon list at char select?
    The addon is both visible AND selected at char select. However, the addon is NOT showing up in-game, either functionally or in the list of addons accessed by pressing ESC.

    Fires over Skettis
    While doing this quest, when I click on the Skyguard Blasting Charges icon that is in the QuestGuru Tracker, I see the error below. If I click on the same icon in my bag or the icon in the QuestClicks bar, no error.

    Code:
    [ADDON_ACTION_FORBIDDEN] AddOn "QuestGuru_Tracker" tried to call the protected function "UseQuestLogSpecialItem()".
!BugGrabber-r188\BugGrabber.lua:587: in function <!BugGrabber\BugGrabber.lua:587>
<in C code>
FrameXML\WatchFrame.lua:1427: in function "WatchFrameItem_OnClick"
<string>:"*:OnClick":1: in function <string>:"*:OnClick":1

Locals:
nil
    Thank you

    Edit: the next time I logged on and tried this, it worked, and has worked just fine since.

    Currency Crises
    The latest update is out. It appears that the bug is limited to quests which have an objective which is a currency. Various places have these and you can look at the messages below to see.

    If you had one of the "offending" quests in your log, you would get this error irregardless if you were doing that quest or not.

    I had put in a work-around a patch ago and that stopped it from dying but left some additional diagnositcs to get the scale of the problem. With this patch I eliminated the diagnostic messages (now sensitive to an undocumented debug setting).

    Drizt gave me several fixes for issues regarding the renaming of Party API calls and I updated the several places where those were. Drizt also gave me a "Job's Done" sound from WC3 so I included that as well. You can find it in the drop downs in QG Sounds options panel.

    Really?? The quest you need to collapse is the one identified on questLogTitleText parameter.

    I collapsed the whole firelands header and the debug message was still showing. By the way I personally think the idea of a debug option is a good idea, IDK maybe add it as a toggleable option?
