Website
Loremaster
THE WEBSITE WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT OLD VERSIONS OF THE LOREMASTER.LUA FILE! PLEASE UPDATE YOUR ADDON!

After downloading the latest version, please login and out of all your characters before uploading your file. This will ensure your achievements get correctly recorded.

The purpose of this addon is twofold. Firstly, to help create a database of quests that count towards the Loremaster achievements. Secondly, it displays that information in-game in the quest description.

On quest completion, it records whether or not the quest counts towards one of the Loremaster achievements. The saved variables can then be uploaded to a website in order to build up a list of quests that count towards the achievements (and those that don't).

Currently, the data is weak, and you should not rely on the line in the quest description to tell you if a quest counts or not. By enabling debug mode (/lm debug), you can see how many positive and negative submissions had been made at the last update. Currently, the majority of quests have no data, and of the remainder, many have only one or two submissions. This is not enough to give an accurate picture, more are needed!

To help, please upload your saved variables file to this website:
http://www.jaffa.f2s.com
I apologise for the spartan nature of the page. The list of quests is sortable and filterable as explained on the page.

The file to upload can be found at
{WoW folder}/WTF/Account/{Accountname}/SavedVariables/loremaster.lua

You could also download a little app I wrote called LoremasterSync which will upload your files and also download the latest data file to the addon.

Please leave a comment here if you wish to help out with the website or have any issues with the addon.

This is my first addon, and I used EveryQuest for a number of ideas on how to do things. Kandarz has written a great addon there, you should check it out.

Good to see someone beat me to it!

I was considering doing this as one of the many addon ideas I haven't had time to get to yet. I'm glad to see you did it, and furthermore, already have a website set up to upload data.
I'm also pleased to see that you're willing to share this data with other developers (addon or otherwise).
I'll be downloading your addon and uploading data semi-regularly.

As I'm fairly proficient in PHP, and decent in LUA, let me know if you need any help with the project! (PM please, I don't check comments very often )
