NotesUNeed v6.60.30300 - Adrill of Eonar (US)
Originally created by Telic of Dragonblight (EU)
___________________________________________________
UPDATE: Fixed an additional issue that was discovered with the quest tracker.
Updated for Patch 3.3. I'm not sure how much time I will have to put new features in to this mod, but I plan to keep it operational for the foreseeable future, as I've found it to be a wonderful mod that I can't live without. Many thanks to the effort that Telic put in to creating and maintaining this mod while he was playing WoW.
Additionally, if anyone else would additionally be interested in working on maintaining this mod with me, I am looking in to setting NuN up on a repository to allow multiple contributors to work on it. PM me if you want to get involved.
AJ (Adrill of Eonar/US)
Feature-rich, searchable Notes database with many automated features, and additional NuN tooltips for viewing note details.
Make Contact Notes on other Players, or General Notes on anything else.
This AddOn is for making your own custom notes on players, and quests, and items, etc. and does not come with any pre-made notes.
It does provide an Export and Import Feature for sharing of sets of notes, or publishing of note databases.
There is no longer an "Alternative" version of NuN, and the default Modifier keys for creating notes from Container Items and Hyperlinks is now simply "<Alt>-Left Mouse Click". For anyone unhappy with this key-Combo, then they can now specify their own via the NotesUNeed Options frame.
Compatible with Titan via : TitanNotesUNeed

At this point Telic is no longer doing any development with the project and I've mostly taken over it for maintenance. I am trying to find developers who can work with me on new features or feature enhancements since I don't have the time right now to do new development on the mod, but if I get a chance or if I find people who want to work with me, I will put this on a to-do list to be handled. Thanks for the feedback.
Originally posted by Petrah Gonna post this again...
Is there any way to make the buttons stay put after disabling the addon and then re-enabling it? I really love your addon and advertise it any chance I get, but this little quirk is such a pain to deal with.
I use ACP to make a raiding set of addons that I use... I turn off all addons that do not pertain to raiding, and then turn them all back on when I'm done. Every time I turn your addon back on, it's moved back to the top of my screen.
Can you make it keep it's previous location after disabling and re-enabling?

Never mind. I was looking at the wrong copy of my source. I think I found what I need, though more info on what you were doing at the time would be helpful.
More Info: It appears that this is probably related to the quest log and the friends list being open at the same time. Does this make any sense in the context of the mods that you have?
well something is doing a who when i log in dont know what addon it is yet
but to answer no the friends list and quest log whas closed and its the current version 6.60 got the error right away when i logged in so might be something to do with that /who that pops up for some reason
i use carbonite map addon + its quest log as well

I'll just tell you "thanks" for updating this mod. I can't really make addons, and I really love this addon, so for you to pick up where Telic left off, is really great! I hope you get some help with it, because this is one addon, that shouldn't end up old and discontinued.

Any chance for fixing this?
At least it seems working now!
I had an e-mail on the 10th of December about NuN, which I replied to, not sure if that is you AJH16, and if it is you then I'm not sure what else you are waiting for - perhaps my reply didn't get through your spam filter...
No e-mails recently about NuN.
[Note that I'm not revealing the e-mails of people who have contacted me, as they may not want private addresses published on these public pages; And they may not be you.]
If you are having trouble contacting me, then try PM'ing me on this web site, and I will reply to that.
However, as far as I am concerned, people have Carte Blanche to take my work and modify & release it under a new name if they so wish. Not sure if WoWInterface need special permission from me before they will allow a fan's update....
Originally posted by AJH16 Second update, I have successfully fixed NuN for 3.3. For the technical, you need to do two things.
First, search through the NotesUNeed.lua and comment (put -- at the beginning of the line) every line or branch condition that is based on something containing LFM.
Second, open the NotesUNeed.xml and remove all LFM button overrides.
Striping all this out will remove the LFM integration allowing the rest of the mod to function without crashing.
I have an e-mail in to Telic and will post my code as a 3.3 version as soon as I have access to do so.
