Cartographer is a modular, lightweight, and efficient framework for manipulation of the world map.
Battlegrounds : allows viewing of battlegrounds outside of the zone.
Coordinates : adds coordinates to the bottom of the world map of the player and the cursor.
Foglight : Shows unexplored areas on the map. replacement for MozzFullWorldMap or Unexplorer. Much more efficient, though.
Group Colors : turns all your party's and your raid's POIs into circles colored based on class, and shows a number on them based on their raid group.
Guild Positions : show all guild members that also have Cartographer.
Instance Loot : shows loot tables when you click a boss note
Instance Maps : shows maps of instances.
Instance Notes : adds boss notes and such to instance maps.
Look 'n' Feel : allows you to change the transparency, position, and scale of the world map.
Notes : lets you put notes on the map, similar to MapNotes.
POI : store notes that city guards point you to.
Professions : automatically tracks herbs, minerals, and treasure.
Waypoints : allow you to make waypoints and have a big arrow point the way.
Zone Info : on hovering over a zone, it will show the levels of the zone, the instances in the zone, their levels, and the number of men the instance is made for (e.g. 5-man, 40-man).

Updated to latest version from wowace
Herbalism, Mining, and Noteshare modules have been moved out to separate downloads.
For the last few updates, since patch 2.4.1, corpse waypoints have not appeared. There's no longer even an option for them in the Cartographer menu. What happened? Did you remove them on purpose?
Downloaded the new version this morning and ran into an error:
LibGuildPositions-1.0\libguildpositions-1.0.lua:48. Cannot find a library instance of "CallbackHandler 1.0"
EDIT: NVM, went and downloaded latest from wowace and it's okay now.
i have 1 problem. Im using tomtom and when click coordinates that green dot not goes that area where i am. its going to minimap and i can see it worldmap when i look all areas but when i click that area where i am (barrens) green dot is not there...
Its working if i disable cartographer and use game own map system.
Originally posted by briand Seems like a bug in Cartographer or one of the plugin's .....zone map works fine up until I open my world map then it goes grey....installation of cartographer started it...curious if there's a fix
I figured out where the bug is...but not sure what coding is causing it....the moment I turn off Foglight the problem goes away and the zone map no longer darkens after opening the world map

Originally posted by sogortheogre Don't seem to be working for me, when I click on them in the dropdown menu, nothing happens.
I have the same problem. Likewise, the mining/herb nodes aren't recorded for me, either. I'd switched over from MetaMaps because it looked like Cartographer was supported, but...
If these problems are addressed then I'd definitely like to know if there's a way to import/save the information from Metamaps.
Are none of the plug-ins for this working? I downloaded it for the first time yesterday on the advice of a guildie... but I can't get any of the plug-ins working.
It's also not tracking herbs, etc.. even tho I have every single option turned on.
Admitted total noob - I tried addons (actually, just Cartographer) for the first time in 2.3. Now I want to update - but it occurs to me that if I do, I'm going to lose all my little notes and map icons that I've so carefully placed, as well as my herbalism nodes. I've searched for Cartographer FAQs (the Ace page leads to a random message, but no FAQ: http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Cartographer/FAQ), I've read forums - everyone is talking about bugs, but no one walks through the actual update. And for all those who will flame me with using Ace updater, I've read enough horror stories to believe I ought to update my single addon by myself.
So can anyone give me some guidance? Is there a folder I need to save? Thanks.
One problem I've noticed and after some investigation found the culprit..
Foglight needs updating.. the problem is when its enabled it causes the miniature "Zone Map" (shift+M) to blank out like you haven't explorered anywhere.
This problem can be replicated by simply enabling the Foglight mod if it isn't already, then just open and close the world map for it to wipe the zone map data.
Could you please look into updating Foglight as its too useful to lose.
Other than that, Great Addon thanks. Keep up the good work!!
I just downloaded this and it says that it works with 2.4 and I can't get the waypoints to work I have no other mods in the folder except whatever blizzard puts in there. Anyone else having problems?
What happened to corpse waypoints
