This is a FuBar/Ace2 Dailies Quest Tracker Addon, that will keep track of the dailies that you have done for the day. If you opt out having FuBar it'll attach itself to the Mini-Map. All libraries are included.
You can track multiple toons (Horde/Alliance) on a realm to keep track of dailies done on all of them.
You can display your daily counts through the FuBar icon or text counts.
Checks your professions and will show dailies that only you can do.
Filter out groups you have no interest in watching.
Groups can automatically unfold when you are in the area of the quest.
Clicking on a quest title, will paste the quest link in the chat-box. Also, you can then shift-click on the quest title to show you a waypoint to the quest giver if specific addons are installed.
Shows reputation from factions and will color the faction based on your current standings. And you can choose how to display faction status in the headers.
Show Me the Money! will list all the monetary values of dailies so you can do the ones that give you the most gold.
If you have any announcement addons (Scrolling Combat Text, Blizzard UI, Parrot) you can have it announce to those scrollers.
------- ** UPDATE Version 3.0 11/3/8**
Turned off some debugging and 'Hopefully' fixed the Holiday issues.
------- ** UPDATE Version 3.0 11/2/8**
Control-Left-Click a quest title will now open the quest in the Quest Log frame if you have the quest.
Random Dailies are now saved per day and will reset when the Dailies are reset (This may be wonky, as I don't have a Horde toon. So they may show wrong in some instances, If you use Alliance and Horde with dailies.)
Add a whole slew of WotLK daily stuff, but is not complete yet. (But you can't see it anyways, till you install the X-Pac. Muahahaha)
Removed some Libs (using my own method) and updated some Libs.
Removed the FuBar checks so people not using FuBar should not get errors anymore. (This is cause tooltips to not scale properly, not that I think it will be. Who scales there's Tooltips to 200%, huh?)
Probably some more stuff, but can't remember. Been doing to much on this addon for to long. LOL.
-------
**When loading the ADDON for the first time**
Everything will be set to defaults values, including displaying the dailies which are now shown by expansion. To turn on the dailies for The Burning Crusade or Wrath of the Lich King (when released) you need to select them in the Expansions option in the menu.
** BUGS/ISSUE First remedy **
IF you have any issues, PLEASE, PLEASE delete your DailiesQuestTracker.lua and DailiesQuestTracker.lua.bak and start fresh before reporting any issues, there are numerous changes to get it up and running for 3.0+.
Please don't ask about localizations atm, I want to make sure everything is running smoothly and squash any bugs/errors before moving onto localizing, if needed. With that, this mod only works with the ENGLISH client.
Change Log - Dailies Quest Tracker
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.5.1 8/4/8 **
Fixed coordinates for Horde quest givers, that where throwing errors for Horde characters.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.5 7/30/08 ** ** Alot has changed/implemented so consider this a rough BETA **
Quest Givers:
You can now look to see where the Quest Giver is for all the quests, helpful to those that are new to dailies. This can be turned on/off (There location info) for those more experienced and not needing this.
Quest Waypoints:
If you have TomTom or Cartogrpher_Waypoints addons installed (current ones I've added support for, don't really know any others), you can shift-click the quest title and if you are in the zone it'll give you that nice arrow to the show you the way.
Money filtering:
You can now filter the amount of gold from Show Me The Money!, so you can only see the dailies in the dropdown tooltip that are in the range of gold you are wanting to do.(I.E. filter out quests that give between 1g - 10g).
AceComm Delay:
You can now set your own delay when joining AceComm (Default is 20 seconds and can be set upto 1 minute), so it doesn't inject itself into Channel 1 for those having slower load times.
Quests Accepted:
The Dailies Quest Tracker Tooltip will now show how many quests you've accepted within a group. I.E. [4/2/18] is [4 Completed/2 Accepted/18 Total Can Do]
Multiple Characters:
Track dailies on all your characters that are on a particular realm (no cross realms atm, due to differences in time-zones. It is possible, but I'll tackle that when the time comes). Each character will need to visit a quest giver at least once for DQT starts tracking the quests for them. It will show in the tooltips when two characters are known for a given quest.
Time Formats:
Time formats can now be displayed in Standard AM/PM or 24 Hour.
Screenshots have changed to reflect to look/feel of all the changes.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.2.07 6/11/08
You can now display faction status and colorization in the group header of the DQT tooltip for easier reference.
You can move factions to inactive or collapse the group header in the reputation pane and DQT will still grab faction information correctly.
LibAbacus-3.0 is no longer used, as I'm formatting my own values.
Removed the below level 70 [DISCLAIMER] in the DQT tooltip, as it states it in other parts of the mod and frees space.
Removed the Random Dailies [MESSAGE] in the DQT tooltip, as it will automatically populate if you have the feature on.
All daily quests now have there own [Quest Link]. You can insert this link into the chat frame by Shift-Left-Clicking a quest title from DQT.
Many new things are formatted with icons, to make things more uniform with the Blizzard interface.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.2.05 5/20/08 TESTING**
You can now turn communications on/off to your liking if you don't want to send and receive dailies. When you first load the mod, communications will be completely OFF, and you will need to turn it on manually. Once this is done, you don't need to set it again unless you want to turn it back off.
Show Me The Money! Now sorts by monetary value and then quest name, so it's a little easier to read.
If you have any issues with this update PLEASE delete for Dailies.lua & Dailies.lua.bak saved variables and test again before reporting issues. There is some new data saved that may interfere with your old data.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.2.04 5/19/08 TESTING**
Joining the AceComm channel should now insert itself into the 1st AVAILABLE channel and will announce it when it has done so. PLEASE make sure you have all your CUSTOM channels to your liking before loading the mod in-game as you can't change the AceComm channel numbering.
Fixed errors when trying to accept quests from non Random Daily quest givers.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.2.03 5/16/08 TESTING**
AceComm should now default to using the next available channel then trying to insert itself into Channel 1.
You no longer have to accept a quest to populate the Random Daily info, just talking to the associated quest giver and it will grab the quest info needed. (This doesn't accept the quests for you, it's just populates the Random Dailies info)
Show Me The Money! shows the monetary value of all dailies so you can hunt out the dailies that give you the most gold. This will also show if you've done the quest already by highlighting it in green.
If a Random Daily is known (from you or gathered from a user), you can click the text and it will paste the daily with the associated info [Quest and Location] into the chat box, so you can let others know what the daily is without having to type it out. If you have the quest it will provide a [Quest Link], if you don't it'll be simple text.
Fixed some of the changes Blizzard made to some daily rewards
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.2.02 5/14/08 TESTING**
Think I may have got the libraries (Sink, Abacus) updated properly. *crossing fingers*
Fixed the channel list from permanently sticking to the AceComm channel.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.2 5/13/08 TESTING**
Updated some libraries to hopefully fix some of the errors popping up (Abacus, Sink)
You can now grab the random dailies from other users and will populate in the DQT tooltip when they are known by others, this HEAVILY requires other users of the mod on your realm to work properly and MAY BE BUGGY while I get it all worked out. It shouldn't affect you using the mod and can be hidden under the options. This does REQUIRE you to join the AceComm channel and is done automatically if you have available channels. There should be no overhead as I'm pinging each other at a slow response and there is a built in throttle by blizzard to keep the spamming down.

Removed some more localization stuff scattered about, sorry thought I got it all.

------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.03 4/5/08 **
Removed localizations as it was causing numerous errors, hopefully soon I can get a better handle on how they work. So for now, this mod will only work on English Clients. Sorry for the inconvenience.
------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.02 4/5/08 **
Adjusted some tooltip text
Removed the check for Cooking in tradeskills, so you now can filter the group if not interested in the dailies
Fixed quest 'WANTED: A Warp Splinter Clipping' not being tracked correctly
-------- ** UPDATE Version 2.4.01 4/02/08 **
Changed the FuBar Icon back to Static ones, as people where having issues with the Dynamic one.
Reputation Icon in the rewards tooltip, now uses the Tabard of that faction
If Auto Unfolding is used, it will only happen when you are not hovering with-in the DQT tooltip. Once you leave the tooltip, Auto-Unfolding will resume like normal
Added a slash command for those not using Fubar to make it visable again if hap-hazzardly disabled. /DQT or /Dailies will give you the list. ('/DQT Standby' is what turns the mod on/off FYI)
Added Blood for Blood and Blast the Gateway back into the FINAL dailies list
Reset times are now pulled from the server opposed to using my own timing. With that, there is a glitch currently that the times cannot be pulled correctly sometimes (Known bug from Blizzard). This has no impact on using the mod itself, just for the visual in the tooltip.
BEFORE REPORTING BUGS
Delete your (Dailies.lua and Dailies.lua.bak) saved variables first and/or run this mod by itself to make sure there isn't erroneous data saved or conflicts with other mods.
Of course you are going to repeatedly see *THAT* particular variable name coming up as "a NIL value" (i.e.: empty)... because Blizz up and arbitrararily changed its name to something else... but we cannot outright accuse them of purposely attempting to break a fine add-on like DQT by doing so, noooo, of course not. But what 'good' purpose could changing this single variable name have, over all, in their WoW-coding?
Conspiracy Theories 101-R-US
P.S. Now all someone has to do is find the new keyword so we can search/replace that badpuppy for overselves and hopefully get this add-on back online!
... worked fine until the update yesterday and then ...

Greetings, one and all... am I alone in this 'school of thought', or do I see others peeking out from the shadows from behind the trees over there...?
Blizz seemingly(?) goes out of their way to *+=-BREAK-=+* the best add-ons out there with every single *cough*update*cough* patch.
Hey, I don't mind so much that major changes happen and *that* causes the ''format'' of some things to change... but I have seen where the Blizz_geeks changed two different words that seemingly(?) had no other affect (i.e.: what could it possibly have benefited the WoW-code, overall, to have changed those two words) than to *+=-BREAK-=+* Cartographer which had recently went through its own update.
A quick search/replace of Cartographer's *.lua of those two words with their updated form, and *BANG!* Cartographer worked just fine. If I am not mistaken, these words referenced GOLD, but there were two different names for doing so. No need to change the silver and/or copper reference that immediately followed each gold reference line, just the one type of currency. WUWT?
Things that make you go, 'Hmm...'

Great mod, glad it was finally updated for Wrath. One issue, it worked fine until the update yesterday and then all of a sudden when ever I turn in the first daily of the day (doesn't matter which), I get the following error:
Date: 2008-11-05 20:17:15
ID: 18
Error occured in: Global
Count: 1
Message: ...e\AddOns\DailiesQuestTracker\DailiesQuestTracker.lua line 768:
attempt to concatenate global 'DailiesNumberDate' (a nil value)
Debug:
Ace2\AceEvent-2.0\AceEvent-2.0.lua:299: TriggerEvent()
Ace2\AceEvent-2.0\AceEvent-2.0.lua:910:
Ace2\AceEvent-2.0\AceEvent-2.0.lua:903
AddOns:
After this one error is given, any further dailies turned in do not produce this error, only the first one for some reason. Thanks for keeping this going.
@Pyrran,
Is your character Horde and also can you goto you
World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\** ACCOUNT NAME**\SavedVariables
copy the contents of DailiesQuestTracker.lua (just open it with a text reader) and just send a PM here with the info. I'd like to look it over and see what is being saved. Try to send me something when you obtain the error, like getting a Random Daily. Do a UI Reload with the error and send that data.
Thanks.
P.S. the error being posted is from a Random Daily (Cooking) and for some reason it can't grab the info properly.
Ok updated to the latest version - problem still persists
Also discovered a seperate issue (I think) in that, if you have say one of the random dailies accepted already and either login or do a reloadui - you get no tooltip whatsoever
Clearing all Bugsack errors and mousing over the DQT area on fubar gives:
Code:
[2008/11/05 19:08:31-397-x1]: DailiesQuestTracker-3.0\DailiesQuestTracker.lua:1883: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

Tablet-2.0-90216 (FuBar):2548: in function <...nterface\AddOns\FuBar\libs\Tablet-2.0\Tablet-2.0.lua:2542>
ok - just been doing a little testing and for me i only appear to have problems if I have "Random Dailies Communication" enabled - with it disabled, I cant seem to get the blank tooltip issue to show itself, and the tooltip always shows on mouseover.

@StingerSoft
Just download my mod, make a copy of deDE.lua, translate it in your language. Most parts are translated in my mod. Quest-Links translating is hard work cause it's so much. The rest I will translate when WOTLK is online.
@Fritos
Thank you :-) Could you use my mod to evolve the DQT? than I do not need to translate so much in further versions, look at my Changelog. I will translate the WOTLK Parts when the X-Pac is online.
[starts to gripe at Frito, then finds the button that turns BC quests ON] Oops, that's set to off by default lol, might want to warn people. Otherwise, great mod!
@StingerSoft
I do realize that there are missing stings in the localization, I did state on the front page. That I'm not going to be doing any localizations till I get everything hammered out. So ENGLISH clients don't need them. In due time, or in Cigaro's case a German version.
@lbeaton and Pyrran
This is gonna be tricky on what the issue may be if you aren't getting any errors associated with it, can you make sure you have display LUA errors in your options to see if anything pops up. Also, Pyrran your version is old, DQT is now at 3.0.1 download a more current version as I'm not gonna be able to resolve those errors from a previous version.
@Maziel
This is a known issue with Blizzard, and they have yet to date not fixed it. Must not be a priority for them. The reason you see this error is because the Realm is not sending a reset time, so I place this [ERROR] instead. If you notice also, open you Quest Log and hover over the dailies count and it'll show no dailies reset time about an hour before they are suppose to.
@Cigaro
Great job there, I haven't forgotten what you did for the previous version. Still have the copy you localized. Just was working hard on this new version, so localizing an old version was a low priority. Really cool though to see it in a different language. ;D
