Will someone please add the following functionality to their quest log addon:
1st) An easy way to bring up the wowhead profile for one or more quests.
My idea is to basically add check boxes at the end of each quest and zone container. You press a button and a dialog box pops up with a bunch of commands that someone can copy and paste in a command line. I played around with FireFox and I noticed that from a command line you can type firefox.exe
www.google.com and FireFox will open with a tab,
www.google.com. If FireFox is already open, it will open a new tab and go to
www.google.com. Well at this point is trivial:
Quest name:
A Rare Bean
Swap out the spaces for ‘+’s and tack on to the front ‘ "c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
http://www.wowhead.com/?search= ’ . So the command would look like...
Command:
"c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
http://www.wowhead.com/?search=A+Rare+Bean
Paste that in a command line and FireFox will open up to that quests site. It also works with multiple command lines as long as there is a carriage return at the end of each line. So…
Quest Names:
A Rare Bean
A Fate Worse Than Death
A Heap of Ethereals
All Clear!
Commands:
"c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
http://www.wowhead.com/?search=A+Rare+Bean
"c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
http://www.wowhead.com/?search=A+Fate+Worse+Than+Death
"c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
http://www.wowhead.com/?search=A+Heap+of+Ethereals
"c:\program files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" http://www.wowhead.com/?search=All+Clear!
Copy and paste that in a command line and you will get four brand new tabs in FireFox with their corresponding searches.
2nd) Can someone add the ability to view your parties' quests. Many times when I'm either helping a friend or am being helped myself, it's useful to be able to see the other persons quest log. Obviously those who would want this feature would have to have the same mod.
Thanks for taking the time to consider adding these. I would do it myself but there is already tons of really great quest log addons and I don’t want to spend weeks trying to figure out someone else’s code and then adding my own which would most likely make the mod unstable.
Thanks
