FAQ for Classic (1.13)

1. Questie doesn't show anything on the map/minimap

Follow the installation guide posted in #install-guide on Discord and make sure to grab the latest release!

2. Questie still doesn't show anything

Did you restarted the WoW client? If yes you can try to reset the Questie settings by deleting the following files. This will delete your Journey as well! If you don't care delete the following files with WoW closed:

• World of Warcraft_classic_\WTF\Account<yourAccount>\SavedVariables\Questie.lua

• World of Warcraft_classic_\WTF\Account<yourAccount>\SavedVariables\Questie.lua.bak

• World of Warcraft_classic_\WTF\Account<yourAccount><yourServer><yourCharacter>\SavedVariables\Questie.lua

• World of Warcraft_classic_\WTF\Account<yourAccount><yourServer><yourCharacter>\SavedVariables\Questie.lua.bak

If that doesn't help read the other FAQs and message us in #general on Discord if nothing helps.

3. Questie shows icons on the minimap but not the world map

This is likely because of a conflict with another addon. Make sure you have the latest version installed. If not try to disable all addons except Questie and see if that works. If you find conflicts let us know in #general on Discord or on Github.

4. Questie doesn't show an available quest even though I can accept it

This is most likely because of some wrong entry in our database. Please report the quest on GitHub or in #general on Discord!

5. Questie shows available quests at the wrong position

Same as 4.

6. How do I turn off auto accept/turn-in of quests?

You'll find such options in the "General" tab of Questie. If they're turned off make sure to check your other addons. Addons known doing this are: AAP Leatrix Quest Codex SpartanUI.

7. The Questie icons on the map are green

Have another look at the installation guide. Your folder paths are incorrect.

8. The map positions of the Questie icons are totally messed up

This is most likely because of a conflict with another addon. If you use GatherMate2 make sure to update to v4.0.16 or higher.

9. I see a message saying "Quest Missing:" and can't get rid of it

This message comes from the AAP addon. Disable it or pickup the quest to fix it.

10. Questie shows a quest that I already completed

Are you sure it is the same quest and not another part of a quest chain? If yes make sure you have the latest Questie release installed. If you already have the latest version installed you should open up an issue on Github or contact us in #general on Discord.

11. Questie doesn't show the quests that are started by dropped items

We have yet to think about a way how to include those items on the map. The problem is that the map would be absolutely flooded with icons for most quests.

12. I can't get the arrow showing

For the arrow you need to install v4.0.16+ and make sure to install the TomTom addon. Then you can right click a quest or an objective in the tracker to set the TomTom target.

13. How do I move the quest tracker

Ctrl + left click

14. My minimap button is gone. How do I access the config?

You can always open up the config with: "/questie". If that doesn't work you most likely didn't restart WoW after an update or have more than 1 Questie version installed. In your addon folder you should have a "Questie" and a "QuestieDev-master" folder. Remove the latter.

15. Is it possible to hide a quest manually?

Yes with v4.0.15+ you can use "shift + leftclick" to hide a quest. Unhiding is done by searching the quest in the journey (right click the questie icon). But please make sure to report bugged quests so we can fix them.

16. Questie doesn't show up at all!

Make sure you have only 1 version of Questie installed! In your addon folder you should have a "Questie" and a "QuestieDev-master" folder. Remove the latter.

17. Why are some exclamation marks blue?

Those mark repeatable quests.

18. There are exclamation marks (!) floating on my screen!

This is the new DBM HUD feature which helps you to navigate to available quests and quest objectives. You can access the config in the DBM tab of Questie.

19. In the config of Questie are options named "enUS-key missing!"

This happens if you have more than one Questie version. In your addon folder you should have a "Questie" and a "QuestieDev-master" folder. Remove the latter.

20. I have an error saying something about "Usage: NewAddon([object] name [lib lib lib ...]): 'name' - Addon 'Questie' already exists."

Have a look at 19. You have more than one version of Questie installed which results in such an error!

21. I get an error on startup about "Callbackhandler-1.0.lua:90: unexpected symbol near ..."

This indicates you are trying to use the Classic (Patch 1.13+) version of Questie on a vanilla (Patch 1.12) server. Have a look at #install-guide on Discord and grab v3.7.1 of Questie.

22. I get an error about "attemt to compare number with string" when joining a group

One of your party members updated to Questie v5.1.0 and you didn't. Update to v5.1.0 as well and there won't be an error.

23. I want to unhide all quests I've hidden from the map

For now you can do this by running the following command:

/run Questie.db.char.hidden = nil

and do a "/reload" afterwards
