Some quests from beta seem not to exist on live servers.

For example this one: https://www.wowhead.com/beta/quest=70833/rumors-of-the-jeweled-whelplings does not exist on live.

In file requirements.lua function Quest:GetText() return C_QuestLog.GetTitleForQuestID(self.id) end returns nil because C_QuestLog.GetTitleForQuestID(70833) returns nil, and then text = color(L['Requires'] .. ' ' .. req:GetText())of course throws an error.

Quick fix for now

Open file requirements.lua and change line 140 from

function Quest:GetText() return C_QuestLog.GetTitleForQuestID(self.id) end

to

function Quest:GetText() return C_QuestLog.GetTitleForQuestID(self.id) or format("(unknown quest, fix pls: %d)", self.id or 0) end
