quest linking in chat broke in newest update
x003 opened this issue ยท 5 comments
When you shift click a quest to chat from your log or ctrl click to paste current quest status it only links the quest name now and in bracket [ ] instead of the level of the quest, quest name, and quest status
You'll have to be more specific? What broke exactly? Is it throwing an error? Does it cause other AddOns to fail?
Reason I'm asking is that technically Quest Linking was introduced in BC. It wasn't available in Vanilla because we can't query Server Side data like we can with Items. However, using a clever method of spoofing the item Hyperlink Reference API we can inject Quest data in chat but the mod you're using has to be able to handle the custom Hyperlink reference that gets passed under the hood. ShaguQuest is the only mod that I know of off the top of my head that does it but their method only shows you details of the quest if you're actually on said quest. If not then it simply displays the fact that you're not on it.
Its still in my local Dev build and I haven't submitted it yet but I have Quest Linking working in Questie and it will be compatible with ShaguQuest. Their mod will continue to work the way it was designed by clicking on links submitted by Questie users in chat. On the flip side if you're using Questie to click the link, we pull the quest description directly from Questies database; it doesn't matter if you're on the quest or not. This is more Blizzard like that some players are familiar with.
So I need to know which version you're using. The actual release package or did you sync your Questie install with the latest commit from GitHub?
Or you can wait until I release v3.70 and retest.
before Questie v3.69 on the release page
