Thanks โค
I'm not sure how you guys deal with it but this site takes comments from wowhead and also the look. https://vanilla-twinhead.twinstar.cz/?quest=1793
Wouldn't be the first site sadly
Isn't the first and won't be the last... I don't think wowhead has their site design copyrighted... do you guys? I'm guessing not with Perculia's comment...
The site and its content is our property, using it on their site without permission is definitely illegal. We forward these things off to our legal department and they decide if it's something they can pursue or not. It's just out of our hands really.
It doesn't look to be a popular site so probably isn't worth it... And if they're hosted overseas, only a cease and desist order can be sent... otherwise nothing further can really be done which sucks
And it's a private server website... so even worse... wowhead and Blizz content stolen... that may be something you and Blizz could work together on... but your legal dept would be best to make that decision, hopefully no harm is done
Wowhead.com will not be accessible as of 10:00 PM Pacific time this evening. We're doing maintenance and hope to return within 8 hours of that time (around 6:00 AM PT). For more information about what is impacted, please see our post: http://www.wowhead.com/news=267938.
During the maintenance window, I will be here throughout the night and we'll be doing a special giveaway during that time for anyone who's around. More info about that will become available once the site goes down.
Thank you all for your patience!
is it illegal to copy stuff from wowhead? i downloaded all the battleground maps and used it on a private wesite
Calling the police right now
It depends on how you're using it, and if you asked permission, and what exactly it is you copied. This isn't something I'd want to discuss here, you can send an email to feedback@wowhead.com if you want to give specifics and I can look into a more thorough answer for you.
@teal dragon Gettin' a whole lot of 502's here.
Yes, unfortunately we're aware.
We're fixing little things that are happening and when doing that it briefly brings the site down. However, it's staying down longer than expected. It should be back now with a refresh, but expect some slow loading right now. A lot of server cache things (that makes sites faster) require time to replenish themselves.
Just in time to enter the last giveaway maintenance ๐
but didn't give me luck ๐ฆ grats
@teal dragon how long have the winner time on the tcg mount, its longer on such a expensive giveaway? ๐
the latest ptr items are still on maintenance on wowhead? showing "loading" and "undefined"
Be sure to clear your cache @dusk harbor -- it may take some time for everything to display properly but the site is recovering from the maintenance. It'll improve throughout the day.
@lime tusk Sorry, I didn't see your message earlier. Everyone has replied and it's all taken care of. Thanks for participating!
site seems good, glad they got what you broke fixed Sas ๐
It's not fully back yet but overall the move was a success. ๐
oh not seen anything missing, but then I'm too busy elsewhere and just looking at new articles
Yeah, 99.5% of the site is as it should be. ๐
Registration and Feedback emails aren't working yet, but that's only about .1-.5 in the grand scheme of things. We'll likely get it up later today.
I'm finally going to sleep. Good night!
feedback? only complaints anyway!
night Sas, cya in 6 hours ๐
Today in Broken IslesEU Realms
- dont shows M+ Affixes
Hey! Did the screenshot uploading process change, or is that just not avilable yet after the move?
When trying to upload, I selcet file, press upload but I am not taken to the usual page where you can crop or add comments.
The selected file is removed from the field, and it just seems like pressing submit refreshes the page.
Using firefox if that has anything to say in this. I haven't had issues when uploading before.
@fickle pecan There seem to be some issues with the screenshot system currently, possibly related to the maintenance from earlier today.
I suggest giving it a bit and try again later today.
It's definitely not on your end though.
Alright! Test server is down anyway now. I'll try later thanks ๐
@Rubinus#6359 it's back up now. Please allow time after reset for data to be acquired for the new week. ๐
@Elrox#1939 we're working on the screenshot submission problem now, hope to get it back very soon. Thank you!
@lethal oriole @fickle pecan see above
Thanks, my user list is down for some reason.
The whole Discord was down for me until a moment ago. I may disappear again ๐ฆ
Screenshot submission back online! ๐
Nice! Looking forward to getting a look at the last of the new zones on the PTR ๐
Is that place available yet?
It should be - here's our zone preview https://www.wowhead.com/news=268269/antorus-wastes-zone-preview-and-argus-questline-part-4
I'm having issues adding the news webhook to my discord, is it possible the bot is down currently?
What is the issue exactly?
Do you have an error? Is that error on our site or on Discord?
I just tested adding it to a test server and it added properly. Note that once you add it, you won't see anything happen until a new News post is posted to the site. It'll post within ~5 minutes of that going live.
just started getting this
waiting for www.wowhead.com
Finaly loaded after waiting 20 seconds, .... ok every page is taking forever to load.
Yea ๐ฆ aware, it's being looked into.
lol whats going on with the discord member list in this server
That I can't control. haha
the server was down multiple times, the user list has yet to return.
Yeah I got that bad gateway issue as well.
Why does the website load so slow lately?
hm well I didnt get an error, I expected to atleast see the bot show in the members list
Webhooks don't appear as users/bots
You can verify that it's enabled by looking at the settings for the channel
hmm I attempted to add it again, but I don't see it appear in the webhooks tab in settings unless I wouldn't see anything there
It should appear, in the webhook area of the specific channel you added it to.
And you're adding it via http://www.wowhead.com/news-webhook right? From a logged in account?
yup I am
All I can say is it worked for me when I tried. Are you sure you have the appropriate permission levels on the server/channel you're trying to add it to?
I believe I do, let me attempt adding it to a fresh server
It's working fine for me too. I just added both the normal and small image versions to one of my channels
same here
okay I got it to work, odd haha
Odd or not, I'm glad it's working for you now! ๐
yup thanks for the assistance!
hey, any issues with changing emails on wowhead? i keep getting errors whenever i try to
What kind of error?
uhhh - let me try again one sec
the entire site times out with a ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR error
no idea what that means ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
RR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR' is an error in the Chrome browser which can appear for some different reasons, please try the solutions below.
- Restarting your browser
When you face this error, you can close your chrome browser and start it again. It should fix ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR. While this is a simple fix, it is the quickest way to solve this error.
- Make sure your Chrome browser is up to date
You can easily update your Chrome browser via the settings menu on the upper right of your browser window, and selecting "About Chrome".
- Use Chromeโs Incognito Mode
If you face ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR for any specific website, you can try to access that website in incognito mode.
For instructions on how to activate ZenMate in Chrome's incognito mode please visit the article "Am I secured even when using the โIncognito Modeโ of Google Chrome?"
- Flushing DNS and Renewing IP
Flushing DNS and Renewing IP can solve ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR sometimes.
To flush DNS:
Open Command Prompt.
Type ipconfig /flushdns and press Enter.
To Renew IP:
Open Command Prompt.
Type ipconfig /release and press Enter.
Again type ipconfig /renew and press Enter.
Note: You may need to also configure your internet connection.
- Flushing SPDY Sockets
To flush SPDY sockets:
Go to chrome://net-internals/#events&q=type:SPDY_SESSION%20is:active from your chrome browser.
Then click on the arrow of the top right corner.
From the drop-down menu select Flush Sockets.
yeah i did some googling and found those things, tried most of them except dns/ip renewing 'cause i cant atm
didnt work unfortunately
What's stopping you from doing the flush?
work things
Ah OK, when you are able to do that, try it and then come back and I'm sure Sas will take another look
none of the sockets stall or error out so im not sure why its throwing that error
Just figured I'd step in and try to do some troubleshooting
thanks ๐
okay hopped off the work vpn, tried the dns flush and renewed my IP, still no dice :/
also tried a second browser to no avail
OK, I use the same browser, let me try and see if the same thing happens to me
It's not letting me because I have a unified login...
same thing, but asks me to provide the master password. thats where it hangs entirely
(i also dont ever remember setting up a separate ZAM account, but apparently i must have?)
@regal bobcat Can you PM me please? Going to need more info that shouldn't be public.
definitely
Three times in a row.
@rapid parcel Password Resets are not currently functioning. It's a known issue in our Maintenance post here: https://www.wowhead.com/news=267938/scheduled-maintenance-completed
If you need help with a password reset in the meantime, please send me a PM with your registered email address. Thank you.
@random finch thats because the cache is empty after the move
I've already created a topic on this in the site feedback forums, but I don't think the Broken Shore buildings are shown properly
As in, it's saying the mage tower is under attack on EU, but on the app it's still not even halfway done; it's saying the command center is 3/4 done, but it's actually under attack right, and the percentage for the Nether Disruptor is slightly off
Yup, was about to report the same - last evening, it was the Command Center that went up, not the Mage Tower, the preceeding building was the Disruptor and not the MT, too. Also the buff is Heavily Augmented - circulated several alts through there. EU Broken Shore is deffo borked atm.
Where does one report incorrect data on a page, for example a quest that says it's for a single race but actually isn't?
that data gets extracted from the game, what quest is it?
any reason why bnet login is not working?
wow ... comment posting is broken too lol
Database is down
@viscid heart Starting with Iverron's Antiodote, this quest line is available to all Alliance races as far as I can tell.
http://www.wowhead.com/quest=28724/iverrons-antidote
sites not lettign me log in, so I'll try again later when the US team are awake
yea seems broken atm
Sas probably fell asleep on the on/off button
Migrations are always bad. Please understand, the team is working actively on it ๐
aye matey, no worries, just did it last month myself
no worries
its usually my go to site when im bored at work ๐
now i just lost my purpose in life
its all good

yeah it's on my "load up when I start the day" site list too
For consideration on here (Discord), any chance we can get Looking For Group channels for PVP/PVE and EU/US? might be useful if people need help on anything
@scenic panther There are tons of other Discords that do that though
There's literally LFG discords ^^;
With added specific roles for it too for factions. It's pretty nice. I get pinged a LOT though and regret my decision ๐
yeah, but they aren't wowhead ๐
^
@bold umbra buildings seem to have fixed themselves. Sometimes user uploads from one region error and show up as the other, which confuses percentages until more data is received
how does one get the wowhead premium tag
We're looking into why there were 502 errors 3-4 hours ago
http://www.wowhead.com/legion-dungeon-journal is the same on normal and PTR, it's been this way since before and now after the site matainence
that page is always the same on live and PTR
visit the actual boss pages to see what the abilites are
because IE can't read modern security certificates, use Edge, Chrome or Firefox
ah. okay. I didn't know that. I was trying IE, because the sounds for High King Maulgar weren't playing in Chrome.
the last part doesnt look right
what are you talking about the speed increase on those gauntlets is insane
Ah, @proud elbow - that is a guide created by a user, such as yourself, who opted to use images from their Photobucket account. Photobucket recently changed their policies to not allow third parties to display their images without paying (some ~$600/year). As such, the author will need to come back and edit their guide.
o ok
You can, however, click the image that is being shown to load the Photobucket site itself and see the image they linked.
The image is still there, just on photobucket.
right click the image and open in new tab
I'll see about fixing that particular guide though @proud elbow
Ty
Photobucket is really annoying. I mentioned it earlier and how I prefer to use imgur for that reason because photobucket links have always been a bother ^^;
Ah it was you then, I knew I had seen this guide already earlier and learned about the Photobucket changes. I'm glad I know so when/if users bring it up (as in just now) I'll have an appropriate answer. I am thankful though, that at least the image is accessible by opening it up in a new tab. Not ideal but better than gone.
So I know I'm a little behind on catching up but is there somewhere stating why the switch to Wednesdays for Wowhead Weekly?
convention travel schedules mean that friday is at a great risk for canceling, plus friday afternoon has some really big general gaming shows going on, which we can't compete with for viewers, twitch promo etc. Wednesday seems like a better choice for promotion and consistent shows
Sounds very reasonable. I suppose I'll just have to get used to watching the recordings instead of live ๐
Site Update: Users should now be able to change their own email address, submit a password reset request, and a username recovery again as they were able to previously. These were the last major issues that were subsequent to the data center migration downtime. Thank you for your patience while we got that taken care of!
This fix was implemented earlier today, just forgot to mention it here.
@plucky fractal Aww, sorry you won't be able to be there live but we appreciate your understanding! ๐
http://clip2net.com/s/3MFY8XP wtf? i can't use site for more than 3 weeks.
@royal dagger Looks like a browser issue. Are you running Chrome with any extensions?
@teal dragon yep, I use friGate CDN
It's entirely possible it's preventing the page from rendering properly. You may need to try disabling it to see how the site functions with it off or try in a different browser.
Chrome, Edge, IE 11 - Same problem. Disabling friGate CDN does not help ๐ฆ
If I use "search", I get http://clip2net.com/s/3MG23pQ
Something on your end is preventing access to parts of the site. It's definitely isolated. What else are you running?
I'd recommend you try running a completely clean browser, no extensions/addons/plugins, no protections beyond Windows Defender and see what happens. If it still doesn't work it could be with your ISP or the CDN.
ok, thx for help.
I know it wasn't much, but I hope my suggestions do help. Take care! ๐
Hi everybody. Pls guys tell me does http://www.wowhead.com/item=133647/gift-of-radiance&bonus=1512:1726 still stun? In all specs (tank, dd)? In pvp?
There is no info about stun in the description (I think after 7.1), but there is a stun aura below. It it true or it's just not updated?
Hey peeps. Is there a way to filter out news tagged as PTR? For those trying to avoid spoilers? ๐
No, sorry, just try to skip the ones marked PTR. We do our best not to spoil too much on the preview/main page.
I try, but they're so tempting to click on ^.^
What's the exact time Wowhead Weekly starts? Last time I think it started around midnight for EU.
there should be a function to disable PTR Notifcations.
On Discord? Just click the bell button at the top when you are on the ptr channel.
it starts at about midnight for EU and wowhead weekly is on wednesday now
I think it would be cool to delay it by like 10 or 15 minutes so people who finish raiding at midnight have enough time to see the notifications
I think sas needs their own sticker please ๐
I asked Ketsuki to look into it, just for you ๐
Yay!!!
@lone dirge I realize im replying to a week old message but you can hide ptr posts on your end with a userstyle if your browser supports them. The css for it would be div[data-type="2"] {display: none !important;} and could be applied to other news types by changing the 2 to 1-7
Tampermonkey is a free browser extension and the most popular userscript manager. It's available for Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari, Opera Next, and Firefox. Even though some of the supported browsers have native userscript support, Tampermonkey will give you much more convenience in managing your userscripts. It provides features like easy script installation, automatic update checks, a simple overview what scripts are running at a tab, a built-in editor and there is a good chance that incompatible scripts run fine with Tampermonkey. So give it a try!
TamperMonkey helps if your browser doesn't have native userstyles
or check out https://violentmonkey.github.io/get-it/ instead of tampermonkey ๐
Hi there, anyone can tell me why there are 4 bosses listed on the Violet Hold mythic boss rotation this week? I was in there 3 times already, always the same 2 bosses spawned.. so why there are listed 4 instead 2 or am I missing something?
someone uploaded bad data
so I'm right that there is always just a 2-boss rotation and not out of 4?
oh
betrug or spider lady
ah well yes, I meant of the main bosses like Festerface, because this week it spawned Manastorm and Shivermaw 3 times in a row
that's why I'm wondering
I guess the info needs some fixing on the page ๐
Can't find info in wowhead. Is midnight a flying mount or a ground one?
Ground only
Man... I'm sad now
What do i do if i dont have a Wowhead account but use my battle.net account when im trying to install the Wowhead client?
It looks like something on the back-end is stalling, we're working on fixing it
hey, I'm aware, there are just many larger issues to address atm
Downloaded the Wowhead client. Uploaded the data-bits. Waved hello and thankees to @teal dragon ๐
http://www.wowhead.com/item=33225/reins-of-the-swift-spectral-tiger You can actually get it through wow loot card. And this thing has a price of 1,3k$.
you are on the wrong page https://www.wowhead.com/item=49284/reins-of-the-swift-spectral-tiger is the correct one as it's not marked as BoP
psst
when did search break?
i.e. why is there nothing showing up for
http://www.wowhead.com/search?q=dig+rat#didyoumean
they are searches for 3 letter phrases which may be too short. this was changed in legion to avoid the risk of site crashes
Hmm, true
I used to search for multi-word things by typing only their first 3 letters
was much faster for me that way
I don't like it, but it won't kill me
Different question: why doesn't http://www.wowhead.com/spell=201943/better-luck-next-time show up when I search for it?
http://www.wowhead.com/search?q=better+luck+next+time
The largest World of Warcraft (WoW) information website, featuring information on classes, professions, artifacts, raids, transmog, and more.
that seems like it could be a bug, I've asked a developer to look at it
we're mostly focused on the ptr atm but matt should be free
no big
So after taking another look, this may be due to the spell with that name being uncategorized, and the quest being marked as removed from the game...the site may think that there are no legitimate/important results. However if this comes up again with different search terms it may be a more serious issue
OK so we figured it out. It seems that an unintended side effect of swapping databases is that the 3-letter rule was changed to be a 4-letter rule. This isn't something we're interested in so we've contacted a member of the ops team to undo it
Site/Nonsite related
I suppose its time to continue cleaning up The Burning Crusade area ๐ . might still find some outdated stuff there after all. I just could not simply resist anymore, too many new Screenshots to take in Tomb and Argus is on its way. Im just getting left behind at this rate.
Be ready to see me on pending list again ๐
@verbal sky nice! ๐

@tawny blade are you saying you'll revert back to a 3-letter minimum? i.e. "dig rat" will work, but "di ra" won't?
dig rat may still not work. better luck next time should work though
the achievement 'well read' was not working and should work as well
I tried to make an outfit using the heroic version of rune infused spear, but the item listed on the outfit page leads to this instead: http://www.wowhead.com/item=147440/monster-weapon-polearm-2h-felfireraid-d-01-teal
I got a 885 version (relinquished warforged) out of the nethershard trader dude: http://www.wowhead.com/item=147275/beguilers-talisman <- can't select the 885 version here, need the item ID to sim it, anyone have an idea how to get the ID?
and now I just tried to save an outfit and it ignored the chest and leg items completely ๐ค
seems to be an issue with trying to save outfits including items from mythic raids
Wowhead will be down for maintenance at 11pm pacific tonight. This should last approximately 10 minutes and it should fix the search issue @blazing lance reported earlier.
Not sure if this is the right place to find this, but on the site you can click the the show 3d image button.
Example -- Ariok - npcid 92927, it has a modelid of 63466.. is there a way to get the modelid's from api in conjunction with the npcid?
modelid is my phrasing i think blizzard uses displayinfo for terminology
I believe you might be able to use the Source Info and search for the modelID or something along those lines
Right-click the View in 3D button and Inspect Element (depending on browser)
In the <a> element there's a javascript function call with a displayId set. Looking at Ariok, that displayId matches your model id.
Er, re-reading the question, that might not be what you're looking for. I'm not sure about an API solution
What I am wondering is quite different. I can find no other mention of the number 63466 when associated with the npcid 92947. If i can find a way to pull this info from blizzard api, I would be able to populate what I am wanting to without having to manually grab that number from wowhead. The main information I guess I am wondering is where the number 63466 came from so I can duplicate a way to grab that number. I can get my addon to show a model, but it isnt from using that number. Having that number allows me to show the model and show a seperate Icon as well. The issue I am having is the amount of time it takes to gather 83466. Sorry not the easiest thing to explain, hopefully someone can follow.
You might want to try the Blizzard API discord server
I thought that was just for auction house api questions and not addon api questions, or is there a different one?
https://discord.gg/a776xW web API
I'm not sure. I've seen questions about both the web api and lua api. I think the AH stuff is just popular
ahh ok, thanks
If it's not for lua stuff too, there should be at least some forums or something
yeah the main coder on the addon worked on it forever last night but was unable to pull the number we needed from api
he was able to get a model to attach for the tooltip, but unable to do what we had previously been doing with the different number and use that model to create an icon for the main interface.
@tawny blade - Thank you for that post on mounts!! I now have a list of "Gotta get them all" ๐ธ
yeah, loving that post
awesome glad you like it ๐
Which post is that?
still miss 4 of those mounts. :/
The Ashes of Al'ar actually has a significant backstory.

ive still got ads showing on the website even tho im premium ๐ฆ
make sure you are definitely logged in, I've not got any showing
Make sure under settings you have the option correctly selected not to see ads

also is anyone eelse getting shockwave flash has crashed message?
It won't let me even create a new account or login with battle.net even after it got access from battle.net ......
I can get to step "1.5 of 2" where it's supposed to send me an email to create an account but it never sent me an email been a day..
Thanks Sas for fixing my account for me this morning! ๐
hey, I'm having trouble saving outfits that include items from mythic HFC? the outfit itself saves but none of the items with the mythic tag show up on the outfit page
Hrm.. I'm having difficulty even connecting to wowhead :s
Happy to help @uneven olive ๐
@winged trellis Send me an email to feedback@wowhead.com and I'll send you the verification email manually.
@coral flint Is that still an issue?
doesn't seem to be now, no. :s
It was just really slow (was looking at this page)
http://www.wowhead.com/shadow-priest-talent-guide
and I checked other websites to see if it was me etc. and it wasn't :v
Probably just a temporary issue then, sorry about that!
hehe it's fine. Stuff happens ๐คท
does anyone know what might cause pages to crash ? this happens to me pretty frequently, where one page i am on will stop loading or crash and then if i have any other tabs open of wowhead they also stop functiioning. ๐ฎ
@dull marsh You may be experiencing some bad ads. Please click 'Feedback' and "Bad Advertisment" when you encounter this behavior. We'll look into which are causing an issue and look to have the ad networks remove them. In the meantime, when a page begins to slow, a simple refresh will usually resolve the issue. Alternatively, if you need to stay on a page for awhile (like a guide or news post) you can click the tiny vertical bar on the upper right edge of the site to temporarily close ads until you navigate away or refresh the page. We do apologize for any inconvenience experienced as a result of this behavior.
@rich wyvern The twitch.tv links in the latest post are broken, I think you have to add the http:// prefix so they don't redirect to "http://www.wowhead.com\Twitch.tv/FatbossTV" for example.
@teal dragon Alright, thanks. I didn't know about the little tab. The other issue I keep running into is when trying to add an item to one of my custom lists, it says that the item was added, but when I go to my list it isn't there. what do?
Can the bot be made to play the Big Bang Theory verison of RPS? Scissors cuts Paper, Paper covers Rock , Rock crushes Lizard, Lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes Scissors, Scissors decapitates Lizard, Lizard eats Paper, Paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes Rock (and as it always has) Rock crushes Scissors.
the doesnt have to do with wowhead, its dyno
@teal dragon mythic HFC armour pieces aren't being saved to outfits
@teal dragon I just saw your message and sent the email to you.
about to hit 18k here
anybody knows were they put wowhead weekly on the site ?? could only find it trough search ?!
the filming of the show has switched days to wednesday but we're aiming to include it in our blizzard saturday roundups. you can also find all the shows at https://www.youtube.com/user/Wowhead
would a link to them on the navbar be a good addition? so they are all listed on teh site, not just youtube?
also loving the wow economy article too, is that a regular thing now?
the navbar is pretty short on space, so I don't think we can add more to it for now. we're trying to only squeeze huge things in for now, like a 7.3 overview
wow economy article should be weekly now!
awesome, that was a great article, nice one ๐
Tx i found the last 2, one on youtube and other trough search on wowhead. But couldn't find them in the regular topics/recent news. Btw how are you doing with brightpaw ๐
Woohoo! Just passed the 25k points mark! ๐
Time to get that fancy coloured name!
grats!
hi
Thanks! Think I saw a link to a "how to get the colour on discord" some place.. Can't find it right now though. Does the upgrade just happen automatically on the website?
Hey
what's the best way to report a bug with the website?
@inner wolf Post it here ๐
oh bother, I just sent in a report on the website 9_9
@fickle pecan Instructions are in the #welcome-rules channel ๐
@inner wolf That's fine, I'll get to it eventually ๐
Ahh duh! Thanks! ๐
@teal dragon basically outfits don't seem to be saving correctly, there's an issue with some mythic-tagged items (at least those from HFC) where they don't appear on the outfit page after saving
I went into more detail on the report I submitted but that's the long and short of it
Received. I'll send it to the appropriate parties to see if we can find some time to investigate. Thank you!
๐
What's the max number of characters I can have linked to my profile on the website?
~10 or so, but Premium I believe can do 50
oooh, nice! I have 7 linked so far. I'll have to go about linking some others after I sleep.
Ninis all
any word on the "Add all" and "Update all characters" for premium yet Sas?
Hey everyone! Just wanted to point something out:
In this page - "http://www.wowhead.com/new-players-world-of-warcraft", under the "Setting up your Account and Game" header, the last phrase of the third paragraph reads:
"You can only change your BattleTag once for free, afterwards you need to pay a free in order to do so, keep that in mind."
I believe there is an extra "r" in the word fee.
Keep up the good work!
found a bugged link on the warrior class set guide the one that links all teh tmog sets: upon mousing over pvp set s7 and s10 it shows the same set for both instead of different ones. link here: http://www.wowhead.com/warrior-transmogrification-armor-sets-guide#catapvp-arena-season-10
ok for some reason on the site its trying to automatic download stuff on my computer, why is it trying to do that? http://prntscr.com/g829a7 @teal dragon
Might make more sense to ask here. As I am taking a look around the PTR , I like to post some scenic screenshots in the PTR channel. I also like exploring. In the new raid, many areas have invisible walls around them, some can be jumped over. There is a lot of interesting scenery out there aswell. Does the discord have a rule against screenshots of areas that could be considdered out of bounds? Or would it be acceptable, on at least the PTR channel as the area is WIP?
As an example, while running along the correct path, one can observe battles between the forces of the Army of Light, and the demons of the Burning Legion. Without too much trouble it is possible to get down there to take a better look, although the area is "out of bounds" so to speak.
If you can get to it via normal means that's fine, if it's in an open area. If someone were to like - post pictures of the raid before testing opened, that would be less fine (we're aware some people do it and it periodically pops up on reddit, but as an official fansite we don't want to create that sort of coverage ourselves and encourage it)
Alright! The raid can be accessed on the PTR via Nexus-Lord Donjon Rade Sr. found in Dalaran and other capitals, so it should be fine then ๐
A lot of the areas do not yet have mobs, so you can really get a nice view at the scenery, if you sneak past the first areas
Yeah, we've been doing that now and should have several videos/articles. The 7.3 PTR is pretty open now so I couldn't think of a bad example, that was just one from last month that came to mind
Yes yes, I appreciate the clarification!
Is there a place to report something amiss or missing on the site that is available elsewhere?
For more clarification..
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=7137/immolatus
is missing the model (show in 3d)
the creatureid is 7029
this should be helpful to add the 3d model to page.
@fervent basin
Get on my level ๐
that's cute xD
Consecutive visits: 1 ๐น
That one consecutive visit is kinda impressive on it's own
Anyone else having issues with wowhead atm (and more often since they changed?) Getting 502 Bad Gateway
yes, also loading slow every once in a while after an error message
Hey, does /screenshotquality10 macro still stand?
I'm not sure, but I don't see why they'd have changed it.
If you want to be sure, just take a screenshot at 3 and one at 10 and see if there's a difference.
Like yourself?
^
one in left is obv screenshotquality3 and one in right10
so yea no changes have been made apparently. for some reason it keeps resetting it to me sometimes
Good to know. Just make a habit of hitting that macro every time you login.
will do ๐
Ugh jpg screenshots
Mine are always in .tga
(.png would be best but there's no option for that in Windows)
You know whats most irritating when taking screenshots? Being on Highpop realm & waiting for specifiec mob not having 100 corpses on his spawnpoint :/
Still wish i could play WoW as singeplayer sometimes ๐
have you looked at the PTR? fewer people over there
actually quite valid point. i should redownload PTR have not been playing on PTR since cata. << i just feel stupid right now.
And even better, while on PTR i can get the most valid Charater for Screenshotting, Priest ๐
I dont have single priest at 110 atm so
Is anyone else having problems uploading data with the wowhead client?
apparenlty yes, just got
Hasn't worked for me for months.
oh it does work most of the time, this is the first time in ages it's failed for me
@pallid temple You problably just have a file too big for the client
So it can't be uploaded
Maybe. It doesn't say so, so how should I know? ๐
my file on there is 1.5mb
Which file?
here oyu go ๐
15.5MB ... but this is after months of the client not wanting to upload. I don't remember when it started or what size for the account-specific data was shown then.
anyway, as always I am at wowheads disposal to help fix it ๐
I'll delete the +wowhead_looter files in SavedVariables, maybe this fixes it. Can't hurt either, since it doesn't work at the moment. ๐
ok
If you can go into the View -> Browse Log History and provide me the most recent log, upload it here thanks.
This should be the last one where I actually tried to upload.
Thank you both, sorry, doing a lot of stuff at once here ๐
no rush matey
happy to help
if info helps, funnilt my account is showing that it did upload data on my rep page
Yeah it's always done that.
You're welcome. If you need a more recent log (where I didn't try to upload) or an older one, just tell me.
The connection is happening, it's recording the upload... but it's not completed.
gotya
Frankly I have no idea why it's happening and I hate it. lol - But it is on the radar, we thought we fixed it recently by increasing the upload limit to 20MB but that doesn't seem to have resolved it. More work will need to be done.
is it safe to kill off old logs? nearly 2000 in the folder ๐
I've added these two logs to our ticket so they can be looked at more closely tomorrow.
Probably, though I doubt that folder is very large, size wize. ๐
nah not much
found some old info, Ovale addon on http://www.wowhead.com/feral-druid-macro-guide is no longer a addon, cant find it anywhere, tried Curse/twitch first
@zinc forum https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow/ovale but regardless ill make some changes to that section
is it you or blizzard?
On the new events in WoW artical under trial of style it says "Earn competition will" It's supposed to be each instead of earn isn't it?
You probably heard that already, but the bots posting in #latest-news-old would be actually useful if they copy the headline of the new article, too ๐
Is my cache broken? http://www.wowhead.com/npc=55510/abyssal-doombringer
Hey - not sure what this refers to, the bot should post both the headline, teaser image, and teaser sentence
Rant - likely
๐ฆ oh well goodbye cookies
Just happens with few pics from time to time
Looks like this for me shrug
do you have auto-embed settings turned off?
I wouldn't have said something if it looked like Spaten showed. I'm fairly new to discord, so could be a config error on my part. ๐
Link preview?
go to user settings > text and images
it may be that by disabling various images/previews, it also affects the webhook. the issue doesn't seem to be originating on wowhead's end though
Link preview it is - since it doesn't even show a link to preview without this enabled, I couldn't know.
Sorry then, it was a config issue on my end. I don't remember if it was off by default. I might've turned it offmyself due to the possible security risk.
anyone else getting this on the sitea: 502 Bad Gateway
I did, but a refresh bought the site up
Perculia - Today at 8:57 PM yep we're aware, we're having someone looking at it
ok thanks. I tried refresh and it just kept repeating the error. i had to keep using my bookmark to go back and it would be ok for a few pages then i'd have to repeat. Thanks for letting me know
It should have been just fixed; I was experiencing the issue as well so I'm definitely anxious for it to be good ๐
"Oh Crap, the boss noticed, make it work quick and stop playing pokemon"
That's not how these giveaways work.
Someone else won, there's always going to be a giveaway - maybe stay a while.
i thought we all get two or three
ppl just coming for giveaways, should not come here at all
That won't exactly stop people tbh. Many with next to no activity on the site have won grand prizes for ages.
not that i care about that anymore ๐
The whole idea is to hopefully develop some semblance of a loyal base.
yup, shame about the entitled idiots, i bet he's already left
i made one QQ thread about new members being able to take apart in giveaways years ago
i asked it to be removed obv as if QQIng is going to help
that's kind of my point ๐
I've definitely noticed increased activity on Discord from these giveaways. I think they do more help than harm ๐
oh certainly, if they stick around and chat, all good (which is the point of course)
@verbal sky You probably already heard this but, the vast majority of people who use Wowhead don't have accounts. That's the primary reason we don't exclude new accounts from giveaways. That user could have been using the site since day 1, but just never felt compelled to make an account. Granted, it's nice to see a record of a users history with the site, but it's not required.
yea i think that was the response back then to me ๐
it was just be being salty back then, idc rly . if i want that thing that badly i can always burn my paycheck on those things etc ๐
Yea, do what the rest of us do. ๐
somebody know what is uthers weapons name?
Lightbringer most likely
Uther didn't wield Ashbringer, he was a hammer wielder
get that out of your mind.
Too late for regrets it seems , yea i messed up with WoW tirion and WC3 uther ๐
@deft thicket
thanks
just a heads up for you wowhead mods or website people, i dunno bout anyone else but wowheads been 502 error gatewaying me since last night. not constantly but intermittently every so often, seems whenever i get it i just have to refresh again an it goes away but it comes an goes
cant pin it down to one page either happens on various pages
Checking on it now.
Todays 502 was before reviewing my userpage on wowhead, dont remember what on wowhead i was looking up last night probly things for various world quests or dungeon quests and id get 502 gateways an have to refresh 1-2x to get the pages to load
I can add to that, some pages are loading slower than others... that seems intermittent as well.
Gamer, are you experiencing the 502s? or a slower loading time
slowing loading time which is probably causing the 502s, something could be slowing down within the server of the website which in turns could be causing the 502s.
Ok, so you are getting 502s then
I got 1 over the last couple days
I'm just trying to narrow it down because we made adjustments yesterday
and while we get reports about slow loading times, 502s are highly unusual and something we take different steps to fix
we made some adjustments yesterday, so if you are still experiencing them today that will help. if you experienced it a few days ago, our fix may have changed things
Ah, I'm just experiencing slow load speeds today
The Discord Community Server list has been updated, for anyone interested: http://www.wowhead.com/discord-servers -- all links should be current. ๐
Could anyone explain how i make chat only accessible to webhook so nobody writes on it? just took webhook for wowhead news but its still writeable to other people
hmm
@teal dragon will we have some more privileges to reputation people at some point? I Know Free Prem is quite alot already
or anyone on the site really who knows about these things
@verbal sky I don't see any more perks being added any time soon. As you already stated, free Premium is a very good reward, and next to that, I can't think of any additional perks that could be added short of random cosmetic fluff.
Did you have any specific perks you thought would be a good addition?
random cosmetic fluff!
maybe some random cosmetic flavors to your profile yea, then again they would be probably be in lower tier ๐
and to begin with with too many additional perks your own profile just might get messy. Should always think before suggesting something ๐
Never hurts to bring up suggestions. And I'm not the one to decide on the sort of matters, but knowing how busy the developers are I think chances of anything like this being implemented are very slim.
Is there a way to report duplicate videos or videos no longer available on the site?
@steel oxide Not currently, no. Feel free to make a thread in Wowhead Feedback with a link to the video(s) and the issue, and someone will look into it.
Thank you, sas148 helped me with it already.
Perculia, was speaking with sas148 and was told you would be the one to ask about this. Would it be possible on ensembles to include what items are learned by adding "contains" and links to the items?
If you look at comments section http://www.wowhead.com/item=151118/ensemble-obsidian-prowlers-garb#comments you can see where a user listed the items contained for this one, but on most (especially pvp ensembles) this is not the case. Thanks. Also, is there any way that the sets on wowhead could use the same id's as the gear sets in wow?
#latest-news-old is slow or dead
Cant test my webhook either atm due to it being so slow ๐
there's an issue preventing the webhook from working at all, the alerts are not delayed, they can't be processed. we are having someone look at this now
Ok, Discord alerts should be fixed. sorry for the inconvenience
@steel oxide Evidently it would require all manual work to add that information, which we don't have the capability to do, especially with frequent new content on the PTR, etc. Hopefully users will take the time to report the items received via a comment. I know some do, as you mention, but some don't. Eventually one would hope a comment will get added for all of them. ๐ If we can find the time/resources to do it we'll certainly try, but, no promises.
I'm having probelms updating my profile (via the profiler... it's been in queue for 4 hours now).. is it wowhead or armory problem?
Secondly.. is there any way to use Wowhead to only show achievements a certain character has not done? I've changed mains and I'm redoing all achievments, but all (many?) of the says they're already done as I've done them on my main.
Hmm, I don't see anything in the queue.
Can you link the profile?
Also, any account wide achievements will show as completed automatically, regardless of character.
this is the profle: http://www.wowhead.com/list=665811/eu-neptulon-stonne#4-achievements
And you said it was in queue for 4 hours? Where did you see that?
I see it was last updated ~4 hours ago. I just did a new update, it's now updated ~30 seconds ago.
So many cogs involved in these processes, so hard to always know what the problem is (or rather where).
btw.. anyone know of any problems with the "quest" on how to empower your artifact? I'm AK40 (from main AK book), artifact is lvl 54 (can't put more points into it) and I've done the Broken Shore questline... what am I missing?
"There are seven questlines, providing variation among roles and specializations. You can pick up this quest after earning 35 traits on an artifact weapon and reaching AK 26. The quest starts from The Broken Shore: Investigating the Legion and Khadgar encourages you to find Mysterious Runebound Scroll from a random mob on the Broken Shore."
https://www.wowhead.com/empowered-artifact-traits-in-patch-7-2 should provide more details
Thanks for the info sas148. Im sure we can get some info added as the addon i work on is having to get the lists for the ensembles anyway.
Feedback on the attunements thing -- could we get wowhead.com/attunements as a redirect to it? Was what I assumed it was when typing it in on my second pc, and takes v little effort to get a redirect that'll save some people some time.
@rancid crater It's there, just minus the s: http://www.wowhead.com/attunement
I guess attunements would make more sense though, I'll see if that's something we can adjust.
Okay, both links should work now.
is the site down?
Not for me
nor me
I'm premium member for a month, where is my color on discord

Hello friends
I would like to ask about the Warlock final artifact I dont have them on my weapon and i cant find the Quest for it could u help me
not site related but i can help you come #retail-wow
I have a problem with character profiles. There are some "dead" (deleted, transfered, renamed) profiles attached to my account, but I can't delete them. That's annoying.
yeah i just got up getting the same Gamer74123
Call me Gamer lol ๐ but I'm glad I'm not the only one... I know it's been a problem lately with the bad gateway
will do!
seems to be working again
The site became slow or unresponsive for some people, our operations team made some adjustments and it has improved. Sorry for interruption.
allgood here, give them cookies ๐ช
Random quick question. Does anyone have a good estimate of how many profiles there are on the Wowhead Profiler? Can't seem to find a statistic.
Id say too many to say rly i mean you can make custom profiles these days aswell. ๐
http://www.wowhead.com/list/eu-darksorrow-wowhead?r=1503316566265
I can still see my old permabanned on WoWhead btw, kinda neat ๐
going bit offtopic here but has anyone heard about Blizz changing their policy about bans? i heard they dont permaban anymore but instead use 6month banning system as that is more effective.
I could not find any blue about it when i tried as i see no reason to reopen my old wounds/tickets if that policy has not been changed in anyway
i keep getting thrown out of the site, http error 500, happens more then a working link. and i dont have anything like this at others sites. it this known already?
Yep, I have the same problem. Came here to see if I was alone
eh mar gad cant go to the site send help , where im supposed to upload my pics now, Phub ๐ฆ ?
actually it happens only to some parts of the site atm
for example: http://www.wowhead.com/item=142367
looking into it
Since when my pictures were approved instantly? did you recruit Electic Rats just now ๐ ?
I'm just that quick!
But yeah, just coincidence that I was going through the queue when you were submitting.
Don't expect this to be the new standard ๐
Site should be better for most everyone now.
yea was able to enter those parts of site again.
I'm running into errors while trying to search quests on the site
@buoyant panther do you have any specific evidence of actual malware being distributed from our site? I grant you, the ads can bog down the browser at times or be disruptive in other ways, like redirects, but malware? None that I'm aware of. If you have any specific details please send them to feedback@wowhead.com so we can investigate. If you're just seeing site disruptive ads, please click feedback at the top and select bad advertisement. Thank you!
The earlier 500 errors had nothing to do with any attacks, DDOS or otherwise. Let's not speculate these things please.
What was the problem then?
Not any sort of attack... that's all that's relevant here.
is it just me or does the site page ads sometimes loads up a scam page?
I don't usually go to wowhead without logging on so i would not know. if that happens just report it to wowhead
for bad ads
Yea, redirects happen, unfortunately. If you can get back and then click Feedback -> Bad Advertisement, we may be able to catch it in the data automatically sent.
If not, you can visit mb.zam.com/mb/History from the same browser/computer and send the data to feedback@wowhead.com so we can try to find it.
wow...
โค you wowhead team ๐
just a quick one, the white model bug on the dressing room, is that a processing bug? I only seem to get it on the PTR version and usually only after I change race
ok, for clarification, Human monk alliance tier 21 pvp set, changed the weapons (looks great) http://ptr.wowhead.com/dressing-room#Vz0a0zJ89s8Oi7MOim808Ofh808Oio87kOw4808OiR808OiM808Ow2808Tlr808Tlr808N linked from the article
checnged the race, cos well, panda... and http://ptr.wowhead.com/dressing-room#Vp0a0zJ89s8Oi7MOim808Ofh808Oio87kOw4808OiR808OiM808Ow2808Tlr808Tlr808N
I see that on the human myself.
yeah if you refresh on teh human one it happens too
it's probably a known bug, just wanted to drop some info
drops info, walks out
picks up info, leaves
damn litterbugs
is the home page messed up for anyone else?
getting "news error" on few browsers i tried
oh ok
We're working on it, someone is being crazy
cheers for the heads up Perc
evil intent or just a bad coder?
seems benign but I'd like to keep things vague so we don't give people information
sounds good ๐
Ok front page should be back
Yep yep...TY โค
it is, great job
Guys. Need a guide for pvp sub rogue. Better if basic and with explanation of skills in pvp. I have no issue with pve. But after so long I've lost my touch. And I just get lost in the skill description for some reason.
Best if you link it as a dm, please and thank you.
Ferorius, theres a brtilliant guide section on wowhead, use the Guides pull down menu and have a good look through ๐
if you need a general PvP guide there is
That's completely general. And already read it. But I just can't find a guide for a pvp sub rogue. All I see is pve, pve and pve again.
I just need a general explanation of skill usage in pvp scenario. Haven't found anything like that.
And I've looked through multiple sites. And even if I find one. It's usually outdated by a few tens of patches...

I somehow deal with it using addons. But I find that they make mistakes quite a lot. But either I'm that dumb or Blizzard doesn't know how to describe the skills right. I just can't get the skill usage right sometimes and it ends with me dying. Maybe it's because I've been playing only for a few weeks.
I'd recommend watching various streamers; we're looking to set up a pvp guide system though
would a pvp text channel be a good idea?
In that case a pve one would be added as well I guess... Anyway. Streamers don't really help, since their pvp is usually too fast to really follow.
I don't normally like to recommend this site, but since there's no WH-equivelent for the guide: https://www.icy-veins.com/wow/subtlety-rogue-pvp-guide
I've tried that. But it's based on a completely geared character. And although they write down rotations and talents. Those don't work in a pve to pvp scenario + no basic explanation of the skills. Since my pvp usually consists of fighting back the goddamn backstabbing mages and jumping warriors when I'm doing pve content.
And what's more I can write the same goddamn thing from just reading the skill and talent description. But it just doesn't work for me. Because they have no real basis. All of it is just battleground data...
That's why I feel it just doesn't work.
It's not like I can switch my talent build in a middle of a fight...
I'm sorry I can't help you more, but we've been trying to ramp up our esports coverage (you may have noticed more newsposts on it, the beginner pvp guide, and we're finalizing a tournament recap series). Your feedback on what you're looking for is something we'll definitely keep in mind as we set up pvp guides, because that's something we very much want to have as we expand esports info in general.
Ah I'll just try to deal with it myself then. If by any chance I'll be good at it in a few weeks. Well... Nvm then. Because for now I can deal with 110's who are ungeared like me. But against geared I need skills, but what skill if I can't understand some of them... But thanks for trying anyways. Thought is what counts.
Hey, maybe I'm missing something but... There don't appear to be any "Roleplaying Guides" here...? O.o
https://i.imgur.com/k6etgjq.png
Is that something you guys would consider ever adding as a category maybe?
Yo
as for screenshotting, i try to get max range out of game but 1300 Farclip distance and view distance /10 does not seem to be enough
are there some things outside of wow system where i can go even beyond?
id love to see way further than this when taking screen
I dont seem to find official Machinima tool even anymore.
As this with everything on max? I thought they drastically increased viewing distance in Legion?
Not sure which function does what, does setting 'Depth Effects' to Ultra change anything for instance?
Or is View Distance the only relevant option?
View distance should be only relevant + cant set depth effect to ultra
Not sure what else there is in that case.
:/
Is it in all zones or just that one?
Might be related to fog effects in the zone itself if it's just that one.
yea about to test it aswell is it only due to legion invasion hapening there atm
it might be due to current invasion yes.
this already looks much more decent
should live up to standards ๐
Old engine makes for kind of iffy screenshots.
ah that was not with screenshotquality thing, used lightshot
its the Discord downgrading them
Interesting.
learned to use it during my intership for helpdesk tasks and realised how awesome its to cut these pics beforehand with this program and post em trough that to wowhead.
Looks much better. I general darkish evil zones are always more foggy.
yh
Set the spooky mood?
actually its using JPEG atm il take 2 screenshots to compare diff between JPEG / PNG on lightshot.
that looks great ๐
thx ๐
PNG is always higher quality than JPG
id say depends on program but yea would be just stupid not to
Doesn't really depend on the program, but on the type of compression used for the extensions.
ah i see it was already on PNG my bad. the format only matters for uploading
anyhow, thx il try to live up with World of Warcraft settings ๐
il put this up on #no-wow-discussion
now that i remember, anyone using NVIDIA Graphic cards can always go for this if their PC can handle it .
I think this is site related
i even forgot it myself cause my GTX 660 was never able to handle it
Might have slight problem with our hands, could we raise the limit bit ๐
??
Even JPG version of wow itself wont fit to 5mb limit. i suppose this limit is still from 1080p days?
Talked this out with CalaelenDT so any mod coming to check this out can ignore this unless they got some significant Info which might be about actual progress on this or so. ๐
WE raised the limit recently; it used to be 1 MB
larger screenshots = quests/zones (without that much of cropping) still got some issues when it comes to size but i found good alternative for it thx to CalaelenDT for now.
for zones size goes to around 7-9MB with JPG or so when using screenshots of wow itself. PNG pictures are out of question when it comes to uncropped 4k pics atm
actually it seems there is actually mistake on site about it. Maxium Size says its 5MB but limit is set to 3MB
not related exactly but: https://getsharex.com/ best windows screenshot tool imo :3
Gyazo for me
Happy new rocket!
Loving the new rocket! ๐
Should probably make note of patch 7.3 background downloader is live, so people who don't play right now whom are waiting for the patch to come out, can boot up their launcher to install patch 7.3 before release
Another note - for the patch notes, The Porcupine family has been re-named to Porcupine. is incorrect, it is actually The Porcupine family has been re-named to Rodent, (Per Blizz news article)
Is there a way to update all your profiles at once?
@white plaza No, they have to be updated individually. There are limits to the # of requests we can send off to Blizzard's API and if everyone could update all of their toons in one button push it could overload those limits.
๐ฆ it is requested
I'm aware it's something some people want, and it may be something we can consider adding for Premium users... but it's just not in the cards right now.
http://www.wowhead.com/whats-new is that page going to be used ever again?
Maybe... it doesn't get many visits so it hasn't been much of a priority, for awhile, as you can see. And now that it's been so long it's kind of overly tedious to try and go back and add anything relevant for the lapsed period of time. We may just end up retiring the page.
@tawny blade @teal dragon Quick question, why most of the Riddler's Worm's pages say they were added in previous patches? http://www.wowhead.com/object=19023/page-2351#comments "Added in patch 1.12.1.17645"
I imagine they were already in the game, but they changed their content / text ?
Because they were
They were added with different names in 5.4.2 to add to the sneakiness
Hi there, Just been reading the professions post for 7.3: http://www.wowhead.com/news=266726/patch-7-3-professions-preview
And i notice for inscription it lists the Paladin Steed items as glyphs
but they aren't glyphs they are blue quality items sold by the vendor in class hall, and locked behind Concordance per spec
thanks so much for highlighting that! I did not know that
We don't necessarily have something like that, but if you install the wowhead webhook, we'll send your discord a notification when there's news. and we really do make an effort to post about holidays/limited things whenever they go up
actually wrong place to ask sorry.
Glad to have helped. :D I see a YouTube on the Steed topic has appeared
Is there any way to link your character profile to others?
@round flicker yep! we're going to make a news post about it soonish. @rotund plank what page are referring to? for something like the profiler or flying tool, anyone should be able to view the unique URL

Having trouble uploading wowhead client data (760Kb from last week's play) again. Is this a site problem or a client problem or a file size problem? (I had to reset saved variables about 2 weeks ago due to large file size & have uploaded once or twice OK since then).
Unfortunately we've determined a rewrite of the client is the only way to solve this problem... not sure how long that will take, but in the meantime, clearing the lua files should, at least temporarily, resolve it. Sorry for the inconvenience there!
So that's the +Wowhead_Looter.lua (and +Wowhead_Looter.lua.bak) file in the World of Warcraft/WTF/Account/<Account Name>/SavedVariables folders (including those for each char). Doing it now.
Any guide/blog formatting gurus out there? I'm looking to place two videos on the page side by side but the [youtube] embed doesn't seem to work in a table like an [img] would
I don't believe I've ever seen videos side by side before. :s
Yeah I checked through some but didn't spot any
Also curious about embedding tweets
Tweets should be [tweet] or [twitter] me thinks
Ah nice! Gonna try that thanks
I'm planning on updating the wowpedia page for random items suffixes. Is there a way on wowhead to search for items based on suffixes? My starting point will be updating removed stats to their current. As an example Spirit was removed in 7.0.3 and in many cases replaced by versatility, but also, as I understand, mastery in some cases. Right now I'm just accessing wowhead links through wowpedia on items I find with the suffixes to chek the updated versions, but I'm wondering if I can skip a few steps by searching for the specific suffixes. https://wow.gamepedia.com/Item_suffix
@potent fog hm didn't seem to work
hoo boy I imagine that's going to be quite the task to update, good luck
@fickle pecan You can add a filter allowing you to search for specific items that have a certain 'suffix'
Is that what you're looking for?
Ah yes thanks! I think that's exactly what I was looking for ๐
@gloomy cloud Maybe only works for news then
Yeah I'm writing a my economy wrap up which gets posted as news, trying to find an example of an embeded tweet so I can check the source
@potent fog Perc got my tweet sorted, it's [bluetweet id=XYZ] ๐
Ah, gotcha. Good to know!
Do we have leveling guide for 1-110? Found one for 1-60 ๐
60-90 is kind of a gap besides comments left on quests. we do have 100-110 though https://www.wowhead.com/leveling-from-100-110-in-legion
i see, thx
@plucky fractal Hey ive posted pics on a few Artifact Qlines ending Scenarios to wowhead and was wondering as these most of times get declined? (the one embedded in this comment) is it due to spoilers or what is the reason?
Or anyone else really but i suppose its his case to say on this
Must've been a while ago as I don't recall seeing any of those recently. I did decline a few back then for reasons that've since changed, so feel free to reupload them and I'll accept them (do crop that letterbox though).
@verbal sky
Yea removing letterboxing from those ๐ . Cheers, il upload those if ihappen to do more ArtifactWep Qlines
not really site but datamining related
I'm sure Blizzard is capable of hiding achievements from datamining, they do it for cinematics as well. I don't recall any secrets that actually had an achievement associated with them in the first place though.
i dont think he really means achievements and more the tracking stuff like for the artifacts
In that case it's obviously yes, indicated by all the secrets that had been in the game without anyone knowing about them.
Seems like limit is 5mb atleast now. ๐
for pictures. lasttime i was not able to upload pics above 3mb after all.
This is gonna bug me until I mention it - not sure if this is the place to point it out or not (first time poster, full time lurker). The recent article about GoT references in WoW left out the hag "Seersei" rare spawn in Val'sharah http://www.wowhead.com/npc=92180/seersei
hey, I'm not sure if that's meant to be a reference to her or greek mythology. I remember during beta I wrote how it was a reference to her and a lot of players felt it was not
not sure if right channel but how do I get the premium role on discord if I bought wowhead premium?
#welcome-rules basically inform sas

the link for the monks are op in blue posts seems to be broken... click source and goes to this https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/news/17616802545 - should go to this https://eu.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/17616802545#post-16
So I Was Purging a few scourge Fiends Within Brill At the night when a monk attacked me i were Within Protection So I Mannaged to get him to 30% within his power health when he begin to almost one shot me then i Used My Holy Powers To Teleport myself away to safety. But Litterly Monks they're way too op. Not only did he healed to full health. No but he also dpsed as a frost mage can.
Salty Paladin lol
it seems like some of the achievements arent showing properly on the site
http://www.wowhead.com/throne-of-thunder#achievements <main zone for throne of thunder doesnt show lei shens achievement 'a complete circuit
While Lei Shen is in range of a Lightning Conduit he powers it, granting him an additional ability specific to that Lightning Conduit. The energy level of the Conduit increases the longer Lei Shen charges it, increasing damage dealt by the granted ability. When the Conduit's power reaches 100 energy, it will increase the level of the Conduit, and the Conduit's power will reset to 0.
changing difficulty on loot tab doesnt (and shouldnt) affect the achievements page
i have to go to http://www.wowhead.com/pandaria-raid-achievements
and filter in 'throne of thunder' to actually see all achievements properly
So how come any time that I go on the wowhead website it logs me off wow? I get disconnected only when I go on wowhead no other time
Yo... Any particular reason the wowhead client won't run on startup unless it's in the downloads directory? Like, is that intended behavior?
hey I've got a question, idk if I'm just dumb or this isn't working right, but uh, you know the new armor ensembles coming in 7.3? I want to preview them in the dressing room but idk how. view in 3d doesn't work, and idk what to type in the "equip transmog set" thingy to see them
@stoic carbon ensembles are not equippable items, the dressing room doesn't support users selecting an ensemble and then having the gear pop up. As far as transmogs, it's all manual work and we haven't gotten around to it yet. Hopefully in the next month or so we'll find the time. ๐
@quick sapphire Try running as administrator, it shouldn't need to be in the download directly.
@winged trellis All I can hypothesis here is that your internet bandwidth is getting bogged down. Try closing out of the page if you experience issues and/or closing the ads by clicking the little gray button on the upper right edge of the site if you plan to sit on a page for awhile. This may help the behavior you describe.
@arctic cairn Not sure why that would be happening but we'll look into it.
alrighty, tyvm for the response Sas ๐
when wowhead show off ensembles in news posts, Perc and the team are usually cool enough to link a dressing room version, however in the dressing room, you can search for the ensemble name for each piece and usually find them, if you can't @stoic carbon, ask one of us in #transmog and sure we can help ๐
@teal dragon Hey, thanks for the response, but I mean specifically at startup. It runs from other locations fine when I run it manually, but even when I have the option checked to run it at startup, it only does that when it's in the DL directory.
is the site down for anyone else?
no
It's working fine for me
rip
Hi. Trying to access the http://www.wowhead.com/sounds/name:High+King+Maulgar but all the sounds won't play. And I can't download. I'm using Chrome. Any help would be appreciated.
@viral apex Sounds don't play for me either. Seems to be a global error.
^Me neither...
@teal dragon regarding the error 500s on the blue tracker list, it seems now it's multiple of them and not just 1
I made a ticket for it. The first source should work at least, it's the 2+ that's the issue.
(Deleted)
Why does it show that ๐ค
It's probably a comment on the PTR version of the site. Switch to PTR and it'll likely show up.
Still doesn't show up but other links have ptr in front of them now
Someone has probably already suggested it but in case it was not: The active fisher friend of the isles is probably a good addition to "Today in Broken Isles" (It's Keeper Raynae on EU right now)
We've swapped the site over to have 7.3 data instead of 7.2.5. It seems this has caused some hiccups on the front page. The news section is temporarily missing, but you can access the survival guide and the argus guide from the announcement with the purple background, as well as the "patch 7.3" menu
I was booted out of my account and now it seems I can't login... Can someone help me?
These ads are killing me lol I can see why people are freaking over them, this is way worse than before I got premium...
It may be related to what I just said above
OK, hopefully it gets fixed shortly, freaked me out for a second
Some parts of the site appear to be down or slow after adding 7.3 data to the main site
Ha, I just came here to say the same thing, looks like Blizzard account login is broken but I was able to get in with my ZAM account
I can't get in with either logins
Also @tawny blade this may be a cache issue, but search results are still coming from the 7.2.5 data
it was switched literaly minutes ago so you'll need to clear cache in order to immediately get updates
if you aren't sure what to do, I recommend going to the PTR argus guide from earlier today and clickign around on the links there
Error!
The database is not available at this time. Please try again later. Get this error when I go to the main site.
It's being worked on. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Np just wanted to let you all know incase it wasn't.
Of course, thank you!
Site is beginning to return to normal. @arctic cairn @sullen viper @stoic acorn
Just uploaded my data via the client! Included a bunch of Argus stuff in the bunch
Hopefully it'll help, since there was stuff there that definitely isn't listed on Wowhead
Thank god for this discord, I was trying to upload data and couldn't get it up, couldn't find anything about it - check here, oh thank you all for existing
The site stable now?
Hey, not sure if this is the right channel to post my question in so sorry in advanced if I'm wrong! Where can I find the patch 7.3 quest line guide? I think I saw it on the site when I entered the giveaway but can't retrieve it again! Thanks!
Try that.
if you have the purple announcement bar still activated, you should see it there. Or the "patch 7.3" menu on the navigation bar that's marked with Argus the planet
Yeah I scrolled through but I swear I saw something that detailed every quest in a particular order
the survival guide should recommend the comprehensive argus guide a ton
that's the link
thanks so much!!
i think i skipped over a quest and ive been lost for an hour now!
much appreciated!
Could you add which daily fishingmaster is up once the rotation is defined?
Yep, that's on our to do list
Is there a way to see the dailies for WoD?
Like what's up now? Or just a list of possible dailies?
What's up now.
There used to be a "Today in Draenor" but after Legion launch not enough people were going to Draenor anymore to upload accurate data
Bummer.
can we already record wich fishing guy is up daily?
or is there another way to track it
Adding the Fishermongers to Today in Broken Isles is on Wowhead's to-do list for Patch 7.3.
Several of the guides under Guides -> Patch 7.3 are still linking to ptr.wowhead.com, which can lead to confusion if you then try to go elsewhere on the site (like the character profiler) from there ๐
Does anyone know if there is going to be a wowhead weekly today?
They are linking to PTR.wowhead.com after the instability affecting the live site yesterday
we will probably change them over soon
@sullen viper Yes ๐
@sullen viper and others, Twitch seems to be down so, not sure now what's happening.
๐ We're looking into issues with the site not loading for users. Apologies again for the issues. ^RSS
well good luck guys, I'll catch on youtube if you manage it
Seems they're going to record something, just won't be a live show.
Have a good ones Lones ๐
aye, back to work for me, can't slack off now ๐
Everyone: Wowhead Weekly is being filmed right now, but since Twitch is down, we can't do it live. We'll post it on YouTube and the site as we usually do. Sorry for those who usually hang out with us live, but we appreciate your understanding. ๐
@teal dragon afraid it's not returning back to normal, it's still not letting me login... It will every once in a while but then I refresh and boots me out again...
You always seem to have issues longer than others Gamer. You noticed that? lol
Have you cleared all your cache/cookies?
lmfao I guess so and yes I did
Are you running extensions that might be tampering with the site?
I lost out on 50 rep last night and who knows how many more and I may miss out on my 365 consecutive visits... I'm so sad ๐ฆ
Pfft I can fix that, don't worry...
The only extension I have is adblock and that's disabled for wowhead
If it's running at all it could be interfering, disabled for a specific site or not.
Try disabling it entirely to see what impact that has.
Did that just now and restarted chrome and still get Invalid login or password
Wait, it's saying invalid? I just assumed you couldn't stay logged in or had an issue with the login page.
It's actually giving you an error.
Yes, if i keep trying it'll eventually let me in but then it'll boot me out so my info is correct... Just something is wonky
I didn't do shit lol
Hopefully you can fix that...
FYI: An ad did this and I'm not sure which one... I can't seem to close it now...
You're gone. Lost forever. Faire well.
And now my computer just froze so I can't send the pic... But I was forwarded to a Microsoft site that said I had a virus then froze my computer
๐ฆ stupid phishing redirects.
Yeah... Wowhead was the only thing open...
Gamer, bookmark this page and just use it for now while we're testing: https://www.wowhead.com/account=signin
Oh I don't doubt it came from our end... hense my sadness.
well, our end, as in our ad providers. 
But if you just visit https://www.wowhead.com/account=signin directly there aren't any ads.
Same error?
yes
ok
Emissaries added in 7.3 are now tracked on Today in Broken Isles
Are the Wowhead Discord Emojis available for Download somewhere? So I can ask a friend to import them to our server and use them without buying Discord Nitro ๐
I don't have any of the original files, we've just uploaded them as appropriate since we started. Discord doesn't give me any real way to download or save the existing ones either. ๐
Oh indeed you can. ๐

Might be some duplicates but that should be all of 'em. Right click, Open Link, save 'em and do what you will.
Yeah, friend just told me to send him the image files, so I guess it's per-file anyway ๐ thanks guys!
Site may be unstable for a few minutes, we're running something to hopefully make further updates smoother
^Whatever you did, resolved my booting out constantly finally...
we processed live data again, shouldn't necessarily have been related but glad it fixed it ๐
Would it be best to submit a "gif" as a video instead for an example of showing the spell effect?
currency amounts, vendors, start/end quest npcs, drops, gathering tabs should all be showing up now. working on getting some npcs to drop
it currently doesn't support gifs at the current time, but you can add a video
(also sorry for interrupting the messages. I accidentally sent my message before you finished)
Ok, maps should now be showing up. may need to clear cache
I can finally log in on the website again! โค
^HAH! See @teal dragon I wasn't the only one... lol
You could log in, you just weren't staying logged in, kinda different ๐
Oh, well, I guess originally you had issues with the login. Nevermind ๐คท
@tawny blade I think 2 words have been swapped in the 7.3 undocumented changes, when talking about the heirlooms and pre-Draenor gear: I think instead of "useful specs for all stats", it should probably be "useful stats for all specs"
@bold umbra all fixed. Appreciate the catch. One polite note, try not to ping anyone specifically if at all possible, especially in the middle of the night... could cause undo stress thinking something major is happening. ๐
Sas doesn't sleep ๐ He just has a week off each year
can i ask why the rogue tier 21/pvp gear does not show the 3d elements on chest...?it is the game files right???
Hi - Racksup Greep has been located as part of the Lucid Nightmare puzzle. His comments pages contain a lot of comments relating to the Yeti (which used to have this NPC ID). Could an admin please move Yeti comments to the new correct page please? http://www.wowhead.com/npc=13602/racksum-greep#comments
Blood DK link is broken in the new post
@bright snow Isn't that what the "Out of date" report option is for? Although reporting 74 comments would be rather tedious...
@bright snow Thanks for the heads-up, I'll be cleaning up the page of the outdated information shortly.
The Blue Tracker refers to the wrong forum post on the EU forum if trying to look at the source post from a non english speaking part of the world. http://eu.battle.net/forums/wow/topic/17616752839#1 refers to https://eu.battle.net/forums/XX/wow/topic/17616752839#1 where XX is the local language, automaticly detected. If that isn't english (en) you get a 404 error
Hey. To people that want to have the Unborn Val'kyr its time now since the new patch just released most of the players are doing current content so its a big chance you can get it. It spawns all around northrend i would recommend downloading an addon for petbattles or looking on Youtube for the spawn locations
you can correct the link, but it's annoying
Is there any cases its okay to ping Blizzard employees here?
For example https://eu.battle.net/support/en/article/recruit-a-friend-faq
Has not been working for weeks now.
Id like toget actual confirmation from blizz or anyone who has raffed past month is 300% xp now up to 100 or not
would be better to ask @blizzardcs on twitter
last time i personally PMED goat he did not even respond me ๐
porbably gets spammed alot
who deals with screenshot submissions guys?
@plucky fractal
cheers
You can also try @timber vault
@pale sluice Give me a specific link and I'll look into it. Thanks ๐
@bright snow There's no functionality to "move" comments from one page to another. @plucky fractal is/was/did take care of marking them as out of date though.
@icy nebula link has been fixed.
๐บ
@harsh crest We're aware this happens with some blue tracker posts. Something we'll have to look into when time permits. In the meantime, the first Source link should work and you can then scroll to the blue responses.
@violet condor
https://www.wowhead.com/unholy-death-knight-raid-tips#talent-builds-defile
Defile talent tree is missing and/or has been replaced by an ad
@teal dragon it doesn't work for any EU forum link, you have to manually correct all links (as i said, no a giant problem but annoying). Sure, it works when using the link fron a browser that detects your language as english, but doesn't for any other language. Instead of linking to http://eu.battle.net/forums/wow/topic it should be https://eu.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/.
Anything I can do for you @scenic panther ?
The giveaway at the bottom of this page http://www.wowhead.com/patch-7-3-shadows-of-argus-survival-guide doesn't seem to be working.
https://www.wowhead.com/guide=new - some links are missed, such as "Currency", "Titles", "Transmog set" etc
hey guys, do we really need both the tweet AND the bot posting about a new article in #latest-news-old ? seems a little redundant
It's redundant when it's the same info, I don't disagree, I added it as part of Jeeves integration with this server, but I may remove it, or give it it's own channel where we could monitor other important WoW Twitter accounts.
@white plaza looks okay on my end. It uses JavaScript so you may want to make sure it's not being blocked by something.
I log in using either email or twitter and nothing happens after that.
With the Premium account, should I still be getting ads?
@mystic sphinx No
That's the point of premium :p
I figured. But I am having issues and wasn't sure if this was the best place to ask or not.
Does anyone know who I should contact?
Ok I am trying to figure out how to use this site... why are all but this one "read only"?
Re tweets: yeah it seems redundant for news ATM. Maybe should just enable it during PTR when we do more tweets than posts
PTR should be coming Soonโข also if past patches this expansion have shown anything, although I expect it to take much longer this time since apparently this is our final major raid and whatnot.
the tweet addon could cover blizz tweets instead?
Btw, when I mark a comment as out of date, this is all it shows. Inspecting the content shows something along the lines of "Comment added to the out of date queue.", but most people probably don't know to do that ๐. Monitor resolution is 1600x900 when the comment was marked, moving the window to a 1920x1080 monitor doesn't fix the display.
yeah, it's an unfortunate byproduct of the fixed side bar that we've not gotten around to resolving. But you're right, that's what it's saying. Sorry for any trouble caused. I'm sure we'll polish that kind of thing up some day.
Just wanted to make sure it was a known issue ๐
haha ๐ Yeah, I try to use someday instead of soon sometimes... because little things like this pop up that aren't likely to get fixed until some spare time is found, which seems like never these days.
more people need premium, then the team will grow
Yeah, so let's say we get another 6-10k people, maybe we can hire someone else with funds obtained from Premium? ๐
easily done
can you add which of the new 7.3 fishing people is up to the today in broken isles menu on the main page?
I would love you forever
i'm a premium member too if that matters
and a capricorn too
We plan to do just that.. as soon as we're settled from the patch.
Thanks! โค 
Hi, i have a question, how can i contribute to translate guide to french when they are already in english ?
Hi. You want to translate English guide to French?
Can the extended search be case sensitive ? For example I'd like to find mentions (in quest names, quest texts, gear pieces..) of "old gods" or "old god" (and not "Old God" or "Old Gods"). @tawny blade
Btw I think I pinned my reply that fisherfriends was high prio :p want to do it after settting up invasion bosses
@scenic panther Last wednesday to be exact
huh? what did I need pinging for?
hey team, after chatting about collected transmog sets in #retail-wow, made me wonder, any chance we could get an update tot he profile page that includes tier set unlocks?
It's difficult for us to justify adding things that require multiple steps on the user's end to track. That turns off many players, as we saw with the wardrobe tool - people got fed up, or messed up some of the steps, and thought the tool didn't work. We can request Blizzard add an API so we can track it easily though
would be cool for the future, just an idea while we were chatting earlier ๐
thanks for the reply too
[quote AlakeiThancan]Hey there wowhead team, sorry to bother you through these comments but I don't know how to report a bug any other way :p Your "weekly recap" (with all the active emissary quests, mythic progression etc) is kinda broken at the moment, at least for EU realms. It's showing the mage tower at 54% construction, when it's actually at 9%. That's all I needed to report :p - posted 7 hours ago on the copa america closing recap - just want to pass it along ๐
Fixed by dirtside
was there a reason why Smaller Zones were removed from the database at the some point?
I don't think that zone is in the game. Subzones like https://www.wowhead.com/zone=2300/caverns-of-time still work
Possible Blizzard wrapped it into another zone?
I suppose that could have happened
I suppose it is part of https://www.wowhead.com/the-cape-of-stranglethorn Now
Hey Sas, on Wowhead, do I still have premium? For some reason it's showing me I don't but ads aren't showing... So I'm kinda lost lol just want to see if it's just me or if I indeed lost premium for some odd reason
I did try the update but when I post it's not showing the different color or the premium tag
Do you have an example post? Everything shows fine on my end.
OK, may just be me... I'll clear my cache and see what happens
Sometimes the preview won't show right but it usually corrects itself upon posting.
you still have prem icon atleast.
Ah clearing my cache worked... After posting I didn't see the tag but clearing my cache worked... alls good ๐
