We gotta be careful what beans we spill in here as Ythisens is now showing us, he does watch us ๐
(โฏยฐโกยฐ๏ผโฏ๏ธต โปโโป
Lol called it
yeah, I did
@scenic panther summoned them by uttering "Blizz" ๐
๐ฎ
why did wowhead even post that mount article.... wtf
all its doing is just causing pure rage now
News is news... it's not as if we knew Blizzard would disable it.
@teal dragon Uhm i am on LIVE on the website but it tells me certain trinkets can be bought of the PTR Trinket vendor:
http://www.wowhead.com/item=140030/devilsaur-shock-baton&bonus=1826:1497#sold-by
because we got data from the PTR, we'll mark that npc is not in game
oooh ๐ alrighty
another night, another ptr build?
Tried looking all over the site, but can't figure it out ... how to we submit a request to have an NPC's pin on a map moved to the correct location?
You might link it here? I am guessing pins comes from client reports
Back during Hallow's Eve I submitted corrections for all the incorrect Candy Bucket locations but was told they weren't sure how to actually fix it. (I submitted feedback and selected bug as the type for each one.)
It's for Sha of Anger. The pin is in the wrong place on the map, but the coordinated under the map are correct.
The site still says he can be in different locations, but I think in Legion they made him spawn in the same place every time
Yeah, they made him a permanent spawn point. It's where the coordinates are, just to the southwest of One Keg.
Yes, they changed it half way thru the legiosn because it would die faster than most people could get to it
Which was ... frustrating
Yeah, there were 12-15 of us sitting there when it spawned. I think everyone did a normal tag shot first, cause his health wasn't moving, then about 5 seconds later it started going down. I'm pretty sure we all got to tag him.
I think that the other thing they added, that first attach don't do dmg
I noticed that on gaeelon I was literally the only one there and it took 2-3 seconds before his health moved
On a... 110, I hope not?
I think she was 107 or 108 at the time
when i was farming galleon a few month ago, it never lived longer then 3 minutes. always several people there
How does the winterveil giveaway work with respect to account-wide achievement? Do I need to track down and enter with the character that initially obtained the achievement?
The page says to have done 3 of them on the char that enters the contest. Only the meta is account wide, the others are not.
i'm pretty confident it's a false positive, but i want to notify that Avast is reporting wowhead as infected with this
(sorry for the moonspeak)
yeah Avast can be overly causious with javascript
Pretty much this, just add an exception if you keep getting notifications.
Trailing [/ul] here: Only one character/entry is necessary.[/ul]. (criteria #5)
Moonspeak? Looks like Italian to me
@stray comet nope, don't need to hunt it down, as long as the verified profile you enter with has at least three of the achievements. :)
its a false positive
Im trying to update my characters on wowhead to enter the contest, but the character page keeps reloading so I can't click anything :/
try force refresh with ctrl F5
does nothing. its a character that I dont have anymore. or rather; I changed it's name
have you tried resynching your profile?
nvm, it's fixed ๐
ah good
@tawny blade Looks like the Buy Now button on the Tyrael mount page is back but it seems you can only choose Taiwan or Korea regions
they fixed the bug where it could be bought world wide i take it...
yeah I had a talk with a GM about it
apparently its being offered in those regions as those players never got a chance to get the mount due to the Diablo 3 promotion not being available to them.
Hello, Just wanted to know wheter or not it was an issue on my end, or this is just something which takes a very long time to load, but I am trying to load the Quests tab on my list section of WoW Head in order for me to track what I need to complete for the Draenor pathfinder. Was wondering if it will just take a while to load up the request or I need to do something else on my end, All of the other tabs load fine just quests never seem to load
Should be able to easily see what needs to be done for that on wowhead.com/flying
It will show Broken Isles then under that is Draenor
Yeah, I saw that too, I was just wondering why the quests section wasnt loading it was referenced in a video I watched as another good tool to use ill see if I can work out what I need to do from the flying section IDK why the quests tab isnt loading
Ill try downloaded the client and see if that helps, ty
This is what you should be seeing.
Yea I can see that
I just wondered why the quests wasnt working on the profile thingy
Finally Loaded now I dont know why it finally worked after a lot of attempts ๐
Good!
happy holliday's to everyone
๐ Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all! โ
Please note that the staff here at Wowhead & ZAM will be working at a lesser capacity throughout the rest of the year. We'll be back in full force on, or shortly after, January 2nd.
If you have any pressing issues, please utilize feedback@wowhead.com, which I'll be monitored periodically throughout the holidays. Thank you everyone! Keep warm out there.
I wish you a merry @haughty moth
@tawny blade Ogmot's diary was changed once more, it notably doesn't mention Argus at all anymore
Um, I think the #latest-news-old post needs to be changed, it's showing last year's gifts. This year we get a toy weapon set
We canโt change the preview once itโs pushed to discord. The actual post is correct though
Interesting
Ahh. Weird
how often is the loot information updated? ive been waiting for a week to see the changes on the stolen presents but seems the data is still the same
The dates in this chart are the original dates and haven't been updated for the current boss/future dates: https://www.wowhead.com/news=279261/new-events-in-wow-for-december-26-mists-of-pandaria-timewalking-warsong-scramble#world-boss-history
The broken shore towers are not correct atm for EU
currently: https://i.imgur.com/XkR9iqH.jpg
Website: https://i.imgur.com/3ItRerp.jpg
Those are updated through the wowhead client. Means that not enough people are submitting the data to update
That don't make sense
The information for towers is avaiable via API, it should not rely on humans in game to get it
API is delayed
so in 90% of the cases, it will be more accurate via the client
(was at least, early on)
I know they had said that they were working with Blizzard to do it through API but haven't heard if that has been done as of yet so I am assuming it is still by the wowhead client only
I mean nether disruptor just went up how can the client send info that it is 11% lol
Isn't it set on NA realms by mistake if you are on a EU server?
I checked and, at the moment, NA seems to match up +/- 1%. I can't check EU personally but, make sure you're looking at the right version of 'Today In...' -- it's possible it was off earlier but has since been corrected though.
Hi, I hope this is the right channel...
The ptr site is working for me, but not "live".
I think since I created an account and logged in, it is not working. Because in incongnito it is working fine.
when I load the site, I get this link: http://www.wowhead.com/g00/?i10c.encReferrer=&i10c.ua=1
I expect no, but is WW on tonight?
I believe they said, if anything, it would be something they do "not-live" this week. Though with Perc being out of state not sure if/when that's happening either. So, I'd go with no.
cool, getting an early night then cos I'm knackered
Was just checking the guide "Gearing Up Before Raids in Legion". I noticed that in the Legendary section it still mentions the legendaries are 940 - 970. But they scale up to level 1000 now. https://www.wowhead.com/legion-gearing
Cheers, I can confirm it's level 1000 now. Happy to help!
๐
Hi, do you guys plan on regrouping world quest and pvp items' models ? Because this is becoming a nightmare when going through the models in the dressing room. The way the items' version are grouped works for raid items, because they have 4 versions (lfr, normal, heroic, mythic) but for the scaling items in legion, each ilvl has its version, and so, we have tens of the same models listed...
The Nightbourne Tattoos in the dressing room is not working
Hey so they are working - but they are very faint. We have some limitations with how we handle glowy effects and that's affecting how the updated tattoos are displayed. This also explains why some of the nightborne hertiage armor parts are white or blocky
It's something we're trying to improve upon
Thank you ๐
Hmm, the site is still broken for me and I have no clue why. I even deleted cookies, cache and everything ๐ฆ
anyone can help, please?
Did you disable AdBlock?
Yes
PTR works, but not live (with or without adblock anyway)
And, I get that "/g00/?i10c.encReferrer="
rather than a proper link.
I whitelisted wowhead, but still not loading properly.
I get this ๐
Looks like that's the result of an adware on your computer, it should be affecting more than just Wowhead from some quick searches for i10c.encReferrer
@zealous beacon For example: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/chrome/4srfAIglFI0/rJlUbnZrAwAJ (if that loads ๐)
rexiyah, I reported this issue to our ad team, as it seems likely related to ads and/or your adblocker. Hopefully they'll figure something out. Thank you!
In case I don't catch you guys later, Happy New Year folks
@stoic acorn Thanks, I'll check the link and see, although I believe my computer is adware-free, but we'll see.
this machine is strictly for games, quick adware scan showed nothing. I'll do a full scan.
@teal dragon thanks for the reply ๐ I responded to the email and will communicate there (unless you prefer to do it over discord). I appreciate your help ^_^
I doubt it is an adware, because i tried different machines (4 to be specific), and they all suffer the same issue.
Funny enough, the PTR works fine, but not the Live version.
https://gyazo.com/cc0311d92262ac951a17c76c9a27f129 I dont think the "summons" is quite right xD
what's wrong with it?
the summon says cloud serpent
OH right the summons TAB
I thought there was like. a typo in the tooltip or something
That under "related"
the spell data itself says it summons that thing
but i dont know if it could be still ptr data. no idea in what ranges they get updated
This red is really really bright. Any way it could all be like the background on the quests section?
finish off that rep then never need to look again?
The only problem is, if that is that bright, 1 more section being added would be insanely bright.
Honestly the color seems reasonable... I don't think it really warrants changing. If more people express similar opinions we could consider it though.
@teal dragon just maybe worth posting about rogues gettinng changes on multilate and fan of knives its on the wow devs twitter and according to rogue class discord these changes are already in only bo official patch notes
I kind of agree with @arctic cairn. Pale text on a darker background is eye-hurting.
Recently on Wowhead we've added search results improvements for key topics. For example when you search for "Allied Races" you now get suggested hand-picked results against a nice backdrop, instead of just the usual 'no results found' with a list of news items 'powerd by google' underneath. The idea is to give you immediately relevant content for important topics in an easier to find format which is easily customizable by us. For example: https://www.wowhead.com/search?q=allied+races (image below).
We love this new search functionality and want to know what other topics YOU think should get this treatment. It's very easy for us to set up, so please share your suggestions (e.g. I'd like to be able to search for "Battle for Azeroth" and see this kind of customized search page!).
@everyone Sorry, this ping isn't a giveaway, and we don't ping lightly, but we could use your suggestions to improve search functionality. Take a look at the post above and send us your suggestions. Please only post if you have a suggestion so it's easier for us to follow. Thank you! For those of you only really interested in pings for giveaways, there's only about 24 hours left in our Winter Veil giveaway, so make sure you get yourself entered: http://www.wowhead.com/contest=wowheads-2017-winter-veil-giveaway!
Alliance and Horde should get separate pages such as that
Class Guides and Holidays seem like an easy choice. I'd have more to say elsewhere but chat bouncing and going offline is annoying.
To be fair, lately iโve only used wow head for quests and lfr
Please only post if you have an actual suggestion about what was mentioned above. If you really want to discuss pings, their appropriateness, etc., use the #no-wow-discussion -- I'll now be forced to mute/kick/ban if necessary. ๐
probably profession guides
realted transmogs would be cool
Think of it in search terms though, what would you search for and what would you hope to get as a result.
I wish there was a better way to search through the icons and sound effects, specifically with regards to use in addons like TotalRP + Extended, since sometimes what I'm looking for isn't what's in the title... like, little tags like 'cat' or 'eyes'
I always find that getting to the user created xmog outfits is a major pain in the ass
Appreciate that Cannon, but that's not really what we're talking about here. To be clear, we're talking about the main search bar and any major topics you'd want to search for to get relevant results. Examples are: https://www.wowhead.com/search?q=allied+races and http://www.wowhead.com/search?q=Battle+for+Azeroth.
@woeful mulch Should be able to just bookmark http://www.wowhead.com/outfits to access them quickly.
@teal dragon Search suggestion: The site Guildox used to be a site [many years ago] where you could look at ANY LEVEL character and find a list of gear upgrades for that character / level / slot - prioritized by stats. The Wowhead database has this information, but it is a true hassle to now obtain this -any level - easy to obtain - list.
Key lore events? โThe Sunderingโ, etc. Might be more of a wiki thing though
Maybe class searches. Eg, you search 'warrior' and you get a bunch of relevant guides and info related to that class
We are looking into making it so if you do a search for a class you'll get relevant results, similar to what you get from the drop down under that class icon on the site header.
Individual classes and classes in general I hope
Esp if these search result pages can be indexed (not sure if they can)
@plucky fractal I've set up a page for Legion Raid, is something like this what you have in mind? https://www.wowhead.com/search?q=legion+raid
@worldly marten Here's a sample page for windwalker monk guides. let us know if you like that format for specs https://www.wowhead.com/search?q=windwalker+monk
it should be arranged by most recent one first
WW Monks looks pretty good. My original point about class guides was more if you searched "Class guide[s]", though, bringing up the basic one for each class (not sure if that many results fit).
I could try and see what that looks like. in general I try to limit this to 3-6 results but I can try adding more
I can also add a search result for Monk, which would like to the basic page for brewmaster, mistweaver, and windwalker
any chance ya'll could turn down the achievement noise on the site, nothing like waking up half the house cause you get +5 upvote on some random page ๐
I think if there would any option to search on armor of a certain color. I know it's already there in the filters, but i've really got the idea it isn't working properly yet. So maybe if it would be possible to have a filter for brownish, blue, white. I know this would be a major task since it would probably needed to be selected by hand.
What I mean by this is I mostly make transmogs with a certain color type, but I have trouble scrolling through the giant list of items. When adding the filter for example "#FFFFFF" I don't get the results I would like.
mmmm
@fresh mason Not sure volume can be adjusted on our end but you can disable the sound entirely here: https://www.wowhead.com/account
I'd like if I search for BfA I get Battle for Azeroth results. I guess. I suppose if I add BfA it could also work as a default "added in expac" if I type "battle pet BfA" for example.
Unfortunately three character searches aren't supported by our search engine to help ensure site stability. Any three character searches are ignored outside Google search results.
I see, oh well.
Artifact hidden skin
Maybe if someone searched for a trainer and then it could show All Flight Trainers, All Mage Trainers, etc? Or perhaps world bosses? They could be sorted by expansion or zone?
Could this function somehow help with sorting out links that result in โlocation unknownโ? For example, I search for an NPC by name, get 7 results, but only two are actually in the game. The other 5 just slow me down from finding what Iโm looking for. The links that are actually relevant could also be sorted for which expansion they are from so you donโt have to click each one to find the one you want.
Some suggestions for the search result improvement :
-
Collections (Battle pets / Mounts / Toys)
-
In-game events (annual, micro holidays, ...)
-
I also saw "key lore events" mentioned above, it would be great with your Nobbel's lore articles !
edit : also Draenor and Legion pathfinder, with links to the guides, planners, and sub-achievements.
My suggestion is moving search results to show up under the search bar instead of over the top of it. Both chrome and safari displays results over the text box.
hi
well, yesterday I typed in "fishing guide" and the only thing that came up was the draenor fishing guide item... it would be nice to be able to search for guides?
skaste oloi !
Raid tactics
@dense bloom I think the main search bar defaulrs to items, however in teh Guides pulldown menu, I usually choose Professions, then in that offering, use teh search bar there for what profession I'm looking for
but yeah, those Draenor items don't help ๐
What about patches, that could show up the survival guide, "the returning players" guide and others for the big features of the patch
@junior moon yo fix your log in screen, it's telling me to check a captcha box, but there is none to be seen.
hmmmmmmmmm
I sent you a screenshot
I'd like to be able to log in to get in the contest preferrably before the contest ends. any ETA on when that will get fixed?
site devs should be up in 1-2 hours
I can't say anything about ETA for such thing. I'm sorry that I can't provide any more information about it but I will poke also @teal dragon if he have any information about this
have u by any chance try to use other browser ? or u are always getting captcha ?
Always getting captcha.
odd I can't trigger that on my side
wait
u are on signup page ?
u want to make account
or login ?
can u try to login over https://www.wowhead.com/account=signin page ?
Now its saying my username doesn't exist?
This might be TOO specific or a poor example, but last week, when the mage tower was up, I was trying to see what characters I wanted to prioritize since my main finally had her main appearance, so I searched "artifact challenge appearances" remembering that there was a guide that collected all of them in one place. The guide was the first hit under Did You Mean, but it seemed a bit silly to me
likewise, I had a hell of a time finding--and actually wound up picking my husband's brain for an answer--how to get into MoP LFRs post-content (i.e. taking my 110 shaman back for the LFR ToT colouration). Maybe adding LFR to the tags for the NPCs that let you queue LFR. I know the official term is Raid Finder, and that would've pulled up the NPC, but I couldn't come up with that keyword and LFR is common community parlance for that difficulty level, as well as being used in certain gear identifying strings
that data is gathered automatically from raider.io, you probably have an extension blocking it. Here is how it shows for me:
Does it show american world firsts?
i dont think the list goes that far down
it shows worldwide first
"american world first" thats not what WORLD first means
I always thought the different regions were seperated for world first
Like the notification and shit you get in game
the in game notification is for realm first
Not quite, when kosmoth and spite dartling were spawned first time there was notification for american world firsts
that wasnt a world first that was a ingame event
like before the first person did that kosumeth wasnt even there he didnt exist
sooo.. world first?
Did anyone help @dusk quarry ? Lol
It wasn't an immediate issue; I was throwing out feedback to the ping. Didn't need a direct answer.
Sometimes we highlight when a certain event goes live on US realms but that's a different feature than what Raider.io provides. The 'world first race' highlights the top people to clear an instance.
We did highlight an interview though with the #1 US guild though
I'd like to be able to search for things like: "What level do you need to be, in order to X" where X could be things like, "start the Legion content" or "go to Northrend" - things like that, for when you are trying to power level a toon and can skip ahead to the most challenging content.
i think thats a bit specific, but here is also the information http://www.wowhead.com/dungeon-item-level-requirements-guide#zones-draenor
you're live?!?
Yeah, dry run.
well it's already better, shame I'll have tomiss the live from now on
who won the giveaway
The giveaway doesn't end for another 8 hours @past remnant
ok
Also, it'll take time to finalize over 250 winners, so allow 7-10 days for me to get it finalized after it ends. Thanks ๐
ok, so seems the brand new version of Firefox isn't loading sites properly (if at all)
this is on Firefox 57.0.4
just updated 10 mins ago
refreshing a couple of times seems to force it, but it's intermittent
Does that happen with your AdBlock off? I wonder if it's just an issue with it in conjunction with the Firefox update.
yup
it's totally teh newest firefox, just tested on my laptop too
the update just went live 3 hours ago though, not sure what they changed, thought I'd mention it though before I call it a night
Sure, thx, I'll see if I can replicate it right now.
could be worse, i can't even load Pinterest ๐
I'm on latest Firefox, not happening for me, so now let me try adding your adblock.
oh, i have adblock off on wowhead cos premium
Hmm, still nadda
having it disabled on one site doesnt' always prevent it from screwing with things though; as I've learned over the past year.
yeah it's probably just firefox hiccuping
I can't replicate it though, with or without ABP
yeah, have to have it on for mine though, don't wanna get sanctioned by google for seeing my own ads too much again ๐
you don't play it httpSAFE Sas? I'm shocked ๐
okay replicated the https, no change.
What's your exact version of Firefox, as well as OS @scenic panther ?
57.0.4 (64-bit)
ok, checking that I did just notice something wierd, for some reason it's started the 32bit version of 57.0.4
thats wierd
I'm not seeing it on 57.0.4 (32-bit) on Windows 10 myself
Do other browsers on your computer work?
yup
and this worked fine til that update too
dunno why it's gone to 32bit either
Time for a reinstall!
ok, dollars to donuts that update FUBAR'd itself, all reinstalled to 64bit and fast as a blue hedgehog
so technically yes, it was a new version issue, but not with the site ๐
violet hold bosses this week anyone know?
nope, I think i figured it out...
bad timing
I think my internet hiccupd at the same time I tried updating firefox...
so baddabing, something fucked up
reinstalling the 64bit client seems fine now and a router restart has my 300mb/s download working as usual again
so yeah... nothing to see here... move along everyone, move along...
tradechat wasn't on
facepalm, wowhead weekly...tired
but yeah, @wind thistle did a great job taking over
knew she would. been watching her for a year now. she's pretty confident once she gets the swing. good pairing for perc
I was thinking it would be a nice incentive for contribution to have the top 5(10) contributors listed on the wowhead landing page.

Does Wowhead have a JSON/XML page for spells similar to how they have (or at least used to have) for items (can't for the life of me remember how to trigger the item json page)?
though it looks like the xml is no longer working
https://www.wowhead.com/item=128827/xalatath-blade-of-the-black-empire&xml
still doesn't look there is an xml for spells. Was checking if I could look at the raw tooltip of a spell for something (not the parsed one that is users are able to see on a page)
@teal dragon I wonder if the new search could be tweaked to show results if a certain word is used, I'm going to use "artifact" for this example.
So if someone searches "artifact", "artifact guide", "artifact challenge" or "artifact a-random-word", all the following pages would show up as a result:
http://www.wowhead.com/artifact-weapons-guide
http://www.wowhead.com/artifact-calc
http://www.wowhead.com/challenging-artifact-weapon-appearances
https://www.wowhead.com/artifact-weapon-guides
Violet hold boss rotation NA realms?
@viscid heart I'm referring to something like this from SimC
IE:

For
https://www.wowhead.com/spell=100780/tiger-palm
What Wowhead and in-game do is they parce that data into something that players can more easily read
@karmic dome We can make all of those search terms go to the same customized search results or different ones if need be. Artifact Challenge is already one that works. As far as a wild card "Artifact *" with * being anything, no, we have to define the random word(s).
yeah, hidden artifacts now work as well. I'll put overall artifacts on the to do list
The results for "Artifact Challenge" are also triggered with many other things, like "Mage Tower".
๐
awesome
@karmic dome run a search now ๐
Hello
@tawny blade I got the $9 12 month Premium. How do I prove to get my rank?
You need to message @teal dragon and follow the instructions in #welcome-rules
welcome to the club ๐
and thanks for signing up for premium!
np!
Premium rocks!
well got tired of seeing the "you're running an adblocker" message" ๐
sad I'll have to miss wowhead weekly ont eh new night though :(
but last nights was a great new start
thanks ๐
Just the color distinction here. The other features are entirely site related; most (if not all) listed here: http://www.wowhead.com/premium
Ya. Just to nice orange coloring. ๐
v
hello I have a qustion where I can track the art contests?
I am kinda mad that I missed oportiunity for wow anniversary
but then again, are even european participants allowed?
The results for "Artifact Challenge" are also triggered with many other things, like "Mage Tower"
"Artifact challenge" still redirects to the achievement rather than show the same search results as "Mage Tower"
that's a separate issue we're looking at, where some terms automatically go to the one matching database page. it's an issue with black temple timewalking and legion raids as well. we're looking into having search highlights override database autoredirects. at least that page has links to the right guides though
hey, since there is staff here
just wanted to say thank you for everything over the years, love wowhead ^^
thanks for the kind message ๐
wait, why am i not allowed to write in #welcome-rules or #sweepstakes ?
they are anouncement channels
^ staff only
what onyx said.
on the note of premium perks here, has there een any talk about a premium only room?
maybe for discussion and ideas, or generally for premium only news?
I have no intention of making a Premium only room. I want everyone intereacting in the same rooms, regardless of Premium status.
cool
is wowhead down? i cant get on?
seems fine to me
well it has been teasing me since i bought premium..
any chanec somehere can help me or do i have to write a mail?
Is there no way on NPC List, only to show humanoid? The option seems to be missing for me now.
can somebody answer me please? : hello I have a qustion where I can track the art contests?
I am kinda mad that I missed oportiunity for wow anniversary
but then again, are even european participants allowed?
unless otherwise stated it should be worldwide and not sure where the tracking is
wowhead is loading for me to but abit slow
Thanks for a great site!
Hey guys, im trying to find a list with all proffesion cooldowns (1 day or more), but on "Wowhead.com" there isn't filter "cooldown"i was trying filter "Effect Type -> Create tradeskill item" but this method dont show me full list of items with 1 day cd, u can add filter cooldown in future if u want, if anyone know how i can get full list of spells with 1 day or more cooldawn please pm me or post here.

it's random who gets it, and afaik it drops in your bags automatically, no looting and no rolling
were tht bit of wowhead u can help wowhead out by buying stuff
o.O what?
it's late, sorry, I"m headed to bed, apparently I"m not reading things right after 12 hours no sleep....be back later
i'm the only one who keeps getting disconnected from the site?
@swift helm Disconnected as in having to login upon each new visit?
yes
it always happens when i close my browser, looks like the site doesn't have cookies
That's a known issue that's affecting a lot of people (myself included) and the devs are looking into it.
You might want to try making a temporary bookmark to www.wowhead.com/account as this page does remember the login, at least for me.
you're right, it works, ty for the tip
So I was about to report the sudden, new issue with wowhead making me log in all the time but it looks like it's not a new thing.
how do I keep the site from kicking me from my wow account while I'm playing and then tab over to the site?
it's not logging me out of the site but it's kicking me from the game saying i'm logged in somewhere else
thats a game issue, ntohing to do with the website you are going to
most likely you're internet skips momentarily and the game thinks you have DC'd
either that or your account has been compromised
or that yeah
it only started when I when to the wowhead site and it's done it everytime i click over to it
must be your connection then
dollars to donuts connection issue
running at 180mbps when i do a speed test and 11ms ping why would a connection issue tell me i've been logged out for connecting somewhere else when I've just logged into the site, and the 2nd time from when I refreshed, seems weird, and when i google it guess i'm not the only one that had that issue, I'll just do what they said and try unlinking my wow account from wowhead and try zam
no you're not, thats you're download speed
you need to check your PING and your upload speed
ping is 11ms and upload was 20
PLUS, alt tabbing from teh game is still an action the game see's you do and can cause an internet tick that the game see's as you closing it
11ms ping? nice
yeah
cos you'rs is similar to mine then, but I have no issues
I'm not quite sure what may be going on. Something is wonky with your internet. My speeds are http://www.speedtest.net/result/6947704992.png and I never have issues with that.
yeah
also, Dayummmm Gamer
I bet you pay through the nose for that
anyway, I need to shoot and get back to work, laters all
$79.99 a month
Here I'm spending the same and getting 110 down 7 up
is there something i can do so i dont keep getting logged out on wowhead it happens every so often and it lasts for a few days
as far i know no. its being investigated by the staff
alright thanks
Oh man, I thought I was the only one. I cleared cookies and everything, but every time I loaded wowhead, I had to relogin. Also, site is down, error 500.
@arctic cairn Wish we had an option like that. Paying more and getting 10 down, 1 up, usually less
wowhead down?
wowhead down
we know
This is torture. I went to research some sounds, but wowdb doesn't have sounds. wowdb sucks.
What's this, Wowhead was down for 10 mnutes? REEEEE
Nah jk, i know it was probably down for longer ๐
PANIC!!!
Working fine for me
Confirm, working again
Related to my wowdb comment, what if wowhead hosted UI code? I know there are some githubs and townlong-yak, but wowhead could easily keep it updated.
lol - Ironically my power at my apartment has been down nearly two days now. Should be back tonight. ๐ -- but, had nothing to do with the brief site outage.
๐
damn are things THAT bad int eh states now you can't keep the lights on and have to set fire to roofs?
You live on the east coast Sas?
Nah, Southern California, it was just some equipment failure under ground, they had to dig up the street to fix it. Lots of trucks and some big piece of equipment being lowered down with a crane.
Ahhh, a lot of East coast people are out of power right now
Yeah, unrelated thankfully.
I feel bad for the repair crews though, it rarely rains here and it's pouring now.
forgot to feed the hamster running the powercore again?
@karmic dome try searching for artifact challenge again. Several odd redirect issues are now fixed
Looks good ๐
California could use the rain though
Raining here in Vegas
Rain should come a little bit at a time, not like this.
I just saw on the news about mudslides... Now that's not good. California can use the rain but if it causes mudslides, it needs to ease up.
Mind taking this discussion to #no-wow-discussion?
Do you guys think the Mut Rogue buffs pushed today will push Mut to the best spec for Rogues?
Those buffs are pretty strong
the new article should say that http://ptr.wowhead.com/item=154879 updated to 1000, and NOt from 970 (since it works on 910, and 940 items as well)
sure, updated
hey there i want to ask if I have pinned char on wowhead, can I see completion of quests on that char?
Yes
winter veil contest end?
Yes, though winners are yet to be announced (should be end of this week)
What is the prize?
There are a lot of different prizes, you can see them on the contest page on the website.
How long does it usually take for wowhead to send you a mail if you win? I actually won, for the first time, so I am just curious how long I should wait.
@indigo crypt If you're a winner and don't receive the email, please contact us at feedback@wowhead.com (or send @teal dragon a message) within 14 days of the giveaway end date
Oh I did, I got told that the mail should arive today or tomorrow. Thanks for the MSG though. I will contact the apropriate people if It doesn't. Thanks again

I checked wowhead earlier this morning and the gold achieve popped for the WINNAR IS YOU toast. Looked and it said it was for the Winter Veil 2017 contest. Seemed to have been earned yesterday afternoon. Checked my email and didn't see an email from wowhead. I even contacted feedback and have heard nothing (normally I would even get at least an automated email saying to expect a reply). First time this has happened (won two beta keys in the past) and didn't know if there was an issue or if I needed to contact someone else, thanks!
they'll get it out to you in a bit, trust me, I've won before and they are pretty quick
yeah, there are over 250 prizes this time to verify
Yeah, they were the past two times, as well. I'm probably just a tad bit impatient since I'm still trying to get over a bad cold ๐
oh that's cool. I was just actually surprised to see the toast pop again
I ran into a snag yesterday with sending the emails, they'll be sent out by end of day Friday but probably before.
we believe in you Sas!
that's cool. I just want to apologize if I've come across rash or anything.
The beta key emails are near instant since the codes are pre filled in the system, these emails for Winter Veil are almost all individual.
woof, sounds brutal.
Nah, just time consuming. :)
you need a secretary
Hey, I'd love to help out the wowhead site anyway I could! ๐
remember to watch wowhead weekly tonight
am I right in thinking 5 mins til WW?
Give or take, yes
well as I'm free tonight I can tune in ๐
Another great job tonight by @tawny blade, @wind thistle and @teal dragon
Glad I could make this week
thanks!
Re: Search Highlights (mentioned in a Pinned message)
@plucky fractal a search highlight with some relevant guides/pages has been added for Alliance & Horde per your suggestion.
@worldly marten all classes and specs now have search highlights as suggested.
@fast fractal Profession guides also added.
@soft grove transmog was added as well, one of the largest ones actually.
@plucky fractal Various Expansions/Professions/Raids were added.
@plucky fractal we were able to get BfA searches to return results. :)
If anyone has further suggestions or has any feedback for the existing searches let us know. ๐ We've spent quite a bit of time adding in a ton of search criteria customization. Feedback appreciated.
Grats on your promotion @jovial drift โค
I have the same error
wowhead censorship ๐
It's back!
Ahhh ๐ Neato Sas148 ๐

about how long does it take the site to update your char for like the pathfinder flying achievement
@neon moth what issues do you experience with Pathfinder tool? https://www.wowhead.com/flying
loading character, as well as updating is a process that takes a few seconds and usually goes unnoticed
i've been doing the explorer ones in and quests in highmountain got about 2 and a half hours and it hasn't updated yet, I tried shift f5 for a reset of the page and also tried reloading the character to see if it would update @crude urchin Also at the top of the page is it always supposed to say 0% http://puu.sh/z0HSl.png
I've already gotten the achievement for completing the highmountain one about 15 mins or so ago
have you tried to update the character after log out of WoW?
i'll try that and see
ok that updated it, so will it only update once you log out? i like to use it while i'm playing to see where i missed
Armory needs to update for wowhead to be able to get the new data, and the armory usually doesn't update while you're still logged in.
ah ok
is the site still tracking the archeology quests when they pop up on the news feed or did they stop doing that?
@karmic wind please, take a look at the link below https://www.wowhead.com/news=280318/new-events-in-wow-for-january-9-legion-dungeon-event-shado-pan-showdown#archaeology
Oh, gotcha, I was just looking on the main page at the top with all the other news. Thank you for the link, I did find the JEeves command too. I appreciate the help!
We are always happy to help 
@teal dragon search suggestion: netherlight crucible leading to each spec's guide?
This chart would be amazing, but doesn't fit into the current custom result format.
I dont' think we can add all 36 to the page but we can do a highlight for crucible and have it redirect you to that guide which lists them all
@stoic acorn give it a try now and let us know if that works
@tawny blade That works just fine for what I was thinking of, hopefully it will help somebody ๐
Why is WoWHead site login alway so broken
i can't login, i cant register
i want an account so i can start saving things and using features
shit i'll pay 1 dollar for the premium addfree wowhead if the site would just work
It's a known issue that they are working on @gaunt pewter
i even got the email in my inbox from blizzard saying i've granted wowhead access to my blizzard accout info when i tried to link accounts
so something registered and went through
but still cant login
ahh okay
hopefully they fix it, i imagine it's a very popular website
Try emailing feedback@wowhead.com, we haven't had any widespread login problems
they can help you troubleshoot
We had an issue last week where people that already registered were logged out periodically and that has since been fixed
^Can confirm that, I haven't had to log back in for a few days now
ok sent an email
Is there a way to add the zone in the Legion Assault info for the next assaults in "Today in Broken Isles" ? I know it's showing when there's one active, just wondering if it could be anticipated ๐ค
(i know that it's a 12 assaults cycle)
Don't know If this will assist you solvaring but I ran into a bug recently Right click on the W and sellect open as administrator
Does wowhead have a page with all the gear sets of an expansion of a certain type ? Not class tier sets, just for example selecting "Plate" and "Legion".
@lucid bobcat please, take a look at the link below http://wowhead.com/plate-armor?filter=166;7;0
Hello. How can I select a different artifact appearance in the model viewer with equipment list?
@wicked egret It's not possible at the moment. It's a good idea though and I'll pass it on to the rest of the team. Thanks! ๐
Maybe a strange question but if I have an InstanceMapID (https://wow.gamepedia.com/InstanceMapID) is there a Wowhead link I can use to make a tooltip for the corresponding zone? Or do I need to make a local database of InstanceMapID -> ZoneID
@smoky zephyr take a look at the link below https://www.wowhead.com/tooltips
@crude urchin thanks mate
if I had the zone ID I could use the tooltips as is but all I have is the InstanceMap ID which doesn't correspond 1:1
@smoky zephyr this I cannot help with. If you could please send an email to feedback@wowhead.com
@smoky zephyr look at Quick Facts on zone pages
@wicked egret Equipment List doesn't let you do that, but you can use the dressing room to swap appearances https://www.wowhead.com/dressing-room#Vz0z0zJ89s87MvXY87cvXQ87VvYh808vXU808vXZ808vYa808vYk808E3U87cG
@tawny blade Thanks. Didn't even know this Dressing Room option existed. Thought it had to be done in Equipment List. Excellent!
Hey y'all, when I access wowhead on my phone, it used to let me pull up the tooltip for a thing without going to the page for that thing unless I hit an extra button. As of a week or two ago, though, it pulls up the tooltip and then starts loading the page as well and soon will go through to the page
Is there any way to get back to the previous behavior?
@manic turtle It's a bug, we're aware of it and will fix it when we can. Obviously it's not likely to be this week, or next, with the patch being sprung on us with < 24 hours notice; but it's on the to do list to fix. Thank you!
Blizzard really made the Today in Broken Isles out of whack... the emissaries are wrong and the towers aren't showing at all
woop, there's the towers... emissaries still wrong though
I think the emissaries just reseted.
Yeah it looks like they reset
did the undocumented changes article just dissapear?
It should be back up now.
aye it is
The title is backwards for https://www.wowhead.com/news=280758/scaling-issues-dungeon-and-raid-heroic-mobs-have-more-hp-than-normal
(As in: The content is about Normal having more HP than Heroic)
Fixed, thanks
Any word on when the dressing will be fixed. I've tried multiple computers and phones and they all appear like this. No matter the race or gear used.
Can you send us a link
Something isn't loading fully for you. I have tried on multiple devices on my end and they show that for 1-2 seconds then the textures load.
Also, you're on PTR wowhead. Try going to live wowhead
Hi Perculia hope you are doing well!
thanks! busy with the patch
I'd imagine. I am working to get this song done before Blizzard World releases...and finishing up stuff on another song o.o my mind is like bleh! lol
Just heads up, Mythic VotW seems to be bugged on the first boss
@vale trench Yep we just found that out too

@rich wyvern You've got Uuna's doll dropping from a random helm ๐
it got updated
I feel a bit dumb. I'm trying to look at the sounds on Wowhead (https://www.wowhead.com/sounds/spell-fizzle for example) but nothing is showing up. Am I missing something?
^Confirmed on my end... hmmm
Pre 7.3.5 the wings on my hunter class mount would disappear when looking down when in the air. Post 7.3.5 that seems to be fixed. I don't think it was just me now.
yeah, it happened on rogue too, I wonder if they've fixed that one too

something wrong with the site, or the blizz api? trying to update a toon and it's been "Queued: 18 in line" for like 20 min
Anyone know where the Violet Hold Mythic boss rotation widget on WoWhead went, or where I can find another one?
it's probably broken
@crystal olive EU maintenance will be on Saturday, 20th January from 02:00 (CET) until 12:00 (CET).
If you want to add that in the latest news
Perc is updating the post already, thanks ๐
Also the blue tracker and discord alerts have temporary issues, they'll be back soon
Violet Hold comes up a lot, but honestly - nobody is running Violet Hold that uses the Wowhead Client. That is why we do not get information about it quickly. We tend to get it by the end of the week. It will be more delayed patch week since realms were down longer
All other parts in today in broken isles are powered by the client as well, but because there are more compelling reasons to clear the content, we get the data much faster, like mythic+ affixes. With Violet Hold removed from m+ though, there's just little demand
Hello all
eek

yeah starting soon

Yeah Jay, congratz! Also I missed the talent contest at Blizzcon, just watched it recently! You deserved it, not only because your talent but you as a person, haha!
Thank you :3 , I am trying to record the song for my youtube channel ! gonna have some RP elements to it with guests appearances (vocal wise) from some peeps in the community :3
wierd is there a reason that isnt listing the antorus trinkets for me?
when i change it to antorus instead of raid nothing shows
The client hasn't been working for me the last few weeks. The progress bar goes up, it says "Finalizing", sits there about a minute then pops up an error box that says "End of file". Is there something I can do to help get it going? Or even something I can manually clear maybe to start it over?
I get that from time to time, closing the client and reopening usually fixes it
I've done that a bunch of times as I don't run it all the time.
And reboot. And did a chkdsk
I found a log file here is an excerpt:

Hey staff? I've a suggestion: Is it possible to, IDK, add an option to display the entire database, instead of just 1000? It's been a pain I've had for years now.
Found another undocumented change - when linking a keystone, it now shows the level it's at in the hyperlink instead of having to click it to see what level it is
@arctic cairn Are you sure you don't have one of the many addons installed that does that?
@full totem You can delete/backup World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\<name>\SavedVariables\+Wowhead_Looter.lua when you have WoW closed in order to wipe the Wowhead client's cache. It should start working again after that.
@vale hedge No, sorry, site stability would be compromised by allowing that.
Okay. Is there anyway to find the whole list? maybe make a doc file of links or something like that?
There is not a mechanism in place for that. The idea would be to narrow your focus by using the filters and such until you're below 1,000. Is there some specific example where having over 1,000 results in a single list is actually useful for you?
Transmog ideas. Lots and lots of transmog ideas. Doesn't matter, really. If it's not possible, it's not possible.
If you had, like a single request I might be able to get you a CSV of the output for all results, but it would require a dev and would depend on their willingness and time to do so and it wouldn't be something I can ask them to do often. So if you have something specific you can send me a private message; but otherwise, it's not possible.
On a happier note, look at our first animated emoji: 
Nice! hopefully you can get it in all the rockets, for the holidays and stuff
We'll see, they're not exactly cheap to have made so gotta be a bit picky for now.
Interesting, looks like you can't even use those without Discord Nitro.
Yeah it's a Nitro feature, sorry ๐ฆ
I'd open it to Premium users but that's not an option either.
Not something that's under your control ๐ I was just trying to react to your post with it and coundn't find it in the search lol

it's on the en-gb realm, not en-us because EU is 8-9 hours ahead
Ahhhh... I looked there and even went to the news page and it wasn't listing. When I hit source in the blue tracker it leads me to error 500
I see what's happening - the blue tracker is sending me to us instead of the eu
In your article however, source brings me to the right place
wowhead blue tracker links to EU news don't work. the mmoc ones do.
we're looking into it, however EU forum posts do work (example: https://www.wowhead.com/bluetracker?topic=17617792457) seems to be limited to blogs
yeah just read a few fine
Talent calculators load very slowly for me in Firefox Quantum, sometimes up to 30 seconds (or sometimes they do not load at all). Seems to be normal in Chrome and Edge. No content blockers are on.
I don't know if this is the correct place for the wowhead site (first time posting..) I'm getting error 502 bad gateway when trying to load wowhead. I'm going to assuming that I there is an issue with the site?
Getting same error sporatically on some pages.
Try use CTRL + F5 to reload the page.
Although I haven't gotten any 502s since yesterday
hello everyone
is Sas on?
still can't login to the wowhead page, even after the resets they've done
Shoot an email to feedback@wowhead.com from the email associated with your account. They may be able to help better through there
replied to each as they came in, figured it'd be faster to be on discord here
@pallid jungle Send me a PM if you're still having issues.
@teal dragon what are you using for the reaction roles?
@gloomy cloud did you get an answer, I'm curious too @teal dragon
I asked about 60 seconds ago and it's the middle of the night for him so I'm not expect a reply yet lol

So I was woundering why the site will not load any information on any page for me...
is there a location block due to my area being in china?
Are you using adblocker?
No there is no adblocking by default in chrome
So can it be the Great China Firewall?
Ok let me try
I was @teal dragon giving the tip once to try opening it in incognito since then all the addon etc. will be disabled
was = saw*
It is firewall then. :rip:
but with the proxy server disconnected it also loads fine now too!!!

I have no Idea wat da fak happened but cool
Thanks for your time!

@teal dragon You might want to use another emoji instead of ๐ผ for Screenshot "Calls to Action"
Default emojis sometimes bug and the rolereaction disappears.
Not sure how I would do that without wiping out everyone who already opt'd in.
Well, you just add a new rolereaction, react with that custom emoji and clear the old reactions.
Okay, changed.
Hi @teal dragon, not sure if this is where I can ask but is there any updates on when the Armory App Auction House will be back online?
@vital bay I don't think we're affiliated with that?
Ok! Thanks
Sorry ๐ฆ
hey sas, mind if I throw up a suggestion on how to combat the bots on the forums?
No harm in giving suggestions. But we've made various efforts for years, they just adapt anyhow.
how about adding a reputation threshold for permission to post on the forums?
doesn't need to be that high but just enough to raise the barrier of opening an account to spam the forums. Most accounts are only hours old usually, if not minutes.
secondly, is there any way to change the layout a bit to add a report button to posts viewing the board itself - perhaps next to the green button that navigates to the last page of each post?
Not everything can be immediately reported on sight, but tossing up a link for a site that sells pills in the thread title is basically an insta-report.
Should expedite the process a little.
https://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20761046621#post-1 this is what I found out!
@cursive lark We've discussed this before but decided against adding a threshold to post, many users make accounts just to add a reply or make a post after having been a frequent user of the site for years but just never having been compelled to make an account. Plus, when we do giveaways/contests with 'Comment to Win' type mechanisms this would prevent any new users from participating and they'd now have to go get reputation -- definitely not a popular idea and one we've decided against.
A faster way to report spam; while it's a nice idea, I'd really prefer not to have an easy way for people to just click a single button going down the forum to report threads; that just screams "abuse me". Making it a little work helps to reduce that possibility.
There could be a way to get rep fairly quickly as a one-time thing, like by verifying the account via email (it's literally been so long I'm not even sure if that's required anymore). I'd say encourage people to upload (for 25 rep) using the Wowhead Client addon but not everyone wants to install that, even if it is needed for a few contests.
As for abusing the report system, I thought it was made publicly known that tossing out a few spam reports basically deletes a thread instantly, yet when that was brought to light it wasn't abused. It wouldn't be particularly...difficult to abuse it.
You already have to verify your email to get access to the site.
Okay figured as much.
Uh...
How about a rep threshold to just make a thread, since it's a different action from making a reply to a thread (Won't stop the spam but it'll at least stop them from spamming threads).
It was abused actually, we had to add mechanisms to prevent established accounts from being subjected to spam suppression.
That's more reasonable, but what about the users who make a new account to ask questions in the Feedback forum? Now I'd probably have to ask for a restriction be added to new threads but one that doesn't affect Feedback, but then spammers would probably just focus their attention in there. ๐
The underlying question really would be more "Is spam really so rampant, and handled so slowly, to merit substantial changes like this that would affect more users than the spam does?"
It's been years, I don't recall honestly.
I'd say the spam can be moderately problematic tbh.
Free rep, but damn can it get pretty excessive.
Can't expect you to have all the numbers or anything, but compared to overall site traffic it's incredibly small.
What about compared to forum traffic, which I have to imagine is but a fraction of the full site traffic?
Agreed, it's excessive, no idea why they even do it; the spam doesn't last long enough to be of any use to them.
Lol they even do it to my blog. It's everywhere...
They have to verify email, get through captcha, can't post links... on and on, they still manage to get around it.
Hmmm
We've had passive conversations about additional mesaures in the past but rarely has there been any time to consider them further.
All forums accounted for .01% of site traffic the last year.
Okay this is probably going to be a dumb suggestion, but what if there was a system that holds a post with an unverified link (that is to say, anything that doesn't go to a whitelisted site like Wowhead, Youtube, Battle.net) until it can be verified by a mod?
You know, kind of like the comment verification system on Youtube.
I don't think the mods would care for that honestly lol
I heard they don't have a lot to do, so hey... ๐
#'s are fun. Most visited forum is L&RP
Joking aside, what if it held it for a specified period of time then released, or it's released early by a mod? This is just for users that do not have permissions to post links.
I'm not surprised by that. They're a small, if perhaps very reclusive, community.
But much like Runescape players, a very dedicated group.
All of these are nice ideas, seriously, it's just... there's very little chance I'm going to get any dev time to address this with so many larger things that impact a much larger chunk of our traffic. We've got 2 people that may be able to actually do any of this and they're already overworked. ๐ I think we'll just have to endure through it for the foreseeable future.
Yeah...that's why I considered my suggestion dumb ๐
Not dumb, just... not practical w/ current priorities/resources.
Unreasonable might be the more accurate term.
In any case, there's another way I think that spam can be combated.
Encouraging more people to post on the forums ๐
At least we still have forums. ๐
Reddit (other social media) have really hindered indepdent forums.
I'm unfortunately very aware of that.
That said, there's a possibility to open up a niche where people aren't just downvoted into the ground for expressing the wrong opinion.
A very distinct issue with well...Reddit in general.
You've been disproportionately affected. Forum king.
I just visit both. I mostly lurk on Reddit anyways.
Well either that or I get into verbose discussions about topics such as how good the Prevent Cancer charity actually is.
But really though, I do think there's an opportunity to allow for different opinions to meld together better that Reddit simply doesn't allow for.
I think part of the puzzle is making Premium more accessible, not from the pricing side - the pricing is good, but showing all the ways people can farm rep without much effort.
Another part is to encourage insightful posts to actually foster healthy discussion. To that end, it might be interesting to have a system where reputation can be earned for making insightful posts as opposed to spamming. Rep for posts has been frequently suggested I think, but even me, Mr. Spamlord, thinks that's a bit excessive. Instead, if perhaps a few people considered a post insightful then the user earns a small amount of rep as an accolade.
Bit different from the "likes" system like on Facebook - more comparable to the old Honor system in League, or perhaps...upvotes on games like Overwatch and Heroes of the Storm for a performance card.
Not sure how much work that particular suggestion would require though.

Using the dressing room for nightborne on the site, and the 'tattoo' option doesn't seem to be working (on both live and PTR versions). I cycle through the options and none of them are reflected onto the model. Is this a bug on the site, or a browser issue that I need to deal with?
That's a bug on the modelviewer sadly, we're trying to fix it, but have no ETA at the moment ๐ฆ
Ah, right! Rather glad to hear it wasn't just me or my PC going haywire.
To clarify though, the tattoos do work, they're just EXTREMELY light.
why whenever I click on a map someone linked I just get a blank page? XD
Got an example link someone sent you?
One of the links that are showing up blank when you click on them would be best.
If I had to guess you may be clicking links from old comments that may not be in the right format anymore. But, yes, I need you to copy one of the links you're clicking so I can take a look. You could also link the comment you're talking about that contains the link.
well yeah most of those quests are from older expansions and from few years ago
like this one for example
http://www.wowhead.com/quest=11643/mobus-pneumatic-tank-transjigamarig found one randomly here now to show you
but as sas mentioned it's rly old I tought it was something to my pc
Yeah, systems on the site have changed since those links were posted so they're no longer supported. Sorry ๐ฆ
The map on the top of that page though has the same location highlighted on it, the link isn't even necessary now. ๐
I know
for that one
but rly need a map linked xd
for some others
it's okay
brings back the vanilla feels of looking for some stuff urself ๐
*note that quest was jsut random example not the one of few I looked for xP
I've noticed that too... There's a lot of links that are outdated... I'll start pointing them out when I come across them again
Well, old comments with outdated links aren't necessarily a problem, but if it's just a link to something that no longer exists/works you can report that for mod attention; if it's a fine comment with just a broken link in it, well that's fine to leave unless the entire comment involves the link.
oooh, profile pages are showing character art again, nice one guys!
The EU ones? yeah ๐
nice
CAPTCHA isn't working for me on the site. I've tried Firefox and Chrome and no joy with either. I tried making a forum post about it, but it said I had to enter the CAPTCHA, which wasn't there.
@dawn jay We're aware of this, it seems to have inexplicitely started today. We'll be looking to get this fixed tomorrow, if not before.
the infomation for getting Gahz'rookie is wrong on its npc page, seems its been wrong since SoO came out
CAPTCHA doesn't work for me either.
I keep getting Invalid status code: 500 whenever I try and upload from the client
Hey would anyone be able to help me with my premium purchase?
I got a profile ID on paypal for Zam but I dont see it reflecting on my profile
Contact them through website and they will get it fixed. I had the same issue and they had it fixed within 24 hours
:D
can somone remove the whweekly role from me please
@dawn jay This has been patched up for the moment, let me know if you encounter a similar issue. Thank you!
is anyone else having problems loging into wowhead with their ZAM log in, it seems my zam log in is not working and im having to log in with my battle.net instead
Hey @misty osprey , send me a PM so I can take a look for ya.
dont know where to post this, so ill just post it here, the webhook says alliance for zandalari
Looks like it was already fixed in the article, no way to fix the webhooks that already got sent out.
^ yea sry - shit happens ๐
I had synced my Google calendar with the wow calendar via wowhead sometime last year and ever since the 1st, they don't show anymore so I'm thinking I need to resync but I can't find where I did it now. Was that removed or am I mistaking?
oh, ugh, no... at some point I just completely forgot to keep updating it.
Oh ok lol I'm probably like the only one that uses it haha
Supposidly like 3k subscribed but you're the first to say anything. I'll see what I can do starting again in February.
Ok. Awesome.
I love your wowhead news bot - but so many news in short time is a little bit to mich push messages. Is possible to make more summary pushes?
I doubt it, the bot just grabs the RSS feed when a new post goes live, the best thing to do is mute the channel the news posts arrive in, then just look from tim to time
Ah ok it takes the RSS feed - ok thank you ๐
no worries, most of teh wowhead team are probably asleep or just having coffee to get going, so happy to help ๐
sleep?
What is that
There is plenty of action happening on Twitter as we find more exciting stuff to share!

sleep is when you black out and find qwerty+ on your face
as i just did
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=60491/sha-of-anger#map pin is in the wrong location
correct location
Help, dressing room is broken, different pieces of armor are missing when loading items/sets. I have had some awkward situations with a female zandalari with no pants when trying to make a druid mog
Hey, it's hard for us to troubleshoot if it's isolated to a few items like that - please send specific dressing room links to feedback@wowhead.com
I think it's more of a reload problem. For example, when your character already have pieces "equiped" and you load a set over it, some models (items or the character itself) won't update unless you reload the page.
Is it possible to have a "Looking for.... (OC)" area for those of us that get left out cause we're so tiny please?
gosh..want me to sacrifice a goat? I dunno why u do this to us but pls stop it ๐ฆ
Those password requirements are pretty standard these days; I'd recommend figuring out a variation that works for you.
could we possibly see dark iron dwarves added to the dressing room? or is that already something in the pipeline?
I think they were not datamined so... ๐ค
@coral crane I'm not sure if they exist yet (I know Sas stated the Zandalari Trolls weren't) but as soon as they are available they'll definitely be added to the dressing room.
maybe i am just bad. but how can i get the modelid from wowhead?
found a way but that sounds a bit ugly, looking at the javascript command from the button
@twin rapids is forecasted to be active once again within the next 6 hours.
We apologise for the delay with this update and the downtime on the bot in the last 24 hours. Thank you for your patience.
hi
i have just setup for a year of site access
and firefox is doing weird things
not sure if you know about it or not?
"firefox is doing weird things" is too vague
haha
one sec
this massive space
does the samething on the mac and windows verrsion of firefox
latest version here
Are you behind a proxy? Do you have any extensions that might be causing interference (adblockers)?
i have 2 extensions
ublock origin
disabled
and bitwarden
just disabled ublock origin
same thing
ok i have removed everything
and now its working
there was one more than i had loaded
didnt have an icon
Are you using a proxy? (large network such as work or dorm rooms, or some antivirus applications, or some really bad ISPs)
Ah, cool, do you know which caused it?
just adding them back in now
ok so its not bitwarden
or ublock
there was an autoplay video blocker
just putting that in
thats the mod thast does it
well addon
many extensions seem to hate the ZAM-bar at the top
and with my restricted knowledge i assume the bar is only something they can report and not change
hey guys, i'm getting an issue with Wowhead Looter app. I cannot upload anything because I'm getting an authentication error since Christmas
I think maybe it is related to battle.net linking account
Could you try reinstall it? @wet field
@wet field You may want to do a password change on the site and then update the password you're using in the client, see if that helps.
hi, how do I get my name in orange? I have premium.
no-one ever reads the welcome channel
So I asked this once before, but I'll ask again. Is there a get around for getting Invalid status code: 500 whenever I try and upload from the client?
@karmic dome yeah, I tried to reinstall it and... nothing
Try a password reset like Sas said, and give it a few hours. I don't really know... last time a friend got problems reinstalling fixed it..
@teal dragon I tried that too, but I'm gonna change the password once again and see that happen...
Password changed, nothing ๐ฆ
I will wait two-three hours
Anyway, thanks for the support guys!
@round helm ```
Delete the +Wowhead_Looter.lua (and +Wowhead_Looter.lua.bak) file in your World of Warcraft/WTF/Account/<Account Name>/SavedVariables folder. Then, go relaunch World of Warcraft. Give it a minute, close it and try to upload again.
@wet field changing your password on the site, and then updating the one in the client to match should work. Also remember the site uses your email to login but the client requires username, not email.
I'm curious about some analytics: out of lightforged, void elves, nightborne and highmountain, what's the most popular allied race in the dressing room?
I guess you guys don't reveal this kind of data ๐
Hm. Not sure if it's a known issue but for the past week or two my account keeps getting logged out of wowhead. :s
It was an issue at the beginning of the year but was resolved. I haven't had any other reports since it was fixed nor have I experienced it myself. Are you sure you're remembering to check the box to stay logged in?
@rocky acorn I don't think our analytics are that precise. I'm not an expert on it though, but the URL varies based on every little setting in the dressing room: race, class, gender, customizations, etc.
@teal dragon I clicked "remember me" a few times. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. I'll have to pay attention if it does that whenever I restart or close the browser or something.
https://puu.sh/zcIJO.png
News error ?
I can't login anymore. Both my un/pw and bnet won't work and I keep getting database error. Now I'm just looking at a white page that says HTTP error 500
And now it's working
Weird
Give your cache a clear and have another try. Should be back up now.
A backend upgrade we were performing had to be reverted which caused this temporary partial outage. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hm. Earlier I tried to close chrome and it stayed logged in, but I got disconnected from the internet and now it seems to have "forgotten" again. I click on the bnet icon and it instantly logs me in after refreshing the page, of course, but it's still weird.
Sounds like something on your end is clearing your site cookie(s). What programs are you running? Anything like BItDefender?
I technically have uBlock / Adblock enabled, but they should normally be whitelisted for wowhead for reasons.
There is a new program called AdGuard I've been testing out, though. It might be that.
Possibly. I'd also suggest whitelisting any *.zam.com domains, since your authentication can involve services under that domain.
@teal dragon password changed and as @karmic dome said, waited few hours. Now works again, thanks for the support! You're awesome!
Hey, as might have been pointed out by others, the addition of allied races break the itembox as seen here https://bfa.wowhead.com/item=44223
I sent feedback, but figured I'd give a headsup here as well ๐
@fickle pecan this has been fixed. Thank you!
@teal dragon cheers! ๐
It would be really cool for Wowhead to create a char name generator. Get working on it Sas. I know you can do it
Would be extra cool if you could provide a realm and the generator would not sugest a name that already exists in that realm.
Not sure an API exists to check what usernames are used or not. Interesting idea though; both of you ๐
Not a programmer, but a user can always check the armory. Maybe that could be used?
Armory doesn't show characters below lvl 10, so it couldn't be used. I don't think Blizzard exposes data to power something like that.
It could still be used as a hidden feature.
The name is not guaranteed to be available, but doing this would make it to be most of the time.
Not sure I agree with that, so many bank characters... people taking names they want to use someday, that kinda thing, it just wouldn't be reliable enough imo
Then i guess it depends on how hard it is to implement and how heavy on process and data usage to be worth it. That's if it's even posible to do to begin with.
Yeah, a lot of variables there. Also the possiblity of Blizzard not liking the frequent searches we'd have to run each time someone clicks the button.
I'm also not sure how much work it would be to have that large a database of names, or how that would work from a development stand point. Still, I like the idea. ๐
I've a suggestion: You know how the news is labled in the corner, like all the datamined BFA stuff has the "Beta" tag? Can you make it so I can filter out the rest of the news and just see the "Beta" flagged news articles? Or has that already been done?
We've discussed this at length and ultimately have decided not to add filters. People far too often forget when they filter things and miss stuff, blaming the site for not covering something and instead finding it elsewhere. Just something we're not willing to risk. The tags make it easier to skip anything you don't want to see or find what you do, and that's as far as we're willing to go at this time.
Does anyone know why the giveaways channel in this Discord server has only the welcome message and nothing else? I joined this server when I was enticed by a giveaway about a month ago or so and I've definitely seen more than one message in that channel.
How can I report what I presume is unintended behavior or a fault on someone's part?
Actually it contains the welcome message and one last giveaway information.
They probably purge it after a giveaway to avoid confusion and clutter
they DO purge old before adding new
Wowhead & Sister Site Giveaways is what you should see in the giveaways channel. Sas does an everyone ping for every giveaway
Correct, the #sweepstakes channel is purged after a giveaway is concluded. I usually wait at least 2 days after everyone has claimed their prizes before clearing it so any stragglers can see who won. Sometimes I don't purge it until a new giveaway is posted but since there's other giveaways happening (shown at the top of the channel) I wanted it to be easier to find; most people aren't going to bother scrolling to the top. ๐
I can't imagine why really but if anyone ever needs a reminder about a recent giveaway winner name or something all of it is logged, can always just ask me via PM.
I can't seem to track down the page with the new datamined armor models anymore. I regularly check it to see if the alliance warfront plate models are up yet, but I can't find the link.
Yes, thank you. It wasn't at the top anymore, and I didn't see a link for it in the database either.
scroll back through #latest-news-old
I'm going to add a serach highlight for battle for azeroth armor
there's a page there now that takes you to list of all datamied stuff
Idk if its intended but when you are in https://www.wowhead.com/attunement and click in a saved characted to check if you have the requirements you get redirected to the list of the character and not in the https://www.wowhead.com/attunement#(region)-(realm)-(character)
Track your progression towards attuning for and completing various Legion content and see what your character has left that they can do to progress.
it's a link to the imported character and not to the proper zone
did i explaned it well? english is not my native language ๐
Not sure I understood actually. /attunement page 'Load Character' seems to work fine for me.
By zone do you mean realm? Did those characters change their realm? If so you'll want to delete the old ones and re add them with the boxes below 'Load a Character' -- you can delete them in your profile under the 'Profiles' tab.
Nervermind, I dont know what I really did to go to the character info from /attunement
My bad ๐ , sorry
No worries ๐
Oh, I see what I did! xD, if you hover in the list you will see the link of the character, so I you click it with the mouse wheel you will redirected to that, but if you left click it you get redirected to the attunement site
@tawny blade Hey there, have you seen Ythisens' post ? I'm curious if Wowhead falls under the first or second type of datamining, I believe you guys do use a sandbox to visualize mounts and such.
We've been aware of the post and don't fall under anything that would be a DMCA. We have a lot of custom setups. If we do something new or unfamiliar, we run it by Blizzard first and comply if something has to be taken down for whatever reason like Guldan cinematic.
I think the post was triggered by a lot of in-game exploration videos of alpha zones but I could be wrong, I've kind of purposely held off on that
Definitely, I believe MrGM was the first one hit, his videos had already been taken down yesterday in fact. I remember Wowhead already making mount videos and such months ago and was always curious if that didn't go against Blizzard's rules, but apparently it doesn't !
it's a custom map setup, at some point we debated making the background more realistic but thought it would be too confusing in presentation and maybe cross a line
Yup, got it then.
Does someone know how to fix the white screen + brief text issue on Wowhead?
Try disabling your extensions and/or trying in Incognito Mode.
It worked, thx
This has a few [race=28] style entries that aren't linking to a class:

Fixed/bypassed. Thanks @stoic acorn
Hello, I tweeted about the profiler page refreshing continuously earlier today
@rugged chasm Hi. Do you still experience the issue?
I'm going to go and see how it acts now
SEems to work now. I'll come back if it happens again
We are always happy to help ๐ Good luck
hey guys, any way we could update outfits we make in the dressing room at some point?
https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=12414/heritage-of-the-lightforged
has no link to the leveling guide: https://www.wowhead.com/lightforged-draenei-allied-race-leveling-guide
the other 3 achievements have it linked already
Just updated it
thanks!
How the heck do I even use The sound database? No matter what I type in the search bar nothing comes up
Nothing matches the criteria.
@tawdry bone Our sound database is pretty much broken. We're aware of it... but it's a low priority compared to all the other things we need to do but it's something we want to fix/update in the future.
Aw man. @teal dragon is there any other way to find specific sounds?
You have something in particular? I can look for you but not sure if I'll be successful.
I want some basic things such as audio for when mounting specific mounts, flapping of dragon wings, and passive mount audio. Not sure if it's possible to grab from respective mount pages
This is for non in game purposes
I'm unfortunatley not sure how to find those. ๐ฆ If they're not in a Sounds tab on the database pages then you may just need to wait until we can get that part of the site updated.
Unfortunate. But thanks for the heads up. Glad to know it wasn't user error. Hope it gets fixed soon
Hm I think I'm getting errors for loading pictures: https://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screenshots/normal/463559-vile-fumigators-mask-le-worgen.jpg
Yeah this happened in the last hour or two; no one's around to fix it. But, we've made everyone aware, should be resolved in the morning.
@teal dragon I'm not getting the site to work at all now.
All I'm getting is An error occurred while processing your request. Reference #97.749e02cc.1517570860.2f0be1a
Trying to visit the page http://www.wowhead.com/item=84101/reins-of-the-grand-expedition-yak
Swell. Looking into it.
It takes a bit for even that to load too, so it seems to be TRYING at least. And thank you!
Getting the same thing:

This is a network wide issue; efforts are being made to restore services. Sorry for the inconvenience in the meantime!
how i'm supposed to live without wowhead, every second wowhead is down i lost a bit of my soul
it's back 
We're slowly coming back up..
Everything should be back in full order now. Thank you everyone ๐
Should the latest interview, with Terran Gregory, be added to the interview roundup ? http://www.wowhead.com/news=281316/battle-for-azeroth-interview-roundup
Curious about the giveaway that just happened... it says the entry period goes until Fri, Feb 2 at 11:59pm... that would be tonight. But it says itโs already over and announced a winner. Could I get a clarification?
well spotted
seems like discord doesnt like the new npc skin tones
Worked on my server ๐คท
Worked on mine too
Racism
what do you guys use for your giveaway channel?
@true lintel look at the mebers of the @bots role and see if you can figure it out ๐
@tacit obsidian It ended last night, I just didn't update the #sweepstakes channel.
When logged into the website on a paid sub, not surf if that matters, the tabs under related will not open . When I click on each one they remain highliighted like they are selected. I can get all tabs in this state at once. They function normally when not signed in.
sure not surf*
https://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=36539&p=3970420
Perc replied to that saying she was going to see if it's possible. Do you guys know what the answer to that was or maybe is now that 4 years have passed?
@turbid acorn Can you provide a link to a page you're referring to so I can take a look?
It is all pages
under the realated section which is where the colmment section is for all items all those tabs do not function while I am logged in but workj just fine logged out
comment*
Just throw me a link plz, save me a minute ๐
@arctic cairn I don't have an answer for that. ๐ฆ
My guess is it either wasn't possible or other things got in the way of any attempt to implement it.
well it seems to have gotten worse inone of the battle pets on the tab are loading on this page https://www.wowhead.com/aquatic-battle-pets
none*
text doesnt load either
Would you be able to bring it up again to find out if it is possible? I know right now there's a lot of BfA stuff being done but it would be cool to be able to see the IDs and such for game objects
Loads for me logged out as well.
sorry one second my holliday boss had just popped let me get some screens for you
Before you do, can you try in Incognito mode or a different browser, does the behavior persist?
I did clear all cookie btw
@arctic cairn Send me a feedback email, referencing the post, I'll forward it to her for consideration.
OK
How about cache?
yeah
Did you try incognito yet?
doing it now
kk
