for some reason i am not getting BOT updates on my discord? Last one i got was the hall of fame. Can you assist me please... thank you, painloa
@mystic spruce I've pushed another news post. Please see if the issue is resolved
@mystic spruce open https://www.wowhead.com/webhook, delete existing webhooks, and add new ones
k, let me give that a go.. ty
stuff just came in, but says server vice bot for source
does that mean its working as intended or just the push you did worked?
@mystic spruce give me a sec
@mystic spruce I sent another push. Did you get any updates?
It seems so. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! Have a nice day and stay safe.
ty for your awesome support! be safe as well.
Hi everyone, i'am french and i use your wonderfull site (i even desctivate AD block on your site). So, before i stop wow (1 and half year) on top in the page there was "FranΓ§ais" and if we clic on it, we can view in englishe version. There functionalty was really relly good. Can say me how to see a french item on english version? Thanks!
@granite robin hi. You can select the language by hovering the mouse over red icon depicting globe
No problem. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! Have a nice day and stay safe.
Have you got Utip for watching 3-4 video formonitation and help the site?
i should π i'am sure lot of peapols we using your site since the creation whold help you π it's fast to create and can easly win 100-200β¬ per month for servers
Nice anyway, have a good day π thanks a lot
I know this is a little nit picky but why is the same item repeated so many times?????
probably different stat versions
ah
so warglaves are broken (Its inside out)
@sharp pulsar ?
Mmm
how long does it take for my account to activate?
i just bought it and it is still saying i have a starter account
??
this is not blizzard. this has nothing to do with the game. this discord server is for the website wowhead.com
i know i was just asking if u guys had a any idea on when i would receive it based on the time it took your order etc.
Blizzard's disclaimer is 72 hours @placid tundra
anyone have a clain i can join
Hello i need help xD
i cant download battle net
its says failed network on download
this server is not related to blizzad or battle.net. this is about the internet site wowhead.com.
Is there any reason as to why you can't use the Pathfinder Tool and the Battle for Azeroth Attunements Tool? I created an account on the website and I still get an error that my character that I'm trying to load is forbidden. π€ Anyone knows why or how I can view my progress?
@stuck cove disable any adblockers and try again. If that doesn't work, provide the name, region, and realm please.
Alright, give me a moment to try that
Yeah no, it's apparently still forbidden to load my character π
Name: Zev
Region: EU
Realm: Terokkar
@stuck cove please give me a moment
No rush!
@stuck cove please open https://account.blizzard.com/privacy, and check if you have disabled game data sharing with community developers in your Blizzard account privacy settings.
Will do, give me a moment.
It's enabled π€
And was enabled this whole time as far as I'm aware.
@stuck cove please note that Blizzard changed their API to not provide data on characters that haven't been logged into in >30 days.
Ahhh, okay that could be an explanation then. I just logged in now though, so hopefully it will allow me to see my progress soon π Thanks for your assistance though!
if you logout it should create your data soon enough
Thank you!
@stuck cove we hope that your issue has been resolved. We are here for you in case you require any further assistance. Stay safe π
Thank you very much! π Hopefully it will all be alright soon! ^^
It works now, figured I'd check since it's been over an hour: https://www.wowhead.com/flying#eu-terokkar-zev
Hello there, would it be possible to split the #latest-news Channel into retail and classic? This would be sooo great β€οΈ
@safe wasp our Discord covers all versions of WoW, and we've opted to keep the news all in one channel as it always has been here. However, you're welcome to add the webhooks in your own Discord server. You have the ability to create separate channels for each of the categories offered if you so desire: https://www.wowhead.com/webhook
Thank you very much for the info regarding the webhooks. I will check it out. π
I'm thinking of writing a guide / revising a guide I wrote on the old deleted forums and putting it on wowhead. However, I am mildly concerned about potential harassment in the comments section.
Is it possible to disable comments on your guides?
No, comments can't be entirely disabled.
We'd handle harassing comments like any others, by reporting them for moderator attention.
Okay.
on the right bottem there is always a video popup about cinematics and stuff, is there an option to disable it? especially on phone? it autoplays on phone which is kinda anoyying imo
wowhead premium
the autoplay ad plays ingame cinematics
and it is the most profitable type of ad vs covering all of the screen all the time
Hi there, i've just installed the wowhead bot and I wanted to know if there's any command to bring the latest news to the channel, right now is empty
We haven't posted any news for a few hours, it's a bit of a dull time
When the next news is posted, it will show up in the channel
^^ and it's not retroactive @peak depot
Thanks for the info guys!
can anyone in here help me why i can't login with battle net into wowhead's website? I press login and the next page i land on is account signup page from wowhead , if i fill out the registration step 1 of 2 thing it gives me an error (tried different browsers) still no luck , in battle net it says under connections = Wowhead has access , i tried to remove it and login again but nothing works :S
also under privacy i have share gameplay data on
@wind dew hello. You have to make a Wowhead account first, and then link Battle.net account to it
You can't create an account on the site by using battle.net authorization system
hey, but when i try to make a wowhead account it says error
"Oops! Something went wrong while trying to log in. Please try again."
when im on the registration page
@wind dew please clear browser's cache and cookie, open https://www.wowhead.com/account=signup and try again
still happens π¦
even in different browser it happens
i normally use chrome , but it happens even in Edge
please wait for an answer from Sas
no, we don't practice such things
yeah i tried my outlook email now and my web mail none works :/ guess i have to wait
Account registration is down. Unable to be fixed at this moment but we'll try to get it resolved later today. Thank you.
awesome thank you π
@teal dragon also normal logins?
@tiny mulch those should be fine, I tested on 3 different accounts without a problem.
hmm, getting "Internal Error" when trying to login with my my old wowhead acc (dont think its been used since the swap to fanbyte)
says the email is in use if i try to register with it, but the reset link also has an error :/
That's likely a different issue compounded by the current one. Old accounts could be messed up since our authentication stuff has changed over the years. I won't be able to troubleshoot until this other issue is resolved. Send an email to feedback@wowhead.com and include all pertinent information please.
okay, thanks
Account registration is down. Unable to be fixed at this moment but we'll try to get it resolved later today. Thank you.
This has been resolved. Account registration should now work normally. π
Thanks! its working now π
Is anyone else having the problem where even though you are signed in on your premium account you still see ads? I have tried everything but nothing seems to work.
When you are signed in and you click you user name in the upper right hand corner of the screen, --> user page, you do see <Premium User> or in "Premium Settings" do you see Active?
If so, on the latter page, check "Preferences" tab and see if you have opted in to ads on the site. There is a "Display ads" checkbox.
Disclaimer: I am not site support nor am I attempting to pass myself off as such. Just trying to help! π
Thanks for the help. The fix ened up being that I had to click Settings > Premium Tab and as soon as I clicked on that it said my Premium Settings have moved. So I had to click on a update button. That fixed it.
@solid pier there's been some interruptions between the site and Premium service as of late, network issues and that sort of thing. It may be necessary to click that 'Update' button on occasion. Sorry about that, we're going to look into modifying how that whole system works in the near future to reduce, if not eliminate, the chances of that happening.
i purchased the full game and it worked because it lets me customize a death knight. but i cant make a death knight.
@plucky fractal This channel is for Wowhead feedback and support - not general WoW stuff!
Iβll be happy to answer you over in #retail-wow π
Hello guys, i have a problem. I have WoW on my old computer (disc and all), and my new computer doesnt have a CD drive. I have downloaded Blizzard and WoW, but it only allows me to play up to 20th level. What do I do? Please help
this isn't support for WoW, this is support for the fansite wowhead. Try #retail-wow
Could've just msg:ed the person with the answer, instead of alienating them off Discord π
I think pointing them to the correct channel is prudent first, as others have already been doing. Many just join Discord and don't bother reading anything... that behavior should be corrected first or they're going to encounter much less polite servers.
The kanta person above, who left pretty quickly after sending the message, obviously isn't reading too well as it is... since the game makes it pretty clear that you have a starter account and provides several prompts to pay to unlock more content.
That said, I'm going to consider adding a #game-help channel or something. Though even then you're bound to have people using the wrong channel(s).
Fair enough π
I tried to politely reply to Kanta in DM after noticing the question being asked, and only then noticed that Kanta was no longer on server. Oh well.
In my experience answering people in the wrong channel just encourages them to keep doing it π
so I followed the trend of redirection
why aint there a danish channel under non english?
Because we don't have the Danish language on our site. We only list those that are listed on our site. Any others can be used in #other.
Y'all are cruel - were in a content drought and info drought... This just pulls at the heart strings lol
Excuse me I wanna know something if this site is true because when I checked at blizzardgearstore.com these item did not exist and the statue only appear Sylvanas. Idon't know why. This is an item that I wanna buy. Please anyone answer if this is true, not fake.
https://www.blizzardgearstore.com/games/world-of-warcraft/jaina-world-of-warcraft-d-stage-battle-for-azeroth-6-statue/o-43164653+t-65839193+p-030834210+z-9-766621440?_ref=p-SFLP:m-GRID:i-r0c0:po-0
Answered in #retail-wow already π
@compact radish You still experiencing that?
No it resolved itself about 15 minutes later, forgot to let you guys know
Hammer of Wrath (Paladin discord) link on the https://www.wowhead.com/discord-servers page is dead, should be discord.gg/hammerofwrath π
@upbeat karma fixed, ty!
The loot logs for Rag seem to have been lost as the counter only shows 51.
https://classic.wowhead.com/npc=11502/ragnaros
what might be the underlying problem here?
https://www.wowhead.com/outfit=104962/rogue what is the helmet in this transmog it doesn't show in any sets its in in gear????
A Rogue outfit containing 60 items. A custom transmog set created with Wowhead's Dressing Room tool. By Reika9944. In the Rogue Outfits category.
@modest jasper looks like a glitch from the screenshot generation. There's no helm.
then whats that thing that looks like bandana of sorts its also in this transmog as i really wanna try to get it
has anyone else had issues with the Wowhead webhook/bot posting the same Wowhead article multiple times in a row? my guild's Discord has been having that issue the past month or so, and it's only been getting worse
it started with double-posting every once in a while, but now it's posting the same article like 4 or 5 times in a row, and sometimes it even posts it again in between other articles
This has been described as a Discord issue that the Wowhead team has no control over before, however note that news tagged as Blizzard will post to all "categorized" newshooks. (Last example being the "Ashes of Outland" article)
hm
i was just about to say, it posted the Ashes of Outland article 4 times in a row at midnight last night
do you have multiple types of webhooks?
If you had all 4 "categorized" webhooks that would make sense:
Hello all π. Had a question about drop rates and % of population item possession stats on WoWHead website. Anyone with the WoWHead team who could provide some input?
then at 12:51-12:52 PM today it posted (in this order) the Classic ZG unlock article, the Horrific Vision article, the Classic free transfer article, the Legendary cloak article, the cloak article again, the Classic transfer article again, the Horrific Vision article again, and the Classic ZG article again
all in the space of about 60 seconds
Would it be possible to have a webhook for WoWHead in Discord that announces the Shadowlands news only? Would the WoWHead team be interested in something like that?
That's what the In-Development one is for, with the addition of the Blizzard and Wowhead tags which they have stated several times will be in all webhooks.
Well - here it goes. The Blue Proto Drake mount is listed on WoW Head as a .89% drop. Yet on the same page it says about 25% of players have reported owning it. Certainly there are alot of variables at play here. But itβs kind of hard to grasp when you see a mount that drops maybe twice or even three times as much but it will be like 5-10% of players report owning it.
So I guess my questions are - is the Blue Proto Drake mount considered an exceptionally rare mount? And, is the drop rate of .89% accurate or is the drop rate higher/lower?
We don't have precise numbers since not everyone uses Wowhead Client. Those who have Profiles on the site are more dedicated players so the percentage is higher.
You can refer to drop rates listed on the site but keep in mind that numbers are approximate
Alright, so I guess to categorize certain mountsβ rarity just go by the drop rate. So that would make the Blue Proto-Drake part of that family of mounts that are basically diamonds in the rough
I can't find the Blizzard source for this article? https://www.wowhead.com/news=311877/shadowlands-class-changes-preview-early-preview-of-class-changes-and-class-philo?webhook
It just says "Blizzard has shared a preview of the class changes coming in Shadowlands and their design philosophy going forwards."
Same for this one https://www.wowhead.com/news=311879/two-handed-frost-death-knights-windwalker-monks-and-dual-wield-brewmaster-monks-
@summer adder
Wtf no Paladin dual wield?
The heck is this
Thatβs alright. As a paladin I only need one hand free to anally fist demons, in the name of Tyr of course. Amen.
Lmao
All jokes aside, thanks for your help earlier folks. I asked those same questions on WoW subredditβs discord and got all kinds of flak. To be honest they seemed a little salty? Not sure.
@stoic acorn I think the simple answer to this question would've been "No, there is no way to filter only Shadowlands news".
Or a "Yes, there is with x example". Idk, just my opinion.
The closest you can get is just only subscribing to the In-Developement webhook. But you'll still get some Wowhead/Blizzard category news.
Yeah, so a "No, there is no way to filter only Shadowlands news". The response that was originally given came off as condescending with the addition on the end, as if I was already meant to know this answer.
None-the-less, I do appreciate the response β€οΈ
Sorry, didn't mean it that way, was just trying to forestall the question of why those can't be removed from the feed that everyone always asks π
nice new look u made for the today in wow
i really love that style and the options to choose if someone doesn't want to see legion or wod
its different! different bad! different evil!
Thanks! When there's a lull in alpha news, we'll look into making a newspost and seeing if we can add more things to track to older categories, now that we have more space π
It looks lovely! Fantastic job on it πβ€οΈ
(Also is Legion Invasions supposed to be in the BFA tab still? π )
Really loving the new Today in WoW - great job! Looks clean and sleek
(Also is Legion Invasions supposed to be in the BFA tab still? π )
@upbeat karma no, thx, fixed. :)
Does Wowhead have a feature that will tell you what your characterβs rarest mount is? Saw it mentioned in β17 but when looking on Wowhead I only see it listing all the mounts you have with a couple other stats, nothing related to rarity though.
@hardy bloom where ?
idk just ask here
Hi , I need help setting up the bot in my server could some one help me please and thank you!
Grats wowhead team. Excellent site layout! π
Is there anywhere on wowhead where one can easily find which work orders are up in BFA and Legion? I hate missing free Expulsom or Blood of Sargeras, but I also hate logging onto all of my alts just to check what profession work orders are up
Also, the new look for the daily info on the front page looks great!
@manic turtle https://www.wowhead.com/world-quests/bfa/na
that?
is there any way to see which reward it is today? or do I still have to log in for that?
uhhh, look at the world quest list and look for it?
The world quest list/rewards are at the bottom of the page.
whoever wants them - i found the music files for Shadowlands
i can provide the ids if its helpful
3194029, 3552894, 3552890, 3552898, 3552896
giving some feedback
Im seeing this in the covenants deep dive https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/411187738520322050/697760113842323557/unknown.png
venthyr as purple and necrolord as red is confusing
given that red and black are the venthyr's most prominent colors
I thought Night Fae were purple, Venthyr red, Necrolord green π
@rocky acorn we are having some polls on twitter to decide the colors
if Blizzard doesn't do that π
ic
i mean
you can look at the zones
maldraxxus is green and red
kyrian color fits
venthyr is red and grey and some oranges
realistically, maldraxxus as like slime green makes the most sense
or the necromancy purple
i would go with green
no other zone is
leaves weird orange for the maw
and red for venthyr
venthyr are literally vampies = blood
scourge = plague = green = maldraxxus
maw has orange sky/fog
also big slime stuff all over the zone
so uh - i have alpha access - does the staff need pictures of quest text or anything?
Question: adding Profile character not found, looking everywhere for support I can find the character on armory, any advice would be helpful thank you in advance
@kindred crown Need name, region and realm.
Blizzard's API doesn't respond with any information for that character.
Did you do anything with it recently? Delete/restore/server transfer?
That could be the issue. Unfortunately I have no way to know. All I can say is Blizzard provides no data so we can't display anything.
Thank you for your help
Just have to wait on what ever blizzard does to read armory
I just find it strange you can see the character on armory with latest changes but can't fetch the profile... once again many thanks
I agree, Blizzard must be using their own internal system, or the system it's using is updated more quickly than the third party API endpoints.
I have just got it I removed battlenet account link both wowhead and battlenet and reactivated it, I now have the profile
Hope that will help someone else one day π
Not sure why but wowhead.com won't let me load the beta page for the dressing room. Can't see the sprite darter set.
Thank you so much for all the info and work you guys do I do appreciate that guys keep it up
Can't seem to add the path for the alpha on the wowhead client π€
@fickle pecan client doesn't support alpha, we usually don't pursue that until beta.
@spice abyss thx 
Gotcha!
When uploading screenshots for NPCs on the alpha, do you know of another addon that'll let me see NPC IDs on mouseover? Just to make sure I'm uploading screenshots to the correct NPCs?
idtip
does the wowhead twitch overlay work with the alpha?
no
ok
So flattered, the steward ability I actually have on my steward today
Itβs one of the random abilities your steward can just have
That could be the case for some of the others too
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=8523/field-testing-kit this item is incorrectly marked as not available. I have it in my inventory right now.
It was annoying trying to find it, since it doesn't show up in item searches π
We're pretty heavily occupied with Shadowlands stuff but we'll see about removing that flag when an opportunity presents itself. Thanks! π
Understndable ^^
@tiny vault Actually, it's already done (it's a very easy thing to do).
Trying to use the item filters, getting that consistently
Please include the URL so we can look into it when we can please.
Did you guys remove the wow token price from the "today in Azeroth" section? I was certain it was still there yesterday
its there for me, in all views
if you are in the faction view its in the third line on the bottom, otherwise just above the map
hi, problem with ashenval quest, this url not ok https://fr.classic.wowhead.com/ashenvale-quests
It didn't show for me when I asked it, just went directly from daily quest reset to world quest maps
I just discovered the Wowhead twitch extension (such a cool idea) but it isn't working for me. When I add my character, it doesn't "save" the character. When I view my stream, I only see an error - "Oops! Something went wrong while loading the extension config. (0)"
Is there anything I did wrong or is this broken on wowhead's end? (Following advice from this post, I came here https://www.wowhead.com/news=283434/wowheads-twitch-extension-now-live-talent-and-gear-overlay-for-streamers )
@fathom mango @edgy schooner we'll look into those server errors when we can, Monday if not before. Thanks for letting us know.
@rancid copper it only works for live/BFA, are you using it for that? If so, what's the name, region and realm please?
Yep live. Quetzie on Aerie Peak (US)
US*
I also tried it in two browsers (chrome and firefox) with the same result. I tried both Aerie Peak and Aerie-Peak.
@rancid copper Are you running any ad or script blockers? They've been known to block the connection to Blizzard from Twitch/Wowhead, etc.
Anyone knows if there is any way to fix the double/triple posting done by the Wowhead Webhook that is added by Jeeves? Lately every news item is doubled, and sometimes it posts up to four of the same news item, latest is the New Troll Character Customization Options in Shadowlands , while Classic Noblegarden Holiday Guide - Hunt Eggs for RP Gear and New Undead Character Customization Options in Shadowlands - Hide Bones were posted trice.
In the webhooks list on our server the only Wowhead webhook is the webhook was added by Jeeves some time ago, so no duplicates there.
In the same channel we have several other webhooks, like for example Icy Veins news, but those are only posted once.
Started happening consistently about a month ago or so, and they are all posted at the exact same second, so no delay in between
@spice solar The channel only has one Wowhead Webhook listed in it?
Yes, the entire server only has one Wowhead Webhook
You can't assign a webhook to an entire server, it's by channel, but okay... I assume I understand what you mean.
Yes, it only has one Wowhead Webhook in the list, and its posting to that one channel
If that is the case then you should only be getting 1 from each news post (assuming you're subbed to 'all news'), however, there has been issues in the past on Discord's end of the pipeline that has resulted in double posts... though I've only encountered 3-4 of a post on rare rare occasions.
For us every single Wowhead news item is posted atleast twice
With a few occasional ones posting up to four times
You mind sending me an invite to your server and associated permissions so I can take a peak?
the shadowlands covenant ability post from yesterday got posted 5 or 6 times in one of the servers I'm in
Sure, hang on and ill get it up and running @teal dragon
@rancid copper It's possible, depending on their set up, sure. There's unfortunately to many variables for me to comment on other people's servers without having appropriate access to them.
But most of the others were only posting once is my point. A couple post 4, 5, or 6 times, most doing the proper once.
so it's strange, and not uncommon IME
as far as the wowhead extension - it's working to connect my charcter but now it won't save the location lol
Ah I see. Yeah it's just hard to say. There's over 25,000 servers with webhooks, it can be a hiccup on our end that results in extra sends, it could be a hiccup on Discord's end where they pushed that info more than once... it could be improper set up, or unknown variables. It's just hard to track because we don't control the entire pipeline. Frustrating to be sure.
Well my character works now (I didn't realize I'd have to restart my stream, whoops) but the location select keeps resetting to 'top left' every time, regardless of where I select it to go.
Okay @rancid copper I'd have to ask about that whole ad/script blocker thing again.
In chrome yes in Firefox no
Sorry I didn't respond earlier lol
I'm making changes in FF and it's not 'sticking', even when I toggle my stream on and off.
Hmm, I tested and it doesn't stick for me either.
Although mine is stuck at Top Right.
That's on a live stream, let me check something.
Live or not it's not keeping the position preference for me either. I'll have to make a ticket for that, not sure how much of a priority it'll be at this time though. Sorry @rancid copper
NP, I'm sure it's low on the list but wanted to check in π thanks
Of course, I'm glad the main functionality is working for you at least π
Re: Teddie's issue: we're testing a new channel with a new webhook to see the outcome as compared to the one added by Jeeves. We'll see how it goes.
Edit: issue resolved. If you added the webhook via Jeeves and have this duplicate issue, you may want to remove that webhook on Discord's end for that channel and then just add a new one from your own Wowhead account instead. In this case, that took care of the problem. Thanks!
the mail set is missing from the new venthyr armor article
fixed, should be cloth/leather/plate not mail
Is there any way to switch the warfront tracker on the front page from % to time remaining when it's on attacking?
why is the text for the faun ardenweald stuff the chrraces.db2 when you are referencing the alliedraces.db2?
you selected the skeleton,vrykul,tuskarr and foresttroll
who have been there since legion
also im not a fan of the rampant speculation
especially since the ncromancers have 1 model
and are in that list too
didn't GM do a video on this?
idk
yeah id check his channel he did do a video on it
i know how it works
i did research on it myself
there werent changes made to chrraces - the changes made were made to the alliedrace.db2
and so the data in the article is wonky
I haven't looked at it and im not my pc will crash if i try
idk what the problem is id try to help.
the problem is the article info is wrong
the 4 npcs they selected are in chrraces
but the strings they are showing are from the alliedraces.db2
its literally two datasets smooshed together
okay.......
im here to tell them so they fix the article
this is also the feedback channel
if something is wrong with an article, you post here
i know
Is there a noblegarden easter egg wowhead hunt for 2020?
'gnome character update'-article seems to have broken screenshot link or something
2 of male skin tones i think
Looks fine to me. 
oh, then my browser just sucks or something
showed it as broken link
but it's 1. male and 2. gnome, so who cares
restarted my browser to see if i needed to update it to see them, now it doesn't show that broken icon even, but there's little empty space were those skin tones should be π
@hardy bloom i did that table thing
in excel
what's wrong ?
it's allied race.db2
I just extended the colum with chrrace string
that is connected with chrrace id from allied race
AlliedRace.db2 field RaceID -> ChrRaces ID
but those are different
the tuskarr race id refers to a different texture
the tuskarr texture
like - vrykul still use the reference in chrraces
open alliedrace.db2
raceid should be second field
those 4 added ones
that is PH reference for ChrRaces
then u have in same row field that point to crests, chr background
and male / female displayid's
that are connected to covenant creature models also Placeholders
the ones in allied races arent placeholders tho
they all point to actual textures
of the relevant creatures
AlliedRace ID: 111, point to Race ID 15 that is Skeleton, Crest Texture that is AlliedRace-Crest-Voidelf.blp, Model bg color that is AlliedRace-UnlockingFrame-ModelBackground-Nightborne.blp Male creature display id 93894 * Female id 93898, without requirments for unlocking it.
All this here for me is an placeholder row
but good to be used to speculate only that they plan to change all of this data to correct values in 9.2. or 9.3
but the texture data from the alliedrace.db2 isnt the same
so isnt it just more likely they are only using certain parts of the db2?
especially since none of the stuff in chrraces references anything tied to the new alliedrace entries?
btw you guys should do a maw article
theres the eye of the jailer buffs which tie in with how that works based on the gameinformer article
this stuff
bit more advanced but yes
the only thing i dont recognize specifically is "deathballs"
well, we have the buffs to back this up now
and they arent mentioned in the torghast article because they are maw, not torghast
ah
I have a post on that to make
that explains how that system works
spoiler: think of cops in GTA π
Basically docile until you hang around them too much?
hello, is it possible to share the custom profiler lists we create on wowhead?
Should be able to just share the URL, presumably. Can always test by trying to open the link while logged out or in a incognito mode.
@teal dragon i did try that, says the list doesn't exist or has been deleted
url only works if i'm logged in
What's the URL?
@teal dragon https://www.wowhead.com/list=207946045
You had it private, but I'm not sure if being public actually makes it viewable for others. It'd take at least 10 minutes to find out for sure.
This custom profile seems unnecessary though, why not just use the dressing room? Doesn't seem like there's much to it.
how do i make it public? couldn't find that
i like having a bis gear list so i don't have to keep checking where stuff drops from
didn't know the dressing room accomplished that as well
just tried the dressing room, it's not the same thing, it's more a looks tool, that's not what i need
the custom profiler is perfect for what i want, would just love to be able to share it with friends
@tacit adder I made it public and now that 10m has passed it seems to work logged out now.
@teal dragon it's working now!
is there way i can make them public myself in the future?
You'll see it here: https://www.wowhead.com/user=Tangnaran#lists
Oh yes, sorry, I don't see that since I'm not logged in your account. I come at it from a different direction.
yea, that makes sense, my bad
thanks a lot @teal dragon, really helpful
been using this feature for a long time now
Happy to help. :)
Hi - bit of a last resort to post here but I can't see the 'followers' tab on the Wowhead site. I've verified, installed wowclient, uploaded (done seven times) and yet still no tab in the browser.
Any ideas?
Hello have started levling my old Druid and i need to learn it all anew so i did check some things and on https://www.wowhead.com/feral-druid-rotation-guide it say "People frequently ask about openers"(just to get you too right area) and further down it tells spells to cast, you can use both Berserk and Tiger's Fury while Prowled then you can do prowl first (after you have Bloodtalons Regrowth yourself if you have that talent) and then cast the two buffs so you get more seconds of the buffs in the combat
@teal dragon AdblockPlus is blocking this year's egg hunt image since it's hosted on services.zam.com which is on Easylist's blacklist
thus you'll probably see people complaining they don't see anything on the correct item's page
-sigh-... AdBlock... always pissing me off.
@dark stone I moved the image to a different host.
The link for https://classic.wowhead.com/eastern-kingdoms under the Database > Zones > Kalimdor throws up a Server Error. Same for Eastern Kingdoms.
We'll look into it, thx for letting us know.
Bumping my message from yesterday : Hi - bit of a last resort to post here but I can't see the 'followers' tab on the Wowhead site. I've verified, installed wowclient, uploaded (done seven times) and yet still no tab in the browser.
I'm not sure we still collect or receive follower data @wanton basalt but provide your character's name, region and realm and I'll see what I can find out tomorrow.
@teal dragon Thanks for the response... my character in game is Matawaki, she is in Sporeggar EU and currently situated in The Cape of Stranglethorn.
@wanton basalt where are you looking for this followers tab?
Is this right? In the profile area?
What's the URL to that page?
The profile is not verified, or rather the data upload claims it's not.
How can I fix that?
The upload issue
Wowhead client appears to be working OK - and it has registered uploads
When was the last upload?
That sadly doesn't tell me the last time you uploaded successfully.
I'll assume that means you haven't recently.
Are you logged in to the game right now?
Is the Wowhead Looter enabled?
Yes
Can you see your followers in-game?
OK...here'es the thing, I dont think I have any followers.... (Im coming back to WOW after a long break - several years) but I was curious not just about the followers and the other stuff like heirlomes (which appear to the things I cant see).
You own heirlooms?
Well... no... not yet... so I'm assuming the tabs wont appear unless I actually have them then (sorry for being a n00b here)
Those tabs won't show if you don't have any associated with your account when you upload. There's no data so, you get it. Just keep uploading data as you play and level, as you acquire these things the Looter Addon will know and as long as you're regularly uploading to the site, after you exit the game, those tabs should appear.
OK - thank you for your help and patience.. I thought I was doing something wrong - now I know - appreciate it π
Just to be clear, the Wowhead Looter is the in-game addon and the Wowhead Client is the program on your computer that reads that add-on, updates it, and uploads it to the site.
Happy to help. Take care!
Yes, all good - I've already used the detail to help completing some achievements - really useful
Is this the right channel to ask about the wowhead discord webhook? I'm trying to create a webhook and it says there's already a webhook for the channel I've selected. In my discord server, there are no webhooks listed. How do I find this? Can I delete the existing one so I can create a new one? Or can I find the old one and re-add it?
@faint latch hi. Please delete existing webhook and create new one.
You can find your webhooks here https://www.wowhead.com/webhook
I don't see any webhooks listed when I go to that page
@crude urchin
Got it working by deleting the channel, making a new one, and making a new webhook for that channel. π
And I now see the new webhook listed under "Your Webhooks" at the bottom
There was nothing listed under webhooks in discord before. All fixed now, thanks
glad to hear your issue was solved. Let us know if there's anything else we can assist with
Someone else, or Jeeves, probably set up the webhook for him which is why he was having issues here. But he left the server so 
I'm having an issue with the #sweepstakes channel. I can see it, and go to it fine on my PC, but when accessing Discord on my Android phone, I don't see that channel in the list to the left, and when someone links the hashtag name, like I just did above, if I click on it, it does nothing. Discord told me it's not an issue on their end, and to check with y'all.
@solar fog Discord is wrong... I have the same problem with any channels I've muted on mobile.
After selecting our server, click the three dots on the top next to the server name. Click the 'Notifications' bell. Scroll to the bottom and see if you have #sweepstakes listed in the Overrides. If so, you'll have to click it and 'Unmute' for it to show on mobile. The fact that it doesn't even appear anymore, when muted, is 100% a Discord issue.
Hi, I'm trying to use the bagscanner feature but when I try to make my bag public, it ends into a Server Error...
Am I missing something ?
@broken nebula Not missing anything, some sort of bug... the bag scanner isn't a widely used feature so probably something broke that wasn't noticed.
for the article on torghast, i have images of another type of side quest
npc escort to another npc
@teal dragonI see, do you know by any chance an addon or a tool to export items in my bag and share it to people ?
@broken nebula the bug is fixed, you can make it public now and share the link with whomever.
Awesome π Thank you so much !
All my character profiles have vanished, and I can't seem to find a way to import a new character. Any way to restore them or re-add them?
Had you accessed them in-game in the past 30 days and had you updated them in the profiler since Dec.? If either isn't true they were required to be removed to comply with Blizzard's data management policies (i.e. GDPR/CCPA). You can bring them back if you've logged in again with them in the past 30 days once Blizzard adds it back to the API. @plucky fractal
Thanks Sas. I haven't logged in in far longer than that so that'll be the issue.
https://www.wowhead.com/weapons/class:2?filter=166;8;0 is giving me a server error page. I've tried other pages with similar filters, but server error.
I'm tryuint to look at the db for transmoggable weapons, everything added in an xpac that my class can use.
We'll look into it, thank you.
Hello I came here to check if itβs only happened on my side or not. The model viewer and any images on the site seems to take forever to completed loading for me but when I try accessing any overseas site it seems to be fine tho.
Is the ZG reset going to be put on the spash page like the other resets?
Possibly, eventually. π
@teal dragon Hi I recently bought a premium membership, but got charged twice. Who do I talk to to get one of them fixed?
@visual pawn Can discuss with me. Please send me a private message with your Wowhead username and email address please. Thank you.
Hey guys! This is more related to the Wowhead desktop client than the website, but I noticed the name of the program in Task Manager comes up as the entire description 
I love the client and thank you for providing it though!
@small ore ^
ha i'll look at that sometime, thanks
Lol that's a funny bug
Although this isn't directly related to the site, would it be fine to bring up a suggestion for the Discord server?
@solemn ermine of course
I don't know entirely what should be included in it, but I'd like to suggest to post a pinned message in #wow-help including links to and images for commonly asked questions or useful information for beginner players. Such as what to do when you hit level 120, what class to pick, etc etc.
I know there's a lot to cover, but just some sort of quick access to guides or information if people so wish to view.
it seems like a good idea, but out of experience, the people asking will never look for something that could actually answer the question before asking
I'm aware, it could be entirely useless and entirely up to the Wowhead team to decide if it's worth the effort, but I feel it could been useful in some cases. It's not like we can't help without them. Thank you however for listening to my suggestion. 
i have nothing to say, just another user
Is there an issue with the Profile Importer?
https://www.wowhead.com/account#battlenet --> Shows 99% of my characters in Red, even after clicking on the Refresh Character List Button-Element
@tranquil mural reload the page and try again. Please note that Blizzard changed their API to not provide data on characters that haven't been logged into in >30 days.
Does this screenshot fit the screenshot rules? I mean to upload it to each of the Goblin reputation pages on Retail to indicate the best place to drop a banner when farming Lost Rigger Cove solo
Do you guys have an idea when the Revendreth Covenant Plate set will be available in the fitting room (only seeing cloth, leather, & mail)?
- Thanks!
@surreal vine nop, that depends on Blizzard
@crystal olive could I get an answer to my question above?
and yes, I know it shows the battle standard name. I've already taken a second screenshot without it
@bold umbra I can't answer you because I don't work with screenshots. You're better off asking of the mods tagged with "Screenshots"
okay. @plucky fractal someone recommended I contact you with my question
@jovial drift @crude urchin sorry for the ping, but a staff member told me I should contact a mod with the Screenshots role for my question above
What's up Nzall?
I don't moderate screenshots, sorry
@plucky fractal read higher up. is that screenshot according the rules?
@crude urchin Then why do you have the screenshots role?
@bold umbra
The role is unrelated to your inquiry.
ah, okay. A bit confused then given what Anshlun said
The screenshot contains UI elements (name tags) and as such does not meet the requirements. Without said nametags, it would be fine.
is this better?
oh, nvm
that's the wrong one
ah damnit, forgot to hide my UI in the screenshot I took. Was it just the battle standard, or do I need to hide those of corpses as well?
No nametags should be visible of any kind.
okay, looks like I'll have to figure out a way to hide corpse nametags as well. Beyond the UI elements, any other problems with the screenshot?
I'd rather not have to go back and forth with a dozen differnt screenshots
There should be a shortcut to hide all nametags automatically.
The screenshot is fine if the purpose is to show the location to drop the banner. If you have flying, it's better to zoom in all the way as to not show your own character and that's generally not preferred.
Without flying, that won't work in this scenario though.
I have flying
In that case I'd opt to get on your flying mount, zoom in to first person view and take the screenshot that way.
That's a minor thing though, if you already have all the screenshots like this (not including UI) you don't have to redo them just to get rid of your character.
Just to keep in mind for future screenshots in that case.
okay. one last question: is the faction pages for the Steamwheedle reps an appropriate place to place such screnshots?
or would there be a better fitting page for a screenshot on where to drop your rep banner?
The faction pages would be fine for this, as well as the Insane in the Membrane achievement (I assume that's what the rep farm is for?)
Be sure to mention the note about it being the best spot to drop your banner for rep grinding in the description of the screenshot (in your own words).
so, my wowhead bot is offline.. how do I make it go online?
@staff
<@&299347348847329281>
Do not ping mods for this. Your question will be answered as soon as we see it.
As soon as im back at my desk, Iβll take a look into this.
Unless a staff member steps in before I do.
alright thank you
Okay, the bot probably needs a restart on the system it runs on "in the cloud" -- We will follow-up with you once that's been done.
Site feedback: As a wowhead.com user, loading a BfA cinematic at the top of each page for me to scroll by is kinda bothersome. It adds to the cluttered top of the page and could probably do without it.
Also the cinematics playing are from 8.1, so theyβre dated in terms of relevancy
It's a video ad unit. It plays cinematics only if there's no ad to play. It can be removed with a Premium subscription for $1 or less per month: https://www.wowhead.com/premium.
I've noticed that my profile has stopped updating my professions. In fact, it shows no professions at all, primary or secondary. I don't remember when this started, but I update my profile weeklyish and I remember seeing this happen several times. This is my profile: https://www.wowhead.com/list=8096798/us-lightbringer-palaurus
Blizzard shut down their professions API. We're waiting for them to create a new version, which they say they are. Until then there's no data to display.
Oh crap, that sucks. What about account data gathered by the client, does that just go into anonymous site data or can that be connected to a character profile?
The Client doesn't provide data to the profiler, it's all API. Even if we wanted to support that it'd likely run afoul of Blizzard's data regulation policies.
Oh, those new regulations with that 30 day thing? Sounds kind of silly if it's technically my data to be honest. Not being negative to you or Wowhead, but things like GDPR and similar policies sometimes make things inconvenient.
Oh they absolutely do, you'll get no argument here. We've expended quite a bit of resources just ensuring we're in compliance ourselves. Blizzard had even more to deal with for it, and yea, we have to comply with their policies or lose all access. It's just a reality we all have to contend with.
@amber sluice the bot can't be easily fixed right now, we'll be looking into it soon. Sorry for the inconvenience in the mean time.
thank you
hey @teal dragon look like you forgot to delete few testing comment https://www.wowhead.com/quest=14460/rite-of-honor#comments:id=2125230:reply=1346124 π
Server down ?
wrong place to ask
this is for wowhead feedback/support @crisp matrix
not wow support
I'm hoping this is the right place to make a request/suggestion? First off, I love the new feature where the front page can be sorted by expansion. Specifically under the WoD tab, I was hoping it would be possible to add the daily garrison trade post trader? Waiting for Ribchewer to come along so I can dump 10 characters worth of garrison resources into leather is a fairly common aspect of my daily routine and I imagine a lot of players do it for whatever trader/material is best for them profession-wise. Thanks for your time!
@stuck spindle The problem with WoD information (and all TiW information to some extent) is that most of this is obtained by users who visit the actual content, using our Wowhead Looter/Client, and subsequently upload that data to our site. We also have to have enough people do that to ensure the data is valid before it's displayed. With WoD... frankly very little data comes in and adding some things would just compound the issue further... users who may have otherwise gone and looked, but checked Wowhead instead, didn't go look and then info we were previously receiving, we no longer are. Thus a cycle begins with previous expansions that only gets worse as they grow older. ----- The suggestion is very much appreciated and we'll continue to evaluate adding new things, or even bringing back old ones, when the data allows it. Thank you!
@teal dragon Fair enough, that makes sense. I still log 10 of my characters out in their garrison so I'll look into running the add-on to see if that helps with data gathering at all. I prefer being instanced when I'm posting auctions and doing profession work, etc haha. I appreciate you taking it into consideration.
I realize that one person doesn't make all that much difference for your purposes, but I imagine every lil bit helps? Haha π
Hi -quick question does the wowhead twitch extension still work ? it just locks up for me .
While defeating Mythic N'zoth is really challenging, every player should be able to obtain Ahead of the Curve: N'Zoth the Corruptor. If you need help completing it, make sure to check for groups on amazing websites like PerkyPugs and Ready, Set, Dragon!, that offer you options for both learning groups or full carries with absolutely no cost.
Should add that PerkyPugs is US and Ready, Set, Dragon! is EU Horde
Should actually go through the whole guide and add that - there's a few spots they're mentioned
something wrong with fanbyte? cant log on wowhead with my fanbyte account. error 504 gateway time-out
wowhead.com site feels like it's super laggy atm, like it's getting crushed or something
Yeah, same for me. It's sloooow like hell.
Yeah, same from me. Like it is really bogged down or something.
+1 for slow. Still working great otherwise
it seems to only be slow when logged in
so I guess fanbyte has some problems and auth checks are taking their time
FYI: we're aware of the login issues, takes a bit longer on weekends to get these things corrected but it's being investigated. Sorry for the trouble in the meantime!
Edit: should be resolved or improving.
Can I ask a question here about the Quest Completionist Tool?
Can I ask a question here about the Quest Completionist Tool?
@hardy sapphire of course
Is there a way to delete characters from the character list? I can't find the option to do so. Characters I've deleted stay on there, even after an upload.
It's the WoW Classic one.
@hardy sapphire Yes, in your profile.
Ah, found it! Thanks!
If you have characters you haven't deleted, but don't want to see all around the site or in the various tools, you can switch them to Hidden as well without deleting. But, if you deleted them in-game you can just delete outright and move on.
Thanks for the tip. π
Feedback re: wowhead.com function Tools>Items>Dressing Room:
Highmountain Tauren are not displaying Horn Style.
@junior moon ^
but the current Horn Style number value is not being displayed in the listing to the right
yup. it's displaying the current number values for all the other character cosmetic changables, just not for Horn Style
like, it's showing Skin Color, Face, Hair Style, Hair Color, Facial Hair, and Tattoo Style... but not Horn Style
do you see "Horn Style" displayed in the listing?
Hair style = horn in dressing room atm for highmountain tauren
let me go to a barbershop, i suppose
but let me see how blizzard call it ingame
yeah, i'll check too, y'all could be entirely correct, wouldn't be the first time i was wrong lol π
ok crap should be called horn not hair
so atm if u wanna play with horns it's hair
I just put it on the bug list
will see to fix today
cool thanks -- so there is no hair style, it's horn style instead. sounds like a draw -- we can ALL be right!
appreciate y'all looking at it! y'all are always fantastic!
hey guys this is really frustrating... i try to upload my character data on wowhead.com but i cannot look up my character because my realm server Smolderweb doesn't exist/showup on the realm list.
https://www.wowhead.com/list THere is no realm for smolderweb
Load your character's Blizzard Battle.net profile or create a custom list.
@neat spear Pretty sure Smolderweb is a Classic server. There's no profiler for Classic, Blizzard has not created an API for it.
https://www.wowhead.com/news=312332/legendary-cloak-corruption-resistance-cap-increased-to-68 is incorrectly labeled as a Beta article.
Edit: fixed
The garrison guide is out of date I think
I tried the campfire strat and the NPCs simply weren't there, I had to take the portal in org (by talking to the orc) to the blasted lands and then enter the dark portal
entering the dark portal took me straight to the garrison starting location
NPCs and all
Something going on in the general forum?
You can report them for some wowhead rep
There's about a page and a half of it. Far too much work for some rep.
I'm not sure if someone has mentioned it before but on classic wowhead it's not clear when certain items are being released. At least for crafted items that require Cenarion Circle reputation. The recipes look to be released the crafted items look to be released in phase 6, while the recipes for said crafted items are released in phase 5. Is it possible to get some clarification on when these items are actually being released? Some examples below:
Sylvan Vest:
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=22756/sylvan-vest
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=22774/pattern-sylvan-vest
Gaea's Embrace:
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=22660/gaeas-embrace
https://classic.wowhead.com/item=22683/pattern-gaeas-embrace
@nocturne pasture hey, I have fixed these listings, thanks for the report! We manually added all phases items would be launched at and some things might have been wrong. As for clarification for when items are released, most of these are educated guesses based on when the items were originally released in Vanilla WoW, but as Blizzard starts changing their previously announced plans and releasing things outside of the previously announced phases, we might get things wrong sometimes π
Hello , does anyone know in wowhead online dressing room, how to have weapons on the monks back seethed ?
I cant find the option , he is always wielding the weapons, id like to see them on the back like he has them in idle seethed animation
Hello. It is possible to add Horrific Vision madnesses in tracker? Like M+ aff and other stuff
Hey all, im sure that this is something that was already brought up (hard to search for it). I would like to ask if it is deemed acceptable to limit "Classic news" to classic news? For example the last article is about Shadowlands, Paladin Covenant changes. Now one article every now and then isnt too bad, but in the past we've been getting spammed with shadowlands or retail news. There can be (there is) a separate feed for these, right?
Especially with the upcoming release of shadowlands I'm afraid that most of the news will be about retail and not classic. Scanning the titles imposes an additional mental overhead to something that should be plain and simple (subscribing to news relevant to a topic).
Hello @tranquil rivet. If I understand you correctly, you're talking about Discord webhooks?
mm yeah, the news bot feed i guess? apparently its working "as expected" on the website's news section π been navigating to the news via the discord bot posts for quite a while now.
@tranquil rivet right, you're talking about webhooks then. We have separate webhooks for each version of the game so you can opt-in to get updates only for a desired version at https://wowhead.com/webhook.
@crude urchin thanks for the replies btw! The classic hook seems to include a retails article every now and then. Its not all of them, but (quite) some definitely come through. π€ hmm
Looking at it, maybe its the "beta" tag / badge on the article? π€
@tranquil rivet could you please send me a screenshot of the page?
I'd like to see 'Your Webhooks' part.
I'll have to come back later with a screenshot once I've secured one (im not the one who set up our server). For now I can only provide a screenshot from the wowhead bot posts:
For the record, the second to last "Live" article linked by the bot was https://classic.wowhead.com/news=312122/dragons-of-nightmare-bug-fix-made-some-locations-spawn-dragons-twice?webhook
First two posts are fine since they're fall under Blizzard, Classic, Wowhead categories. Third post could be an oversight from our side caused by release of new beta build.
Yeah first two posts are expected π I see, this would explain it
@tranquil rivet I'd wait for an answer from Sas.
@tranquil rivet Hey, I can confirm that the Shadowlands post was indeed mistakenly labelled as Blizzard (and thus sent to all webhooks). We quickly saw the error and fixed the category, but the posts are sent to the webhooks as they are first posted on the site. Sometimes that happens, we're human and we get stuff wrong sometimes π¦ sorry for the inconvenience.
@orchid citrus I see, thanks for responding so quickly π also dont get me wrong, I was unsure if it was intended or a mistake and in case it is by design - let you guys know that its not very practical for the future with all the retail content around the content. No inconvenience at all in this case

@jade bronze we're not Blizzard site and can't assist with in-game issues. You can ask fellow players for a help at #wow-help.
@crude urchin okay great. Thanks!
Is there an issue with the website?
this is the homepage of the site, is there something wrong?
Seems some parts aren't loading
I've tried several browsers, and connections from different VPN points - all the same
Happening on my end as well
oh thank god, i was starting to think it was something broken on my end
Same here
started happenign about.... 10-15 minutes ago?
Something like that, all was well and then BLAMMO
my quest tracker dont refresh completed quest, someone knows if it happen at specific time?
You need to log out
from the game? or page?
Game
Blizzard only updates the chars on log out
The Dressing Room isnβt working
Both Male and Female Worgen wonβt load as well as Mechagnomes.
You're looking at Shadowlands, it's Alpha, so not everything will work. Try switching back to BFA/www instead.
The BfA one works, but Iβve seen those sets already lol. Will you guys be adding the new customization options to the Dressing Room?
BFA/www is for anything on live
if it's in alpha/beta it won't be on the live version
Once it hits live, it will be
Ohh I understand
@swift night The video in question is not unrelated. The person in the video is the one who the NPC's name is based on, and the comments on the page give further backstory about said artist.
Hi, I was trying to think of the best way to contact you all at wowhead about possible suggestion(s) for news items ands I figured this way may be the best, please let me know if there is another way that might be better. Anyways, the reason I am here is because tomorrow is Super Squirt Day (at least everything I have read says so). Rarely is there any sort of announcement and even more so it is in advance of that day, instead usually showing up at some point later on in the afternoon. I thought I may give a reminder here so that if it is something that you deem news worthy (which I feel it is considering the daily quests in Nazjatar used to be) , hopefully someone can make a news post about it to let people know. I now know to look into what dates it is as soon as I see that it is pet week nowadays, but for a long time there I did not so it was great having someone alert me to it. And there are still lots of players that are unaware of Super Squirt Day and it's magical properties that it has on their pets. Those people would probably really be happy if there was even some information to help them out with the ways to go about speed leveling their pets which is rather difficult at first and probably downright not possible without some sort of help or maybe a phd in Quantum Physics. I can't recall there ever being a news post about Super Squirt Day and to that extent one that included information about the addons to use, i.e. rematch and tdpetbattlescript, good places to find the scripts, like Xu-Fu's Pet batttle site (petguide.com), items that help and how to acquire them like the safari hat, and of course the pets that are used to do the powerleveling. Sorry about the long post here, I just kind of started to talk aboiut it and nect thing I knew it was TLDR.
TLDR: Maybe make a news post about Super Squirt Day tomorrow in US
is there a central person to email about news article suggestions at wowhead?
@sinful summit We usually post about Super Squirt Day, but @crystal olive is probably more likely to confirm if a post is planned or not.
Example article: https://www.wowhead.com/news=298824/super-squirt-day-for-us-realms-on-december-5th-level-battle-pets-quickly
@digital stag @sinful summit while it's relatively permissible to make news suggestions here, the best place is feedback@wowhead.com.
is it possible to preview the revendreth raid plate on the dressing room?
wanted to see how it look without helm on
couldn't find the items using the search bar
Hi, is there any way to know if I've ever completed a Daily quest with a particular character through Wowhead? I've already synced my bnet account and its working with non-repeatable quests.
Sadly no, Blizzard reset the completion flag for those quests on a frequent basis, so the API doesn't track it
the only way is if they have an achievement for it
I see, thank you.
Wowhead pages will automatically redirect to Wowhead Classic even though the page is not the same at all.
For example the Zul'Gurub heroic dungeon will redirect to the Classic Zul'Gurub Raid even though the information about them is different and not relevant to eachother.
Same goes for literally any Wowhead page that shares a name with a Wowhead Classic page.
This is extremely unhelpful π¦ I want to be able to view them separately without being redirected to Classic all the time.
(Yes I have popups and redirections blocked already, the site does it anyway)
@crude gale please click 'Classic' at the top of the screen to switch to https://classic.wowhead.com.
I know there's a menu but it does it automatically and won't let me choose
on phone there's not an option at all
Or at least on phone I can't find it if there is one. But it still does it automatically regardless
@crude gale you can select desired version by clicking on option 'Viewing BFA Data' (open drop down menu to see it).
How do I stop it from doing it automatically though?
Thanks for the screenshot 
oh yikes those screenshots are huge on desktop from mobile lmao, let me shrink them down π
Small version! (Desktop friendly lmao!)

Yeah thanks for screenshot there was no way I'd found it otherwise π
@crude gale cookie should be automatically added to your browser to remember your preference to stay on BFA.
Like I said I know there's a menu but my problem is it does it automatically every time π And redirections are blocked already
If youre just using Google to get to a page, you can check the URL on it; if its classic.wowhead, then itll be the Classic thing. If its not, then it isnt, haha!
You can also just add 'BFA' to the end of basically every search and have the retail version be the top each time.
If you search for a thing within the Wowhead search bar, then it remembers your preferences from the last thing you searched
I'm searching through Wowhead itself though and if I click a BFA item it will redirect every time
@crude gale after selecting the desired version your browser should remember your preference to stay on BFA.
Ah okay.
I would prefer to not be redirected to begin with, if I open the browser for the first time and click a link leading to a BFA page I'd rather not be immediately thrown to Classic every single time. I guess this is site feedback rather than support then :P
Clicking the menu is easy but if I search for a Classic item I expect to get to a Classic page
So when I search for a BFA item I'd like to get to the BFA page
Seems this icon is incorrect https://www.wowhead.com/icon=132999/unknown-icon
Should be this one
@crude gale we had to add the redirect after determining many users weren't aware of different versions of the page and frequently thought our data was inaccurate. Since a super majority of users visiting pages that existed as of Patch 1.13 wanted Classic, and still do, we added the redirect.
Now, we recognize that some users like yourself want to stay on live/bfa data so we added a cookie mechanism to remember your preference: after being redirected and then clicking that BFA toggle again, we'll stop redirecting while that cookie exists.
Sorry for the inconvenience but we had to take action based on the data we have available to us. Thank you for the feedback!
still the case after all that time?
Yep! Very little has changed in that respect.
Ah okay, that makes sense and is fair!
The toggle menu was not too obvious as a new user, on mobile it's even less accessible.
Thank you for taking time
Hello there i was wondering if any one could help me with something?
I am struggling to register to wowhead as i am not getting any validation emails. Both me and my partner have tried to register to Wowhead and neither of us are getting the verification email so cannot continue with our registration. Can anyone support?
@livid fiber did you check your spam folder?
Yeah and junk
there seems to be nothing coming through
and i am unable to reset my password for the account
due to the fact that my account has not been verified
Ok - send an email to feedback@wowhead.com explaining your issue and Sas will get you fixed up as soon as he can.
okay thank you very much
i did try to message on facebook but still have heard nothing about that. is that the same email?
@livid fiber if you emailed over the weekend I'm still working through them, and yes, the Contact Us button on Facebook goes to the same address. Please continue to be patient, thank you! 
Just had a thought... Wowhead weekly needs to be put on iHeartRadio :)
Does the dressing room just not work for Female Kul Tirans?
Hair is sticking out through helmets
I passed the bug report along Kata, ty.
do you guys know if there's any way of doing a more detailed search of the WH database than what the online site allows?
(for classic wow)
even more detailed?
All tools available to search the database are on the online site
I am writing an addon and I could use a way to get a table with easily accessible information
for example
I am now trying to improve the filter system of the cooking profession
the two drop downs are useless for cooking so I thought I could make one filter recipes based on what the food restores (health, mana, both, neither)
and the other filter based on the bonus provided
so I would need to get a list of all the possible bonuses
and then with that info I'll decide how to group various bonuses
right now the only thing I can do is go to the items database, filter for "crafted by a profession (cooking)" and then look at all the items one by one to see which bonus they provide
I don't know if the database itself is available, but having access to that would definitely help
also, the filter feels inconsistent with food items
for example
this filter
will show this item
however, this filter
does not return any item
even though this item is included in the database
don't get me wrong, I've been using wowhead as a player for-ever and I always loved it
I was just wondering if there was a more crude database interface that might be useful for doing more technical stuff
(and sorry for the wall of text)
We don't have an interface for that because that would make it easier for people to scrape the database and rehost it.
Yup, either feedback@wowhead.com or hit report in the database page in question
so for the filter thing I posted here I guess it would be better to write an email?
yea
thanks
@plucky fractal Blizzard changed their API to not provide data on characters that haven't been logged into in >30 days.
thank you yeah i have been on though?
i know about the inactive chars
but im active lol
ok thanks take care!
Okay, so, i have problem with site access. First, cloudflare ask me to find umbrellas and traffic lights, after it - wowhead doesnt load correctly.
From my phone (connected to wifi) - working perfectly
i can provide tracert to site support team, if needed
this problem also affect raidbots - it cant load tooltips (bc they loaded from wowhead)
My guess would be something caused by your VPN that you probably aren't using on mobile?
i have proxy script, but it doesnt work w/ wowhead. btw, tracert is clean, it goes straight to wowhead server, i can send u in pm
btw, it started 2 days ago, before - it worked with this script
You can send it, I'll ask someone tomorrow if they have any ideas.
hey guys i just subbed to wow and it still says im a starter edition account am idoing anything wrong (payment has been made ect )
This channel is for support about the Wowhead site, not WoW. You can try asking other players on #retail-wow or #classic-wow depending on which game version you're playing
thx sorry for posting in the wrong chat
no problem
Is it possible to get the site to display time left on warfronts rather than %? I wanna know how much time I have to get it done π
Strange issue with importing my char into the Dressingroom. I have been to my settings and refreshed the Battle.net chars/account and the char I'm trying to use is several years old and not recently added. I get "We could not load Rexpain on US-Area 52 from Blizzard Battle.net." even though Battle.net is running and the refresh above when swimmingly. Suggestions?
@plucky fractal what error message do you see?
it's stated above
Do you see any other error? Like 'Not Found' or 'Forbidden'?
@plucky fractal did you log into the character recently?
I'm logged in right now on it
please log out, wait a few minutes, and try to import the character once again.
haha, the standard "I have no idea" solution. Well, I'll do as you suggest, thank you
Information about characters that have been inactive for more than 30 days can't be loaded from Blizzard's API.
Tried it with a clean (read: no addons installed) browser (Google Chrome), logged in into WoWhead (via Battle.net) and tried with the exact same result. Also tried it with other (old) chars and it simply won't import (same errors as mentioned before).
Everything is active and the chars in question has been logged in the past 24 hours
I mean no disrespect (and I've supported WoWhead monetary-wise in the past), but jesus h christ! The amount of tracking/ads you have implemented on WoWhead is just staggering
Just tried the BFA attunement tool and the same thing there
Nothing is blocked on my end and my ISP does not block anything either
@plucky fractal kindly wait for an answer from Sas.
Will do, thank you
So it would seem, but Blizzard's API works fine with logging into WoWhead incl refreshing the char list in my Settings. I've also tried multiple chars with the same result
The character list you see on the Battle.net tab in your settings does not mean it's available in their API. It's a different system. Blizzard includes all the characters of your account there, even deleted ones... it's a full historical record (one in which we can't control or even see).
Note, the char in question is listed under my Settings
Now, let's focus on this one character a moment.
You said you were logged into it right now. When did you log into it most recently prior to now?
This has worked just fine some time ago
I'm a returning player, but I've been playing WoW for a month+ now
"Some time"... could you be more specific? There were a lot of changes this year from Blizzard with respect to character data to comply with GDPR/CCPA regulations.
Well, roughly 1.5 years ago IIRC
Back then, Blizzard didn't really hide inactive characters from their API... you could pull them up pretty much indefinitely. That's no longer the case.
30 days of inactivity, roughly, and it's gone.
If you only recently logged into it, and it was previously inactive >30 days, then it may take some time for Blizzard to add it back into the API.
Poor implementation, but understandable. I will try this feature in a month again.
Thank you for getting back to me
The only other thing I suggest you check is this link: https://account.blizzard.com/privacy#friend-privacy
Check the Game Data and Profile Privacy section to ensure that it shows as Enabled. If it doesn't say enabled then your privacy settings have been set to prevent third party access via APIs to your game data.
*checking&
I would imagine it's Enabled, it is by default, but it's worth checking to make sure.
You are quite right. That feature was disabled and it wasn't there ~1.5 years ago. Most likely due to GDPR, as you said. It has been enabled now.
The API is returning data now. You should be able to use the tools as expected. π
Now it works as intended. Thank you for your time. Much appreciated
Happy to help and you're welcome. Have a good weekend!
Same to you
Hello there, I wanted to use the Unlock Tracker for the allied races after coming back from a long break of WoW.
However the site gives me this error message when I try to load my character:
We could not load Chryss on EU-Dun Morogh from Blizzard Battle.net.
Blizzard returned this error message: Forbidden
Is this a known bug? is the service not working at the moment in general or should just try later again?
have you logged into that character recently?
Probably need to log in for the armory to pick up on it
read the discussion above, it goes trough all possible problems and ways to solve it
last ~40
that's enabled for me
still can't
still doesn't work
hey I needed to log out of my character now it works
thanks for your time uchur
@robust haven Weβre glad to hear the issue is resolved. Feel free to contact us if you have further concerns:)
Thanks for the Boost Hype Train there. π
Lol
Np
hey so when I search up an item and then click on it it goes to the page then automatically goes to the classic page
no matter how much I go back it goes to the classic page
main example is [Raw Sagefish]
it's what im searching
@proven scaffold please see https://discordapp.com/channels/107362567793422336/173241171064127489/660764773519982610
Once you're redirected there should be a dialog that appears on the upper right pointing to BFA asking if you want to go back to it. It only appears after a redirect and once you click back we remember that preference (so long as cookies are retained on your browser):
I saw that thanks
Hey all. Is there a way to filter items that have a unique transmog appearance?
I'd love to run a "Find all unique looking BoP mail leatherworking items", to see if it's worth it to make both a leather AND a mail wearin' leatherworker.
morning, i was wondering when the Castle Nathria raid sets will be added to the dressing room, cant wait to play around with them π
For the disc guide under corruption, it hasn't been updated that you cannot dispel the slow anymore.
https://www.wowhead.com/guides/discipline-priest-corruption
@vast pawn ^
If there was anything, we would have shared it. :D
it was a nothing build
might want to adjust the drop location of touch of Choas it's listed as Nef should be Hakkar. https://classic.wowhead.com/guides/warlock-dps-gear-pvp-bis-classic-wow
fixed
https://i.gyazo.com/94c3d5b1bd3d63ab869e0956b249ea7b.mp4 sooo is the dressing room just officially broken for all races now to look at sets or?? idk whats going on, idk if its just me or lol
no race works rlly
On Shadowlands? It's alpha, we're showing what we can. It'll improve over time.
oh ok, never used to glitch like that but o
Each build introduces new data, that data needs to be interpreted, or sometimes data is missing entirely. Each build will bring around fixes and new bugs, and our model viewers will also have changes made to accommodate the new data, or new data types. It's all rather complicated but rest assured the model team is always doing their best to display all they can in the model viewer (but it's based off of alpha data, not a combination of live/alpha, so there are holes). Hope that helps explain it a bit.
thank you
as i have wowhead sites open that have a moving weakaura export it stops my youtube or twitch videos/streams every few seconds for a second
don't know if anyone else have this problem too
I have not heard of anyone else having that problem. I tried to replicate it myself just now, watched some Twitch streamer, played a YouTube video, while another tab had the WeakAuras animation happening... no interruptions happened on my end. The WeakAuras animation you see isn't a video or even a gif either, it's just CSS. I have no idea how it could interfere with video playback elsewhere.
it was not another tab i had a second window open on my second screen
as i minimized the wowhead window i got no problem and the weakaura thing stopped running after a few seconds it starts again and the video stocks
now that i know how to avoid it its not that big of a deal; but thx for testing it yourself π
hello i found 2 typos on https://classic.wowhead.com/guides/warlock-dps-enchants-classic-wow
first is under "Head & Leg Enchants for Warlocks" part on same site the explanation on Hoodoo Hex is exact same as for the Arcanum of Focus one enchant up π
and second is under "Cloak Enchants for Warlocks"
Classic Launch
it sand "Enchant Cloak - Greater Resistance" and then "Lesser Agility is the best overall enchant before phase 5, there aren't many enchants for your cloak that gives you general application combat stats." i think the Lesser Agility is correct spell but the link did get the wrong spell id π Enchant Cloak - Lesser Agility have Spell=13882 π
@vague lintel Thanks for the reports, I've fixed it
in the new class spell post
"NEW Triumph Touch of Death damage increases Fortifying Brew by an additional 5% maximum health while in Torghast."
this is under DH
its a monk power
will fix, blame Blizzard π
@twin iron, thank you for working so hard on https://www.wowhead.com/guides/night-fae-covenant-overview-abilities-soulbinds-rewards. I was just reading it and noticed that in the Class section after Priest, the next classes were embedded in the Priest container or even further embedded. I enjoyed reading about the Night Fae stuff.
the torments start at 13 @rich wyvern
in regards to the recent article
its because you get your first checkpoint at 7, you can go 18 levels from your starting point, and you get a broker every 3
so this occurs after 2 bosses and 2 brokers
or 1 boss and 1 broker if you start on 7
but once you reach 13 you can also start there and start with a torment
the number of stacks is not based on the number of the floor you are on
for example, Torment: Mort'regar's Echoes was the one I got
on the first floor i had it, it was 1% every 60 seconds
on the next floor, the stacks reset to 0
Correct, but it goes 2% every 60 seconds
and im pretty sure every 6 floors, you end up in a different area
but 13 makes sense
so you cant ever get more than 6% per
b/c the torments cycle with the zone you are in
and you change zones every 6 floors
so in a full run, you go through three zones
I see what you mean
not 100% sure
but based on the wording
and the stacks reseting each floor
and the fact they are area based
im not good enough to actually test
since that would realistically require starting on 13
but im sure some people are
@dry spade - thanks, it's fixed
I'm surprised to see this thread is from 2009 and no light theme has been implemented. Please, Wowhead? Give some of us the option of reading WITHOUT migraines >_<
Hello. How i do remove the notification i get from the website? π
@thorn needle https://www.wowhead.com/notifications/settings
Thank you, u are a legend
@vague lintel Thanks for the reports, I've fixed it
@crystal olive i see you fixed the first one looks good π but what about the other one under "Cloak Enchants for Warlocks" were it shows a enchant for "Enchant Cloak - Greater Resistance" and text for "enchant Cloak - Lesser Agility" π
@vague lintel doh, I pasted the cloak text under shoulders. Fixed π
"Class Trainers
Class Trainers are new the end of the new player experience as where it teaches you about choosing a spec."
I think I know what it's trying to say but I have to reread it a few times. Can this get rewritten?
Actually each of the bullet points under Class Trainers has issues (either with grammar or missing / substituted words)

in the most recent interview the devs mentioned this:
The team is monitoring BfA and thinking of additions that will give players rewards and goals to pursue while they wait for the pre-patch.
I have a suggestion for content, given wowhead's wide reach
who should I PM/DM to talk about it?
@rocky acorn feel free to post the suggestion here or send an email at feedback@wowhead.com if you wish to discuss it privately.
oh no need to discuss it privately, if I can post it in here then it's good
it's regarding the unobtainable warfront tints
this would be a good time to get the tints we haven't gotten yet, like the tier 3 black arathi tint
Wowhead doens't have any control over wow's content
that's the sort of feedback you'd post on the forums
or maybe reddit
this is the place to give feedback for wowhead's website, not WoW itself.
I know that
I'm suggesting a post about content that is in-game but hasn't been made available yet
is there anything wrong about that?
Oh, I see.
there appear to be discrepancies between the ret paladin talents in the class changes guide for shadowlands and the talent calculator for shadowlands
which one is right?
specifically sanctified wrath
hey, im trying to set up the news bot on my own server but cant find a way to connect the webhook to the site
if anyone could help it'd be greatly appreciated
@thick stream news bot?
That's a webhook. Not a bot.
Go here: https://www.wowhead.com/webhook
i worded that sentence poorly
i know its a webhook however im not sure how to connect it to the site
theres a link discord gives me with some text to copy right?
No, you set it up from our site. It redirects you to the Discord form for you to select the server and channel to attach it to. You start with us, not with Discord.
ah so i just add the webhook
Yep
when i added it to the server to test it out it didnt send anything but i assume its just cause there wasnt any news
alright thats it then tysm
Yea no news since you added it. It'll happen tho. yvw!
When trying to update my characters profile on wowhead it continues to say, "character does not exist #104" I've tried reconnecting Bnet, and relogging with now results. Last time it was updated was 22 days ago and nothing has changed.
Nevermind. Finally got it to update, thanks.
Hello, is it possible to set a default language for the website? To be specific, no matter which url you come from, like "fr.", "de." that it goes to the one i choose?
No, the language is only set by the subdomain in the URL.
