NotesUNeed v6.60.30300
New maintainer AJH16 !
Feature-rich, searchable Notes database with many automated features, and additional NuN tooltips for viewing note details.
Make Contact Notes on other Players, or General Notes on anything else.
This AddOn is for making your own custom notes on players, and quests, and items, etc. and does not come with any pre-made notes.
It does provide an Export and Import Feature for sharing of sets of notes, or publishing of note databases.

Hi all, I am taking over maintenance updates of this mod and looking for developers that would like to work with me on any new content to be added. I am very busy between a major project going on with my day job, a consulting business and a progression raiding schedule, but this mod is truly one of a kind and I want to see it keep going.
73 days ago
Sorry peeps, but I'm effectively retired.
I have removed the PayPal buttons from WoWInterface, which makes it easy to do - and I am TRYING to remove them from Curse &amp;amp; WoWUI also, which seems to be a lot trickier.
I may come back to WoW some time next year - but probably not...
If anyone wants to take over development then you can e-mail me at the contact e-mail below, and I will cooperate as needed.
Sorry, and thanks for all your support over the years.

Hi, Telic... no, I wouldn't say, that any further fixes are of higher priority than your real life :) Just take the time you need, because as you said, "some things are just more important than WoW" ;)
I don't think there is anybody around, who does not have an understanding.
I wish you the best for all you have to cope with... Thors Liebling

@Thors...
This hotfix is not the version that simply commented out the "Timed" line.
Someone else mentioned a new function that can be called instead of an old one to avoid the frame opening... and I removed the quest log buttons being displayed to avoid errors caused by them.
But let me know if THIS version needs any further HIGH PRIORITY fixes :)
187 days ago
Thanks, Telic, for the update. Since you have quite a lot of real life problems to deal with, users ought to be thankful to get at least a fix. If there is anything I can do to help out, please let me know by sending a PM.
In case the update is the hot fix someone posted on Curse "...comment the line out by adding two dashes to the front of it: --NuNF.NuN_UpdateQuestNotes("Timed");":
I tried it out on the German client and the annoying reopening of the quest frame wasn't there anymore. When moving to another zone however, the quest frame opened up once. I believe this is something folks can live with ;)
In case you made some more changes: /target Telic /salute
You have been updating NuN for so many years now, and almost always in time or even earlier, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! ;D

---------------------------------------
- toc update for WoW Patch 3.2
- removed quest log NuN buttons
187 days ago
Updates...
Sorry but been too busy with real life recently - some things are just more important than WoW
AlphaMap, PartySpotter, and MapNotes should all be compatible as Out of Date addons, although I will eventually release toc updates.
MozzFullWorldMap has an issue with the small Zone Map, and I have fixed and will release the 3.2 version tomorrow.
NotesUNeed sadly is the one I have hardly looked at - but I will probably release the modified version suggested on Curse as an emergency fix at some point.

The reason why I didn't have the quest frame problem was, that the char with which I did the testing earlier, did not have an open quest *argh*
With all my other chars having quests in the quest log, I have the same bug.
Here is the message from Swatter:

Can confirm the quest frame problem. Only, just the details half of the new Quest interface is popping up. Also, Swatter was running and never triggered.
188 days ago
I also confirm the problem of a quest frame that keeps appearing every few seconds... The problem happens even with only NuN loaded and all other addons disabled.
188 days ago
@Tridus, @ThorsLiebling: I am having the same problem that Tridus is having; the quest frame appears every few seconds. NuN is the only add-on enabled.
188 days ago
@ tridus:
must be another addon. Having Swatter installed, might be helpful to nail down the addon, that is causing your problem.
189 days ago
Having NUN enabled in 3.2 is causing a quest frame to appear every few seconds, as if I was trying to take a quest. It's showing quests I already have.
Not sure what causes it.
225 days ago
The auto- MapNote NPCs facility might not be working atm... NuN has fallen out of step with MapNotes and I'm currently looking at a major re-write of PartySpotter and MapNotes - although I would NOT be changing the note database structure of MapNotes
Let me know, or tell me if it is not working in some other way...

Hi Telic :)
Somehow I am having problems with adding notes when receiving quests. I just noticed this when questing in Northrend. I am not sure at the moment wether I am only having this problem in these "new" areas or in the old areas as well. Does somebody else also have this bug?
I am playing on the German client. I'll now try to log into the game on another computer, only having NUN running and see what happens. BTW, I already checked if I still have the feature turned on for making notes on the map when receiving quests.
Greetings from Germany! ;-)

If you're tracking friends/ignores with NuN, then you can't delete their underlying note.
If you are having trouble removing someone from as a Friend/Ignore, try one of the following slash commands :
/nun -i <name> : to stop NotesUNeed trying to ignore a player
/nun -f <name> : to stop NotesUNeed trying to befriend a player
... and then you should be able to delete their note.

AddOn data is only safe if you logout of your character using the proper Blizzard methods. If the game crashes, or your PC crashes, or you have a power failure, or you use Windows short cuts like Alt-F4 to end the game, etc, etc. then you can lose your notes.
As a result its always a good idea to make backups of your AddOn data.
If you have used the NotesUNeed Backup feature, then just log in and use the NotesUNeed Restore feature, and you should get all the notes back from the last time you backed up.
[NuN Backups are generally safe from being corrupted by game crashes or any of the above mentioned methods of data corruption. NuN Backups can only be corrupted if the game crashes during the few seconds when you actually use the Backup facility, or if you corrupt/delete your entire /WTF/ folder]
AddOn data is stored in the /WTF/ folder in your WoW game folder. So if you have manually backed up this folder, then restore it, and log in to the game and you should get your notes back.
If you haven't made any kind of Backups yourself, then you can try the following as a last resort :
Look for a file called NotesUNeed_bak.lua (or NotesUNeed.bak.lua?) in the /WTF/ directory path ...
/[WoW game folder]/WTF/Account/[ACCOUNT_NAME]/SavedVariables/
Move the NotesUNeed.lua file out of this folder, and rename the backup file to "NotesUNeed.lua", and then log in to the game. This is a backup file that WoW makes automatically, and hopefully you should get some of your old notes back.
If you move computers, or delete/corrupt your /WTF/ folder without making manual backups yourself - you've lost your notes.

Changes in v6.52.30000 from v6.51.30000
---------------------------------------
- fix to container item clicking to create notes / paste in to open notes
- some changes to avoid taint and prevent Action Blocked messages when using 'Set Focus' / 'Clear Focus'
- Right-clicking on unit frames to select player ratings will STILL taint the 'Set Focus' / 'Clear Focus' menu actions
Note that there should be no problems with focus actions via key bindings, slash commands, or macros.
A new slash command has been introduced to disable NuN right click menus, and prevent this problem entirely.
/nun -rightoff
This slash command will re-load your User Interface, so you will see a Blizzard loading screen for a few seconds.
But if you want to use focus actions from player drop down menus, then you should use the above slash command to disable the NuN menu option.
If you don't need the Blizzard 'Set Focus' or 'Clear Focus' drop down menu options, then you can leave NuN's right click menu enabled.
NotesUNeed will remember if you turned off right click menus between sessions, so you do not need to use this slash command every time you log in.
If you want to re-enable the NotesUNeed right click menus, then use the following slash command :
/nun -righton

Hi Telic,
I tested NotesUNeed v. 6.51.30000 on the German client. As far as I could see until now, there aren't any bugs. I just wanted to let you know.
Thank you very much for the fast update (as usual)!
Best wishes,
Lisa ;-)

Brilliant! I've been searching for an addon like this, even asked for it on UI customization forums, before someone showed me a link to this. Silly me, not finding this before! Exactly what I wanted, and more! You're a genious! :D

I downloaded v6.47.20400 today:
The NuN icons on the right side of the friendslist window are back again :)
Before the patch I would be able to see my notes when mousing over these icons. Now they won't show up. But when I click them, my NuN window opens and then I can read them. Just wanted to let you know. By the way, I am using the German client.
Thanks Telic for the update, it did solve the major problem :)

---------------------------------------
- NuN will now try to record Talent tree details when collecting information.
Players must be within range when you create the Note or use the Target Info button.
This information will be detailed in the Tooltip when :
a.) in the general Tooltip information for that Contact
The main Talent description will be based on the branch in which the most points have been spent
e.g. for a Shaman the description might read :
Elemental 40-7-23
b.) hovering over the Class button in the Contact note editing frame will give much more Talent details for that Player
NOTE : NuN does not try to gather this information automatically for Party/Guild members.
- fix to try and minimise the display of Contact tooltip details when hovering over General items with the same root name
624 days ago
@wafflicious
Yup, the <Alt> key functionality is an extra feature ;)
Sometimes I wanna list General notes without having to scroll past Contact notes... but simply clicking without the Alt key should show 'em all :)
624 days ago
Great stuff, thanks Telic :) I shall donate something to charity in your name... Seriously, your addon has made life so much easier..! :)
:EDIT:
Just tested the /script in a macro.. Works fine as it is, no need to hold Alt. Thanks again!
624 days ago
@wafflicious
Mmm, no slash command atm, but if you want a macro to do that then just try the following :
/script NuN_DisplayAll()
If you assign this macro to a button, then it should do what you want.
If you hold down the Alt key when using it, then NuN will only show General notes - like the Microbutton functionality.
You should see a PayPal Donate button above if you're really keen - but I've got an even better idea ;)
What ever you were considering giving to me, give it to a charity instead :D
624 days ago
Question/request for Telic!
Is it possible to add (if its not there already...) /NuN -* command to open the Notes Browser window? Would be great to put it into a macro and stick it on the side-bar :)
Other than that, this addon is invaluable to me.. Amazing work, so very impressed! Got a way to donate at all? ;)

1.) custom mounting positions ?
This had me puzzled, but I guess you mean Tooltip anchoring...?
I may think of offering a detached fixed anchored position at some point, but not gonna make it a priority.
My WoW account has lapsed atm, so I'm only really open for high priority bug fixes atm ;)
2.) smaller mouse-over notes
- there is a specific option for this : "Minimise MouseOver Target Tooltips"
- also, you can use the NuN options to change the total number of characters in a tooltip, and the number of characters per line.... all via the options.
Although these size restrictions affect ALL NuN Tooltips rather than just the NuN mouse-over tooltip.
625 days ago
2 suggestions:
1) custom mounting positions
2) smaller mouse-over notes (shorter width, text wrapped)
I want to see my player notes when I mouseover, but not take up half my screen width to do it.

@cyrus1469
Assuming you mean the Pinup (static) NuN Tooltip, then you should check out the NotesUNeed key bindings...
628 days ago
The one feature id love to see added is a Minimize button on the tooltip so you dont have to close it out than search for it again , once you find the tooltip you want to view you can just minimize it and maximize it when needed.

Changes in v6.43.20400 from v6.42.20400
---------------------------------------
- fix to note creation from Player name chat links
- can now use the NuN Modifier keys create notes directly from the AH Item buttons
i.e. the small square Item ICONS - and NOT the long main AH button with the item price, etc.
- correction to NuN Tooltip positioning when 'extra' Shopping Tooltips are displayed
- item notes from now on will ignore item Unique Identifiers, enchants, etc.

Honestly, I can't see a huge benefit, and can't be bothered.
653 days ago
Yeah, I'm sure a lot of people don't accidentally move the micros. Yet at the same time, this type of function is standard for pretty much any other UI addon you can think of and this is for a good reason.
Nothing I would stop using the addon over. Still works fantastic.

is there a function to lock the micro buttons in place. I cannot find it if so. If not, please consider it for the next update.

Eh? Pinup tooltips added?

Woot! I just checked back to see if NuN had been updated and discovered sticky tooltip pinups! Works exactly as I'd hoped it would! Thank you for adding this! :)

Changes in v6.41.20400 from v6.40.20300
---------------------------------------
- New Option to hide NuN Notes and Tooltips for Ignored players
(Note: this only hides ignored player notes in the Note browser frame - you can still open that players note via slash commands, or Microbuttons)
(Note2: only the NotesUNeed tooltip is hidden, not the Blizzard Game Tooltip)
- small compatibility changes to SendMessage hooks (hopefully more compatible with TellTrack
- allows manual entry of names beginning with special "accented" characters e.g. Á, É, etc...
(NOTE : Names beginning with these types of characters are sorted by the game to appear AFTER "Z" alphabetically)
(BETA Functionality)
- If you send a note to someone who already has a note with the same name, then the recipient will be shown a Warning Dialog box allowing them to choose whether they want to Replace their existing note, or cancel receipt of the note and keep their original version instead.
There is now also a third option allowing the sent note to be merged with the existing note by "ALT-Clicking" on the Replace button.
When notes are merged, then the newly sent text will be appended to the end of the existing note's text. Currently, other values such as those populated in DropDown boxes will still be set according to the received note, and will replace old values in the original note.

Dear Mr. Telic.
I regretfully have to decline your offer of sending you a reply via PM because......
You've exceeded your limit and need to CHECK MAIL ONCE IN A WHILE!!!

I'll send my reply later and see if it goes through.

Hi again Telic.
I sent you a PM here with some info about my addons. Hope you read the PM. If you would, if you see any addons in my list that you *think* may cause the conflict with the "who" button, list them here for me and I will try to test without them.
Thanks

@Azmak
NotesUNeed itself doesn't have a limit on the number of notes you can have. I have no idea if there is an upper limit to the size of SavedVariable files imposed by Blizzard.
I've tested with databases of ~2k notes and been fine, although obviously the more you have the more memory you are using. I've heard it reported that on slower PCs with more than a couple of thousand notes, then there can be significant pauses when doing text searches, but I've never encountered the problem, even when playing on a comparitively underpowered laptop.
NuN stores some information on a per character basis - although it doesn't use the Blizzard provided mechanism, and instead uses its own database structure. This was mainly because it needed to store per character information long before Blizzard introduced its own per toon based saved variables.
Also, even though some information is required to be stored on a per character basis, I sometimes still wanted the information to be available to other Alts - for example, QuestHistory, or Partying data...
Quest Notes and Quest Objective notes can be updated automatically by any of your characters, and this was obviously intentional. The purpose of the notes being purely informational and detailing what a particular quest involves, and where the objectives can be completed, rather than being mechanisms for tracking the progress of a particular toon on a specific quest.
Having said that, you should not get duplicate data appended to the notes; This is part of the reason I replace specific characters names and classes in quest notes with the tokens $N and $C.
(Having said that, its been on my to-do list for a while to allow more duplication in the Objectives note where an objective has been completed in a Zone you haven't noted before...)
Blizzard does re-jig things in patches though, so if you think you are getting duplicate data in a quest note from different toons, let me know and I'll re-check things.
(For example, I've just re-discovered that Alt-clicking on names in the chat frame doesn't seem to be working properly any more...when did that happen ?)
I've just tested the "Who" button myself, and it was working while the person was in a BG while I was in Shattrath, so seems fine to me.
The only specific AddOn I know that 'might' cause problems is SpamSentry because it uses the WhoLib library AddOn. I don't mean to accuse it unjustly, as I haven't tested it recently, but someone has previously reported problems with NuN Whos caused by it.
Basically, any AddOn using the "WhoLib" library AddOn might cause this issue - my apologies to WhoLib if these suspicions are unfounded.
Telic,
Now my posts are too long :'(

Hello again Telic.
Is there a limit to the number of notes NuN can keep? I am at 980+ notes and every so often I get worried I'm going to lose them.
Another question is (I can't recall if NuN uses profiles or not) assuming it doesn't ---
What happens when one alt does a quest then another alt does the same quest -- what happens to the note for that quest? Does it get changed or appended too? I am thinking of your quest objective notes in terms of whether it's appended to or not (locs and such). The normal quest notes hides the character's name in the text.
Regards,
PS: I have tried that "who" button when the player was standing right in front of me, talking to me and it didn't work. I will try later on to see if it works with no other addons. My addon list is extensive so I won't list the ones I use, but perhaps you know of some that for a fact, break your "who" button?
691 days ago
Hi Azmak,
I deleted your post because it was so loooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnng ;p
But I'm not ignoring you.
1.) If you want to immediately remove someone from your Friend or Ignore list and delete their note, then try the following slash command :
/nun -i <PLAYER_NAME>
for Ignores, OR
/nun -f <PLAYER_NAME>
for Friends.
Then delete the note. When you log in with your other Alts, that player should be removed from that Alt's Friend/Ignore list automatically (if you are using NuN to maintain your lists...)
2.) A Friend/Ignore list doesn't HAVE TO use notes, but that is the point of NotesUNeed, so that is how it maintains the lists, and I won't be changing it.
3.) I will consider an Option to hide Ignored player notes from the Note Browser window - that is a good idea :)
4.) The "Who Info" button gets the same information as the "/who...." slash command. So if the player is offline when you click the button, then the game returns NO information at all, and the button won't do anything.
Also, some other AddOns can interfere with this functionality. For example, SpamSentry, and some other AddOns use an Ace library that re-writes the /who interface and effectively break it as far as other non-Ace AddOns are concerned - or it used to I haven't checked recently.
If you still can't get the Who button to do anything when someone is online then please test with only NotesUNeed installed to see if it is a compatibility problem with another AddOn.
Telic,

Fair point, I'll see what I can do...

I created an NPC note for Moroes that lists the guests and what they do. There's a player on my server also named Moroes, and every time I mouseover him, I get the NPC note. Since NUN keeps track of whether a note is for an NPC or not, it should only show player notes for players and NPC notes for NPCs.

Might be in 20400 version if I get time to save the pinned note name...but I don't have time to add support pinning up multiple notes at the same time.
712 days ago
One feature:
sticky pin-up tooltips!
Every time I login, I have to retooltip my favorite notes that I use during the auction house. I'd love it if the addon would remember which notes I have pinned-up and automatically show them pinned up the next time I login. :))
Other than that, what a great addon. Kudos.

This should re-enable normal shortcut keys for cutting / pasting
722 days ago
Changes in v6.36.20300 from v6.35.20300
---------------------------------------
- the "[]" hyperlink button functionality can now be restricted to output individual hyperlinks, by highlighting them in the note text.
So if no text is highlighted, then the functionality is unchanged and all Hyperlinks are "echoed" to the Chat frame where they can be clicked.
But if you highlight individual Hyperlinks in the text before using the button, then only those will be "echoed"
- the "[]" hyperlink button will now also paste hyperlinks in to the chat frame edit box rather than "echoing" to the chat frame, IF the edit box is open
- can now use the <Control>-S shorcut key to save open NotesUNeed notes
This is the most common short key used to save documents in all types of word processors and notepads, and I won't be offering a way to modify it.
I am so used to using <Control>-S to save documents/scripts while writing them, that this has been on my wish-list for a long time ;p
- a chat frame message will now confirm when you manually save a note
- adjusted the position of the NuN Icon on the "Looking For More" frame to ensure the Raid leader symbol will be visible

Loot AddOn Clicks :
Nope, I don't plan on introducing this support for AtlasLoot either. Those item clicks can be a bit tricky with regard to whether items are safe or not, and I don't want to get involved in "hooking" them;
Its not THAT much harder to click them to the Chat frame, and then ALT-click the chat frame link to create the NuN note ;)
Escape Key :
You can already do this via the NuN Options -
"Alternative Note Edit Frame Behaviour"

Suggestion:
Focus off when you press ESC/off-click the first time, close the windows on a second ESC. Lot of times tried to reply to a whisper while editing notes and wind up spamming up my note with the response, then have to close the note, reply, reopen the note....
Just kind of a pain atm.
733 days ago
Suggestion:
Support for Cartographer's instance loot. As it stands, if you attempt to ALT-click item links to add to a note it doesn't do anything.
