LightHeaded  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v100002-1.0.0-2022-12-15
by: Cladhaire [More]

Classic not updated at the moment, only retail.


LightHeaded is a very simple addon that displays quest information and comments from http://www.wowhead.com in game, eliminating the need to Alt-Tab when you get stuck on quest. This addon was inspired by qcomments and wowhead_quests, which both serve a similar purpose. Data is only loaded when you first request it, so you can be sure you're not using more memory than you need to.

I HIGHLY suggest using this addon with TomTom, another one of my addons (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...32-TomTom.html ). This allows you to simply click any coordinate in LightHeaded to add it to your map as a waypoint.

The following slash commands are valid:
  • /lh attach - Attaches the frame to the quest log
  • /lh detach - Detaches the frame, allows you to resize and move it
  • /lh sound - Toggles the open/close sound
  • /lh page - Toggles showing all comments on one page, or with multiple pages
  • /lh bgalpha <0.0-1.0> - Changes the alpha of the LH window background textures, so you can see the world.
  • /lh debug - Enables or disabled debug messages when loading quest databases
  • /lh config - Opens the LightHeaded configuration window
  • /lh autodetails - Toggle automatic opening of the Lightheaded window when clicking a quest in the objective tracker

LightHeaded now includes the English descriptions and introductory text for most of the quests in the game. This is disabled by default, but can be enabled for those players that are not playing in their native locale.

LightHeaded supports sending coordinates to TomTom, MapNotes, Cartographer2 and Cartographer3.

IMPORTANT: Addon authors that wish to use this API and data should
include the wowhead logo in the frame that displays this information.
They are kind enough to let me continue parsing their database, and we
owe them at least that much. Thank you.

Thanks for using my addons!

Updated 2022-12-15 for retail.

Are all 9 LightHeaded addons present and enabled? There's no reason this would be a problem except for a.) the addons being flagged as out of date or not enabled, b.) the addon is not installed correctly.

I have the "Load out of date addons" checked, and still wont load any quest data. I deleted all file and folder in the add on folder (everything) and reinstalled my addons and Lightheaded still wont load any data

Go to your addon selection screen and select "Load out of date addons".

Ah, looks like I updated the main adodn version number, but not the data addons. I'll make sure to do that on the next build.

Re: it stoped working

When patch 4.3.4 got active, the load out of date is cleared. Check it and LH works fine

I am. The updater isn't mine, and I cannot provide support for it. If you're talking about the MMOUI Minion available on this site, then you can post in the forums for that, as I can't provide individual support for it.

My advice is just to not use an updater for LightHeaded. There's no need.

No. Nothing's changed, literally.

Nah, no shouting. I'll try to take a look at this this weekend, but my time is stretched incredibly thin at the moment =/

I have no idea how to do what you did to fix this problem any suggestions on how to go about it?
If you don't know what to do it's probably best if you don't go digging around in there, and just wait for Cladhaire to fix it. Besides, he might shout at me otherwise.
