Addon that is up to date but the game states its not

I have curse forged, the addon is world boss timer. Curse forged states its up to date but the game states it is not. When installed it, it worked for two bosses then stopped all together. I tried to uninstall and reinstall and nothing. Other players are stating that theirs work fine, so what is the problem for me then. Can I get some help with this?

Up to date in curseforge means there isn’t a newer version. Up to date in game means it is written for the current patch. Tick the run out of date addons.

What do you mean by stopped? It doesnt stop, you see a boss spawn/die the addon tracks the timer of it. If someone shares the info with you over chat you will have a timer before the boss spawns. If you haven’t seen it yet, it’s blank. If you missed the timer and it spawned while you weren’t in range, it’s also blank and won’t appear again until you see it or the info is shared.

It’s really more useful for camping the same world bosses on multiple alts so you can switch between them and catch each spawn on time rather than farming all bosses on a single character.

Or maybe you toggled the window off? I think it’s like /wbt show to toggle it back on.

Also, what Ahnohla said about addons. Just because it’s “out of date” doesn’t always necessarily mean an addon won’t function, you can load it anyway. And yes, WBT shows out of date but is in fact functional :smiley:

I’ve been having this with add-on skins for Elvui, says there is an update, but I check curseforge and Tukui website where it says the update is and there is nothing.

Last update was Feb 11, 2022.

Think you replied to the wrong person, OP was having the world boss timer addon thing.

No, I thought you meant you had an issue updating the addon we’re talking about.

No, I’m having a similar issue with a different addon.

Sorry I can’t help you with TukUI or ElvUI issues I made my own interface and don’t use/am not familiar with them.

All good, was more or less just saying that I was having a similar issue and it may not actually be the addon is out of date per say. Could very well be up to date as per the website or whatever, but the game says it’s out of date for one reason or another.

Meh I looked anyway, and it was updated last month.

The current version of Tukui is 20.27 and was updated on 2022-06-09 .

https://www.tukui.org/download.php?client=win

You can download the client there ^ for windows to update it or download the newest version of the addon directly and manually extract it to your addons folder to update it.

Here’s the download link on the website I copied from if you don’t trust my direct download link -

Hope that helps, I tried.

Hey Mute,

your right, it was hidden. All I had to do type /wbt show and it was there. I have no idea why it got hidden, thanks for the help.
