Quest log missing

Community General Discussion
1

Tried searching, but couldn’t find any answer…The quest log that it normally on the right of my screen is gone. I’ve tried searching through the various new options menu to see if I could find anything, without any luck.

I can still pull my quest journal up manually, but can’t seem to figure out how to get the overlay to show.

Anyone else have this issue and figure out how to fix it?

Thanks.

do you have any ui addons installed? i don’t think there’s a way to hide the objective tracker using the new edit mode but it may be hidden by an addon. also try untracking and retracking a quest/achievement and see if it pops up

I do have a few addons, namely bartender and DBM. I’ll see what happens if I disable bartender.

Thanks for the advice.

i’m having this same issue… along with empty pop up info boxes

If you pull up the map, do you still have quests showing there?
If you select one, it there an option to “track”?

(I just ask because I’ve encountered the game spontaneously untracking all active quests a couple of times in the past and I had to turn tracking back on for each of them)

Yes the objective box in edit mode

If you hit Esc and go into Edit Mode, do you see your quest log there? if not, it’s most certainly a conflicting add-on. I’d try disabling all add-ons and see if that fixes it, and then enable them one by one until you find the offending one.

I disabled every addon, it was still not working…I figured it out though.

I had to open edit mode, then at the top left, there’s a dropdown that says “Layout,” I switched that to classic and hit apply and the quest overlay popped back up. I then switched back to “modern” and it stayed. That is with my addons running.

So, if you’re having this issue, try changing the default editmode layout.

Good Luck!

Hi,

I have my quest log missing on just one of my characters. I did try all the above recommendations

  • uninstalled add ons
  • reset my settings for the interface
  • went into edit mode and tried changing the UI profile (none of the profiles have the quest log there)
  • at WOW tech support request renamed folders for version I am using
  • also closed and relaunched the game
  • checked for any updates (none were available)

Still missing the quest log for my one character. All others are normal.

Not sure what to do next. Any help is appreciated :slight_smile:
Thank you in advance.

Figured out what the problem was. Somehow I untracked all my quests once I tracked one of my quests it popped back up.

just incase someone else has had this issue and everything else was not working

I have a serious problem…; I tried to use the old-school ‘Atlas’ add-on. But; the add-on took away my ability to open my 'Quest Log - ‘L(default)’ and the ability to open the World Map - ‘M(default)’… Could anyone help me; since the problem affects ALL my characters?.. And; I can’t just reinstall WoW… b/c I am being forced to live w/o ALL of my income…

I fixed the issue… the “outdated?” addon of Carbonite was the fault!..
