Traveleres Log - Cant untrack items

I started tracking Battlegound wins(5). Then I decided I ddint want to do that so I unchecked the box and it went away for that toon. Now, its show Im tracking the same Battleground for all my characters. Even when I check them off, they appear the next day as checked.

Having the same issue. Every time I log into my main, the (previously tracked and then untracked) adventure guide steps keep popping up and I have to untrack them again. This has happened EVERY log in. :’)

Same, it is very annoying.

Glad to know its not just me. LOL

I’m having the same issue, I see the tracked item every time I log in on any character. Untracking it works for that login, but when I log into a different alt it’s back.

Tasks that I tracked & completed last month are now tracking automatically this month.

I think I figured it out, probably another low impact bug so low priority for a fix.

It seems to me that when tracking an objective on the trading post the game tracks it across all alts on the realm, while un-tracking it only applies to the one alt you did so on. (Also, clearing an objective does not appear to remove the tracking to it, just make it not appear after checking that it’s complete, so it will automatically show up as tracked again if it is still an available objective when the month rolls over.) So, when you un-track something then log into another alt it will still be tracked and if you then log out with that one still tracking it, when you log back in to the one you previously cleared it from it will be tracked again.

The way I got rid of them without doing a reset or disabling any add-ons was to go through and un-track the objectives on every alt one after another.

Alternately, I then figured out that the Traveler’s Log tracking is saved in your files in the realm’s folder’s “config-cache.wtf” file under “SET perksActivitiesPendingCompletion” and in each character’s folder’s “config-cache.wtf” under “SET trackedPerksActivities.” So going through while the game is off and deleting that line from each file will reset the tracking without having to log in and out a bunch of times.

Still an issue, even after going onto every alt, and untracking it, on every server even.

A very annoying bug.

Those things are still coming back at me.

That did it. What a slog it was but that fixed it.

I have a lot of characters and I had to nuke it from each and every one otherwise it would keep popping up but once I got them all it worked.

Found that the flag was also stored in “config-cache.old” and that sometimes the game will refresh/reactivate it by reading that file. I deleted all the files named “config-cache.old” to ensure the game didn’t read from it. Really @#$)(!@#! annoying!!! They need to fix this!

Here’s a one-liner that will remove these lines from all files in a subdirectory on a Mac. Run this in Terminal in your WTF/Account/[accountname]/ directory (with the WoW client not running) and it should fix it for that account.
find . -name 'config-cache.*' -exec sed -i '' -e '/perksActivitiesPendingCompletion/d' -e '/trackedPerksActivities/d' {} \;
