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.

Cartographer and Lightheaded

I am loving lightheaded, and cartographer, any way some one can tell me how to get these two great tastes to taste good together? I enjoy having the big red arrow pointing me where I need to go <work two jobs I like to get on and go go go> If anyone knows which versions are compatible or of a fix I would love to hear it.

Oh I have tom tom as well awesome program

Thank you

I think the version on curse.com is outdated. You may want to see if there's a newer version on http://files.wowace.com.

LightHeaded / Party Quests ?

Does LightHeaded work with Party Quests (Cosmos)?
I am not seeing LightHeaded with Blizzard default or Party Quests frame.
Other quest adds currently using QuestHistory (Emerald) and QuestLogLevelPatch (Cosmos).
Would love to use LightHeaded with Party Quests. Many of the players I group with use it and would be a pain to get them all to change to another Quest add.

I don't know, I don't use any of those addons. Either way, there's little I can do to "support" them.

Normaly Lightheaded works great with this fault but sometimes it doesn´t worked.

Any idea what it is ?

Make sure LightHeaded is the most recent version. That traceback makes absolutely no sense, since Ace2 and Rock are both involved. I really am not sure what to tell ya..

Search your addon folders for other addons using Dongle, and verify they are up to date as well.

Search your addon folders for other addons using Dongle, and verify they are up to date as well.
There are three addons: LightHeaded (newest one), ClearFont2d (newest one) and Clique (newest one but only running on a char without Lightheaded).
Strange is only the Date of the Dongle file: LightHeaded from 20.05., ClearFont2d from 21.05. and Clique from 28.05.

Hopefully there is a fix/workaround to this as I absolutely loved being able to click the coords from LH and just follow the arrow to my objective.


Thanks for an awesome mod!
I don't have anything to do with Cartographer. Nothing changed in TomTom, so something must have changed in that addon? TomTom will be adding this feature in the future. Which version of Cartographer are you using?

Great work.....

Fantastic addon. Couldn't live without it.
Any chance of making an updater program , similar to MobMap Updater , that parses the site for quests and comments and automatically updates them per computer?
Just idea, I think that it'd make things simpler.

No, it would make it simpler for you, and WoWHead would no longer allow this sort of parsing to happen. Add this addon as a favorite, and you get notified by email when its updated.

I think if you have waypoints and tomtom installed there is a slight overlap- both UI mods use the /way command to set a waypoint.

It seems Cartographer, at least on my machine, would block the command from getting to TomTom - removing Cartographer-Waypoints allows the /way command to get to TomTom.

I too like the arrow but I prefer the method TomTom displays the waypoint on the minimap.
