Preamble
Last year Scott made the decision to step away from nUI development and maybe even WOW itself. So that his baby would go forward without his assistance he placed the addon under Creative Commons license to enable others to carry on maintaining it. I was one of the people he asked if I wanted to be one of the developers going forward. At the time I wasn't playing the game at all due to funds but as per usual, expansion came along and it was time to get my characters up to speed, as well as my addons. So I monitored the CurseForge page and found disappointing customers, I then emailed Scott and had no reply. I decided I would take up the baton and try and keep it at least running with as few problems as possible, my skills are not on par with Scott so it may take me longer to identify some errors than it would for him.
Scott's Last Patch Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 7.02.00.00
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Updated TOC for WoW
* Re-released under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommerical 3.0 Unported license
nUI is no longer author supported and is released to the public in the hopes that the
community will continue to support and grow nUI in the years to come. My sincere
thanks to everyone over the years who have helped make nUI what it is (was).
Now
I will keep this maintained as long as I am able to and try to keep WOW non access to a period of working I will of course fix any errors that are identifiable without access, or available via lowbie access if money causes me to take another break.
Going Forward
Depending on the legalities of the license, I will either attempt to create a more robust version of nUI using the newer Blizzard API functionality or more likely attempt to create my own UI from scratch, that works in a similar vein to nUI for those that just can't play without it, I sure missed those InfoPanels
Issues
I've now been added as an author on the curse project for nUI so can you please post any bugs and issues there where possible so that they can be tracked that little bit easier. But feel free to post here if you are unable to.
https://wow.curseforge.com/projects/nui/issues
Alternatives
Of course, like many others, we had problems with nUI that just couldn't easily be fixed or was getting too clunky to be worth using .. but the task of finding an alternative but similar UI is hard to come by .. so here are the ones I tried for a considerable while and will offer them as alternatives to enable you to play the game. All I believe are available via wow interface and may be enough for you to get by.

nUI : Dragonflight Status
Having watched Bellular's video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1Vo4YUFkqs it looks like they have made some significant UI changes and the action bar changes alone worries me on how they could break nUI.
Hopefully I will get into one of the tests to see the changes for myself but its early days yet and things may change.

Re: Not loading for hunters.
My main is a hunter and was playing it yesterday. Have you got any other existing characters to try ? Create a new hunter ? see what happens then. If you haven't already make sure you have the latest https://www.wowinterface.com/downloa...5-BugSack.html and buggrabber addon loaded in case there are loading errors that are happening in your case. Can you make sure that no addon is loaded by selecting all and then deselecting all, then selecting nUI ( and the aforementioned bug tracking addons). I noticed with Shadowlands that any new addon placed in the folder is automatically loaded, even if not explicitly ticked. Another option is that if you have used custom addons before some of your WTF files may have corrupted including those that nUI uses. So I would suggest because you said it affects hunters, go to your hunter's wtf > account > server > character folder and rename the nUI.lua file in that folder. See if the rebuilt file fixes the problem. If not work back and find any nUI.lua file ( I think the next will be at account level ) and do the same test. If none of these work... send a screenshot to [email protected] and I will see if I recognise the problem.

Finally managed to figure things out with the keybind issue
For some reason transferring the keybind from blizzard to nUI at the VARIABLES_LOADED event no longer works as planned as the buttons do not have access to the keybinds when they first want to update them.. so have them now updating on PLAYER_LOGIN. If you have a problem accessing nUI's quick bind system ( ctrl-alt-right click) I found that resetting my keybinds to the default resolved this issue. Bear in mind that this will remove all your keybinds that don't have default settings. This fix is in alpha version 9.0.1.36372.0a

Re: Re: Keybinding Issue
Thanks. So either .. something I did post pre-patch .. which I have been checking .. or something Blizzard did which is now plausible with those new keybind system changes.

Re: Keybinding Issue
The first I noticed them not working was after the prepatch. I had added a new addon to my list and had been playing around for awhile trying to see if I could get it back to normal before I posted about it here. |

Keybinding Issue
If anyone can confirm when they definitely last saw the nUI keybindings working that would be appreciated as I am wondering if Blizzards introduction of a new BindingUtil in 8.0.1 actually broke nUI's binding system.
https://www.townlong-yak.com/framexm...indingUtil.lua There is also a Quick Keybind system in place in wow now new to 9.0.1 which works similar, but not the same as nUI, and may be worth incorporating. https://www.townlong-yak.com/framexm...ickKeybind.lua

Re: Re: Main action Bar not showing keybinds
Well, the one line that was missing didn't resolve the keybinding issue.
However, there are other issues at play here as well. For example: You can't set an attribute with a function which is what nUI seems to be doing .. the PreClick function is called but not the actual function nor the nUI Keybindings frame appearing. I can't see any missing binding code between 8.0 patch and 9.0 patch of nUI. So I suspect there may be a wow specific change to the keybindings that involves more/different work than nUI is doing. I haven't used keybindings since Lich King for healing and only then on the main action bar so never really noticed how and win the buttons were updated. I'll keep perservering though.

Re: Main action Bar not showing keybinds
Edit: Found a potential line that I didn't put back in thinking it wasn't needed ( Scott called it ActionType in the secure code which I thought was whether it was an ACTION_BUTTON or another type of button and obviously pre-set in Blizzards template code. Anyway .. tried to test my change and of course the servers are messed up on all games ( tried Beta, PTR and Retail ) but in case you are playing while I am sleeping the change you need is in nUI_ButtonBar.lua. Somewhere near line 780 is the following block of code, I have marked the line to add. It should, in theory re-activate the keybinds. Lua Code:

Main action Bar not showing keybinds
Hello,
I noticed that the keybinds havent been showing on my main action bar when I first login. I can do a /nui rl and then they show up, but if I logout and back in they dont show again. I deleted my Cache, Interface and WTF folders and then only added Nui and got the same thing. Keybinds not showing up on main action bar. Again though doing the /nui rl does make them show. Can you take a look. |

!Kaliels Tracker
After some initial tests of my previous plugin addon for this addon I have added the plugin code as a feature of nUI allowing more trackers to have the potential of being added to the mover system for better integration into nUI's frame management.
This is currently applied to nUI Alpha patch 9.0.1.36322.1a giving people ample time to test it before being added to the Release version of nUI after a week or so.

Re: Re: Re: Quest Tracking
Had a quick look at various characters and it looks like for the most part the connection between nUI, !Kaliel's Tracker and my plugin that converts the two works fine .. but for simplicity sake I will see about adding the plugin code to nUI itself .. one less addon for me to monitor and track rofl. So watch out for an alpha patch to nUI.

Re: Re: Quest Tracking
That said .. my own gameplay is almost always to do with questing and levelling .. I rarely if at all do end game stuff except world quests. My preference would be to have multiple quest trackers based on what quests are being worked on at the time ..
EG. Professions, World Quests, Zone Quests, But needless to say, the built in quest watcher leaves much to be desired and although I like the map quest feature I miss the old map log book. So I would probably have an addon that has all 3 facilities .. then through in tracking those quests you haven't got for a set quest line ( I believe you can track all required quests in a quest line ) like Allied Race stuff. And loremaster quest lines etc. But this is just something in my head for nUI's eventual replacement ( on here as XrystalUI - still in its infancy ). For nUI's plugin system I was aiming for a generic Quest Tracker plugin that was then linked to a chosen addon that has a tracker display. Similar to how I have got the info bars ( titan, chocholatebar, dockingstation etc ).
