Dugi guides no longer loads in game, this has been since WotLK Classic recent update.  Addon shows as 3.033 on Dugi download page, then as 3.040 once downloaded but as 3.031 ingame.

I’m confused, is it showing in game or it isn’t, a major inconsistency there. Since you said in game it shows 3.031 despite you installing 3.040 then do the following:

Can you please run your Dugi Installer.

1. Click on Options.
2. Check your game paths
   Default locations which does matter if you on purposely changed them:
   Retail = PathWorld of Warcraft_retail_
   Wrath Classic / TBC = PathWorld of Warcraft_classic_
   Classic Era = PathWorld of Warcraft_classic_era_
3. Click Repair
4. Click Okay x3 times.
5. Click Okay.
6. Click Reinstall

Run the game and check again, the guides should appear as 3.040

If you don’t have Retail and or Classic Era installed, you can eliminate the red highlight by clicking Ignore Retail / Ignore Classic Era check boxes, these are found far right hand side of each location field. With them checked, the Installer will no longer check those install paths. There’s no need to change the _client_ at the end of each install path.

Example 1: This is if you don’t have Retail and Classic Era installed

Example 2: This is if you don’t have Classic Era installed

Ignore my Drive letter.

It does NOT show in game fully loaded character, but it does show as an addon under addons (3.031) before entering game with a character.  On download page it shows as 3.033, and once downloaded the file shows as 3.040.

I have never (in 15+years of using Dugi) used the Dugi installer, I always download from the webpage download link.

Interesting. Okay, click on Members, click DugiGuides_Wrath_3.033.zip and save it to where you want it, note the file being saved IS DugiGuides_Wrath_3.040.zip
Extract it
Copy the DugisGuideViewerZ folder to your _classic_InterfaceAddOns folder
If it asks to overwrite the existing, choose Yes.

Exactly what I have done for every update.  Problem being the file inside the archieve is 3.031.  Maybe the url providing the link to 3.040 needs to be updated?

[Ozzi]

Take a look at the name of the file after clicking the download link

Name of file after download

Edits appear to be correct in the .toc file

Can you please redownload and confirm this?

[Ozzi]

This is mainly why I advised to use the installer, even if its just once.
Both ways I have shown you true and correct steps to over come this

[gaellin]

The 2nd method you shown is the mothod I have always used.  For some reason the download is not giving me 3.040 even though it shows this as the downloaded filename.  I usually also wipe the DugisGuideViewerZ directory before copying over from the downloaded zip.

I used the downloader just now, updateed correctly to 3.040.  Seems like maybe the link was not updated at the time I downloaded the zip.  Working now ty.

The place of where you are pasting the addon also needs to be precise. It needs to be in the _classic_InterfaceAddOns client game folder.
If you place it in the _classic_era_ that would be Classic
If you place it in the _retail_ that would be retail live client

Ill record a video from the point of clicking download link, to extracting, editing the .toc and then pasting to wrath, loading wrath, showing the addon.

Here’s the video https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T-ySp1ryRmXaNgbzDANe9roaz3-CaElz/view?usp=sharing
Take note the following:

• Yes, the download link is named 3.033 at this point it’s trivial.
• Upon clicking the link and save window prompt appearing file is in fact 3.040.
• I extracted and edited the .toc file, it is in fact showing 3.040 in name and version.
• I didn’t paste the files over but did demonstrate that the files that exist in my _classic_InterfaceAddOnsDugisGuideViewerZ is in fact 3.040 in the .toc.
• I loaded the game and under addons it is in fact 3.040.
• Under help it does show 3.033, that’s because 3.033 was a major update.
  3.040 was to fix minor errors and bugs, Dugi either forgot to make an announcement, but those are trivial changes, it doesn’t really matter if they are announced or not.
• The best place to find the current version is in the .toc file and in game AddOns buttons before login or after.

Can you please try and redownload the file from the website or at least use the installer (for now). If you are still doing manual install to pay more attention to the location _classic_InterfaceAddOns please.

I am trying to help you, I have been the whole time.

I am glad you resolved this, but, this still shows issues with the browser, perhaps try clearing your cache, ensuring that all options are checked to be sure.
If the issue still persists perhaps try this.
Installing a different browser for now, relog in to the members area and downloading the file using new browser.
If the issue still persists, uninstall new browser and then do the following.

1. While on the desktop, press ⊞ key and type Internet Options.
2. Click on Internet Options.
3. Click on Security tab.
4. Under Security level for this zone click Reset all zones to default level button.
5. Click Apply button.
6. Click OK button.
7. Reboot the computer.
8. Retry downloading the file.

You are welcome to use Notepad++ (free) to edit the .toc file and verify the ## Title and ## Version tags.
