I’m proud to announce that we have released our addon on WoWinterface and Curse WoW addon website.
This news doesn’t affect any of our existing users but it is important for you to know the difference.
The addon published in WoWInterface.com and Curse.com is called Dugi Questing Essential and it is a “guide less” version of our Dugi addon or you can also call it the Essential Mode only version of our Addon. The free guides and the guides that we sell are only available from our official website UltimateWoWGuide.com
IMPORTANT: If you do own and use Dugi Guides please don’t install the WoWInterface or Curse version of our addon as it will remove your Dugi Guides and turn it into an Essential Mode only version.
- Why did you publish the addon in WoWInterface and Curse?
We always wanted to publish our own public addon, and maintain it to a high standard and to also have a presence in the addon community and we think Dugi Questing Essential is a good idea that the WoW community would like. - Why didn’t you just publish the current addon with free guides?
We’re not exactly sure.. , because of the addon policy we didn’t think it was appropriate to publish our addon there with only the 1-20 guides while the rest of the guides is only available through our website. While it should be ok technically… it is almost like we’re publishing an addon with a string attached or the addon was limited because there was no way of turning off the guides which I think will be viewed negatively by the WoWInterface and Curse community which is not what we want. Dugi Questing Essential is just 100% addon and no guides are involved. - Is it possible for me to install both version of the addon?
To prevent addon conflicts and confusion between the two version of the our Addon we have it setup so that you can only install one version of our addon. - I own Dugi Guides (or like to use the Free Guides) should I ignore the WoWInterface / Curse version?
Yes, if you use our guides then ignore the WoWInterface / Curse version as it doesn’t contain any guide modules.
Also, since every time the word Addon Policy and Dugi Guides are mentioned there are always uncertainty whether it is a legal or not, the short answer is Yes it is 100% legal. We have been selling the in-game guides for over 3 years and Blizzard do not have a problem with it, here is the proof.

No problem as far as I can see. I am getting what I paid for and happy with it. I sure don’t see how you could maintain it if it were free.
Good Jog and keep it up.

if you do install using Curse, just go into your Wow addon folder, delete the folder
called DugisGuideViewerZ, then re-install via Dugi’s website, as you would do normally.
Then if it appears in the Curse Client again for update, just set it to Ignore, the curse
client will never update it then.
shouldnt be a problem really.

You should have the warning on curse site as i have to re install my current dugi guide twice.

Wasnt aware it would remove the purchased version.
