How do you blacklist quests?

[Hi on Helium]

Hello there,

I'm loving the new questing feature, however I have yet to find a way to blacklist quests. I've asked around the forums, searched through the forums, even tried google'ing "black list quests with HB", nothing works. Some people have said that it's in the "questsettings.xml" file, while others(and the Dev.s) have said that it's in the particular profile. anyway, i've tried all the suggestions i've heard but have yet to find a way to get HB to blacklist quests. anyway, if you've found a way to blacklist quests, please share the code and include what file it's from. Also please include a couple lines both before and after the actual blacklisting code so i can be sure to place the code in the correct place. Thank you very much!

-Hi on Helium

P.S. i've attaching both my profile i've attempted to modify, as well as my QuestSettings.xml file which i've attempted to modify. please tell me what i'm doing wrong xD

its done within the profile, but u gotta add some tags, take a look in my questing profile here for an example of how to do it
afaik it doesnt mather where u add the questblacklist, just putting it in at the bottom of the profile should be fine.

Go here for a list put together by random users with quests ur gonna want to avoid, u can just copy&paste that whole list, remember to include the top and bottom line. To add new quests to the list, simply copy paste one of the old quests and replace the name of the quest and the quest ID(found on wowhead). Read what it says here, they show you how to obtain the quest id.

Please note that even if a quest is blacklisted its still gonna be picked up, just not completed

Edit: All quests you add need to be between the blacklist tags, this is how it should look

<QuestBlacklist>
<Quest ID="10538" Name="Boiling Blood" />
<Quest ID="10278" Name="The Warp Rifts" />
<Quest ID="10250" Name="Bloody Vengeance" />
<Quest ID="QUEST-ID" Name="FULL NAME OF THE QUEST" />
</QuestBlacklist>

This is how it shouldnt look:

<QuestBlacklist>
</QuestBlacklist>
<Quest ID="10538" Name="Boiling Blood" />
<Quest ID="10278" Name="The Warp Rifts" />
<Quest ID="10250" Name="Bloody Vengeance" />
<Quest ID="QUEST-ID" Name="FULL NAME OF THE QUEST" />

<QuestBlacklist>
<Quest ID="10538" Name="Boiling Blood" />
<Quest ID="10278" Name="The Warp Rifts" />
</QuestBlacklist>
<Quest ID="10250" Name="Bloody Vengeance" />
<Quest ID="QUEST-ID" Name="FULL NAME OF THE QUEST" />

Hope this helped, good luck!

When i try to add quests to my blacklist it works fine, but then when i open HB and load the profile it says "There are multiple root elements. Line 899, position 2."

View attachment 1-60_allb.xml

Look at last lines

QuestSettings.xml has nothing to do with the blacklist.
