[sorry posted in wrong forums, mod move please]

Saved Variables is not saving to disk.

There were 300 or so users on and all I saw was

Code: Select all

CensusPlus_DoThisCharacter = nil
CensusPlus_PerCharInfo = {
	["Verbose"] = false,
	["PlayFinishSound"] = true,
}
that was in directory, C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\<my>\Nazgrel\Rickyrat\SavedVariables

I ran censusplus 2x and neither saved any information.

All WoW mods (including CensusPlus) will only update their .lua file once the game is closed off properly.. IE you typed /quit, /logout or used the Main Menu and choose Exit or Logout. If the game was closed via alt+f4 or you ended it another way, such as via task manager then the .lua files will not update at all.

If you were to view a file and were in game you will only see what was there before WoW was launched.

ALSO (this is the answer to your question)
CensusPlus will ONLY update the file located:
World of Warcraft/WTF/Accounts/<account>/SavedVariables/CensusPlus.lua

So make sure you are viewing the right file =)

Yup, you're looking in the wrong file =) THe file you are looking in is the per character settings file, not the data file which is located in the base SavedVariables directory =)
