Addon AboutMe - An in-game Storybook, you can edit - updated code attached 21 July 25

The attached file is an in-game Storybook (Journal, Notepad). It has nothing to do with quests.
After the addon is loaded for the first time, it will start tracking your characters and will automatically add entries into the story for each. It tracks a bunch of stuff and will make automatic entries whenever they occur (login, logout, achievement, level up, skill level up).
The addon also has an edit window that will allow you to add, delete and/or modify the story to suit your own desires. A hardcore roleplayer can record an entire backstory for their character.
WARNING: This is still a work in progress. Should you encounter any issues, LMK. I will be making further design changes, however, I believe that the pieces of information that get automatically recorded will be sufficient. I will probably just adjust colors, fonts, backgrounds and visual styles, leaving the core functions alone.
Please install and test for me. I have been satisfied with the results, but testing in the real world always reveals flaws. Thank you. 9 July 25, old code removed

I ALWAYS believe I know the answer. Turns out I rarely understand the question.

Uazole2✭✭✭This is the newest working version (3.1.5 on 8 July 2025) It has been greatly improved!!!!!
Lots of things have changed. The settings panel has lots of controls for everything that I could think of.
This version has controllable tracking for every skill line in the game. This addon will automatically record level increases for every skill line in the game. Tracking of each skill line's advancements can be turned ON (default) or OFF in the settings panel. However, please note that Racial Skills level advancement tracking is turned OFF by default.
If you want to track Racial Skills level increases, choose the race of your character (usually the top one) and turn that switch to ON. If you activate any of the other switches, you will record a message that uses the stated race, multiple switches ON will result in multiple line entries (not what you want, but harmless).
The reason for this is that the Racial Skills line uses a level advancement trigger that is different from the other skill lines. The Racial Skills line uses a single trigger, for all races, to indicate a level increase in the line. The character's actual race is not considered by this trigger, so individual switches have been provided to allow you to record only the message that states your character's correct race.
Unfortunately, ESO does not have a retrievable history for your character, so birthdate, past achievements and such are just not available. This addon can only track character events that occur after the date that it is added to the game. If you start a brand new character, only then will the character's entire life story be recorded.

Uazole2✭✭✭Newest version 4.1.7 dropped 9 July 2025
This zip file contains 4 files, in a folder named "AboutMe". Drop the AboutMe folder into your addons folder.
Fixed a few things, but mostly cosmetic changes.
The addon is still exhibiting some quirks. I am still working on it. It is almost there, but things could still be improved
Whenever you install a new version, it is best if you use a 3 step process:
1. Install the new version and then log in with a character
2. In the addon's settings panel, press Reset Story (Will erase any existing story)
3. Do a /reloadui or just log out
This same process should be done with each character, unless you want to retain old entries (You can edit the text later). If you retain old text in the story, new text might appear different. With a fresh start, the storybook will display the newest version of the preface text, and all of the automatic entries will be formatted using the same styles and colors.
Please leave feedback. Has anyone even tried this addon? removed older version 21 July 2025Edited by Uazole2 on 21 July 2025 13:12I ALWAYS believe I know the answer. Turns out I rarely understand the question.

Uazole2✭✭✭The reporting of CP is still not working as expected. Program is showing CP advances, but "unknown" as the CP type, instead of CRAFT, WARRIOR or FITNESS. Working on it.

Uazole2✭✭✭Newest version. posted 21 July 2025.
Significant changes.
Do a RESET STORY after loading to start your story again (losing all prior entries).
