ArkInventory
ArkInventory (for The War Within)
:boom: Please ensure you are using the latest alpha version if you have the War Within client.
ArkInventory (for Retail, Classic, and Cataclysm)
ArkInventory's display windows are built from "virtual bars", you assign categories to bars so that items in that category are displayed on the specific bars you want. There is no limit to the number of bars you can have inside a window but obviously you only have so much screen real estate before it becomes "too many".
ArkInventory uses several methods to assign a default category to an item such as what professions you have, tooltip scanning, basic type/subtype and PeriodicTable. You then assign those categories to a virtual bar.
You can also over-ride the default category by creating a rule that matches either a single or multiple items.
Overview:
- user configurable window width and height
- separate keybindings for each location for easy viewing
- assign items to a category of your choice (overrides the default assignment)
- assign categories to the bar of your choice
- unlimited number of bars (there are practical limits though before your screen becomes full)
- sort each bar differently if required
- user configurable bars per row
- sell junk items automatically or manually (delete available via a keybinding or right clicking when at a vendor)
- random pet and mount summons. can also assign a group of them to select from
Key Bindings:
- Press ESCAPE to bring up the blizzard menu
- click on Key Bindings
- scroll down to AddOns > ArkInventory
- bind the keys you want to use

:memo: If you are having an issue the first step is to disable all other mods and test with only ArkInventory loaded
:memo: If the issue is still there, please check for an existing issue and create a new issue if required.
:memo: If the issue is gone, re-enable your other mods one by one until the issue comes back, then note the last mod you enabled in your issue as well as notifying the author of the other mod
See ChangeHistory.md for changes to the latest version. See VersionHistory.md for all previous changes.
:boom: The NoLib variant
it seems quite a few people are somehow getting the NoLib variant from their download client when they didn't specifically ask for it, instead of the full variant, and its causing issues as they don't have the required libraries installed separately. Please ensure you are downloading the full. if you see nolib in the filename then its the wrong variant, unless you are actually installing all of the required libraries separately as well. If you have to you can manually download the full variant from CurseForge, WoWInterface, or Wago.
:boom: Junk Sell getting blocked
While auto-destroy remains blocked, From 30960 onwards you can setup a Key Binding to manually sell and destroy your items. Note that blizzard require one keypress per item deletion, so if you have multiple items that need to be deleted you will need to press the Key Binding multiple times. A message will be output if you have remaining items that can still be deleted.
:warning: Ensure you have backup copies of your saved variables file
Sometimes you cannot revert back to a previous version without a backup, especially alpha or beta versions, so before upgrading please make sure you have made a backup of your saved variables file
Your saved variables file is normally located at ...\World of Warcraft\_client_\WTF\Account\yourwowaccountname\SavedVariables\ArkInventory.lua
It is your responsibility to ensure you have adequate backups of your saved variables file. You dont have to do them frequently, just after you've made major changes to your config is probably fine for most people, but you should get into the habit of making backups because when it does corrupt you wont have to reconfigure everything from scratch.
If you have your download client set to automatically download alpha/beta versions you should definitely have backups.
A simple way to back up the saved variables file is to just do a copy and paste then rename the new file (using the version number of ArkInventory or the date is a good idea), eg ArkInventory-30900.lua, or ArkInventory-20191228.lua
On 10.1.5 getting this error, only error so far though

In reply to Dagnet: nvm, seems to happen only with the rarity addon enabled
Is there a way to remove Shadowflame Crests from the "Crafting Reagent" Category so that they don't get deposited into the bank when using the "Cleanup" feature? These should remain in bags, not in the bank in my opinion.
I now have 25 bars in edit mode, but I can't get them deleted. The action of the bar (xy) delete does not work
Hey! I have the WoW Classic Era version installed. Presently, the cache erase command will process but won't actually delete my cache data. I have even done a full uninstall of WoW Classic Era and a fresh install of all of the addons, but the old inventory data are still loading. Where can I find these so I can cleanse my inventory data?
ETA: On my "Character Switcher", I only have my one character, but when I open up the addon and hover an item, it will still list the names of characters I have since deleted as well as the quantities of that item they had prior to their deletion.
Completing the command: /arkinventory cache erase confirm
Appears to execute the command (I get a string of "ArkInvnetory: Saved X data for !ACCOUNT -100 has been erased" returns as well as "Saved X data for CharacterName - ServerName has been erased"), but the deleted character item counts still appear when I hover the items in my inventory post-cache-clear.
hello there, i get frequently bug messages. and Arkiventory is named in it. maybe cause, maybe symptom:
comment format feature gone! can not make it a spoiler here anymore

Is it a Vendor issue or an ArkInventory issue: Since patch 10.1 arrived my custom rules using vensell() and vendestroy() are not working anymore. When I open the inventory I get an error that says that the rule 1015 (sell) or 1016 (destroy) is damaged an will not be used until fixed, togehther with this lua error:
ArkInventory: FEHLER> ...rface/AddOns/ArkInventoryRules/ArkInventoryRules.lua:267: [string "return( vensell() )"]:1: attempt to call global 'vensell' (a nil value)
When I open the ArkInventory settings I get these 3 messages:
[19:35:48] ArkInventory: Successful rule registration from Vendor - rule function [vensell] is now active
[19:35:48] ArkInventory: Successful rule registration from Vendor - rule function [venscrap] is now active
[19:35:48] ArkInventory: Successful rule registration from Vendor - rule function [vendestroy] is now active
and after this message, the rules start to work again, until next reload or relog. After reload / relog the same issue starts again (error when opening bags, opening settings, updating rules with the exact same content, so that they are no longer signed as damaged, using ArkInventory as normal).
Any ideas?

For some reason, ArkInventory has stopped showing me the item count in the tooltip of all recipes. Instead, it shows the count of the actual crafted item, if it exists anywhere on my account.
Is that intended or a bug? I would really like to know the count of the recipes I have across several toons (for auctioning purposes or whatever) just like with every other item. Seeing the count of the crafted item is not helpful at all... :/
Addon version is 3.10.15, but not sure for how long the error exists.
Is there some option I cannot find or can you fix this, please? :)
What option can I use to access the "Primordial Stone" text ? It will also be in some items, "Crafting Agent", etc. The name() and tooltip() rule functions do no recognize these words. It is defined as a Gem, but I want them in a separate location in my bags.
