Yes, hover over the entry in the list and near the bottom of the tooltip it tells you how to. :)
I feel silly for not seeing that, haha. Thank you very much for pointing that out!
If I ever want to show them again for some crazy reason, I assume hitting the "Reset" button will un-ignore them all? (Not that I'll ever drop Enchanting for Tailoring, but always better to know than not to know. :D )
No not the reset button, that's for filters ...All you have to do is either go into the interface options and you'll see "clear exclusion list" or show the excluded items in the list then do the button combo on that item and it removes that specific one from the ignore list.
This is really nice. I've loved ARL and this is just as easy to use. I found a couple of obvious mounts and pets that I should have already gotten and bumped up my lists a bit. thanks!
I am definitely no programmer by any means, but would it not make sense to use a setup similar to npcscan where you can go in and add ids manually. I think this might fix a lot of your problems, as well as make it where you didnt have to update the mod every week to missing pets or mounts. I'm not able to tell you exactly how to do this, it would just be nice and I think it would take off a load from your shoulders. I dont think it's possible to do this for pets/mounts that aren't data mined atm, but should work on current content available. Hope this helps, I'm looking forward to using this addon today.
Hi,
What is the advantage of using your addon vs. "Collect Me" or "Companions & Mounts" section of your char profile?
I tried out Collect Me, it was annoying to me dur to the random critter selection, tried it for a few days, but got rid of it, it did show a list, but Collectinator has a cleaner interface imo. and for calling critters, I use critter caller. =)
Would be nice if should more info or pre-requirements for quests to get that mount.
Hi!
I've installed this Addon 5 minutes ago (it has never been installed in my computer) and it fails constantly. I open Mount or Pet window, click on Scan and a lot of LUA errors appear. The addon window opens with a list of pets or mounts (depending) but every time I do "mouse over" over any item of the list, a new LUA error appears. Am I the only one? I'm using Spanish WoW, and maybe thats the cause, I don't know. If you can't reproduce the problem, ask me for the error details!
Thanks in advance!
The errors are probably about phrases not translated. That's because of the 335 phrases only 2 are translated in Spanish. If you want to translate them, let me know and I'll add you as a translator.
Hi! With latest update, the addon works perfectly :)
The update today almost totally wiped out the database of mounts and pets. Gonna try uninstalling and reinstalling.
Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't work. Tried the alt-shift-click for import and got two additional mounts to show up. Very long list of "Error: Mount (Pet) with ID XXXX not in database" shows up in chat.
That seems quite silly. Make sure you completely close wow when updating then log back in after you have updated. But yeah, that shouldn't happen.
A long awaited update to Collectinator has been released! Enjoy.
Please update this amazing mod for 4.3 and all the new pets/mounts!
working on it right now ;)

VVV What he said.
It's Tyrael's Charger and possibly the Sea Pony for me. Every time the mod is accessed by adding another pet or mount I get this same error.
