ItemSync
--- A ItemSync update for wow client 4.1.0 is coming the next days! Please be patience! ---
What is ItemSync? ItemSync is an item collection and manipulation mod. ItemSync will gather items from many different sources. Many features are available to you such as a search feature for items that were gathered and even a favorites window to keep track of items you really would like to have. ItemSync also comes bundled with several other useful tools that will be described below.
ItemSync will always maintain an updated list of items and names. Its all automatic and you dont have to do a thing. Just let ItemSync work its magic.
What features do I get with ItemSync? There are tons of features are your disposal! ItemSync comes complete with the following abilities: -Filtering -Search -QuickBag (a portable inventory bag with easy to read item prices) -Favorites (a window to keep track of all those favorite items youve wanted) -ItemID (a window to allow you to manually input item ids for items you havent seen) -Optimizer (a feature that allows you to always keep a clean and efficient database.) -Validater (a feature that allows you to validate those invalid items in your database) -And so much more!!!!
ItemSync will gather items from almost every possible location. This includes locations such as the Auction House, Bank, Inventory, Inspect Window, Chat Window, and more.
ItemSync also stores the prices of items when you visit a Vendor. Not to mention it even grabs the items that the Vendor has to sell!!!
Favorites Window: A neat ability that is available to you when you use ItemSync. It allows you to store those items you come across and have always wanted. The Favorites window makes it easy for you to remember items. No more writing down items and then forgetting what they were called or what stats they had.
QuickBags: QuickBags is a portable inventory bag, which displays prices of items in a simple to read format. No more having to hover items in your bags to view what each item is worth. Selling items to a vendor has never been easier!
Search Window: ItemSync comes with a very power search capability. You can search by items by location, rarity, level, and even resistance.
ItemID: ItemID is a very nifty tool which allows you to manually input items by their item id to your database. This is a great way to add items you havent come across yet. Filtering: ItemSync can store items based upon your filtering settings. Want ItemSync to only collect blue items and above? Its easy with the Filter window. You can even purge the database by a specific rarity.
Fetch Links: Fetch Links is a very handy feature in ItemSync that allows you to quickly and easily add items to chat by using partial names. For example typing [*ore*] in the chat window would replace it with the actual link for [Copper Ore]. Fetch Links is a very powerful tool and has many applications.
Can I see prices of items in the tooltips?
YES! ItemSync has the ability to display both the Vendor Price and the Sell Price for an item within the tooltip. You can select which features you wish to view within the Options window.
Do I ever get disconnected linking an item? You shouldnt ever disconnect while linking an item from ItemSync. ItemSync has been programmed to prevent any such actions from occurring. If however in the event you do disconnect then you should take caution when linking that item in the future. The creator of ItemSync takes no responsibility for any disconnections that may occur while using ItemSync.
Can I see the items across servers? Yes, this option is available to you. It isnt recommended as item ids are different across servers. This means you will always have a constant list of invalid items if you merge them across servers. By default ItemSync separates item collection by server.
Can I convert my data from LootLink/KC_Items/ItemsMatrix?
NO! I repeat NO! This ability has been removed from any future version of ItemSync. This is just to time consuming. If other folks wish to make converters then they are allowed to. I will post links to them as they become available.
If you guys and gals could be so gracious as to spread your views and acknowledgement and acceptance of ItemSync to your friends and family. I would be truely in all your debts.
Also your votes would be truely kind and will repay me for all the work i've put into this mod.
Sincerely Yours, Derkyle

I was working on the updated version and had the core and some of the modules already done. I felt my efforts were best placed elsewhere since Blizzard balantly changes the API and coding structure to constantly hinder authors. Also, YES I do have a problem with Blizzard and they way they treat authors. All they do is steal code and implement it into their UI and if there is something they don't like or understand they enforce rules that cause several addons authors to leave the community.
So, next time think before you place such a stupid response.
In any case I will be working on smaller less sophisticated mods. I just don't have the time to work on huge projects like ItemSync. I'm sorry all :) Thanks to all the fans."
But you gotta do what you gotta do :(
Although I'm grateful for you response and I'm happy that your a fan of ItemSync. There are some things that I have to change if I want to continue playing this game. Sadly, one of them is how I code and what I code.
Ever since the sad day that the old ItemSync broke I've been waiting and hoping you'd update, and while I understand those reasons for not wanting to continue (Learning a new API once is a pain, learning a virtually new one every time blizzard gets a hair up their butt is unreasonable) I hate to see something so great die.

Again its quite time consuming and it's actually coming out really well. I'm also trying to change the way the search engine works for ItemSync. I want to make it smoother, quicker, and more precise. To that end I've had to make slight modifications to how things are stored. Nothing major but it will not be backwards compatible with older versions (including data mods for ItemSync).
One of the features I look forward to completing is the Favorites feature. I really do miss this part of the mod as I used it a lot.
Oh I'm adding certain graphical enhancements to the configuration panel. Like the ability to remove backgrounds, set backgrounds, set background colors, alpha/transparency levels, etc.. This should give users more flexibility to how they want ItemSync to show on their screens. The UI elements are still a work in progress though
