ArkInventory (for both Retail and Classic WoW)
Alpha / Beta Versions: Ensure you make a backup copy of your saved variables file
Sometimes you cannot revert back to a previous version without a backup so before installing any alpha/beta version please make sure you have made a backup of your saved variable file
Your saved variable file is normally located in ...\World of Warcraft\_client_\WTF\Account\yourwowaccountname\SavedVariables\ArkInventory.lua
If you have twitch set to automatically download alpha/beta versions then it is your responsibility to ensure you have adequate backups of your saved variables file - do not complain if you lose your configuration or it gets screwed up because of an alpha/beta version, its always a possibility so you need to be prepared.
A simple way to back it up 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-3-09-00.lua, or ArkInventory-2019-12-28.lua

If you are having an issue then the first step is to disable all other mods and just test ArkInventory by itself
If the issue is still there then please check for an existing issue and lodge a new ticket if required.
If the issue is gone then re-enable your other mods one by one until the issue comes back, then report that to me as well as the other mods author
When posting a comment about an error please do not include the list of addons or really long traces, just the actual error message is fine. If I need more I'll ask you for it.
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
Key Bindings:
Press ESCAPE to bring up the blizzard menu
click on Key Bindings
scroll down to ArkInventory
bind the keys you want to use

Hey, there seems to be a bug when creating a rule to pull corrupted items. I am using the formula itemstat("corruption"), this is pulling all items with the corruption stat, expect for items of ilvl 475, I have no other rules interfering with this, and have tried putting the rule order to 0, just in case a different formula was affecting it without my knowing.
Not sure what is causing the issue but thought I would give you a heads up.
corruption is not a stat, its bonus id based.
go to config > general > bonus ids and make sure corruption is enabled for searching
you should then be able to use tooltip("corrupt")
Hey, on auto-close I think there's a problem.
a default behavior is that when I have the autoclose options on, then I go to a merchant or mailbox as an example, then whenever I close the merchant, the bags shall automatically close, which indeed does happen.
however, if I already have my bags open by me, before opening the mail or vendor, then if I step away from that mail or vendor the bags shall remain open, because I opened them myself and they weren't automatically opened by the vendor.
so in a sense I am asking for the auto-close feature option to work only when the auto-open has been initiated, I think this is the exact behavior of default bags in wow, which makes sense, test it out.
After updating my addon in Classic, I'm getting the following on all my characters:
Error occured in: Global

I have the menu icons across the top of the bag screen, but can see nothing in my bags. It just says 'Loading' in the bottom left corner. When I click on any icon I get the error "Interface\AddOns\ArkInventory\ArkInventory.lua:8131: attempt to call global 'IsCorruptedItem' (a nil value)"
I have Twitch set to download release versions only. The most recent zip is 3.09.20
In reply to ShelaghG:
The same thing happens to me. Just updated to 3.09.20 also :(
fixed in 3.09.21
In reply to Arkayenro:
That was weird. Twitch was telling me I had 3.09.21 I checked Twitch again and it said that it was installed in both Classic and Retail, yet logging into Classic this morning, I still had the same problem. I logged out and checked both versions in Twitch yet again, but this time, when I switch to Classic addons it said there was an update for ArkInventory. Having updated, it's all working perfectly. Sorry for the confusion.
The "corrupted eye" seems to stay on the slot even tho I disenchantet the item. So the eye just floats above an empty bagspace.
/reload helped.
Additional real time scanning needed? :(
did clicking on the refresh button not fix it?
actually, nvm, bad coding. will be fixed next release
I'm having an issue where my shared realm alts don't keep track of how many items are in my guild's bank.
Example: Main is on Khadgar, which is where my guild is based, my alt is on Alleria in the same guild. My main has zero issues showing me how many items are in the guild bank but my alt on Alleria shows zero info.
I can't figure out if maybe I have a certain setting turned off somewhere? If someone could help me out in figuring out where to look that'd be great, it's a problem for me because my alt is my herbalist and I want to be able to easily see what herbs I should try to focus on to help my guild out.
make sure general > tooltips > realm only, isnt ticked or the item counts wont include data from other realms - or if you only want that realm then make sure connected realms is enabled to pick up the connected realms
In reply to Arkayenro:
Thanks!
You work fast! The implementation worked. But it takes up the same space as the itemlevel.
I have it filtered so I only see the itemlevel of my items above 445.
Corrupted items below 445 have the "corrupted eye" on them.
Corrupted items above 445 have their itemlevel displayed in the same space without the "corrupted eye".
Maybe you can work with that bug report.
its an overlay, not an icon, so it cant be moved. you may want to move the itemlevel to a different corner, or shrink the itemlevel text size so they dont overlap
working on changing it to an icon so you can move it around as well
In reply to Arkayenro:
Fixed it by moving the Ilvl-Text to the top-right instead of top-left where the eye is located. But a more customizable eye-icon would be nice. It would be awesome if there is an option to make it bigger and anchor it to the center. Much love to you Ark.
i tried to use the actual corruption icon but its too small and looks weird when you blow it up so i swapped it to an item icon that exists so it looks better.
center (and the other) anchor points were added in the latest alpha already - too many icons now so thought it would be better having more anchor options
In reply to Arkayenro:
Works like a charm! Thanks Champ.
One bug I experienced playing with the different options in the "Status Icons / Overlays" tab:
The "Quest" options don't work properly. There are two options. [Icon] and [Border]. [Icon] disables both ("!" & border). And [Border] doesn't do anything.
that because the quest bang is a combo texture of both the bang and the border. i'd have to create a new texture with just the bang to make it work properly
Is there an option to enable the "corrupted eye" on top of the items?
