You need to be using version 3.09.00 or higher if you want it to work in Classic
Legion changes are here https://github.com/arkayenro/arkinventory/wiki/LegionChanges (please read them first)

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 usually fine. If I need more I'll ask you for it.
AI'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".
AI 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
See ReadMe.txt and VersionHistory.txt for further details
Beta Versions:
ensure you make a backup copy of your saved variables file before installing a beta version - you normally cannot revert back to the release version without that backup. your saved variable file is normally located in World of Warcraft\_client_\WTF\Account\yourwowaccountname\SavedVariables\ArkInventory.lua
if you have the curse client set to download beta versions then it is your responsibility to ensure you have adequate backups of your saved variables file - do not complain if you lose them or they get screwed up because you installed a beta version, its what beta versions tend to do.
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 AI or the date is a good idea), eg ArkInventory-3-01-09.lua, or ArkInventory-2013-12-28.lua
Would it be possible to add the bank/alt counts to the component tooltips in the profession window for classic?
its been fixed in r870-alpha version (available on the files tab) or you can wait for the next release
I have exported my design to a text file and imported it to my wifes computer. It did not change anyting.
This is the export text I get:

Amazing addon!
one request feature - is this possible to remove character name from tooltips and main title of inventory?
or may be just rename it?
Hey, thank you for such an amazing addon!
Could you add masque support to make it much more pretty?
i tried that once before, didnt really work due to the way i build the frames and all the options there are
In reply to Arkayenro:
Thanks for telling me, I really appreciate it. Would you like to take a look of bagnon I used before I found ArkInventory, thougn I know the request is weird ...
nevermind
Hi, This a must have addon for me. It is soo good.
I made a some configurations and made some custom sorting for myself.
I wanted to copy the settings to my wifes computer so she can use them too.
I copied the arkinventory files in \WTF\Account\Accountname\SavedVariables
to her
\WTF\Account\Accountname\SavedVariables folder.
It worked but it also got the inventory data from my account in the tooltips.
How can i go around this?
you can export the design, it will generate a very long chunk of encoded text, import that on the other machine
not sure if sort methods are included, but theyre not exactly complex, or hard to recreate
In reply to Arkayenro:
Thanks so much.
Since 8.2.5 AI is not able to recognize battle pets anymore. It displays a mainly yellow "W" instead of the real icon and thinks that the item type is unknown.
the wow icon means its not cached, that can happen with pets but it typically resolves itself after a while.
today this error

been getting this error lately after changing zones in Retail, pops up in my bug sack and chat window.

EDIT i see this error is already listed in the issues tab.

In Classic, when I open my bank any additional bank bags also open in the default interface. I can't figure out if there's an option to stop this or if it's a bug.
I can get rid of the bag (usually) by hitting escape and then opening my bags again while the bank is still open. Once I had the bag stick open and would not go away even through /reload
Thanks!
Edit: I didn't want to open a ticket in case this isn't a bug but user error
if youre running 3.09.02 then open a ticket, thats way too weird to be user error, if not then please upgrade to that and see if it still happens
In reply to Arkayenro:
After doing some more testing, it was CTMod trying to do some bag management. Once I narrowed it down to that, I noticed the big red checkbox in CTMod to disable bag handling. Problem gone.
