ArkInventory (for Retail, Classic, and Burning Crusade)
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 variant. 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 here.
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 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.
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 your download client 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, it is 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-30900.lua, or ArkInventory-20191228.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
See ReadMe.txt and VersionHistory.txt for further details
Almost everything is working in the Wrath beta for me. The only exception is rules for Equipment Manager sets do not appear to be working.
For example, I have a Equipment Manager set called "Prot"
I created a Rule in Ark with the following parameters:
Rule: 1002
Order: 100
Description: Tank Gear
Formula: outfit( "Prot" )
I have enabled the Rule and added it to Bar 15
With Edit Mode enabled, I can Right Click Bar 15, then mouse over Rule --> [1002] Tank Gear [15] --> Status shows Enabled.
The tooltip on the items show: Equipment Sets: Prot
The items resides in my default bag space, Bar 1.
Reporting in from the WOTLK beta that everything seems to work fine.
Will keep you updated if I run into any problems.
My search screen has a lot of weird stuff at the top when I try to search
Whenever I try to find something, it displays it like this:

Hi guys.
My issue s for the classic version TBC.
You can see from the below screenshot my bag interface display.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B7Pb2P2DPgTie6780xQ8fLrMUT_vUl_7/view?usp=sharing
From below screenshot you can see the sorting menu.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B7i1qLJpciDNgUGjMaD0U0Z1OnU88Oeh/view?usp=sharing
Although ı have selected "Item name" as the last of the sorting criteria.
It doesn't work properly.
On the left screen same fruit and waters split..
Is it a bug or normal?
I was looking to see if Ark already allows for this, but since greys will be transmoggable soon, is there a rule or filter to block auto-selling grey gear that you have not learned as transmog. I just wanted to jump ahead and get my vaults full.
Hey
Thanks for an awsome bag addon.
When i assign things like covernant anima to one bag it doesnt move the item for that bag it moves the backpack, bag slot to the bag im assigning it to.
It didnt do this before last update is this the way its surpose to work?
Is anyone getting a TSM conflict? My TSM profession window (which loads at login) glitches out and constantly flashes with ArkInventory enabled.
Is there a ruletype that can sort or filter by usable by class?
im using usable() or equip() but im not sure how to get it to filter by class
i have a bag that catches soulbound items, but i only want it show stuff my current class can USE, and have everything else going to my YEET bag, which catches sb stuff that is not usable. problem is, the usable bag is catching everything a toon can put on, so plate is getting cloth, and various weapons not suited to classes (agi daggers on druid for example).
i used to have rules_morerules but that broke a while ago so now im stuck. ty!
nothing for class wearability.
for the moment your best bet would be using the type and subtype functions, eg type(4) and subtype(4) will give you armor thats plate, type(2) and subtype(7,8) will give you one and two handed swords, that sort of thing. just use the debug values to work out what you need
Getting the following error usually when first entering combat. Only fires once when entering combat. It reliably fires in raid each time I engage with the boss. Any ideas for stopping it? Doesn't cause any issues using ArkInventory at all. Thankyou so much for the addon!
not a frame i touch so its probably taint from somewhere thats spread through the shared libraries
see https://github.com/arkayenro/arkinventory/wiki/Taint-and-ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED
In reply to Arkayenro:
ahhh okay I did think it couldn't be ArkInventory because of the frame it is. thankyou for the link!
Thank you for the updates, been a user of the addon for years.
Can I disable that new behavior of the bags rearranging immediately after removing/moving items? It helped me in the past to not do that, to know which items I just moved into another bag.
I have my window sorting set to "On Window Open" but the sort function seems to be running any time any item in my bags changes (equip gear, use a consumable, etc). This seems like a recent change because I don't remember it doing that the last time I played about a week ago.
In reply to chodyo:
I also tried: change it to manual, /reload, move item from one category to another and it still instantly sorts the item back into the category.
In reply to chodyo:
Had the same problem multiple times. Always seems to be connected to Items.
First one was caged pets. Got rid of them
Second item was waiting for server response after 9.2 update. Still dont know what it really was.
Now its m+ keystones. If it was a Tazavesh keystone i would delete it but so...
If i transfer the specific items to my bank or inventory and manualy refresh the unwanted autosorting goes to bank or vice versa.
In reply to Supersoft16:
Hmm, strange. I haven't had that exact problem - what I'm seeing is that the sorting method runs on *everything*.
In reply to chodyo:
Just had to perform item recovery :/ somehow my tier set pants had gotten swapped out for a grey ilvl 100 piece - probably got under my mouse due to an unexpected sort, equipped without noticing, then my auto sell rule swept up the pants before I noticed. Obviously there's a lot I can do to prevent this from happening but the new behavior is less than ideal.
In reply to chodyo:
Having same issue as you. Bags are resorting when I sell stuff to vendor after clicking each item.
