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 lodge a ticket at https://github.com/arkayenro/arkinventory/issues/new 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\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

Posted Oct 6, 2018I sometimes have this weird issue that I have to open my inventory twice for it to get sorted: the first time all items are displayed in a long list while seemingly nothing else happens, and after I've re-open it a 2nd time everything gets sorted with a ~ 0.5-1 sec delay.

Posted Sep 30, 2018you could just create a new profile and use that instead but that requires that you have not altered the default blueprint sections (style, layout, categoryset)
if you have altered anything in the [1000] Defaults options, and you no longer want to keep what you had setup there then just go into each config area (style, layout, categoryset) and open the [1000] entry and in the copy from option select *[9999] Default from the dropdown which will reset it back to system defaults - do that for all three and it will be back to how it came

Posted Sep 27, 2018I am noticing something similar to billi1995: An Arkinventory: restack on my bank puts gearsprings into the reagents bank instead of the Elementium Toolbox. On boot, I do get a couple of "backpack not recognized, requeueing" messages. my twitch client says this is up to date with 3.08.14
TIA

Posted Sep 23, 2018I downloaded the newest version of ArkInventory, and I'm kicking myself for it. My bank and bags are now linked and I can't find how to unlink them in the configure section. How do I unlink them? I love having filters in my bag but I prefer to have no filters in my bank. Previous version it was simple to find the option, but setting section is a hella different now and I can't find it anywhere - and guides I've found online only show the old settings so they're no help. Please help, I hope I'm just blind and don't see it, but it would be devastating if you got rid of that feature. I can't live without ArkInventory, it's a must add on

Posted Sep 23, 2018in the config under control, the three blueprint options for each location, make sure they are different between bank and bag if you want completely different settings, layouts, and categories to apply.

Posted Sep 22, 2018When BfA launched, my Arkinventory is working fine except it used to open the Guild Bank to the last tab viewed, even between logouts. Now it flashes on that tab and pops back to the first tab. How do I set it to the "old way"? Pretty inconvenient when you're alt-hopping to move mats.
Thanks again for your work! I've said that over the 12(?) years I've used it, but Arkinventory is one of my Must-Have addons or I can't play this game. =)

Posted Sep 18, 2018There seems to be a conflict with Auctionator, not sure who has to change something. I posted it to Auctionator's site as well.

Posted Sep 12, 2018Just a small question. I equipped an inscription bag in my bank but only a few inscription mats are put in there. And if I put them in manually the blizzard cleaning up option just pulls them out of it and places them in my regular bags...
why is this happening and how do I stop it?

Posted Sep 6, 2018i've always loved this addon so when i started playing again i re-downloaded this as well.
something is a bit off though i've noticed that it takes 2-5 sec to load items and instant sorting is lagged by a couple of seconds.
don't recall it ever lagging more than 1/2 a second. if that isn't normal it could be the bug i've been having on rare occasions while accessing inventory something else gets triggered. 1st time i noticed this i was in class hall planning to sell trash and instantly ported to hillsbrad as a NE demon hunter i've never been there. only thing i have that might have ported me there was a engineering toy in collections i think wormhole generator maybe. 2nd time i was in stormwind bank and my warglaves ui opened up without ever opening character window.

Posted Sep 6, 2018Hi Arkayenro,
I m getting an error message regarding a rule that i ve set when i login (didn't had it last week).
The rule that i ve set is for sorting items that belong to any of my current sets on all my characters.
My rule is: outfit( "impie", "givre", "sang", "vindicte", "sacré", "protection" )
And here is the error message:
In english the orange portion of the text says "WARNING>rule 1001 is tagged as damaged and won't be used anymore until being repaired".
I don't get where this error comes from. I ve typed my rule the exact same way than in the RuleFunction_Outfit guide and it worked well during previous weeks. If i look at the error message it says that it's looking for a number instead of a string but ain't i supposed to use the name of the outfit as set in my equipment manager?
Best regards.

Posted Sep 6, 2018in the blizzard equipment manager do you have a set that has no name?
the code is trying to insert the set name into the end of the table but its possibly empty (although it would always be a string so not exactly sure why its having an issue unless blizzard did something funky to their code)
any outfit based rule you create should barf in exactly the same way
i'll try changing the code from blizzards tinsert function to the base table.insert from Lua and see if that helps
there will be an r780-alpha version you can try to see if that fixes it or not

Posted Sep 7, 2018In reply to Arkayenro:
All my sets are named. I just download the r781-alpha version and the issue is still the same unfortunately. As said before this is kind of weird as far as i didn't had this issue last week.
Also i just noticed another warning message regarding my bags (for info i have 2 "Silkweave Satchel" and 2 "Deep Sea Bag").

Posted Sep 8, 2018unknown bag type should be temporary, the message should stop after the game has cached the bag type
if you change your rule to just outfit( "impie", "protection" ) does it still have an issue? ie try taking out the set names one at a time and see if it ends up working or not
