Changelog

[0.11.2] — 2026-07-25

Fixed

• Copy Popup Nil Error — Moved SetupBackdrop and SetBackdropColors helper functions before CreateCopyPopup in BiS_Helper.lua to fix attempt to call a nil value error when clicking an item in Loot Browser or Item ID popup.

[0.11.1] — 2026-07-17

Fixed

• Taint errors in combat — Fixed attempt to perform arithmetic on a secret number value errors by untainting GetCombatRating() and container:GetWidth() variables properly, allowing safe stats checks during combat.
• Gem Parsing — Replaced removed C_Item.GetItemGem API calls with direct item link string parsing to restore gem detection in equipment.
• Memory Optimization — Optimized GET_ITEM_INFO_RECEIVED caching logic to drastically reduce memory garbage generation and micro-stutters during gameplay.

Changed

• BiS Gear & Stat Priority Data — Fully updated all 40 class specializations to the latest Midnight Season 1 data from Wowhead.
• Blizzard API Integration — Automated fetching and matching for missing item IDs to ensure correct item names.

Fixed

• Demonology Warlock Guide parsing — Resolved a bug where unclosed BBCode table tags in the author's bio caused parsing failures.
• Arms & Fury Warrior Guide parsing — Fixed issues with custom table column headers ("Item Slot", "Name") and added missing slot mappings ("helm", "mainhand") to ensure successful parsing.

Changed

• Interface version bumped to 120005 for WoW 12.0.5 compatibility
