Cancelator is a Mass auction cancel utility to cancel autions with set filters.

Description

Cancelator

UPDATE: October 16, 2010: Cancelator is no longer automated. A hardware event IS required for each cancellation. The filters still function the same way they did before, except now the button you'd press once before to trigger the cancellation of all auctions, has to be hit for each auction you wish to cancel. The filters will allow you to go "click happy" on the button to cancel the auctions one by one that fit the specified filter.

Cancelator is a utility to help mass cancel auctions. Provides options to allow users to cancel all of their auctions, or filter canceling by auction item name, duration, or price.

Cancelator provides an easy to use side panel style frame on the Auction's Frame that allows the user to define certain filter options and cancel those auctions. Can also mass cancel all auctions!

Features

  • Cancel All - Will cancel all auctions, regardless of other settings. This will remove any and all auctions the user still has. (Overrides other filters)
  • Cancel No Bids - Will cancel all auctions that do not have a high bidder (works with other filters)
  • Cancel Duration - Will cancel auctions at a set duration (short, medium, long, very long - works with other filters)
  • Cancel Specific Item - Will cancel a given item (will work with other filters)

Any one or combination of the last 3 filters can be used. The addon is designed to to tested your current setup with a hierarchy flag based algorithm to work easily with any combination of flags set!

Compatibility

  • Works with normal Auction House
  • Works with Auctioneer and Auctioneer Advanced. Does not interfere with EasyCancel module, or any other module of auctioneer
  • Works with Auctionator
  • Works with Quick Auctions 3

Other Notes

  1. The addon does NOT load when the game starts up, but when the Auction House is open for the first time. Once open, you will see a console message. Once the addon has been initialized once, it does not need to be initialized again until the user logs back in.
  2. To Load the addon, open up the AH and on your auctions tab, click "Show Cancelator" on the top right hand side of the window.
  3. The addon also has console based commands that are available once the Auction House is opened. Use "/cncl help" to see the list.

Future Ideas

  1. Save current profiles of filter layouts
  2. Implement some sort of "undercut auction cancel" options if feasible
  3. Find a way to automate... *cough* Blizzard hates us! *cough*
