Decor Vendor Changelog

Version 2.00

Main UI Redesign

• Reworked the main Decor Vendor window into a section-based Home dashboard.
• Removed the old bottom tab navigation from the visible UI.
• Added large section cards for:
  • Vendors
  • Professions
  • Quests
  • Achievements
  • Boss Drops
  • Gallery Browser
• Added a Home button to return to the section menu at any time.
• Added a small bottom tip reminding users that Home returns to the section menu.
• Improved the main frame flow so selecting a section opens the original vendor/profession/quest/achievement/drop browser views.

Welcome Panel Removed

• Removed the old one-time Welcome Panel.
• The new Home dashboard now acts as the main landing page for Decor Vendor.
• Simplified the startup/opening experience by opening directly into the main section menu.

Gallery Browser Integration

• Updated the Gallery Browser card to open the Gallery directly from the new Home dashboard.
• Improved Gallery-to-Decor Vendor navigation so returning from the Gallery opens the main Decor Vendor Home dashboard correctly.
• Fixed an issue where opening Decor Vendor from the Gallery could show an empty main frame.
• Updated Gallery opening behavior so the main Decor Vendor frame hides when the Gallery is opened.
• Added/updated loading tips for the Gallery so users know the first load may take a moment.

Upcoming Patch Decor Updates

• Continued adding and cleaning up upcoming patch décor data.
• Added additional PTR/upcoming décor records as they become available.
• Continued reviewing Housing Catalog differences between live/PTR builds.
• Improved handling for décor that may exist in addon data before appearing in the in-game Housing Catalog.
• Added better tracking for upcoming or hidden décor using fields such as:
  • minInterface
  • unreleased
  • hideFromGallery
• Continued cleanup of shop, promo, other, and unreleased source categories for upcoming patch testing.

Data / Debug Cleanup

• Kept debug tools separated by addon module:
  • Decor Vendor debug tools remain in DecorVendor
  • shared data/catalog debug tools remain in DecorVendor_Data
  • Gallery debug and dump tools remain in DecorVendor_Gallery
• Improved workflow for checking ActiveItems against the current Housing Catalog.
• Improved handling for catalog records that may be hidden, removed, or disabled on PTR builds.
• Reduced unnecessary catalog status messages in chat for normal users.

Fixes

• Fixed Home dashboard navigation not finding the original section handlers.
• Fixed the Gallery card not hiding the main Decor Vendor frame.
• Fixed Decor Vendor returning from Gallery into an empty frame.
• Fixed bottom tab logic so the old tab buttons can still power section switching internally while remaining hidden from the UI.
• Improved Home/dashboard visibility so the old sidebar and content area do not bleed through behind the Home panel.
• Improved header button layout after removing the old Gallery header button.
• Improved tip text placement and readability in the main frame.

Notes

Version 2.00 is a major UI cleanup update. Decor Vendor now opens into a cleaner Home dashboard instead of relying on bottom tabs or a separate Welcome Panel.

Upcoming patch décor support is still being finalized as PTR data changes, especially for items that appear in datamined sources before they are fully available in the in-game Housing Catalog.
