GuildBankLogger (MoP Classic) – User Guide (V2.0) 

Welcome to GuildBankLogger, a reliable tool to help your WoW guild track all guild bank activity for gold and items, with easy copy-paste export for spreadsheets!

For all the people who originally downloaded please see this updated version . If you need to save a copy of your previous log then head to the "Important Notes" section below and check the last bullet point :)

Features

• Logs ALL deposits and withdrawals (gold & items) in your guild bank, across all tabs and the money log.
• Full history export – copy-paste into Excel or Google Sheets.
• Smart deduplication – never miss a transaction, even with repeated identical actions.
• No duplicates – only new entries are ever added after the first scan.
• Warns of log rollover – if too many actions happen between scans, you’ll be notified to prevent lost records.

Installation

1. Copy the files:
   
   • Place GuildBankLogger.lua and GuildBankLogger.toc in your Interface/AddOns/GuildBankLogger folder.
2. Enable the addon:
   
   • At character select, make sure GuildBankLogger is checked in AddOns.

Usage

1. Scanning Guild Bank Logs

GuildBankLogger works per-tab and with the money log.

• Open the Guild Bank in-game.
• Select the tab you wish to scan or switch to the money log.
• Type:

  /gbl scan

• The addon will check for new entries, append them to its history, and tell you how many were added or skipped.
• Repeat for every tab and the money log you want to record.

Tip: Scan each tab and the money log after major guild bank activity to keep your records complete.

2. Exporting Data

Export all recorded transactions (for Excel/Sheets):

• Type:

  /gbl export

• A window will appear with all your guild bank history in tab-separated format.
• Use Ctrl+A to select all, Ctrl+C to copy, and then Ctrl+V into Excel or your spreadsheet tool.

Columns:

Player    Type    Gold_Dep_G  Gold_Dep_S  Gold_Dep_C  Gold_Wit_G  Gold_Wit_S  Gold_Wit_C  Item    Count   Index   Tab

3. Commands

How Logging & Deduplication Work

• First scan: All visible logs are recorded.
• Next scans: Only new entries since your last scan are appended.
• Repeat actions: Even if a player deposits or withdraws the same item/gold repeatedly, every unique action is logged.
• Smart marker system: Ensures no entries are missed or duplicated, even with WoW’s rolling log window.

Important Notes

• Scan each tab and the money log individually!
  WoW only shows logs for the currently selected tab/log.
• Export shows ALL history – you never lose data.
• If you see a warning about log rollover (Previous marker sequence not found...), it means too many actions happened between scans. Some older entries may not be logged, so scan more frequently if you need every entry.
• If you ever wish to delete the database/check the data that you have saved. Go to the _classic_/WTF/Account/65numbers545/savedvariables and look for GuildBankLogger.lua. You can see the full string of logs here . Delete this lua file and a new one will be created on your next scan:)

Troubleshooting

• Addon not loading?
  
  • Check that both .lua and .toc files are in the correct folder and enabled.
• Export window not appearing?
  
  • Make sure you’re not in combat and the addon is enabled.
• Duplicate/old entries appearing?
  
  • If you see a warning, too many actions may have happened since your last scan. Export regularly!
