PersonalShopper Changelog

[v0.6.0] (2026-04-13) - GoldFundMe Crowdfunding

New Features

• GoldFundMe tab — create community gold-goal campaigns visible server-wide to all Personal Shopper users; set a title, gold goal, and optional linked item; progress bar shows current savings + pledges vs. goal with donor count
• Donor List dialog — opens to the right of the main window and lists each backer's contribution with a mail-confirmed badge; owner gets a "Sync" button to push authoritative campaign data to all online peers; dialog size persists across redraws and /reload via framePositions.donorList SavedVariable (default 380 × 400)
• Automatic mail donation detection — when a campaign owner clicks "Take Money" on a GFM:<campaignId> mail the addon records the donation and updates the donor list instantly with no manual input
• "Donate via Mail" shortcut — non-owners can pre-fill the mail compose window (recipient, subject, optional gold amount) with one click from any campaign row or the Donor List dialog

Bug Fixes

• GFM sync not propagating pledges — WoW channel messages are capped at 255 bytes so pledges were always stripped; fixed by whispering a GFM_REQUEST back to the sender whenever an incoming campaign has a newer version, triggering a full GFM_RESPONSE whisper (no size limit) that includes all pledges
• Available orders leaking into GFM tab — stale availableOrdersScroll AceGUI widget reference was reused after switching away from the Available tab; fixed by niling both scroll refs on tab leave and adding a currentTab ~= "available" early-exit guard in RefreshOrderList
• Donor dialog double-release error — AceGUI Frame fires OnClose on Hide(), causing a double-release when the dialog was also explicitly released; fixed by niling the OnClose callback before every programmatic Release() call
• Donor dialog always centering on screen — AceGUI OnAcquire auto-shows the frame at CENTER and ApplyStatus re-centers whenever status.left/top are nil; fixed by hiding before snapping, positioning relative to the main window, then writing resolved pixel coords back into the AceGUI status table so ApplyStatus preserves the position
• GFM donation recipient double-realm — playerName received over a cross-realm channel already contained a -Realm suffix; the name is now stripped to base before appending the campaign's playerRealm

Changes

• DESIGN.md consolidated: full GoldFundMe section added; full Shopping List section added; four obsolete pre-implementation planning docs deleted (SHOPPING_LIST_FEATURE.md, SHOPPING_LIST_ARCHITECTURE.md, SHOPPING_LIST_SUMMARY.md, PHASE1_COMPLETE.md)
• Lint fixes in GUI/GoldFundMeTab.lua and Modules/MailHandler.lua

---

[v0.5.0] (2026-04-04) - Settings Panel & Auto-Cancel on Obtain

New Features

• Settings in ESC > Interface > AddOns — Personal Shopper options are now embedded in the Blizzard Interface Options panel with an expandable tree (General, Notifications, Custom Channel, Profiles, Debugging); the old floating AceConfigDialog window is gone
• Auto-cancel buy orders on obtain — the "Auto-Remove When Obtained" feature now also cancels active buy orders when your bags contain enough of the item; previously only Shopping List entries were removed
• Right-click minimap button toggles settings — right-clicking now opens or closes the options panel; previously it always opened

Changes

• "Auto-Remove When Obtained" tooltip updated to describe both Shopping List removal and buy order cancellation

---

[v0.4.1] (2026-04-04) - Shopping List Fixes & Inline Scan Options

Bug Fixes

• Shopping List last row clipped — final item in the list was always invisible, cut off by the scroll frame edge; fixed with a trailing spacer after the render loop
• Priority filter type mismatch — AceGUI dropdown returns string keys but priority is stored as a number; tonumber() applied to both sides in ShoppingList:GetAll
• AHScanner sort crash on nil priority — table.sort crashed when item.priority was nil; guarded with or 99 fallback
• nil priority on item add — PS_ShoppingListSettings.defaultPriority absent in old saves; triple fallback or 2 added in ShoppingList:Add
• Stale category filter hiding items — filter reset to ALL when saved category no longer exists in the list
• New item hidden by active filter — both filters reset to ALL on successful ShoppingList:Add
• Empty itemLink produces invisible row — itemLink = "" now treated same as nil
• Row crash silently suppressed — pcall errors now print to chat instead of only to debug log
• Shopping List title truncated — title label changed to full width so (N filtered) indicator is always visible

Changes

• Scan Options moved into AH Scan tab — removed the Shopping List group from the Settings/Options panel; scan settings (Scan Mode, Min Priority, Delay, Hide over budget, Skip fully stocked) now render inline in the AH Scan tab via AddScanOptionsPanel
• Clear Filters link added to Shopping List filter bar; shown in red when a filter is active
• /ps dumpsl diagnostic slash command: dumps all PS_ShoppingList entries to chat

[v0.4.0] (2026-04-03) - AH Scanner, Shopping List & Missing Recipe Tracker

New Features

• Shopping List (Core/ShoppingList.lua, GUI/ShoppingListTab.lua) � new "Shopping List" tab in the main window; add/edit/remove items with quantity, max price, priority (High/Medium/Low), category, and notes; color-coded priority rows; per-account persistence via PS_ShoppingList SavedVariable; BoP and quest item validation
• AH Scanner (Modules/AHScanner.lua, GUI/AHScannerFrame.lua) � one-click scan at the Auction House for every item on your shopping list; results frame shows current buyout, quantity available, and green/red budget indicators; configurable scan delay and skip-fully-stocked option; enabled/disabled automatically when AH opens/closes
• Missing Recipe Tracker � "Add Missing Recipes" button scans open profession windows and adds all missing tradeable recipe scrolls to the shopping list in one click
• Specialization filtering � recipes locked to a different sub-spec (Dragonscale/Elemental/Tribal Leatherworking, Gnomish/Goblin Engineering, Armorsmith/Weaponsmith Blacksmithing) are hidden when the player's spec doesn't match; detected via IsSpellKnown() when the tradeskill window opens
• addon.professionSpec table tracks the player's active sub-specialization per profession

Bug Fixes

• Crash on "Add to Shopping List" � attempt to compare table with number at ShoppingList.lua:83; caller was passing one table argument instead of a numeric itemId followed by an options table
• Lint errors in GUI/ShoppingListTab.lua � undefined WoW globals, protected AceGUI field access, IsSpellKnown wrong arg count
• Lint errors in Modules/AHScanner.lua � undefined GetNumAuctionItems and GetAuctionItemInfo
• Lint errors in GUI/AHScannerFrame.lua � undefined AH globals and protected AceGUI .frame field access

[v0.3.0] (2026-03-24) - Item Filters, Tooltips & History Filters

New Features

• Item type/subtype filters � filter the Available Orders list by item type and subtype to narrow results when browsing orders
• Item tooltips � hover any item name in Available Orders or History to see the full WoW item tooltip
• History filters � filter Order History by date range, item name, or fulfillment status

---

[v0.2.0] (2026-03-20) - Session 3 Bug Fixes

Bug Fixes

• Session 3 bug fixes and improvements � resolved multiple issues found during session 3 testing including order propagation, MailHandler syntax errors, mailbox tab key navigation, and RequestOrders throttle bypass

---

[v0.1.2] (2026-03-18) - BoP & Quest Item Blocking

New Features

• Block Bind on Pickup and quest item orders � orders for BoP or quest items are now rejected at creation time with an error message; prevents unfulfillable orders from being broadcast to the server

---

[v0.1.1] (2026-03-18) - Fulfillment Tracking Fix

Bug Fixes

• Correct fulfillment tracking � orders were not being marked fulfilled correctly after the mailbox attach sequence completed; now tracked reliably via order state
• Suppress SendChatMessage block error � Blizzard blocks SendChatMessage calls during certain protected frames; error is now caught and suppressed rather than surfacing to the user

---

[v0.1.0] (2026-03-18) - COD, DeltaSync & Mailbox Fulfillment

New Features

• Auto-attach items and COD on fulfill � ported TOGBank's greedy algorithm; MailHandler scans bags, calculates a fulfillment plan (full stacks largest-first, small-stack skip, split candidate fallback), then auto-attaches items and sets COD without manual interaction
• DeltaSyncChannel (DeltaSyncChannel.lua) � optional CHANNEL transport module; routes order broadcasts through a hidden addon-owned channel instead of GUILD/WHISPER for server-wide reach
• Order state tracking � orders now track PENDING, FULFILLED, and CANCELLED states persisted in SavedVariables; mailbox option added to open the mail tab directly from the fulfill dialog

Bug Fixes

• Classic Era COD API � SetSendMailCOD() does not exist in Classic Era 1.15; replaced with direct frame manipulation (SendMailCODButton:Click() + MoneyInputFrame_SetCopper)
• Uncheck send-money button before COD � previous Click() approach could leave both radio buttons active; now calls SetChecked(false) on SendMailMoneyButton before activating COD
• COD nil guard, recipient realm dedup, 7-day order TTL � guards against nil COD amount; deduplicates realm suffix on recipient name; orders older than 7 days are pruned automatically
• Available orders overlap and history stats layout � fixed row overlap in the Available Orders list and misaligned stat labels in the Order History statistics panel
• SendCommMessage channel index � must pass an integer channel index for CHANNEL distribution; was incorrectly passing a string channel name
• AceComm-3.0 registration � RegisterComm/SendCommMessage must be called on the host addon's mixin, not the standalone library; fixed by using addon:RegisterComm()
• DeltaSync %z gsub pattern � Lua 5.1 treats a literal \0 as end-of-string inside character classes; replaced with %z to fix "malformed pattern (missing ']')" on every CHAT_MSG_CHANNEL event
• DeltaSync debug buffer unification � lib.debugMessageBuffer and addon.debugMessageBuffer were separate tables; RedrawDebugMessages wiped lib messages on tab switch; unified to a single shared reference
• DeltaSync.debugEnabled live sync � /ps debug now also sets DeltaSync.debugEnabled so COMMS.RECEIVE logs appear immediately without /reload

---

[v0.0.3-alpha] (2026-01-21) - Embedded Libraries

Internal

• Embed external libraries � LibDataBroker-1.1 and LibDBIcon-1.0 moved into Libs/ folder and loaded directly; removed from .pkgmeta externals
• Switch externals to GitHub � .pkgmeta external references updated from WoWAce SVN to GitHub repository URLs

---

[v0.0.2-alpha] (2026-01-21) - TOC & MainFrame Fixes

Bug Fixes

• TOC version bump and MainFrame bug fixes � corrected interface version in PersonalShopper.toc; fixed several nil-error crashes in the main window on first open

---

[v0.0.1-alpha] (2026-01-16) - Initial Alpha Release

New Features

• Core addon framework � AceAddon/AceDB/AceGUI skeleton; namespace initialization; multi-version TOC support; VersionCheck system; debug logging system
• BuyOrder data model � BuyOrder.lua defines the order schema (itemId, quantity, maxPrice, requester, status, timestamp)
• Communication system � AceComm-3.0 based message bus; guild and whisper distribution; server-wide hidden PersonalShopper channel for cross-guild reach; custom user-configurable announcement channel
• Mail system integration � MailHandler.lua detects inbox messages, parses order CODs, and surfaces fulfill prompts when the mailbox is open
• Main window GUI � tabbed AceGUI window (Available Orders, Order History, Mail); sortable orders list with search bar; order statistics panel
• Create Order dialog � item name auto-complete, quantity/max-price inputs, validation; popup positions to the left of the main window
• Minimap button & Titan Panel � LibDBIcon-1.0 minimap icon; LibDataBroker-1.1 data source for Titan Panel; single shared dataobj between both
• Options panel � AceConfig options: debug toggle, minimap show/hide, notifications, custom channel name, profile management
• Localization � enUS base locale loaded via Locale.xml; all user-facing strings keyed through L[...]

Bug Fixes

• Addon load failure � LibDataBroker-1.1 and LibDBIcon-1.0 were declared as .pkgmeta externals but not embedded; addon failed to load; resolved by embedding both libs
• LibDBIcon lib.xml � LibDBIcon-1.0.lua must be loaded directly; loading via lib.xml caused a nil error on init
• AddToBlizzardOptions deprecated � removed deprecated call from Options:Init(); options panel now opened via AceConfigDialog:Open()
• TitanPanel nil dataObj � MinimapButton and TitanPanel each created a separate LibDataBroker object; second creation returned nil; fixed by sharing one object
• RegisterComm method not found � RegisterComm must be called in Communication:Init(), not at file load time before the addon is initialized
• tabGroup nil on SelectTab � self.tabGroup must be assigned before calling SelectTab; moved assignment earlier in MainFrame:Open()
• Duplicate button code � duplicate widget block referenced undefined content variable; removed
• Keybindings firing in edit boxes � main window keybindings now check GetCurrentKeyBoardFocus() and no-op when an edit box is focused
• Window position not saving � switched to AceGUI SetStatusTable for automatic position/size persistence across sessions
• Window not centered on first open � when no saved position exists, main window now centers on screen instead of spawning at 0,0
• Custom channel auto-join timing � replaced C_Timer delay with PLAYER_ENTERING_WORLD event to ensure the channel exists before attempting to join
