BankItems v40300
3rd December 2011 (r169 on wowace)
For use with Live Servers v4.3.0.15050.
Void Storage and Bag Search Filtering will require more time to implement.
An addon that remembers the contents of your bank, bags, mail, equipped, currency, keyring and items on AH and display them anywhere in the world. Also able to remember/display the banks of any character on the same account on any server, as well as searching and exporting lists of bag/bank items out.
Type /bi or /bankitems to see what is currently in your bank. You must visit your bank once to initialize. Type /bigb or /bankitemsgb to see what is currently in your bank. You must visit your guildbank once to initialize.
- /bi clear : clear currently selected player's info
- /bigb clear : clear currently selected guild's info
Read below for other commands.
BankItems will also remember the contents of Guild Banks if you are able to view them. Use /bigb to see them. Note that Guild Banks are a shared repository and changes can occur to it by other members of your guild.
FuBar plugin for BankItems
http://www.wowace.com/projects/bank-items-fu/
These plugins allow clicking on the panel/plugin icon to open BankItems, giving a summarized view of inventory slots and money of each character on the same realm, and deleting data with the menu quickly.
Titan Panel plugin for BankItems
http://wowui.incgamers.com/?p=mod&m=3848
Note: I no longer support the Titan Panel plugin and its current author is not me.
LDB plugin for BankItems
BankItems provides a LDB launcher if LibDataBroker-1.1 is detected to be loaded.
Commands
- /bi : open BankItems
- /bi all : open BankItems and all bags
- /bi allbank: open BankItems and all bank bags only
- /bi clear : clear currently selected player's info
- /bi clearall : clear all players' info
- /bi showbuttun : show the minimap button
- /bi hidebutton : hide the minimap button
- /bi open charname : open bank of charname on the same server
- /bi charname : open bank of charname on the same server
- /bi search itemname : search for items
- /bis itemname : search for items
- /bigb : open BankItems guild bank
- /bigb clear : clear currently selected guild's info
Most options are found in the GUI options panel.
Not a bug
If you close your bank after retrieving/storing an item in it too quickly and the server hasn't updated your inventory, BankItems is unable to record the change to your bank when the item actually moves later. The WoW API does not give you any data about your bank once BANK_FRAME_CLOSED event has fired.
Tooltip information regarding items on the Auction House, Mailbox and Guild Bank(s) may be out of date and thus be inaccurate. They will only be updated on your next visit to the respective places.

Roweboy May 04, 2009 at 14:14 UTC - 0 likesI use LinkWrangler and BankItems. BI information does not show up with links using LW The LW author says it appears to be a issue with BI. Can you please investigate and fix this? I hate not being able to click on a link and determine if I have any of them.
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/link-wrangler-1-7.aspx
LW Author: It looks like BankItems was intended to work with LinkWrangler, but the code to hook them together doesn't work - it tries to find the LinkWrangler windows before they get created. It may be worth asking the BankItems author if he can fix it?
