ArkInventory
ArkInventory (for Retail, Classic, and Cataclysm)
The NoLib variant
it seems quite a few people are somehow getting the NoLib variant from their download client when they didn't specifically ask for it instead of the full variant and its causing issues as they don't have the required libraries installed separately. Please ensure you are downloading the full variant. if you see nolib in the filename then its the wrong variant, unless you are actually installing all of the required libraries separately as well. If you have to you can manually download the full variant from here.
Junk Sell getting blocked
While auto-destroy remains blocked, From 30960 onwards you can setup a Key Binding to manually sell and destroy your items. Note that blizzard require one keypress per deletion, so if you have multiple items that need to be deleted you will need to press the Key Binding multiple times. A message will be output if you have remaining items that can still be deleted.
Alpha / Beta Versions: Ensure you make a backup copy of your saved variables file
Sometimes you cannot revert back to a previous version without a backup so before installing any alpha/beta version please make sure you have made a backup of your saved variable file
Your saved variable file is normally located in ...\World of Warcraft\_client_\WTF\Account\yourwowaccountname\SavedVariables\ArkInventory.lua
If you have your download client set to automatically download alpha/beta versions then it is your responsibility to ensure you have adequate backups of your saved variables file - do not complain if you lose your configuration or it gets screwed up because of an alpha/beta version, it is always a possibility so you need to be prepared.
A simple way to back it up is to just do a copy and paste then rename the new file (using the version number of ArkInventory or the date is a good idea), eg ArkInventory-30900.lua, or ArkInventory-20191228.lua

If you are having an issue then the first step is to disable all other mods and just test ArkInventory by itself
If the issue is still there then please check for an existing issue and lodge a new ticket if required.
If the issue is gone then re-enable your other mods one by one until the issue comes back, then report that to me as well as the other mods author
When posting a comment about an error please do not include the list of addons or really long traces, just the actual error message is fine. If I need more I'll ask you for it.
ArkInventory's display windows are built from "virtual bars", you assign categories to bars so that items in that category are displayed on the specific bars you want. There is no limit to the number of bars you can have inside a window but obviously you only have so much screen real estate before it becomes "too many".
ArkInventory uses several methods to assign a default category to an item such as what professions you have, tooltip scanning, basic type/subtype and PeriodicTable. You then assign those categories to a virtual bar.
You can also over-ride the default category by creating a rule that matches either a single or multiple items.
Overview:
- user configurable window width and height
- separate keybindings for each location for easy viewing
- assign items to a category of your choice (overrides the default assignment)
- assign categories to the bar of your choice
- unlimited number of bars (there are practical limits though before your screen becomes full)
- sort each bar differently if required
- user configurable bars per row
Key Bindings:
Press ESCAPE to bring up the blizzard menu
click on Key Bindings
scroll down to ArkInventory
bind the keys you want to use
See ReadMe.txt and VersionHistory.txt for further details
you should leave the max sell limit ticked so that in case something weird happens you can always get them all back as it only sells 12 at a time

I have half this problem. Nothing is being sold, but stuff I pick up or unequip isn't showing until I reload UI...
I'm unable to see my keystone in my inventory, searching shows it's not in my bags. When I turn off the addon, my keystone is indeed in my inventory.
In reply to Forestspirit13:
Can confirm this is happening to me as well. Also noticed some really weird stuff when I would sell things with things still appearing in my inventory, swapping icons, etc.
keystones are fixed in alpha 5
I have the same issues.
Here is a screenshot of when looting items they become invisible in the window.

i needed the categories. i wanted to check if its default category was Unknown or something else.
im pretty sure the issue is a combination of no longer caching the unknown category, and the new object caching, but i need some people to test alpha 3 (which has a lot of debug output that cannot be disabled)
In reply to Arkayenro:
Yeah sorry, I wanted to reply and I pressed Quote instead.
But I've reverted to the previous version now and it's fine.
Did you need more information about the problems?
In reply to mintik:
I am having the sam issue with new items only appearing as a glowing square, no item icon. I turned off all addons and it seems to be Details and Recount meters that cause the problem. When they are both off it doesn't happen.
There are a ton of issue son the last release... items don't even load properly on the inventory anymore, it displays a glowing empty frame instead of the item icon, and if you move something into the 'empty' slot where the new item is, it doesn't change the icons, current slow remains with a empty icon while previous slot remains with previous item icon, even though there is a different item there.
Also, when you sell something on a vendor with another addon, I used scrap for years without issue, it doesn't remove the item from the bag.
To solve both issues I need to reload my entire interface, Sir, I'm afraid this is extremely frustrating, please, either revert to the previous version until you're able to fix, or work on a solution as soon as possible.
Thank you
you think its frustrating. you do know that you can roll back to any version you like at any time?
if you looked at the issues page youd notice there are a lot of them. theres also several alpha version, so what exactly do you think ive been doing???
A couple issues with the last update. First, items I've assigned custom settings to are randomly resetting to their default. This happens when I've first logged into the game. Second, when I switch out gear, an item I've put on shows that it's still in my bags, and the other item doesn't show at all in my bags. An example is putting my 1h mace on and taking off my fishing pole. The mace is on my character, but still shows in my bags and the fishing pole is nowhere. A reload is required to fix. Love the addon, would be lost without it!
when you enter the game for the first time can you open the bag and turn on edit mode, then click on one of the items that should be in your custom category and let me know what categories does it have as assigned and default? then do a reload and let me know what the two categories are after that.
In reply to Arkayenro:
One thing that I saw happen while playing: I received "Letter From Shattrath" in the mail for a quest. It's default setting is System>(0403) Bound. I changed it to System>(0411) Quest and it moved to the appropriate place. Sold at a vendor, went to the bank, and it had reverted to System>(0403) Bound. Once I switched it again it seems to be keeping the setting I want. I'll watch for what comes up when I log on tomorrow or even later.
The last update kills "ArkInventoryRules_MoreRules".

"ArkInventoryRules_MoreRules" uses this "ObjectInfoArray" multiple times
info = ArkInventory.ObjectInfoArray( ArkInventoryRules.Object.h )
Has the "ArkInventory.ObjectInfoArray" been changed?
yes, that got changed. they shouldnt need to call it. they can just use ArkInventoryRules.Object.info instead as its already filled with that data
