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

not sure about the twitch thing but the error will be fixed next release
In reply to Arkayenro:
Guild bank issue fixed ! Thanks.
Regarding the Twitch client the issue is still here.
I take another look and I see that the 2 archives seems to be the same, they all 2 have #80200 in the toc file.
For Classic the interface version must be ## Interface: 11302
If you upload the same file on both I think that since the 2 packages contains the exact same files then the Twitch client think it's the classic version that is installed on both classic & retail.
its impossible for mods to have two toc versions, and as arkinventory works on both it just gets the retail toc version (or it wouldnt load on retail).
twitch shouldnt care if you install a retail version into classic, lots of mods work in both.
maybe delete it completely from both via twitch, then cleanup any addons\arkinventory folders, then add them back in? worse case delete arkinventory and then install it manually?
In reply to Arkayenro:
If you look at Bartender for example ( https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/bartender4 ), on the right side of the page you have 2 different archive to download, one for classic and one for retail. Each of them have a different name (-classic for the classic version of bertender but each addons use it's own naming) but the only change is the #interface version in the .toc file (all other files are exactly the same).
So I think their is a way to upload 2 different archives to twitch and specify which one is for classic and which one for retail.
But yes I can install manually but the 80200 in classic is reported "overdue" (bad interface version, don't know the exact term in english client) since it don't have the 1.13.2 #interface tag (not a big deal either but it show that the classic version needs it's own .toc, even if it's the only difference)
theres an option for loading out of date mods - you just tick that box, even in classic, and it will load with a retail toc number

Same problem here. I had to manually copy the files from classic into my retail folder in order to get 3.09.03 installed, and the client still claims the version is for WoW 1.13.2. If I open ArkInventory info in the client, there is no 3.09 in the list of versions, latest is 3.08.29. This instantly changes if I pick my classic installation instead, and I'll get to download 3.09.03 for that one.

Not sure if is Ark or some other addon, but when im looking at crafting mats the tool tip will not show what is in my bank or on alts. Ideas?
are item counts enabled in the tooltip options for ark? do you get anything at all in there or just the normal item stuff?
In reply to Arkayenro:
I'm seeing this same issue, but only for items in the professions windows. If I mouse over items in my bags or in game links I see totals. Materials for recipes in the individual crafting windows show no item counts.
I do have item counts turned on in AI..
not sure, its working in the profession window for me. when i mouse over each of the "ingredients" i see item counts. do you have the latest version, and are you sure you have those items in a location that is being scanned/saved?
In reply to Arkayenro:
Popped in game to take a look. Right now I'm seeing this:
1) I'm running 3.09.03.
2) If I mouse over Wool Cloth in my bag, the tooltip shows me how much this char has in my bag and how much another character has
3) If I open the Tailoring windows and mouse over Wool Cloth in the Bolt of Woolen Cloth recipe, the tooltip says "Wool Cloth"
This is true with all addons disabled except ArkInventory
classic or retail? its working ok for me in retail but i didnt check classic (i dont have a character with a profession there) and blizzard have changed the way those ingredients call the tooltip a couple of times
i just went into classic and i get a warning about the SetRecipeReagentItem function not existing on the tooltip so it looks like blizzard have removed it for classic and item counts on those wont work any more.
ah, looks like they use a different API in classic, i'll update the code so its supported as well
In reply to Arkayenro:
I've just checked with bagnon enabled and profession window tooltip shows counter, so it would be great this to work with Ark
In reply to Arkayenro:
This is in Classic.. but it sounds like you figured that out already :)
Thanks for looking into this
In reply to Arkayenro:
All good now. Thank you!
In reply to Arkayenro:
Actually, looks like this is still (or again?) happening with Enchanting. I can see item counts for Cooking and Tailoring just fine.
I'm trying to create a bar for Classic Hunters which contains all the empty quiver slots and ammo. Here's what I want it to look like:
I can do this using the following rule:
Bag(2) or Type("Projectile")
However, this is not ideal because, since I use the same profile for all my alts, they would also see their Bag(2) being treated as a Quiver.
Leaving out Bag(2) from the rule, i get:
The debug entry for empty quiver slots is as follows:
If the rule syntax allowed Slot to be queried, I could write the following rule which would work for all classes:
type("projectile) or slot("ranged")
Any chance you could add this to the Rule syntax?
just assign the empty > quiver and system > projectile categories to that bar, you dont need rules for this
projectiles might be under consumable, cant remember
Is there a way to toggle between virtual bag and normal bag display?
I have some macros for using stuff placed in specific bag slots (eg bombs, potions, etc) that pretty much require me to know where those slots actually are in the UI.
Alternately, an 'arkinventory' macro command that would allow the equiv of
/use [mod:alt] 0 4 [mod:ctrl] 0 3 [mod:shift] 0 2 [] 0 1
would work.
