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
In reply to Arkayenro:
Ta. Tried the alpha. An update was also pushed from Better Wardrobe. With those changes in place, getting about 80 fps with either/both ArkInventory and BetterWardrobe on. Turning both off and it's pretty much the same. I don't know why this is 20fps slower than it was last night - haven't made any other changes - but still, plays OK so *shrug*.
BTW Using the Arkinventory alpha I got lots of error messages when opening bags (or opening a bag slot in guild) eg
ArkInventory:TEMP.1 tooltip not ready:[ITEMNAME]
ArkInventory:TEMP.2 tooltip not ready:[SAMEITEMNAME]
or just lots of these after re-enabling:
ArkInventory:TEMP.1 tooltip not ready:[]
those arent error messages, they are debug output (its an alpha), im trying to find a problem that might be linked to the tooltip data not being ready
they should only trigger once or twice each session per uncached item and then stop
In reply to Arkayenro:
Ah OK, thanks. Yes, they aren't bothersome. As you say, they only occur once.
I've been using the addon for almost a month now, and it's AMAZING!
However, one issue I'm running in is that the addon seems to mess up with Battle Pets tooltips.
I use TSM to show values of battle pets. Here is a screenshot with ArkInventory disabled
here it is with ArkInvetory enabled
How can I show TSM portion with ArkInventory?
you cant, not unless TSM hook my custom tooltip as well.
your only other option is to disable the custom pet tooltip in the config so it uses the blizzard tooltip, which TSM hooks
In reply to Arkayenro:
That was it! Thanks a lot!!
I get this error a bit random, mostlt when I enter combat.

weird, mine doesnt seem to care if i open/close the bag changer window while in combat. was this in classic or retail, the ptr or beta?
was it any time in combat or when youre doing something specific? like targeting a spell?
In reply to Arkayenro:
It's in Classic.
I'm not 100% sure when the error is coming, it seems a bit random, but always in combat.
But after the error have been there, then I can't open my bags in combat until after I reload.
I will try and take a note of when it is and then return to you. :)
In reply to SubbyDK:
Just came when I missed a "Eviscerate"
**EDIT**
It have happend 4 more times this evening.
1 time when I body pulled and just when I got hit the error came.
2 times the error came when auto attacking.
1 time when I got hit by AoE.
Everytime the bags have been closed.
Hope this will help you. :)

hope fix this....tx
should be fixed in 3.09.34
Just FYI Coming up with a LUA error using 3.09.31 after the last Shadowlands beta update and thought I should report it. The addon is still usable AFAIK. Thanks for all that you do for the community!

looks like they removed a global, MAX_CONTAINER_ITEMS, which i used to prebuild the item slots. youd probably only notice an issue if you entered the game while in combat and tried to open your bags
it should be fine as i build them as needed as well but i'll see if theres a replacement to kill the error
should be fixed in the latest alpha (r1003-alpha)
