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
what specifically is the issue you have with it?
In reply to Arkayenro:
when I click on log or gold log, I get a white msg in the middle of the Arkinventory, so I'm not actually seeing the logs, thats basically the major part.
its working ok for me, what does the white msg in the middle say?
I cant open the config window anymore.

I already disabled all other addons to check if its really a problem caused by ArkInventory.
that should have been fixed in 3.09.40. its usually caused by having the mount location unmonitored
Are there any downloads with pre-configured Akrinventory.
i dont think so. there are export/import options for layouts but its not that great due to the complexity of having to merge the resulting import of profiles, layouts, custom categories and rules so its very basic at this time.
you may be able to ask someone to upload a sanitised copy of their saved variables file if you find a layout you like
Every time I try and use the search button I get this error popup in the text chat:
ArkInventory: WARNING> Please load and/or enable a search add-on first.
Needless to say I've got the search add-on module installed (and I've tried without it being installed). Any help/thoughts on what to do here?
maybe try a re-install? i would have expected other errors if the search module couldnt load
Hello, I'm getting a weird issue where the bag is started sorting ( putting items in their category ) instantly, even though I have the sorting method set to "On Window Open".
Did I miss something? I'd like the items to remain in their spot until I manually refresh / re-open the bags.
Tried the current alpha version, same there. Must be a setting somewhere.
This came some time ago, with an update. I was hoping it would get fixed, but it's been a while, and I'd like it to behave as it used to.
*UPDATE*: I was able to resolve this by adding a new Sorting Method. Details below:
Previously I removed all except my default custom method. So there was only 1 sorting method in the list.
I went ahead and added a new method named "Default", copied the settings from Bag / Slot.
And that worked, the sorting is reverted back to only happen when I open the bags.
Started a new DK and have been constantly getting this error:

He is presently in Outlands - level 60 - and is a miner/blacksmith.
Is there something I need to be doing at my end?
Thank you for great addon :-)
could you try the latest alpha, i think its fixed in that
In reply to Arkayenro:
Thank you - works a charm so far
