ArkInventory
ArkInventory (for Retail, Classic, and Wrath)
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

Hello
first of all thank you very much for your work and this great addon
but
the last update has deleted a lot of category assignments in the bank.
unfortunately this is not the first time after an update...
i don't know if this is a mistake or not, but it's very tedious to re-categorize the items every time
is there a way to restore the assignments without having to assign each item individually?
not while the tooltips decide to come back as null instead of ITEM NOT READY.
a fix/workaround will be added to the next release to handle this
note - it hasnt deleted anything, it just cannot always get the items soulbound status so cannot properly categorise them at this time. moving an item will typically rescan and if the tooltip is valid it will categorise properly
you can try the latest 3.09.24 alpha to see if it works
In reply to Arkayenro:
Thank you very much for your quick answer
I'll try the update.
Soulbound() checking broke in the banks. all my gear reports soulbound: 0 never
for some reason some of the tooltips were coming back as null, instead of as "ITEM NOT READY" so it was screwing up the soulbound status
should be fixed in the next release
Version 3.09.23-classic gives problems with my bank assigned categories. It won't let me assign new categories and says
the categories are *Locked* and have to change something in controls. But when I check the controls the lock function is not enabled.
I installed version 3.09.22 again and it's fine again.
thats a bit odd. **locked** means youre using one of the system/default profile / design / style which cannot be updated and you just need to pick or create another one of your own
I haven't found one yet but are there any website out there that post and share people's Arkinventory configs/profiles?
not that im aware of, but that doesnt mean one doesnt exist somewhere
is it possible to make a rule or a box that it groups corrupted items, and if so how?
theres an option to enable visibility of corrupted items, its with the bonus ids and suffixes. turn that on and you should be able to use tooltip( "corrupted" ) to get them.
So many times I get error to disable the addon when clicking toys, please fix that? thanks.
you havent been able to click on toys in arkinventory since they made them secure, which was well over a year ago, it spits out a warning message to drag the toy to the action bar instead?
what version do you have?
In reply to Arkayenro:
Latest release version, I click in the toy from the toy box panel, and I get this msg.
Arkinventory has been blocked from an action only available to the blizzard UI. you can disable this addon and reload the UI.
I got two options.
Disable or ignore.
I click ignore, try again, same msg, I reload ui, sometimes it works.
If I drag the toy to the auction bars, it will work.
its from another mod. disable all mods except arkinventory and do it again, it wont happen
then read this https://github.com/arkayenro/arkinventory/wiki/Taint-and-ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED to work out how to find the mod actually causing it
Hallo,
Thanks for the great work over the years on this! I'm having an issue:
WoW Clasic
ArkInventory 3.09.22
I just bought the 4th extra bank slot (the 25g one).
Icon area is still red. Bags dropped in this area do not grant extra bank space.
Disabling ArkInventory results in the bag being usable in the default bag interface. So the slot is actually purchased.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: Never mind. I'm apparently an idiot. The bag was somehow marked to not be displayed in Ark.. it never occurred to me to check that on a new profile. Stay healthy everyone.
good addon!
thanks for it but i need one feature
delete real hero name from item tooltips or invenroty header pls
or ability to rename to some fake name
why? and you can hide the title frame if you dont want it visible
I'm using this addon on several different wow accounts. I make a config to my liking on a main char, then copy it to the other accounts.
However, on one of the accounts, when I open a vendor window along with my bags and start selling stuff, the bags keep rearranging themselves after every sell. This makes it really hard to quick sell a lot of items because they keep moving around every time I right click on them. On none of the other accounts I'm having this issue. The expected behaviour is nothing gets rearranged until i close the bag window and reopen it again.
I'm on version 3.09.22 (bfa).
Any help is appreciated!
sounds like you have sorting set to instant on that character. so most likely its set to use a different profile
config > settings > design > design being used in profile > window > style > sorting > when
set it to manual, or on window open, whichever youre used to
