Profession AddOns
Due to the increasing data size and memory usage with each WoW expansion, the professions have been split into their own AddOns; you need only download the ones you'll be using. Each installed and enabled profession AddOn will load whenever it's first accessed by the ARL core.
The individual profession AddOns can be found here:
- Alchemy
- Blacksmithing
- Cooking
- Enchanting
- Engineering
- Inscription
- Jewelcrafting
- Leatherworking
- Mining
- Tailoring
Note that Ackis Recipe List will not work without the AddOn for the profession you are trying to scan. If you attempt to scan a profession that is not installed, you will be informed.

Posted Dec 22, 2014I did of course, they sit next to the main addon in the appropriate Interface/AddOns folder, but Ackis still refuses to recognize some plugins as being there, while perfectly noticing other ones and working flawlessly.
Not sure what possibly might cause that but here goes, it's a pity because I cae to rely so heavily on it to keep my tradeskills under check

Posted Dec 21, 2014I manually downloaded all the latest files on the 18th December, the day after everything was updated. Just found out today that the Smelting module I downloaded is "incompatible" because it is version 0 and I should have version 1. Did a quick double-check and sure enough the file that Curse links to for manual download is v6.0.2.1 instead of v6.0.3.1. So I then checked every ARL addon and found the same problem with the Jewelcrafting, Leatherworking, Smelting and Tailoring addons, in that a manual download results in getting an older version instead of the latest version!
So figured I'd post an FYI for the ARL team so that someone can correct the file downloads for the Jewelcrafting, Leatherworking, Smelting and Tailoring addons, and anyone else who has done a manual download since the 17th December can check to see if they have the correct versions of those 4 profession addons.

i just installed this addon along with the inscription module
for some reason the inscription module doesn't auto load even though it's selected (it's showing load on demand) and I have to do it manually, anyone know why?

Posted Nov 25, 2014I've used this addon forever...but with the new expac whenever I try to scan it says Ackis recepie list is either disabled or not installed. It is neither...and I'm running version 3.0.8, so I'm not sure what to do. :-(
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but still have the same issue.

Posted Nov 25, 2014About five months ago, the profession code was split off into separate AddOns. That error message is telling you, if you read it in its entirety, that you are missing the plugin AddOn for that specific profession.
To get a specific plugin, see the links in the description above.

Posted Nov 24, 2014I love the addon, for a collector like me it makes getting every last recipie that much easier. However I have found that in at least Inscritption there are a number of missing glyphs. I would love a feature to scan what i have and see if there are any that ackis doesn't know and be able to submit something to improve the addon. Keep up the great work.

Posted Nov 22, 2014I love this addon, it's immensely helpfull in locating unknown recipes and for planning my rep grinds on all my characters.
There is one small issue though, there is missing recipes. I'm unsure yet how many but I know of at least 2 enchant recipes missing from the scan listings. The rep recipes for August Celestials only list one recipe, but there are 3. Which leads me to believe there may also be other recipes from other proffs missing as well. I haven't yet researched what is/isn't missing yet, and as I don't have WoD yet I can't comment on those recipes.
Outside of that, I absolutely love this addon.

Posted Nov 18, 2014Hey!
First, thank you for this great Addon, I can´t imagine to play WoW without it.
And thats the reason why I´m here now, because its not working for some reason.
I use it for Inscription (with the main char), and when i use the "scan" Button, there just NOTHING happens.
I cant scan, theres no error message - just nothing.
Im pretty sure I got the latest Versions of the core and the single addons. Any suggestions why its not working?
Cause it seems to work fine for most of the people around ;)
Thanks

Posted Nov 30, 2014So, I still got that strange issue.
I tried to figure it out, but I´m not able to. What I did is deactivate every other addon, and just kept ARL and ARL-Inscription active - same shit, different day. No Error, nothing.
Maybe its an issue with the game itself? I dont want to reinstall WoW totally, but I don´t want to be without ARL as well.
I dont know what to do...
PS: I just realized, that its not only with Inscription, its the same with every other profession :(

Posted Dec 17, 2014So, finally I solved it.
I still don´t know why it caused trouble, but know it works.
What I did: Removed WoW completely, with throwing away all saved variables and all addons, everything (that hurts man).
Then reinstall the game and every addon one by one. And look: everything is fine in the end!
Now you see how much I care about ARL running properly :)

Posted Nov 17, 2014I have been looking for a reliable recipe finder add-on that will also show the locations on the map-minimap. I thought I found it in Ackis, but it is very buggy it seems. I am using an Alliance character with smelting and blacksmithing. My wife is using an Alliance character with skinning and leatherworking. When we filter the scan results it gives us all the Horde recipes even when we have the Horde not selected. Is there a way to have Ackis show only the faction that we belong to? It also seems as though the filtering does not filter properly in many other respects as well. This add-on was highly recommended on many sites and it seems odd that there would be so many problems with it, is it just user error or needing an update to the new WOW version? Thank you for your time.
