##Plugins
These plugins allow clicking on the panel/plugin icon to open BankItems, giving a summarized view of inventory slots and money of each character on the same realm, and deleting data with the menu quickly.
- LDB plugin for BankItems: BankItems provides a LDB launcher if LibDataBroker-1.1 is detected to be loaded. (built-in)
##Commands
- /bi : open BankItems
- /bi all : open BankItems and all bags
- /bi allbank: open BankItems and all bank bags only
- /bi clear : clear currently selected player's info
- /bi clearall : clear all players' info
- /bi showbuttun : show the minimap button
- /bi hidebutton : hide the minimap button
- /bi open charname : open bank of charname on the same server
- /bi charname : open bank of charname on the same server
- /bi search itemname : search for items

- /bigb : open BankItems guild bank
- /bi clear : clear currently selected player's info
- /bigb clear : clear currently selected guild's info
Most options are found in the GUI options panel.
Not a bug
If you close your bank after retrieving/storing an item in it too quickly and the server hasn't updated your inventory, BankItems is unable to record the change to your bank when the item actually moves later. The WoW API does not give you any data about your bank once BANK_FRAME_CLOSED event has fired.
Tooltip information regarding items on the Auction House, Mailbox and Guild Bank(s) may be out of date and thus be inaccurate. They will only be updated on your next visit to the respective places.
##Credits
Original concept from Merphle
Maintained by JASlaughter, Galmok@Stormrage-EU, and Xinhuan@Blackrock/Barthilas/Frostmourne-US.

Posted Jun 17, 2023In reply to Centias: Thank you so much for maintaining this. BankItems is one of my favorite addons and it took me way too long to find your working version of it after coming back to the game.

it's so frustrating that the owner is active on the site but refuses to update this addon or mark you as a collaborator. You deserve official recognition for keeping this most useful addon alive. Seriously, thank you for everything you do.

Posted Feb 14, 2023@Centias I occasionally get an error in your version, line 3936 subroutine BankItems_SaveItems. It happens seemingly at random, about 1 in 6 times when I open my bank.
Middle line of the code:
if bankPlayer == selfPlayer then
BagContainerAr[bagNum]:Hide()
end
The variable bagNum occasionally has the value 13, which gives BagContainerAr[bagNum] a nil value.

Does this only solve issue in (fake) Classic-Wolk or/and RETAIL?

I get that error in BankItems retail. Only occasionally, when I visit the bank. By coincidence, it happened 5 minutes ago after not having happened for nearly a week. I have not noticed any pattern as to when it gets triggered.

Posted Jan 21, 2023This version does not work in WotLK. It seems the Retail version no longer works too.
This is THE BEST, or was, simple to use mod ever. At one time it even did your mail on every toon.
Blizz SHOULD have made this kind of Mod...in-house

Posted Dec 5, 2022The latest release on your GitHub page seems to have a flat zip file rather than containing the required "bankitems" directory that all the files reside in, making it impossible for WowUp to install it. Your initial release had the folder the way it needs to be, but the latest one does not.

Posted Dec 3, 2022Centias (unsure if you want bugs here or on Git - starting here)
Caged Pets in the guild bank used to show up as the actual pet, making it easy to keep the assortment banked but check AH prices on them by shift+clicking them to fill their name in the AH.
Now, since a recent update (before DF for sure, but after it was picked back up to make current), they all show as 'Pet Cages' in Bankitems, with the cage icon. Will fill fields as Pet Cage too. No longer the actual pet, but all represented as Pet Cage.
Haven't tried banking them on my character to see if same issue - but Guild Bank definitely suspect.
Thank you yet again for working on BI!

I'm probably more likely to see it on GitHub, but I try to check both occasionally.
I don't have very many pets in my guild bank so I never noticed the issue. I knew it was throwing errors about pets before, but once I got the errors to stop I didn't really notice there was anything wrong. I'll have to look into it again.

Posted Nov 17, 2022As a "it's something" measure, I created a GitHub repo for BankItems here :
https://github.com/Centias/BankItems
I'm trying to figure out how to set up a release so it can be downloaded with WowUp, but I'm not sure how that works.Can now be downloaded via WowUp.
