BankStack

Table of Contents

BankStack is the leading cause of things moving in your bags and bank.

It:

sorts your inventory, bank, or guild bank
fills incomplete stacks in your bank with items from your inventory
compresses your bags by filling incomplete stacks within them
puts a chicken in every pot, and pot in every chicken

Quick command reference:

/bankstack : show configuration
/sort : rearrange your bags
/sort bank : rearrange your bank
/sort account : rearrange your warband bank
/sort guild : rearrange your guild bank
/sort {group} : rearrange whatever group of bags you choose
/stack : fills stacks in your bank from your bags
/stack bank bags : fills stacks in your bags from your bank
/stack {group1} {group2} : fills stacks in group2 from group1
/compress : merges stacks in your bags
/compress bank : merges stacks in your bank
/compress {group} : merges stacks in group
/fill : fill empty slots in your bank from your bags
/fill {group1} {group2} : fill empty slots in group2 from group1
/squash {group} : fill up the front of the group, without sorting anything
/shuffle {group} : completely randomly rearrange the contents of this group

In the /bankstack configuration you'll find sections for "ignore" and "groups". Here's a bit of elaboration on the syntax for those parts.

You need, regrettably, to hear about bag ids first. Each bag has a number which addons use to interact with it.

Unfortunately, what number maps to what bag varies depending on game type. Take a look at https://warcraft.wiki.gg/wiki/BagID

The guild bank is a whole different system, and BankStack has made up the following fake bag ids for it: 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58

To ignore slot 1 of bag 0, the first slot in your backpack, go to the "ignore" panel and put "0 1" into the textfield and click "okay".

Groups are similar. Let's say that you're a herbalist, and only want to do some things to your herb bags.

You could put this into the "groups" textbox: herbs 3,4 Or this: bankherbs 10,11

You now have two custom groups, herbs and bankherbs. Presumably you keep massive herb bags in slots 3 and 4, and are making lots of money from this because you have the two most expensive bank slots as well (10 and 11).

Having created these groups you could:

/stack herbs bankherbs

Which would fill up stacks in your bank herb bags from stacks in your personal herb bags.

Predefined groups are: bank, bags, account, guild, all, and a few more.

Click the "list" button in the groups config to see a full list.

Welp. I used this addon to sort my guild bank and it literally deleted an entire tab's worth of mats. I was using the newer version, which I see now is buggy, it crashed my game and when I logged back in about 2-300k of mats were gone from my bank. I've got a ticket open but good lord I will not be using this mod again.

In reply to EastwickGal:

If you use Twitch.app, scroll to BankStack on your list of installed addons, Click BankStack's name (takes you to Twitch info panel for the addon). Click 'Versions' and install v37 (which may have other issues, but choking on guild vault sorting is not one of them, apparently). Be sure to set your re-installed v37 to 'ignore' or, if you have Twitch set to auto-update, you'll just go right back to the newer, broken version.

Great addon. Most recent version causes a lot of lag though and causes me to dc occasionally. Confirmed that the lag is not due to conflict with another addon.

Yeah, every time I sort to bank, the screen freezes for 7-8 seconds. Hopefully this gets fixed because it's a good addon.

I did the same because the game kept crashing every time I used fill. This works great.

Duplicated the results reported on freshly built UI, no addons but this installed. Intermittent freezes (can't even invoke force-quit) up to 10 seconds. Items do get moved, but it is sluggish.

For those who have issues with the guild bank sort, add QueryGuildBankTab(tab) to the below function as highlighted and the guild bank sorting issues should go away.

function core.GetItemLink(bag, slot) if is_guild_bank_bag(bag) then local tab = bag - 50 <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>QueryGuildBankTab(tab)</strong></span> return GetGuildBankItemLink(tab, slot) else return GetContainerItemLink(bag, slot) end end

Are there any plans to update this? Since 7.3 dropped it constantly gets confused during a guild sort and aborts.

I was looking for an add-on that can sort individual guild bank tabs similarly to the way character banks can be sorted with Bagnon or the default UI. This one seems to do the trick but I haven't tried it yet.

However, my guess is that the problem you're experiencing with 7.3 is related to the way sound calls changed with this patch. The add-on author will need to comb through his code and change his sound call IDs to match the new system. Again, just a guess.

Go here to report your issue:

There is no PlaySound usage by BankStack.

I do intend to. Guild sorting is never my highest priority, because it's hard to test well, but I'll look at it.

I really wish they would just add a per tab base UI sort button like they've done with personal bags/bank.
