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.

Is there any way to make it work with the guild bank in regards of taking everything out of a tab, or depositing the content of your bags into a tab?
There does not seem to be any addon capable of doing it at the moment, and it'd be a blast.

I have been lucky enough to find a macro that clears/fills your Tab/Bags.
go google "guild bank macro"
I love it.

Overall, this macro has been WAY helpful, but the "perfection already exists" error is confusing me.

I have 7 inscription bags in the bottom of my bank. I'll empty my mailbox into my backpack and regular bags on me and then go to the bank and use the /fill macro to empty my bags into the bank. Most of the glyphs will transfer, but there will always be a handful that remain scattered in my bags. And then when I hit the transfer macro again, I get the perfection error even though there will be room left in both the main bank area as well as the inscription bags.

Do you know what causes this, and is there a solution? Thanks.

I'm an inscription manufacturer. I need a way to transfer select glyphs to and from my inventory because I don't have enough room to store all of them when going to the AH. Is there a way to make custom groups (like all Death Knight, Warrior and Pally glyphs) so I can easily transfer them into and out of my inventory?

How can I change the sorting order? Because I want to have my gear specifically sorted first by slot and then by grade aka cloth, leather, mail, plate. But it never seems to quite do that.

So I am having troubles with this addon after the recent update, It no longer will stack my bags by clicking the Icon, I get the error message that I must be at my bank to use that function. The manual /sort command still works correctly however.

Liking this addon so far but I'm having a spot of trouble. I decided to level my banker so, I want to be able to dump 4 inscription bags worth of glyphs into guildbank tab 6.
I created a custom group (glyphs 1,2,3,4) but can't seem to get it to dump the contents. Is this possible?

<3 this addon. i did notice something unusual though. when i sort my Bank, it can never ever find perfection. it constantly switches stuff around if i keep trying to sort it. its not really an inconvenience though. just thought i would bring it up.

Love the addon.
But as of late when sorting /guild1 ,2,3,4,5
it has slowed down Considerably.

Also can we have the option to disable /guild sort.
Because if miss typed it starts organizing all the tabs at once...which kinda sucks if I don't catch it in time.

Again TYVM AMAZIN ADDON 5 stars

Is it just me or when sorting the guild you have to click on each tab for the sort to continue?

Is there a way to change how BankStack sorts your bags? Like, ordering.
