AnkhTimer does not provide it's own display, you will need a LDB-based display addon, such as Fortress, Carousel, StatBlockCore, Titan etc.

For those of you new to using LDB based plugins You can find a great description, and links to more information here:

#showtooltip Reincarnation

Write that as a macro and pull it onto your bar.
Keeps track of the cooldown and how many reagents you have left.

I downloaded this addon today yet it does not work... In fact it broke my Titanpanel. I logged into the game and Titan was gone, disabled this addon, and Titan came back... Don't know what else could be done.

This is an awesome LDB plugin, but I seem to either be experiencing a bug. Everything works fine with the addon except when I go to the regent vendor. Not only do I restock my Ankhs to the ammount I specified in the configuration, but it also auto buys 200 [Symbol of Kings]. Granted I am always willing to hook up my pally tank with these, but it is getting rather expensive. Any thoughts? BTW I have not modified any of the files in any way.

"Any chance of a feature to monitors if you have the Glyph that lets you not use Ankhs? "

My initial plan was to add a feature that detected if the Glyph of Renewed Life is present and then turned off auto-buy and also visual presentation of the number of Ankhs currently in your bags since its irrelevant.

I actually have code ready for this and its also tested it for a while but there are few issues with the use case.
I will try and give an example:
-A player having dual-spec, for instance restro and elemental
-One spec using Glyph of Renewed Life (elemental) and the other is not (restro)
-This would mean that in one spec you will auto-buy Ankhs and in the other not
-If you 99% of the time play as elemental (with Glyph) and quickly respec to help heal you might accidentally buy your self 10 Ankhs
-If you run both spec 50/50 I suspect that you in most cases like to buy Ankhs regardless of what spec you currently have to make sure you are always filled up

So, basically the idea is good but I cant find a use case that is logical.
Instead the player will have to manually set their preferences.
To promote this I have added a pop-up the first time you visit a vendor to remind you that auto-buy is turned on and that you can turn it off in the settings.

This sounds Cool.
Any chance of a feature to monitors if you have the Glyph that lets you not use Ankhs?

New beta release available.
Any feedback is welcome.

Since localization is now supported I am interested in getting in contact with persons who like to help translate to other languages.

The screenshots look interesting - any reason there's no file to download?
