Donations
I'm sure it comes as no surprise that addons like this and many other consume a large amount of time. I love the process involved in projects like these and my own intentions are usually what spawn the creation of some of my addon. That being said, the occasional donation always means a lot and is never turned down! Although I don't accept PayPal, if you would ever like to donate in-game gold you can send it to me @Vicster0. As always, thanks for all the support! Cheers!

Introduction
This is a somewhat simple addon that allows the player to customize their settings menu. With many addons comes many settings panels for the various addons in the in game menu. Options Restacker provides the player with the ability to do alphabetical or customize sorting of their settings list. With the customized list, the player can chose to "hide" some settings panels for addons they don't need access to on a regular basis in order to clear up the clutter. (For safety reasons, OptionsRestacker cannot currently be hidden.) The player can also clear all color formatting from the settings titles. If you are like me and you can't stand color in setting titles, you'll love this feature.

Player Features
  • Sort "settings" alphabetically!
  • Or, use the customization frame in the options panel for OptionsRestacker to customized the order of your settings menu and/or hide settings!
  • Clear color formatting from setting titles!

Usage
Use the in game menu options panel found under "settings."
The color option can be turned On/Off from the /restacker commands... I may add more of these in the future.

Notes/Issues
I have cleaned up the UI and most of the weird buggy issues. The controls menu is kinda weird if you try to customize it's order as it does it backwards. Not entirely sure about this, but you probably don't want to sort them anyway as it always opens the primary option.

Updates
Update 4 - [v0.1.5] - Patch
  • Updated to ESO UI API version 100004
Update 3 - [v0.1.4] - Patch
  • Addressed a language bug with headers that were saved in other languages and not cleaned up causing errors.
  • Added cleanup routine to remove other language headers that where saved but do not exist in current session.
Update 2 - [v0.1.3] - Patch
  • Addressed a bug that caused clients running in different languages to bug out as the addon was not localization aware. It should now sort and handle the menus regardless of what language they are in. The settings will however be associated to the language they were configured in if you happen to switch between languages.
  • Addressed a bug that was causing the 'Controls' menu items to be completely missing if the options to 'Ignore Default Settings Panels' was enabled.
Update 1 - [v0.1.2] - Patch
  • Complete overhaul of the UI, cleaning up the appearance and functionality.
  • Added informational tooltips to help guide you to your personalized settings menu.
  • Fixed a bug that was causing the menu to remain the same size as you removed controls. This is only compensated for now (still a small ammount of extra space) but it's a lot better.
  • Added a feature to allow the default menu items to remain unsorted and only sort addon settings.
  • Removed the option to close the frame inside of the options pane which would require a UI reload if done.
  • Probably a few other things I'm forgetting...

LOL - I know exactly what you mean.

I had to take special precaution with this addon specifically because of his addons... and any other that use two lines. :P

I'll look into this for you.

Is this possible or woud it need a rewrite of LibAddOn Menu or even an action from all addon authors to give ther addon a class to make all simmilar addons show up in the same sub-menu?

EDIT: thread is now here: http://www.esoui.com/forums/showthre...=8094#post8094
Would be awesome but it's just not feasible from the addon's perspective. AND unfortunately, since the addons don't have "categories" built-in there would be no way of automatically doing this.

I have explored, and may still explore, creating your own custom groups and adding them to the settings menu with the collected settings within but it's not necessarily straight forward unfortunately. We'll see...

Sorry guys, been so wrapped up with my other addon. I wrote the fixes in 0.1.4 a while ago and just never had the chance to upload.

Well, it's there now! Let me know if you run into any other issues!

No clue - Try deleting your saved variables file for Options Restacker and reloading. Not a whole lot of configuration to do so it should be terribly inconvenient. Feel free to PM me your current saved file as well if you'd like and I will take a look to see if it's something that can be patched.
I thought I'd tried deleting the saved variables already, but I think I pulled a stupid and tried it with the game running. I just cleared it again, and that seems to have fixed it.

I did notice that it was including addon's I had previously installed and cleared out (which I think is why I had 2 of the Options Restacker, as I'd removed it once early on). Is there a way to add a clear button, or a way to redetect what's present? Clearing the saved variables means I have to go through and reorganize everything again, and having it detect on it's own what is no longer there would be much better.

Thanks!
Well, oddly, it should already be doing that. I suppose I will have to check that out then! :P

Essentially, if it doesn't see the addon, it should just move on and any that it didn't see, it should get rid of. If I remember correctly... Been a while since I worked on this one.

Stay tuned and thanks for the comments!
Same problem. Got to delete the saved variable whenever I add a addon otherwise it won't detect it.
