Wow! Thanks so much for the crazy fast reply!

The new rule type works great!

Sure, I just uploaded version 1.34 which adds the itemname() function. Enjoy!

First, thanks for making this mod! It's fantastic for playing the "Inventory Management" mini-game in ESO.

On to my request:

Is it possible to add a Rule Type that can return a true/false based on the specific name of an item?

Example: I funnel all of the Treasure Maps I get to one character for collecting, however, I sell all of the Cyrodiil Treasure Maps because I don't PVP on said character.

I'd like to be able to keep all the Cyrodiil Maps under one category & the rest of the Treasure Maps under another category for ease of retrieving them from the bank.

These are fantastic! Thank you!

A few of my favorites:

This one creates a category for each alphagear equipment set, I have it as my first rule so my gear sets never get mixed in with loot in the inventory list.
A simple one to filter out relatively valuable (and sellable) items:
Group Maelstrom weapons together:
This one isn't very custom, but crucial for me. Break out item sets into individual categories (except monster sets which have their own category and are grouped together):
Treasure Maps and Survey Maps:

Anyone care to share their most helpful custom rules?

Thanks, I do appreciate it!

Another thing then is, what if we had an API that would cover items that are noteworthy, that we wouldn't necessarily want to have marked for deconstruction/sale etc? I realise that may require maintenance, but even if it were outdated it could still cover a whole bunch of things? Kind of like a safety net for those unfamiliar with certain drops and their worth?

Since the ZOS API does not differentiate between a standard set and a trial set, there is no built-in method to do this in AC right now. I personally do it manually with set names (just the ones I care about), as you described. I will consider this for future inclusion, but I'm leery of adding things that require continual maintenance (as they add new sets to the game). Also, some of the trial sets are pretty awful, so I personally wouldn't use this rule! But your request is noted.

Hey! It's been a while!

I wanted to find out, is there an API we can utilise yet that'll expose Trial sets? I know you did Monster Sets when I mentioned it a long while ago, so kinda hoping something could be done for Trial sets? I vaguely remember mentioning something about this, not sure what the response was.

The issue is obviously things like The Wise Mage set, which in normal are only Blue sets, and due to my vast rules it's being marked for "Deconstruction", which you can imagine would be a bit insane considering how hard it is to get into trials nowadays.

The workaround for now would be to manually create rules that match the set, but was hoping to have something neater to work with to exclude from all my other rules.

Thank sin advance and keep well!

I know its referring mainly to Inventory Grid View tho, i tried with only IGV active and it didn't make this on /reloadui only while both Auto Category and IGV are active that i got this one, cant move or open inventory have to manually /logout cant acces esc too kinda a pain in the butt to loose /reloadui but i cant play with out both of your mod if you could look into this would be awesome:

worked fine for a bit then plop.

Thank you everything is working fine now! Awesome add-on BTW!!!

Just a quick suggestion guys, I think a lot of Auto Category users would enjoy this new addon that I found yesterday: http://www.esoui.com/downloads/fileinfo.php?id=2103

It makes the inventory UI window (and several other UI screens actually) much taller, so you can see way more of your inventory at once. It makes a great complement to AC.

Awesome! That was the problem. Just had to delete the saved variables file and do a reinstall and now all is working fine. Didn't realise how much better inventory is with Auto Category's categories until they weren't there. Thank you both for your help. Top job.

Good point, although I had GetSetTrackerState() in my rules and when i removed the function it did not cause a crash to the point of the addon not loading at all. Still, Barnbogle, if you used that rule, send me a PM, I will send you an alternate version of AC with that rule reinserted. That way you can remove the offending rule.
