1.34 Changes:
  • Added itemname() to match items by name. Returns true if the item name contains any of the provided strings (case insensitive), e.g. itemname("Maelstrom", "Alkosh")

1.33 Changes:
  • Bumped API version for Murkmire.

1.32 Changes:
  • More huge performance improvements! Thanks again to Shadowfen who did all the work here. (Pre-compile rules as they are changed)
  • Replaced Set Tracker support function GetSetTrackerState() with IsTracked(). If you used the old function, you will need to update your rule (sorry). This was done to bring the usage inline with the way the other similar functions work. Usage, e.g.: IsTracked("Sell/Decon", "Collecting")

1.31 Changes:
  • Big performance increase (2x or better for me), thank you to Shadowfen for the code change suggestion!
  • Updated libraries

1.30 Changes:
  • Added French translation. Big thanks to Hasgaad!

1.29 Changes:
  • HOTFIX - resolve errors at merchant due to Wolfhunter API changes.

1.28 Changes:
  • Bumped API version for Wolfhunter.

1.27 Changes:
  • Bumped API version for Summerset.
  • Added support for jewelry crafting ingredients. Note: you will need to either create a new rule yourself, or reset AutoCategory to default settings to grab the new default rule.
    • To create your own rule, use
      Lua Code:
      1. filtertype("jewelrycrafting")
    • To reset to default settings: In the Auto Category add-on menu, use the Defaults button. Then use the /reloadui command. Important: this will remove any custom rules/settings you have defined.
  • New API function "IsMarkedIS()" - use to test whether an item is marked with Item Saver. Note that FCO ItemSaver users should continue to use "IsMarked()"

1.26 Changes:
  • New API function "islocked()" - use to test whether an item has been locked.

1.24 Changes:
  • Resolve circular dependency issue with DoItAll (requires matching update to DoItAll).


1.23 Changes:
  • Added Set Tracker support! Use "getsettrackerstate()" to retrieve the name of the Set Tracker category, if an item is tracked.
  • Added charlevel() and charcp() to pull current character level and CP. Can be used to compare item level to your character level with a custom rule. (Thanks to VulcanTourist)

1.22 Changes:
  • You can now define separate settings for your home storage chests (they will take their initial settings from your bank settings, but can be customized at will).

1.21 Changes:
  • Added support for home storage chests (big thanks to raj72616a). Currently, they will use the settings selected for your bank (no custom settings for home chests yet).
  • Bumped API version for Dragon Bones.

1.19 Changes:
  • Fixed Localization.
  • New Feature: Collapsed/Expanded status can be saved now. You can turn it on in the general setting menu.

  • Fixed Bug: Quest Panel will not complain about lua error.

1.17 Changes:

1.16 Changes:
  • New Feature: Collapsible Category. You can now click the header to fold all items inside. Get an overall view of your inventory! Context Menu is available, you can collapse/expand all headers with one click.
  • New Feature: Hide-able Category. You can hide some categories to focus on the items you need to deal with. Also you can hide the items that are not matched in the 'Other' category. Can be set in bag setting menu.
  • New Feature: Items Count. You can get a total number about how many items inside the category. This can be turned off in the general setting menu.
  • Account Wide setting changed: You can switch account wide/character wide for each of your characters. (* Need to select again if you use character setting before, don't affect the bag settings)
  • Fixed bug: Removed duplicated rules in bag setting.
  • Fixed bug: German set names should be able to be matched now.
  • Changed api:keepresearch()
    After a lot of tests, the api is not working fine. So I decided to make the api work more simple: It will match all the items can be researched. If you want better result, please use it with other api together. This is a basic idea to filter the item that is not part of a set and can be researched:
    Lua Code:
    1. keepresearch() and not isset()
  • New api:isset() api:ismonsterset()

One of the rules in your saved rules is corrupted (set to nil). Unless you feel comfortable with editting your saved variable file with a text editor to look for the saved corrupt rule; your best choice is to delete your saved variables file (while you are not logged into the game) and start over again with the default set you can add to or change.

If you have used the old getstatetracker() in one of your rules, its disappearance could have caused the problem and deleting or changing that rule could fix the problem - but you will likely have to edit the saved vars file to find and fix it.

Did you try deleting the saved variables/settings for AutoCategory, ro set it back to defaults? My best guess is that the rule compilation is failing on something specific to your rule sets. Uninstalling and reinstalling AC will not delete your existing rules unless you get rid of the saved variables file.

UI Error

Have suddenly started to get this UI error. Have used Auto Category for quite a while with no problems. I have 10 toons on my main account and when logging in to any of them, I get the above error. When I try to access settings>addons>auto category, it is not listed.

Thing is, my main account is through the normal launcher, but I have a second steam account which runs on the same computer so uses the same addons. When I log into this account, there is no error. All works fine. I have been running both accounts together with Auto Category for quite a while with no problems till now.

I have tried everything from reinstalling Auto Category to changing settings via the Steam account then reloading my main account, and everything in between, but no joy.

Any insights into what I can do to fix this?

good app

Unfortunately the problems that plague me still persist. While i have your add-on in with inventory grid view I have no ESC,Tilde, or mail so sorry I am sure other keyboard functions are compromised as well.

Oh wow, it's so noticeable. I used to switch to a "non-everything" view on a merchant to sell stuffs because displaying everything with Inventory Grid View on was so laggy - now it's smooth as if it doesn't have to do anything. Thanks all!

Good news everyone - Shadowfen has continued his great work and came up with more (very significant) performance improvements. YMMV but for me, I now see virtually no lag when opening inventory, bank, etc. The only exception is guild banks -- something is still going on there, I will have to look into it.

I have zero issue with IGV & AC running on any of my characters.
Issues with just AGS and AC, or is IGV also active when this happens?
OH... Hmm... Yes, I keep IGV enabled all the time... I should test AGS & AC without IGV enabled & see if the issue is still present.

Thx for the suggestion, Crafty!


EDIT - 09.19.18 @ 12:11:09:

Inventory Grid View IS LIKELY causing the problem (somehow) when all 3 mods are enabled.

Loading AGS alongside AC while disabling IGV = Issue not present.

Would recommend a minor change to "Low level" category such that it filters out items that are researchable.

Props for this addon excellent idea and neat application

But I cannot One could simply try to put some ~= nil checks into IGV but pretty sure this will not "fix" the lua errors to appear, but only hide them. And the error is still there then and makes the addon break or break temporarily.

Not sure why the whole UI gets somehow disabled. This sometimes happen if you are messing around with scenes or fragments. Maybe AutoCategory does change ascene or fragment in the inventory, IGV raises an lua error and AC cannot go on normally and thus the changed scene / fragment is broken and the UI too this way?
Could it be that the two addons together are hitting and passing some hard limit of things for ZOS - like the number of anchors errors appeared to be for a variety of addons? That problem had not necessarily the same addons reporting because it depended on load order who got loaded last. If so, certain combinations of addons would cause the problem because they are complex enough to use lots of an unknowingly limited set of resources. Neither addon is wrong and by itself operates correctly.
