Yeah, np. I will help with w/e I can.
Shall I record a video/take SSs everytime I'm using the AH or some kind of remote control ?

Nothing so elaborate, I'd just need you to try out some patches that I upload to the dev branch on github and tell me if they fixed it - some evening when you have time or on the weekend.

edit: I think I know what the problem is but I'll have to test a little tonight to see if the information is really right for vanilla. Basically the item names are not part of the client and have to be queried from the server, so autocomplete currently only works for all items you have cached, which they only will be if you set the tooltip for them.

Possible solutions are:
  • keep it the way it is now, only working for cached items and let caching them be the user's responsiblity
  • no localized autocompletion, shipping the whole list in english with the addon
  • setting the tooltip for all of them the first time to fill the cache (this may generate too much traffic and disconnect you)
  • Slowly querying and adding missing items in the background

This makes it clear why I weren't able to search for Foror's Compendium, simply cuz I haven't seen it.
If caching the items is doable via AH full search or clicking on an item link in world chat, it will be the best solution from the listed above, or at least in my opinion.

As far as testing the patches, I'm absolutely up for doing it during the weekends.

I believe many BoP items will be shipped with the list that can't be put for sale. Won't the autocompletion try to suggest them if they are within that list ?

There are two lists. There's the list that I generated with my own client by parsing the english tooltip and that I am now shipping with the addon. This is a list of about 8000 item ids including only items which are potentially auctionable, i.e., no bop items and no quest items.

The second list is the one which was causing the problems. This is a list of localized item names which is generated when the addon is loaded by walking through the item id list and calling GetItemInfo on every id.

What I meant is that I could skip the localization and just ship an english name list instead of an id list. The items would be the same as in the id list.

Suggestions:

- When writing Starting Price automatically fill Buyout price with same value
- On Starting Price, clicking tab goes from gold > silver > copper, but then tab again doesn't go to Buyout Price and it would be nice
- When selecting a different amount of either stack size or count, both prices get reset, shouldn't

What's the problem? Note you can no longer drag items from your inventory there, you have to select them on the inventory list on the left of the post panel.

Is it possible to implement both things? Yesterday i werent able to post Schematic: Sniper Scope because it didnt show up on the inventory list and i wonder if theres more items that dosnt do it

Also I dont think its possible to see ur own auctions atm, it dosnt work for me atleast. i had to open the default AH every time to check :/

I suppose. The reason I removed it is because it may not be compatible with all inventory addons unlike the current implementation. Strange that that didn't show up though, gonna look into that.

Where aren't you seeing your auctions? The post tab? Or the manage tab? (that was working for me last I checked, though sometimes you have to click the tab a second time before they show up, not sure why) In the search tabs you would only see them in the full view. Neither buy nor bid view show them and the buy view also doesn't show auctions without buyout price.
