The purpose of this mod is to help us sell the kind of items that we get most frequently: For example, you're fishing and loaded with raw fish or gray items.

## How to use it

As simple as going near a merchant and opening their trade window, then you can click on the sell button. By default it will sell all gray items and use no sell or save list.

## Options

- Auto sell: Automatically sell the items when you open a vendor.
- Information type: You can choose from all to lite the output of the addon.
- Show detail: Shows a profit detail of each item.
- Use list: Activates the use of sell and save lists.
- Show list: Prints the contents of the sell and save lists.
- Add item: Adds an item to the sell or save list.
- Del item: Deletes an item from the sell or save list.
- Reset sell list: Clears the sell list.
- Reset save list: Clears the save list.

## Using sell/save lists

With sell and save lists you can personalize which items you want to sell or save. They work as a filter in which you can add the complete name of the items you want to sell/save or part of the name. Here are some examples:

- Example #1: You're leveling fishing skill and you're tired of having to sell each fish stack one by one. You can add the word ''Raw'' to the sell list and all the uncooked fish will be sold when you push the button. This is because all normal uncooked fish start with the word ''Raw'', so the addon searches for them and sells them for you.
- Example #2: You have a fabulous gouging pick poor quality item, but you don't want to sell it. You can add the name of the item to the save list and when you sell all your poor quality items, your pick will remain with you.

Important: Be careful when using part of the item name instead of all the name. For example if you add ''Basilisk'' to the sell list, it will sell ALL items that have that word. And remember to have activated the option ''use list'' if you want to use sell and/or save lists!

## Addon Commands

You dont need to use these commands to make the addon work, they're a shortcut if you prefer typing than opening the addon options.

## Installation Guide

1. Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
2. Download the mod you want to install
   - Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
   - Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
   - If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
3. Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
   Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
   - Windows
     - Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
     - WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
     - WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
   - Mac Users
     - StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
4. Verify your WoW Installation Path
   That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
5. Move to the Addon folder
   - Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
   - Go into the "Interface" folder.
   - Go into the "AddOns" folder.
   - In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
   - The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
   - Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
6. Start World of Warcraft
7. Make sure AddOns are installed
   - Log in
   - At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
   - If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
   - If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.

## Translations

When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".

## TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)

When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.

If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

## Mac Support

WoW addons are not platformed based. As such, they can be used on either Mac or PC. You can extract both .zip and .rar files on a Mac using StuffitExpander.

  I'd like to make a suggestion. Even with not having detailed sell information on, SOM posts a big 3-line event every time I have a grey item in my bags and I visit a vendor. Would it be possible to get a more compact sell info line? Something like the following would be great:
  "Sell-O-Matic has sold xx items for xxg xxs xxc."
  It would save me from having to edit the lua files every time you update your addon. :-) *laugh* I just comment out the 4 lines right before the call to ShowProfit. :)

  Maybe I could add a 3 way filter to display full, summary or lite info. Will take a look at it!

  I mean: Is THERE* a command equivalent to /som addtext. Sorry, typo.

  Is the a command equivalent to '/som addtext [link]' that would put the item on your save list rather than sell list?
  Also, on another note, when I interact w/ a vendor, SOM automatically sells my wool cloth when it is not on the sell list (I tried doing a /som deltext but it says item isn't on the list), why is it trying to sell my wool cloth when it's not on the list?

  Can you copy/paste all the items in your sell list? It shouldnt sell that wool if its not in the sell list.
  As for the save list I dont have any command equivalent to /som addtext, but I could add it.

  I was using another vendor trash plugin until I lost something I wanted to keep. A shirt.
  Now I have been looking everywhere for a replacement.
  I thought I found it here, but unfortunately it doesn't work the way I would expect.
  I want an exclude list to NOT sell.
  The problem with this app is that you have to enter thousands of items that you WANT to sell. I like the idea as below of adding "raw" etc, it's a nice thing, but what I really need is an exclude list.
  Maybe the author can add an exclude list, so if you aren't using lists and want to just sell all trash, EXCEPT a few items.
  This would really help.
  Does anyone know of a plugin that already does this?
  Thanks. I will keep trying this one out, but I can't see myself adding every trash item in the game.

  Save list = Exclude list. Read the "Example #2" in the description...

  Right, I understand that, but the problem seems to be that unless you have sell items nothing gets sold.
  In all my tests, it never seemed to work unless I put items in the sell list if the box is checked to use lists, but I can't tell it to save 3 items, and sell everything else. I would have to load up the sell list with thousands of trash entries.
  Unless it was not working correctly, or I did something wrong, this is how it was acting.
  Is there a wild card or something to put in the sell list?
  Or will it just not work like this?
  Maybe there needs to be 2 check boxes to enable the save and sell lists independently.
  Please let me know if I am doing something wrong, or if this is how it is supposed to work.

  If you dont specify anything in the sell/save list, the addon tries to sell all the junk (gray items). The save list is made so users can save some gray items from being sold.
  The normal and quality items (green, blue, etc) need to be added to the sell list in order to be sold, but you can use wildcards. You can use part of the name for example to sell a whole batch as the example in the description shows. You can be fishing and want to sell all raw fish. You add "Raw" to the sell list and will sell them all.

  I was tired of trying to delete an item from list using a link and having it not work this slight code change fixed this. /som deltext [text link]
  It wasnt removing the brackets for checking in the list, while it was removing brackets for putting it in the list. I changed text to itemName in the string search algorithm.
  function SellOMatic:SOMListDelLink(info,text)
  if text ~= nil then
  name = GetItemInfo(text);
  if name ~= nil then
  itemName = name;
  else
  itemName = text;
  end;
  local num = 0;
  for i,v in ipairs(self.db.profile.sellList) do
  if itemName and string.find(self.db.profile.sellList[i], itemName) or itemName == v then
  num = num + 1;
  table.remove(self.db.profile.sellList, i);
  SellOMatic:Print(v.." "..L["removed from sell list."]);
  end;
  end;
  if num == 0 then
  SellOMatic:Print(text.." "..L["not found on sell list."]);
  end;
  end;
  end;

  For some reason when I open the box to add a new item to the sell list in the menu the box to type in shows up BEHIND the main configuration box with the buttons so I have to close it every time to click "Add to sell list" or "Add to save list." Any idea how to fix this? Other than that great job making one of my favorite addons!

  Might be a problem with the layers, will take a look at it...
  Meanwhile you can use "/som additem" from the chatbox.

  Very nice tool, the only problem I see right now it the fact that it's really hard to add an item... Is there a way to Shift click and item and get its name added to the appropriate list rather than having to type it manually?

  You can use '/som addtext [link]', so you only have to type the addtext and then shift click the item. I'm working on a more easier way to add the items, but havent finished it yet...

  Is there any chance that you could implement something like auto profit had where it would automatically sell unusable green items that you got from quests (bop rewards that your toon cannot equip)? many thanks for this addon, if it weren't for the green autosell option it would be perfect

  Search for green items that are BoP and cannot be used/equiped? That could be usefull...
  Will check it for next release.

  Not sure what happened, but I added a whole bunch of armor and weapons that drop in Strat, when to sell everything at once, and none of the recently added items would sell. The items did show up in chat as if it did sell, but they were still there. Reloaded UI and it still didn't work. :|

  Did you check that those items can be sold? I remember doing scholo a month ago or so and BoP items could be destroyed or disenchanted, but not sold. Please check this.

  Ah, I forgot to mention I was able to sell it manually. I'm going to run Scholo again to see if it happens again.
