    ImprovedMerchant  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

    Version: 3.6x5
    by: Macniel [More]

    Warning
    if you depend on item scaling and spacing between items do not upgrade and use version 3.6a instead, this update is not necessary if the previous version (3.6a) is working fine on your computer.

    Installation

    You install this AddOn like any other, just unpack the downloaded zip into your /Interface/AddOns folder.

    Summary
    Hello and welcome back to another helpful AddOn which will improves your daily shopping-adventures with merchants.

    Okay what did this AddOn do to your merchantframe ? It replaces the paged item display with a scrollable and more informative list which can also be filtered by available item types. It use the same purchase protection like the default merchantframe when buying an item which requires honor-,arena-points or specific items.

    Features

    • Filter: you can filter items from a vendor out. You can setup a filter to show only trainable, usable, purchasable items or just items from a specific type (or subtype)
    • Searchcraft: you can search item descriptions for certain a or multiple (seperated by an colon ;) keywords and filter those out which does not include your keywords
    • Scrollable List: you can now scroll through the merchant shop instead of the paged view
    • Autorepair: as a request you can now check a button on a merchant frame to enable autorepair.

    It's more complicated than that. There are numerous globals that need to be fixed and some vars are unpassed that should be. I got it working but the author really needs to either support the mod or ask someone else to take over.

    Repairs or a replacement?
    I hate to say it, but it's been over a year since anything has been done with ImprovedMerch. While it had a great system to it, I suggest using xMerchant as a replacement.

    Traveler's Tundra Mammot - Gnimo (clickong on him).
    I got an issue, not sure if it is related to some bug with Gnimo on the "Traveler's tundra mammoth" mount.

    But when clicking on him i recived the following error... (mine is up-to-date).

    Code:
    Message: ...ace\AddOns\ncImprovedMerchant\ncImprovedMerchant.lua:12: attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value
Time: 02/24/15 23:55:18
Count: 1
Stack: ...ace\AddOns\ncImprovedMerchant\ncImprovedMerchant.lua:12: in function <...ace\AddOns\ncImprovedMerchant\ncImprovedMerchant.lua:5>

Locals: c = 0
(for index) = 2
(for limit) = 4
(for step) = 1
b = 2
(for index) = 19
(for limit) = 28
(for step) = 1
s = 19
l = "[Senegal]"
(*temporary) = nil
(*temporary) = 1
(*temporary) = 2
(*temporary) = "Interface\ICONS\INV_Feather_11.blp"
(*temporary) = 1
(*temporary) = false
(*temporary) = "attempt to perform arithmetic on a nil value"
sellgrays = true
autorepair = false
    Edit (additional): After the error i traveled to Stormwind and spoke in Trade Distict with "Gunther Weller, Marda Weller" Weapons Merchant.
    - I recived all and the same error from each NPC in Garrison NPC, Ashran, "vendor mounts", Major City Vendors... same error...
