Auctionator fails to search for "group search"
HeruWolf opened this issue ยท 4 comments
I discovered an issue with Auctionator where it will not search for all appearances of an item all though the code is in the addon to allow for that to happen, or at least, so it tries to do.
This is my initial attempt at searching for the whole group, as you can see no results are found.
So I further tested:
These two manual searches of the items that were searched via the group search were successful and displayed results.
So I dug deeper, I saved the group search as a shopping list, and click manage>edit to discover what it was actually shopping for: I found this
"Coldsnout Shoulders"
"Voidcaller Shoulders"
This made me start thinking, it's searching for the "exact match" which is initiated by putting quotations around the word, so I removed the quotations from the shopping list
searched again, and while not perfect, displaying 2 failing, and ultimately unnecessary searches, it still solved the problem mostly,
I hope I gathered enough information for you guys to hopefully fix this, I love this addon, it has so much use built into it that people likely want, but don't know they can get through your addon because it is only advertised as a transmog addon.
Thanks
The Auctionator search module now specifies that it is searching for armor to not explicitly include the double quotes. You can test this on our master branch now.
