Usage
Type /genie ingame
Sorting Rank
You want to change the sorting order? no problem :)
Commands
Before you begin, here's the list of available commands:
- /genie rank ... shows the current settings
- /genie rank default ... use the default settings
- /genie rank reset ... reset all ranks (if you want a clean start)
- /genie rank <criterion> <rank> ... set the rank of a criterion
- /genie rank <criterion> 0 ... disable a criterion (0 = Null, not captial O)
Setting rank
Let's begin. I will show you this with only two criteria (there are 16)
/genie rank === ItemRanking 1. Soulbound 2. Quality === Disabled
Presume that i want to have items sorted first by Quality, i just could type
/genie rank quality 1 Quality updated.
/genie rank === ItemRanking 1. Quality === Disabled Soulbound
Note that 'Soulbound' has been disabled, because 'Quality' has taken his place. If i don't care how items will be sorted after 'Quality' then i'm finished or i could type
/genie rank soulbound 2 Soulbound updated.
Now i have changed the sorting order.
Disabling criterion
/genie rank <criterion> 0
It's that simple
Notes
In the example above i could also set Quality to 50 and Soulbound to 100, the result would be the same
I know that you have to do much typing if you want to deeply change the sorting order - that's why an interface will be developed as soon as all features are working. In the meantime i suggest you to simply edit the sourcefile directly, it is located under WTF/Account/<YourAccountName>/SavedVariables/Genie.lua

@ Quaiche 1. enable reverse sorting with "/genie reverse", this should help 2. i'll install combuctor and try to find the reason
@felixtc interesting. this doesn't happen when i go to my bank. could you post me your sorting order?
Great from what I have used of it. I have a couple suggestions though: 1) Sort bag specific ex(i want this gear in this bag and nowhere else) 2) Add more criteria to sort by such as Food, Water, Potions, and Profession support.
Also, every time I get into my bank it rearranges it different which makes it quite difficult to find things.
I use Combuctor for my bag mod, which is essentially a "One Bag" view of your bags. When I use Genie, I've noticed a few things:
1. It fills from the bottom up. Doesn't appear to be a way to control that using ranking.
2. It sometimes doesn't "pack them in" leaving some stragglers at the top. Re-running "/genie bag" doesn't clean it up.
Other than that, I'm loving it.
there is no such switch ;)
delete the Bag_Sort.lua (and .lua.bak) in your savedvariables, download the newest genie version, and retry.
quick question (using 3.0.2.3) On most of my characters it will auto sort by bags/bank, however for some reason, it won't sort my warriors bag (it will the bank)... it was a clean install of everything for 3, so is there something I'm missing as to why it won't sort the bag at all? maybe a switch or something I might have accidentally toggled? lol
