About Fence

Fence
An auction house AddOn to make the life of each fence easier.

Summary
Fence is a modular and lightweight Ace2 tool of the trade for the daily auction house business. It's aim is to be as most efficient and modular as possible. Use /fence to enable or disable any included feature.

Caution: If you are using Auctioneer or any other auction AddOn you should disable the Auto Fill and Clicks module in Fence. Conflicts are pretty possible if those AddOns are running simultanously.

Current modules

  • Auto Fill

Remembers the prices of items you put into the auction house. It does always calculate the right price, regardless if you auction a stack or only one of that kind. You can also set a fixed auction runtime (2, 8 or 24 hours) or let Auto Fill remember your last used auction runtime.
Another option is the auto-buyout. It does multiply the start price with a customizable markup and fills the buyout when no price informations are available. So if the start price of an item is 1g and the markup is 1.5 the buyout would be 1,5g.

  • Bid Watch

Simple module to protect you against scam. You can set a fixed amount (in copper) when Bid Watch should warn you. It will ask you with a popup dialog. Eg. you set 10000 copper (1 gold). If you click a bid for 2 gold the popup dialog will show and ask if you're really sure to bid for this item.

  • Clicks

The Clicks module is quite the most powerful tool of Fence. It's purpose is to shorten time-consuming and repeating processes by adding short-cuts for various actions.
alt and left-click on an item in your inventory does automatically auction the selected item for either known or standard auction house price. It also does switch to the auctions frame automatically or, does, when activated, a search for this item. When you're not in the auction house and a trade window is open, alt and left-click does automatically put the selected item into the trade window
alt-shift and left-click does sell the item immediately (you should always double-check after putting items on acution)
alt and right-click does split a stack into one piece each time you click
shift and right-click does split a stack into its half. eg: 20 into 10, 5,2 and 1. 5 always splits into 2 and 3 to 1.
ctrl and right-click does call the search module.

  • Sort

This is based on Abraha's AuctionSort. Updated for WoW 2.01 and made to use Ace2 by [phyber]. What it does is adding another sort option to the auction house, "Name".

  • Search

ctrl and right-click will search the auction house for the selected item. It also switches to the browse frame automatically.

  • Browse

When you're browsing in the AH search frame the Browse module will show the single buyout price of an item right next to its name. It will also show you if there already are bids on the items. When the item name gets too long Single Price will truncate the name so, that the price information will still fit on the item button. Of course the single price will only be shown when the item count is greater than one. You can select which style you want to be shown (short, full, condensed) and also if you want to see if there were bids on the items.

  • Wipe

deprecated and removed now since Blizzard added an own reset option (yay!)

Additional Information
Fence is built to be modular. Each of the above features is in the Fence/modules/ directory as a file or folder. Should you decide a particular feature is not necessary for you, either toggle it off through the /fence menu, or if you wish you may simply delete the associated file in this folder. Note that at this time, all modules are enabled by default. Be sure to remove or turn off those you do not wish to use after you install.

If there are any comments, suggestions, or translations you would like to make available, please post them as a feature request in my portal. Authors are welcome and encouraged to commit additional modules, translations, or optimizations All I ask is that you inform me of the change on the WoWace forum.

Future plans

  • Coloring of auction house items (known recipe, cheapest bid/buyout)
  • Dewdrop based AH_Favorites
  • Price suggestion on item click (very minimal, only a quick scan, chat output, no tooltip modifications)

    I was very happy with this addon, installed it recently, but the ctrl-rightclick in AH no longer works since 4.0.1. Anyone know another addon for that? (search selected item on AH). Fence also gives a useful showbid function. Autofill didnt work anymore but I like it without that too. (although would be useful)
  • #20
    Srably, I just wanted to thank you for your post. I am having the exact problem you mentioned and I have been turning random AH related items on and off for a while trying to figure out the problem. I finally came here wondering if this was it and I see that it is a known issue.

    I hope he updates Fence I have used it for years. Thanks again!

    This is/was a great addon because of its simplicity ... but I have also seen some confusing stuff with the new multiple auction system. And Blizz changed the variables for the auction duration, so that will probably not be working too.

    Removing the annoying "are you shure ... " messages would also be a good idea for a module.

    Is somebody out there able to fix this?

    Or does anybody know another addon with auto-fill/save function and removing the AreYouShure-stuff?

    Just seen, there is an alpha version on WOWAce.com, so thankfully Phyber is working on it. I will try it.

    This addon breaks the multiple auction system introduced in 3.3.3

    When listing a stack of items in the auction window the entire stack gets placed
    at the per item price (ie your stack of 3 items you wanted to list at 100g each
    gets listed at 100g for all 3), this happens both with the default interface and using the new verion of Auctionator.

    I really love this addon -- is there any consideration towards adding a mass-purchase option?
  • #14
    Since the 3.1 patch, the auto fill doesn't seem to be working. Anyone else? Suggestions?
  • #15
    Indeed the auto fill time option isn't working, it's always @ 48 hours. :(
  • #13
    for the love of all that is Auctionable, this mod is worth it simply for the alt-click and alt-shift-click.

    Thank you

    Damnation, do you have any other addons that are playing with the auction house at all? Maybe another addon that is modifying the clicks there?
    Fence didn't take much to upgrade to 3.0, it was just one tiny change.
  • #11
    How about using the description field to describe what this addon actually does?
  • #10
    Something isn't quite right.

    On pre patch fence this was the default behaviour

    ALT-Left Click = browse for item clicking on
    CTRL-Right Click = Added item to action window

    While fence does add the item to the auction window it doesn't switch to the auctions window.

    However i do get the following error when i open the auction window which may be related.

    Blizzard_AuctionUI.lua:1171 attempt to concatenate local 'highbidder' (a nil value)

    Thanks for your continued support.

    Thank you so very much!!!

    I'm very sorry, i forgot how working Auto-Search option :-|
  • #7
    Sorry. I can't reproduce the issue you're speaking about. All of the clicks do the things they're intended to do when I do them at the auction window. :/
