Enabling Auctioneer in WoW
In order to successfully and efficiently run Auctioneer in World of Warcraft, you need to ensure that several settings are enabled in the AddOns list in the game.
How to get to the AddOns list
When you first open the WoW game client and login to the game, you are presented to the Character Selection screen. This is where you can choose which character you will play during the session and create new characters / manage existing characters. It looks like this:
You will notice that down the bottom left of the Character Selection screen, there is a button labelled AddOns. When you click this button, you will go to the AddOns List. If you do not see this button, then your AddOns are not installed correctly (See: A step by step guide to installing/upgrading Auctioneer to install them correctly)
Setting the AddOns up so they work
Once you are in the AddOns List, your screen will look like the following:
You should make sure that the following options are set correctly.
- Configure AddOns For is set to All characters.
- Load out of date AddOns is checked.
- In the actual list, the Stubby and EnhTooltip AddOns should always be selected and golden in color. If they are not, none of the other AddOns will be able to load.
- Choose which of Auctioneer, Enchantrix, BeanCounter and Informant you wish to run in the game and make sure they are selected and golden in color as well. Since these addons can be configured to load on demand, there's really no harm in turning them all on, and configuring their load behaviour using the in-game commands.
If some of the AddOns in the AddOn List are not golden in color in the AddOns list, that means something that they need is either not installed, or not enabled.
If the above AddOns are not visible in the list, that means that they are not installed correctly (See: A step by step guide to installing/upgrading Auctioneer to install them correctly)
