Tabs keep shuffling.
Example. Everything looks fine if i have only eqip tab open, but when i hit all, the game, formulas, kindred etc items get shuffled throughout the equip items. i move them back to their place only to find them shuffled again later.
Why does it keep doing this? Is the stack items option causing this?
A clean and organized inventory makes me happy, but this feeling fruitless. Not the biggest priority, but i hope it will make it on the list. Thank you.


We will fix the tab problem soon.

is there any way we could get categories or some form of organization for the stored inventory? Is it possible? I would love if something like this could be done! thank you!


The mobile app will have organization based on storage boxes, and if that works well we'll extend that to the website also.

Can we please get someone to look at the inventory bugs in more detail again? I've been unable to reorganise my inventory for MONTHS, and I know others in the Bug Reports forum are the same. The temp fix of being able to retrieve items from locker/temp storage was great, but my locker still won't open and my temp storage is forever loading, and I'm unable to drag items anymore, plus obviously cant move them from page to page.

I didn't have this issue until the old inventory bug was 'fixed' and now it's been a really long time, and instead you guys are adding more random features instead of fixing serious issues like this. Would love some help! heart


I'll drop by bug reports and see if I can find any more clues. Sorry for the trouble.

We don't have it yet because the feature is a bit resource intensive for those with large inventories. After we get the inventory related features in place we'll work on this feature.

We currently have the option to view our inventory worth as a whole, but not individual item worth. Would it be possible to implement a list function where we can view our items listed along their values? This would be a great way to prioritize what items to sell on the marketplace.


Yes we can add inventory worth when viewing items, we're currently working on sort by price also. Should be out very soon.

Was a new bug introduced into inventory?

Last night I was able to drag amulets into storage and back out again into the kindred tab as I was sorting for things other than experience. Today when I earned quite a few more playing Lake Kindred, first I found I had to go to LK to reveal their properties, which it did even though the page wouldn't load, then when I sorted them and moved them to storage from page 2 then saved then tried to move them to page one, it wouldn't allow me to move the amulets out of storage unless I did it in the main all items tab.

Someone also mentioned this problem working with another tab, trying to rearrange inventory.
Today, for the 3rd time, I tried again and everything seemed to be working fine at first. Then about halfway through what I was doing, everything stopped working again and it returned to what was described above. In addition, in the all items tab, items from the kindred tab didn't show at all except for any moved or obtained within the last day.


There's been no changes to the inventory system recently, though a big update is coming soon. For arranging items, I suggest arranging with the "ALL" items tab as others seem to have problems. I'll check out the problem where items aren't showing up in the all items tab.

No, nothing like that. You will be able to name your own boxes though and put stuff inside them. Like a box for all blue hats for example, or whatever you can imagine.

Are you guys working on the bug that's making inventories not save and refresh when you click the save button? We have to refresh the page manually, currently.


Is that after arranging items? I'm working on inventory system right now and might have introduced a few bugs.
Lanzer

Not the same person but I'm also having this problem (at least it sounds like it)
If I move items to any of my lockers or extra spaces and click save
it just loads in limbo until I refresh the page

The items make it to the locker but it doesn't refresh the inventory like before
same thing if you move things outside of a locker, it loads forever
but if you refresh the page the items are in the area you put them


Hmm, I'm having trouble replicating the issue. If you can PM me and let me know exactly which item you moved from which page to or from temp storage, I can try to reproduce it. Thanks!

Hi staff!

Question: So each time i try to organize my inventory and save the changes, all the other items get automatically re-arranged and send to different pages. Is this a bug caused solely by having too many items (i have 18.5K) or is it widespread? Thankfully i haven't had items disappear suddenly from my invo yet.


I'm not sure. Hopefully, the new inventory system will help you organize better. 18.5k is a lot of items! I'm testing on a 60k test inventory, so it should hold up!

Has Gaia considered that inventory issues are due to the added cooldown period?

Because I personally have notice that the inventory issues when moving inventory items started since the cooldown period was implemented. Personally, I think the cooldown period should be removed [and all my reasons can be listed here]. I'm sure that there are many, including myself, that would like to see Gaia finally get around to fixing ALL inventory errors, both when moving items and when opening RIGs/CIs/caches/gifts.


The two issues are not related, and we're actually re-writing a lot of the backend with the aim to rid of the item moving errors that you're seeing right now. We will not be removing the cooldown as it's not linked to inventory issues, and we don't want the site to crash anymore. Although some of the changes that we're making for the release of Gaia Mobile might have, and it's something that we're working hard in sorting out.

-I personally would rather have the option to make my own way of sorting my items. You wouldn't have to replace the old format (hats. tops, accessories tab), just the option to use your own folders would be so coool.

I second this!

It would make sorting through my collection so much easier. I can only get so much out of organizing my inventory with the current tabs.


And I also agree with this. There's certain games where you can sort stuff by quantity, rarity, price and even most used. What's stop Gaia from doing so ?


Working on it!

I'm nervous about the fact that the new inventory system will be mobile-exclusive at first. If I hurry and arrange my inventory into a bunch of wonderful little boxes as soon as I can, what will happen if I then try to view (or even [shudder] sort) my inventory on the main site?

No changes will affect your main inventory on the site actually, the box system actually acts like a shortcut, so your main inventory won't get messed up.

I'm still investigating the issue with item loading. We changed our image provider and things got funky real fast. For mobile you will get to customize which item goes into which box. There will be sorting within a specific box too.

Either the temporary storage and inventory section buffers for a ridiculously long time or it gives us an error when we try to move anything and click save.

What's the plans for fixing the inventory organizer?
Whenever I try to organize my inventory i run into three major problems.
1. the page need to be refreshed to save.
2. the items don't stay where i put them. they jump around and jumble. even when i work in the "all" tab. the game and special items end up jumbling in between all the other items.
3. it errors out super quick. I can only more one or two items before i have to save on that page, before it errors out.

keeping a clean and orderly inventory is something I enjoy and pride myself in, but lately I haven't been able to fix anything because of these problems. I don't need or really want an auto organizer. I just want things to stay where they are put and not have trouble saving.
I'm curious if removing the "all" tab will prevent some items from jumbling around as much. as this seems to be the source for a lot of the problems. as long as the other tabs are there. it would be fine to keep you special items separate from your game or equip items. they all serve different functions and the need for a "all" tab might have expired.

hope this makes sense. thank you for taking the time to read this. I know it's been mentioned 100 or more times before, but organizing my inventory is one of my favorite things to do on gaia. aside from shopping in the marketplace. love shopping (why my inventory needs organizing. XD ) thank you.

We've been focusing on the mobile app so we haven't had a chance to look at the arranger, but we'll make note of this information so when we do take a look again we'll have this to think about.

EVERYONE had been having this problem since July when something broke. It baffles me why you're not seeing it; perhaps it only happens when inventory reaches a certain size?


Hi there,

I checked the number of items in your inventory and they are not currently enough to cause any issues, so that is probably not the issue.

I was just hypothesizing why only Lanzer could hit the save button in his inventory and have it actually save when the rest of us have to refresh the page in order for it to do so. Also doing so takes me back to the tab I was in the last time I made any changes in inventory and not to the tab I am currently in. There are other issues, well documented in the bugs forum over time related to whatever happened in July that never was fixed.


Let me have another look tonight. Sorry there might have been code that have not been refreshed since the fix.

That's something we can look into after the mobile app is released. We will probably do an overhaul on the web side after the release.

Working on something now. The difficulty is for very large inventories it takes a huge amount of time. With the box system we are working on, you'll easily be able to sort a chunk of your inventory, and we are hoping to allow for a lot more filters and sorting in future.
