I'm not sure if i'm being incredibly dense or lucky or have something wrong with my environment, but I'm not sure how to reproduce this issue. I created some categories and things seemed to behave.

Could you give me the specific commands you ran and a click-by-click description of the problem, and i'll get it resolved (somehow)

For some reason, the books i got out of the Scarlet Monastery : Library instance, along with other books don't allow me to click on the number next to them. No errors, but I can't read them.

Hah! Nevermind, logged out then in and it works. Great addon.

That's too bad.....still a great addon. Hopefully, Iriel will fix it up for us.

Bookworm <catid>

A super addon I wish I had discovered earlier. I seem unabe to create more than one catagory. No matter what alpha numeric combination i use.. I always get invalid ' < catid > '. Is this a bug or is there a trick to creating additional catagories, or could it be that I have gone braindead..
Pls Help with maybe an example of a couple that would work.

You should be able to click on the book icon in the top left corner to go 'back' a step.

Never mind, I downloaded it and tried it out and it does in fact do what I'm looking for.

A request though, is it possible to make it so that you don't have to type in "/bookworm browse" each time you want to look at something you've grabbed in the past? A command that opens up a GUI that allows you to go forward through grabbed books, and then back to the main index when you want to read something else, instead of having to close out what you've just read and and the type the browse command again. It get's a little monotonous.

Also, while working on the "Well Read" achievement, I had to go into Scholomance for three books, and when ever I opened a book, even though it was saved to the mod, it would give a "Bookworm: Unable to obtain Location" error.

Thanks and keep up the good work.

I've been looking for a replacement for a mod called Librarian for a while (hasn't been updated in over a year), and I'm curious if this is the mod I'm looking for. I like the idea that Bookworm notes where you've seen certain books, but I'm wondering if it also "captures" the book, like Librarian did, so that I can look up and read certain books while say in flight between flight points for a while. Thanks.

3.0.2 Update?

While Bookworm (thankfully) still works with the 3.0.2 patch, will there be an update to make it fully compatible and fix the couple issues that may have arisen (such as the last comment about categories)?

This is still working in 3.0.2, however when I create a category, all of a sudden nothing is browseable. I can open /bw browse and select read/unread/all/uncategorized, but am not able to click into any books. As soon as I delete the categories I created, it's fine again.

Bookworm Extractor

I love this mod and have used it since about as long as I can remember. A few years back there was a program called Bookworm Extractor that would scan your bookworm.lua file and convert all your books into text files. I loved it, but I no longer have it, and I can't find it anywhere! Would you happen to have this little program, or perhaps create a new one for it?

Secondly, that FixBookwormlua program sounds very nifty. I have a few books from an old pre-TBC that I don't think I'll ever re-read again, and I'd love to convert that file over and see what was in it if its still at all available.

Thanks VERY MUCH for the creation and continued support for this addon!

*sigh*

I should have found it years ago... this would have been fun!

Now I have to grind azeroth again to find all the books around... or is there a publicly available collection of books to download? I'll take it! LOL!

I love these little story-telling items in the game!
Thank you for this addon!!
