1 month ago I guess this isn't an easy change. I tried to find it in the code, but as I'm not really familiar with lua I wasn't even able to pinpoint the part of the code that matches the items to the custom categories...
Anyway, I get it that TWW has a higher priority than my request, so I created a workaround for me. Whenever I add more than a few items (which can be checked manually), I automate my itemstring creation (I learned a lot about APIs doing this). I set up an Excel file that pulls item data directly from Blizzard. So I just paste a list of item IDs in, get the bound state from Blizzard and in the end I have my completed comma-separated itemstring, that I can paste into WoW.
If anyone is interested in doing this, I can elaborate here.
Is it possible to add items to custom categories with just item-ids. I'm not advocating for removing the current way, just add to it. Maybe use
item:<itemid>:-1(or any other number that's convenient for you) for items where the bound-state doesn't matter. Make that the default import, if no bound-state is provided and voila, it's done. That would be really great, because DF tends to clutter up my reputation bar and my guess is TWW will be similar. So that way I can move the old reputation tokens (some of which are bound and some aren't) to my "Dragonflight" bar once TWW launches and my reputation bar will be free for new clutter.
