GuideHelpCommands and reference
Every command, how sync and privacy work, and answers to the common questions.
Type /wc alone to open the window; /warchest works too. Anything the window does, a command can do. Item names can be typed: /wc want thorium bar 3.

Every member keeps a copy. Nobody has to be online for others to see their data.
Data sent by its owner always wins. Copies relayed by someone else only fill gaps and are marked "(relayed)". If anyone relays wrong data about you, your add-on republishes the truth. Malformed messages are dropped.
Settings > Sharing & privacy: pick each part (bags, bank, mail, professions, stats and so on), keep gold private (it is by default), give a character the minimal profile, opt a character out completely, or hide single items. Item names you learn are kept on your computer only.
Open your bank and a mailbox once on that character. The game only lets add-ons read them while they're open. The Getting started card ticks them off when it worked.
Their data arrives when they, or anyone who has a copy, is online. Press Sync now (or Shift-click the minimap button). The Guild tab shows each member's add-on version and how fresh their bags and bank data are.
My Items counts what you're wearing as well as your bags, bank and mail. Opening it re-reads your bags. In the game's combined backpack, slot 1 is the bottom-right one. /wc bags prints exactly what Warchest reads, bag by bag, to compare or to send with a problem report.
The vault is shared by whoever opened it last, and the Contents page says who and when. Opening the vault yourself updates it for everyone. Tabs your rank can't view aren't shared with you.
Kill on sight is for players who can attack you. Your own faction can't be added, except in free-for-all areas like arenas. To add anyone by name: /wc kos Name reason.
Since 3.0 the window has nine tabs. Materials, Gear, Recipes, Crafting, Wishlist, My Items and Characters are pages of Items; Guild needs is a page of Requests. The pages sit on the row under the tabs, and each tab reopens the page you used last.
Your Warchest keeps what your character sees while you're online, so the page fills as people talk. Catching up on what you missed needs a guildmate with Warchest online, and your rank among those that get catch-ups (on by default; officers can change it in Together > Chat > Who can see, or Guild > Access). /wc chat status shows how many lines the game delivered this session and whether your rank gets catch-ups.
Your counters reach the guild a few minutes after they change. Check the Stats tab's You page: you may have hidden yourself, kept a category private, or turned off Stats sharing in Settings > Sharing.
Their rank may be excluded. Guild > Access shows the current rule. The guild leader changes it in Access & ranks; including a rank later resumes sync on its own.
Settings > Notifications & look > Style: classic, then /reload. Opacity, dark or parchment tint and text size apply to both styles.
Settings > Notifications & look picks the channel (chat, pop-up, banner, both or silent) and each reminder. Missed one? The ! button keeps the last 50. PvP alerts have their own switches in Settings > PvP.
Run /wc diag (or Settings > Run diagnostics). It records how Forever formats names, bank tab IDs and which game functions exist, and saves the result into your SavedVariables file to share with the author.
