Guild Store Search  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.1
by: xevoran [More]
No more updates: As I won't be renewing my subscription to the game (too many combat bugs, too many bugged skills, bad inventory system, poorly designed UI), I won't be able to continue supporting this addon. For additional features and continued updates, please have a look at Guild Store Search Extended by lintydruid.




Allows you to do a textual search for items in the guild stores you have access to. It displays the results sorted by unit price. You can search an individual guild or search across all guilds to find the cheapest.

It will get every item for sale in the guild store(s) you select. Then you can search for items that match the text you enter.

Press the Guild Store Search button while a Guild Store is open.


1. Select a specific guild or choose All. Then press Retrieve.

2. Once all the items have been retrieved from the selected guild stores,
type the text you want to find and press Find Match.

3. You can match the text to items from a specific guild or items from all guilds.

4. Use quotes for exact matching, no quotes for partial matching.

5. Type different text or select different guilds and press Find Match again
to search the stored results again.

6. You can press Retrieve again to update the items from the guild stores.


To buy an item, press the "Go To Page" button. It will change the main Guild Store interface to the page where the item you want to buy can be found. You still have to scroll down to that item and buy it.


Development Notes:
Barring any serious bugs that require fixing, this is the final version of this add-on. No additional features are coming. I've learned what I needed and I've put in all the features that I need into the add-on for my personal use.

If anyone wants to start a new add-on starting from this one to add their own features or changes, please go ahead and do so. Take all the code or parts of it as you require.

I probably won't be re-upping either. That 5-Day Complimentary gametime reminded me that I needed to cancel. Thanks for you work on this addon though, it made the use of the Guild Store much more tolerable.
Wow, really? Well, thanks for the addon but you guys don't know what you are missing. Every MMO has some issues on release but this is one of the best games to be released in recent years. The combat system is incredibly fun and they fix things all the time.

I get that same error for all four guilds. /reloadui has not helped.

EDIT: Relogging completely out of the game fixed both the numbers of the guilds and the errors.
I confirm this behavior. I was logged in and had 5 guilds, i left 1 guild (leaving me with 4 guilds) and the Retrieve function no longer worked with error "You have no guild stores". I tried to issue /reloadui to no avail.
I had to quit the game entirely, reload it, and only then i was able to issue a Retrieve.

Ok, so I've done all you suggested and everything was just working fine.
It got me thinking what was I doing differently last time and I think I got it now.

I remember last time to save time I was running the retrieve-process only for one guild at a time so I can search for items immediately. I ran a retrieve process for guild number 1 then I searched for a specific item, then I did exactly the same for 2 more guilds.
After that I though I would search for another item now in all 3 guilds at the same time by choosing the All filter option from the "From Guild" dropdown. Well, it did not work.

Silly me, I presumed that every data retrieved for a guild is stored separrately from the other ones and it does not get purged whenever I start a retrieve process for another guild, but obviously that's not the case.

If I am getting it right, every time I push the retrieve button, all previously retrieved data will be erased, no matter what.

Sorry for any inconvenience I may have caused.
I love this addon, one of my favorites. Keep up the good work!

For those having the problems searching through All guilds, please follow the steps below *exactly* and answer the questions after steps 2, 5 and 6.

1. Open the Guild Store UI, then open Guild Store Search.
2. Press F, select a guild with a store you have access to, then Press R. This sets the active guild in the main Guild Store UI.
  • What is the number of the active guild? (1,2,3,4 or 5)

(These 2 steps are important, so they're orange ;-)
3. Select All in the "From Guild" dropdown.
4. Prese Retrieve, wait until the Find Match button appears.



5. Select a guild in the "From Guild" dropdown that is different from the active guild. Type some text that should match an item that you know to be available for purchase, press Find Match.
  • What is the number of the guild you set in the "From Guild" dropdown?
  • Does it correctly find matches from the guild you selected in Guild Store Search?
    • If not, what results does it return (please give details)?
    • How many guilds are you a member of and which ones (by number) has a store that you have privileges to purchase from?


6. Select All in the "From Guild" dropdown, keep the same text as in step 5, press Find Match.
  • Does it correctly find matches from all guilds?
    • If not, what results does it return (please give details)?
    • How many guilds are you a member of and which ones (by number) has a store that you have privileges to purchase from?

I wonder if anyone else encountered this problem.
Could this be an update-related problem? I just deleted the old GuildStoreSearch folder and copied the new one under the Addons folder manually.

Even if "All" is selected, it will only scan the guild you have selected in the ESO's Guild Store UI.

You need to originally install it from Minion. Not sure why, but Minion doesn't seem to pick up all existing mod installs. Just uninstall Guild Store Search and install it using Minion.

Note that any interaction with the Guild Store either through the regular UI or through GSS that is faster than once every 3 seconds will cause the "Too many searches..." error, so always count to 3 between pressing buttons. ;-)

A little feature I'm not documenting in the Addon Page:

After you press Retrieve, type * in the text field and press Find Match. This will display all items retrieved regardless of guild (it ignores the selected guild in the drop down). Not officially supporting it but it's there in case you find a use for it (hint: BatmanStoreFilter is awesome!).

If there are any bugs, let me know. Give details. :-)
Damnit, I was Just about to post my own "fix", too:

Under about line 248:

local icon, name, quality, stackCount, seller, timeRemaining, price =
GetTradingHouseSearchResultItemInfo(i)

I inserted:
local TimeBonk = GetGameTimeMilliseconds()
while GetGameTimeMilliseconds() - TimeBonk <= 50 do end

It's dogsh** slow, at like 5 seconds a page, but it works the whole way, I tried 2.5 seconds and it failed after a few pages...

It's not just the addon. Even the default store, with no addons enabled, gets this error.
