In multiplayer, farmhands don't see chests in some locations. Farmhands can only see chests in synced locations (mainly the farm, farm buildings, and their current location). This is due to limitations in the game's multiplayer, there's no easy way to circumvent that limitation.
Chests Anywhere doesn't work on Android. The Android version of the game changes the ShopMenu constructors to add an extra string context argument. That can't be fixed by the mod itself; SMAPI on Android needs a compatibility rewriter to fix all mods that construct shop menus (including Chests Anywhere).
I have Better Chests installed too. That mod makes many changes to chests, and causes many of the issues reported here. Before asking for help on this page, temporarily remove Better Chests to make sure it's not a problem with that mod. You can report issues with Better Chests on its page instead.
How do I ask for help? First, check if the mod page already answers your question! (See "how to use" and "common questions".)
If not, upload your SMAPI log and add a link to your message. Do this even if you're not asking about an error or don't see one in the log; it has useful info like which mods you have, what happened in the game, etc.
Hi! Is it possible for items to disappear? I put fire quartz into my chest and it disappeared a few minutes later. I thought that maybe I put it in the wrong chest but I checked everywhere and nothing.
Absolutely don't mind me and have a wonderful day! I'm just being stupid out there...
Whenever i am click B to access all my chest, it keeps showing the community center fishtank as a chest and it always opens it as the first chest. The CCFishTank does not have a edit chest button so I cant disable it like I can other chests. Is there a way for me to do it manually through a config or something?
Hi! That seems like an issue with Theme Manager based on the comments on that mod's page. Just to make sure, can you cause the issue again, then upload your SMAPI log (see instructions on that page) and post a link here?
Hello, I accidentally hid the box, but I don't remember where it was, is there a way to contact the hiding without finding him? I'm distressed, English is not my native language, I hope you can understand
Hi! You can find it by opening your save file and searching for Pathoschild.ChestsAnywhere/IsIgnored.
If you need help with that, feel free to upload a zip of your save folder to a site like catbox and post the link here, and I'll let you know where it is.
I am so sorry, but I can't figure out how to set a sort order to the list. I see the "sort" box, and I am putting "Seeds" for example at 1, but it's still at the bottom of the list (I've removed all the zeros from the other ones)
Not 100% sure whether this is actually a Chests Anywhere problem, but:
I have a spooky phantom chest.
As of about a season ago, Chests Anywhere tells me I have a random unnamed chest somewhere on the farm. I'm 99.9% sure I never placed it. I searched the entire farm anyway, using the Automate overlay to highlight everything, and found nothing. I installed Item Locator, placed a unique item in the mystery chest via Chests Anywhere, and searched for it - and got "No paths found, but 1 container found". I prayed to Plutus, Greek god of wealth and treasure, and he told me to take a hike.
I've noticed that as I place other chests, the mystery chest's automatically designated name has changed. First it was "Chest #1", then "Chest #2", then I think it might have gone back to "Chest #1", and who knows what in between but now it's "Chest #14".
Any ideas? Does this chest actually exist in the physical realm? Have I accidentally created a hammerspace? A spiritual chest of holding in the form of a portal to the Astral Plane?
Is there a way to make it go away?
Maybe I should try dividing by zero.
Edit: Ignore me I'm an idiot the answer is six posts down as of this writing.
Hi! Love the mod - just wondering if there is a way to expand the shipping bin? Currently it only holds one chest worth and if I try to add more it trashes the items :(
Hi! The items aren't actually trashed, they just get pushed out of view. If you take an item back out, you'll see the extra items slide back into view.
============================================ I think the mod is just broken for 1.6 Mobile. Will get back here after trying the earliest release for 1.6.
I tried 1.23, 1.23-alpha, 1.23.5, 1.24, 1.25, and 1.25.2 and nothing worked. Seems that this is completely broken for mobile 1.6.
Hi! Unfortunately Chests Anywhere isn't compatible with Android due to a change in the base game on that platform. That can only be fixed by a SMAPI update; I added the info to the pinned message above.

If the order isn't working, can you...

Thanks!!!
I'm assuming its because mobile is behind, if so, what version should I download?
