Cataloging is the process of picking up items that aren't owned and then dropping them again.
This process registers the item in the player's in-game catalog which will then let them buy it on their own.

Ah, so if you go to another players' island and pick stuff up it will be in your catalogue even if you drop it down and don't take it with you to your own island?
I didn't know that, thanks!
I assume this doesn't work for items you would normally have to DIY?

Diy products will show up on your catalog, but they won't be orderable, meaning you can see them in the list, but it will say not for sale next to the item name.Ah, so if you go to another players' island and pick stuff up it will be in your catalogue even if you drop it down and don't take it with you to your own island?

There are also many non-orderable items that aren't diy products, like Sahara wallpapers and floorings, or a couple of K.K. songs.
Hi! I have a doubt, I gifted an umbrella to my villager the other day, and today she seem to have two of them in her house? I'm used to see how they put some stuff inside randomly but I don't get why there's two, is this supposed to happen? It can be fixed?

Kicks supremacy <3
Ok so I have max villagers Gayle is in my campsite and I want her to move in and replace cherry but she keeps saying Melba so I went to talk to Melba then I saw cherry wanted to move out so I said yes then went up to talk to Gayle and she is still saying Melba what can I do ???
instead of permanently buying/selling an item, cataloguing is when you pick up an item off the ground then drop it straight away - that way, since youve held it, you will be able to order the item yourself from your catalogue (in the ATM in your resident services building). super useful for expensive items e.g. grand pianos, or when its a full set with items you want to buy several of e.g the diner sets!!
Post automatically merged:
i think if you ask a campsite villager to kick someone else out it's a seperate process from villagers asking to move out on their own....whoever gayle kicks out will be put into boxes on the same day, while cherry will wait until tomorrow to be in boxes. if you said yes and melba's already in boxes then i think youre too late sorry
if you said no and melba's not in boxes, try this: save and quit your game and keep on asking gayle to move in and see who she picks...force quit the game without saving if she wants to kick out a villager you want to keep (you have to do this fast so it doesnt autosave). its tedious but just keep trying and trying til she chooses someone you dont want to keep!

Can anyone experienced in TT help me out please?
So I TT-ed ahead one day at a time to spawn the moving out bubble on my villagers, and along the way I met Merengue (campsite - 24th May). I invited her and went through the whole process i.e. sold lot, Merengue moving in.
Once I had a thought bubble on one of my villagers I was willing to let go, I said yes and then saved the game before returning to present day (23th May).
My question is: will anything happen at my campsite tomorrow? I'm fine with not getting another random campsite visitor, I'm just worried of the possibility of a glitch or error happening that will mess up Merengue or my other villager who is supposed to be in boxes.

I gifted Octavian a Nova Light yesterday, since his house is space themed and I wanted to see if he'd use it... Just checked, and he has two????? I am 99% sure he doesn't have one normally, so where did he get the second one???

Not all of the time, but there is a good chance that they will. It's random what all they display out of the stuff you give them (regardless of how they acquire it from you), but a rule of thumb is don't give them anything that can be placed if you don't want them to place it.
That's sad because I wanted to grant their whishes
I guess I won't.Thank you for the answer!

I know it sucks. I typically do the requests for villagers if I dislike their interiors or if I plan on getting rid of them anyway. As far as I know, it doesn't decrease your friendship to decline the requests, at least.That's sad because I wanted to grant their whishes
Thank you for the answer!

Yep!
Nope!
None that I know of, but I've never had a villager wear my non-pro design displayed as a shirt.
Yeah, it's a new glitch.
Thanks for your answer, hopefully it gets patched or that pink umbrellas are going to haunt me, sigh...
Interesting. I actually really like him having two nova lights, I was gonna give him another and maybe starry garland...
I guess thats another question I have, is there any rule for what villagers will/wont place in their home? I want to give Zell a white rose rug but I gave one to Whitney and she never placed it
Since you let the convo finish, she’s locked on Melba. You can either let her replace Melba or you’ll just have to let Gayle go. No need to talk to Melba as that’s all handled by the game. Next time, you need to hit the Home button and close the game as soon as a name of someone you want to keep is said. Then, the name can change.
Have a question concerning multiple islands!
Currently, I have 2 switches and 1 copy of NH. My primary switch has my main island on it, the only one I have made so far. What would happen if I put that same copy of NH in the other switch? Will it wipe the save data? Can I make a new island that's tied to the second switch? Do I need to buy another copy of NH for the second switch if I want a second island?
thanks for any help!! I really want to have a cycling island, but I want to be 100% before I do anything because I'd be devastated if my current island got wiped

Rugs, wallpapers, flooring, wall-mounted furniture (excluding doorplates), or edible items. It seems you can gift a villager a wall-mounted item to make them take another wall-mounted item out of their walls, but they won't replace it.Interesting.

Actually I think even after it's patched the umbrellas will remain there, sorry! You can always replace them with furniture!Thanks for your answer, hopefully it gets patched or that pink umbrellas are going to haunt me, sigh...
