What it does
Simple Item Levels puts the item level of every equipped piece on its icon in the character panel. The same numbers show up when you inspect another player, in loot windows and in the equipment picker flyout, and on Classic clients they are added to tooltips as well.
Weapons and armor in your bags get a number too. It works with the default bags and with Bagnon, Baggins and Inventorian. When you carry something usable with a higher item level than what you have on, it gets an upgrade arrow.
Settings live in a slash command. You pick where the numbers appear, whether the arrow stays on and whether the text takes the item's quality color.

FAQ
When does the upgrade arrow appear?
When you can use the item in your bag and its item level is higher than what you have equipped in that slot. Use /simpleilvl upgrades to turn it off.
Can I show item levels only in the character panel?
Yes. Turn the other places off with /simpleilvl bags and /simpleilvl inspect, and the character panel stays on.
