Simple, minimal addon to automatically switch the watched reputation to the most recent faction gain.
(losses are ignored)
After looking around for a current and working addon for Cataclysm I found some that either:
- are partially working (don't work for all locales, miss out on collapsed factions etc)
- do too much
AutoRepSwitch will

Sorry for the reply delay. Took some time off as well as found another mod that works better. It changes the bar properly to a non-guild faction without having to move the guild to Inactive or make any other major changes (blacklisting or otherwise): "RepTracker (Reputation)".
Have noticed that one or two other rep-bar-switcher mods also have this problem with guild rep. Moving the guild rep to Inactive prevents you from seeing any gains in the chat window, which isn't what is wanted here (and I'm sure elsewhere). Currently on the leveling alt have reached the max guild rep gain for the week; as a result, AutoRepSwitch doesn't change to guild rep as there is nothing to trigger it (temporarily retesting it). Will try this again next week moving the guild rep to Inactive to see if what you have requested happens (I'm sure it will). Doing things the way that other mod does it and/or implementing a blacklist (or at least a built-in block for switching the bar to guild rep) certainly would be better that the current way it works. As long as the blacklist or block doesn't involve moving the guild to Inactive, as chat views of guild rep changes may/will still be wanted by people. |

No worries for the delay.
Use the mod that "works better" would be my recommendation, I'm not inclined to remove features listed on the addon front page as a way of improvement... I might add a blacklisting feature at some point. |

Retried v1.12-40000 a couple of weeks after the last post here and no further issues with guild reputation overriding the proper "last rep gained" trigger in WoW 4.0.6. Always switched the bars properly with nothing set to "inactive" (guild rep or otherwise).
Didn't do further testing to determine the cause of the earlier issue. But currently (incl. v1.13-40100), no issues. |

In WoW 4.2, the guild rep issue is back with a vengeance. Also might have something to do with playing & questing with a new leveled character as opposed to what was doing in WoW 4.1.
v1.16-40200 active with no other rep mods. On a character not at either exalted guild rep or exalted with the faction the bar should switch to. Nearly every time you turn in a quest (or kill a boss) that gives you guild rep (in the chat frame) and its listed in chat after the faction rep, the rep bar will switch improperly to guild. Even if you have your guild set to "Inactive" in the rep list. Many, many trials, and the problem consistently repeats. Next, try out the modern xUtils mod (I had been using for other things). Rep bar switching is one of its features. In its most recent version 4.2.2 from last week, unlike prior ones, it ignores factions either moved to Inactive or whose headers are collapsed. Sure enough, that mod never improperly switches the rep bar to your guild when the guild is set to inactive (or its header is collapsed). It always properly shows the last faction change. Be nice to see this in AutoRepSwitch. |
