FAQs
Q: My friend's character name is colored gray, what happened?
A: Some times the server is overloaded and will not return all the information about your friends, since the addon does not know what class your friend is playing the name is colored gray.
Q: My friend's character name is colored like they are on their previous toon, what happened?
A: Similar to the above question. Sometimes the wrong information is returned during periods of high load. I haven't been able to force this to happen, although I have seen it happen. I am working on trying to solve the issue efficiently.
Q: Your addon threw an error!
A: Please post a ticket on WoWAce, but first check to see if your problem has already been reported and that you are using the current version. Remember, being as detailed as possible in your report will help me fix it faster.

That's true. I have a complete custom UI that I downloaded (allez UI) and it suppresses the real id info both on the login and log off. So i downloaded this add-on to supplement.

Any chance to add logoff notifications too?
Maybe they are there and I'm just not seeing it? |

And... maybe not so easy to get the guild information. It seems only friends in your guild actually return a guild name when you call the BNet functions.

I'm not sure you'd be interested in putting this in the main line of code, but I have always modified this to include the characters level, race, and class to the code. The diff is as follows.
Code:
diff -rw /WoW-Apps/World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns/RealIDToons/Core.lua RealIDToons/Core.lua 31c31 < local _, toon, _, realm, faction, race, class, _, _, level = BNGetToonInfo(toonID) --- > local _, toon, _, realm, faction, _, class = BNGetToonInfo(toonID) 56d55 < toon = toon .. " - " .. level .. " " .. race .. " " .. class |

I am aware of the issue related to not being able to bring up the right click menu on the custom login alerts, I'm working on a fix and once it's tested and I'm sure it won't cause side-effects it will be released.
