I really love this addon and its sister addon. However, there is a major flaw in this addon that I've fixed.

GetNumFactions() cannot be relied on to return the correct number of factions the character has. What this functions really does is return the number of lines in your faction display. Factions under a collapsed header are not counted at all. Hence the problems I and others were having. The scanning functions was terminating before actually scanning all factions resulting in missing data.

Blizzard really needs to rename this function to GetNumFactionLines() or something similar and add one that does what the current function sounds like it does. There is a way, however, to scan all reputations regardless of their expanded/collapsed state. The patched version can be found on my website here and shall remain there more or less indefinitely unless the patch become official. If I knew how to upload it here as a patch or something without creating another addon with "(fixed)" in the title I would.

To demonstrate the difference I added two slash commands. /repscan and /repscanold using the new and old scanning methods, respectively. On my main toon /repscan returns 105 factions while /repscanold returns only 33. Even with everything expanded it still doesn't quite get them all. [edit]Scratch that now that I fixed my counting issue /repscan and /repscanold match now with everything expanded.[/edit]

You will need to log into all of your characters to get the missing factions added but that should be obvious, right?

@Aranarth or current addon maintainer: I'm not worried about getting credit at all. If you wish to implement my fix as an official fix, unmodified or otherwise, by all means please do!

[edit]
Updated my patch.

• Fixed a possible nil operation. One out of my 5 character ran into it every single time the rest had no problem.
• Fixed counting bug. Now only counts the factions and headers that have rep. Before I was mistakingly counting them all.

Update: Somehow suddenly some of the rep begins to show up on alts, but with very different result. I have 10 characters all member of the same guild. Moused over the guildrep on all characters but alt rep only shows the rep for 3 of my characters. My death knights rep with different factions doesnt show at all. All in all, this addon seems not to be working as it should.

Then its still not working. Now it records no factions at all. I have hovered over factions both in blizzards rep tap and your ara broker rep addon. This is what I get from alt.lua in your newest version after hovering over factions on 3 characters. I can mention, that the alt.lua file doesnt get created before I have logged into a second character.

AraReputationsAltsDB = {
["Silvermoon"] = {
["Calexia"] = {
["class"] = "MAGE",
["faction"] = "Alliance",
["factions"] = {
},
},
["Alexizi"] = {
["class"] = "WARLOCK",
["factions"] = {
},
["faction"] = "Alliance",
},
["Animalia"] = {
["class"] = "HUNTER",
["factions"] = {
},
["faction"] = "Alliance",
},
},
}

Is the r2 version the new updated version? Because the r2 version I have on my pc is downloaded july 12.

I am sorry, but it still doesnt work. It only shows alt rep for Alliance Vanguard and no other factions.

This is what alt.lua gave me after I hovered over all factions from 2 characters:

AraReputationsAltsDB = {
["Silvermoon"] = {
["Summersby"] = {
["class"] = "DEATHKNIGHT",
["factions"] = {
["Alliance Vanguard"] = 42999,
},
["faction"] = "Alliance",
},
["Animalia"] = {
["class"] = "HUNTER",
["faction"] = "Alliance",
["factions"] = {
},
},
},
}

I am using Titan Panels.

It doesnt work for me either. I have version 11 of ara broker reputation and have hovered over some shared factions on a few characters, but the alt rep doesnt show at all. I have the option to remove an alt though.

I'm having a similar issue. I'm using r11, and only guild rep seems to show a tooltip and only for one of my alts. No other alts are appearing. I've logged them all in, hovered over all of their reps in my broker popup (using TitanPanel, is that an issue?) and logged them all out (to save variable data).

Edit: Also, when I right click to check the settings for the ABR, and select "Remove an alt" it picks up the names of all of my alts fine, so it's getting that data at least. Just not showing any alt tooltips.
