How to fix your favorite addon after patch 5.4.1

Recommended Posts

I am guessing there were some interesting changes that had to occur with the combining of realms.  One of them was the removal of the "realName" variable from the list of main program variables (the CVar list).  Many addons used this method to acquire the realm name or server name.  It no longer exists.  If you are having a problem with an addon; you need to open the .LUA file (in any text editor) from the file throwing the error and:

 

Replace

 

GetCVar("realmName")

 

with

 

GetRealmName()

 

The addon will work without throwing an error and there will be no change in its operation.  I will work as intended.

 

Good HUnting!
