Nope, this did not work either. Anyone have any other suggestions by chance?

Edit: Also, when I type in the following;

[Range:IsGreater(29)?Red]

it turns into;

[ [Range > 29] ? Red]

Not sure whether or not this is intentional. When I type it in, the nameplates on my raid frames disappear completely.

2nd edit: Got it working. For some reason the range had to be 27 yards or below, maybe it is because of my class and that I have no 30 yard spells? Not really sure. If anyone wants the code to use themselves (because I cannot stand the default range checker) here it is.

[MinRange > 27 ? Red][Name]

Im curious to know if its possible highlight a player frame in my raid party window for when I cast Earth Shield on them? This would be in place of the buff/debuff icons and would look like a frame does when say someone gets a poison on them that i can cure.

Strange. I've noticed that the health bar portion of my target disappears everytime I crit. It appears to disable itself. I go into Pitbull, disable and enable and then all is good...until the next time I crit.

It's fine to use them at the same time. For example, pitbull for target/focus/player and xperl for raidframes. If you want to do something like pitbull for 10 mans and xperl for 25 mans, it works fine but needs to be set up before each raid.

Same thing happened to me, i never connected the dots to realize that it was based on a crit, i am a rogue though. I reloaded the UI each time I had a break in the action in AV last night and that solved the problem. I was also getting two different lua errors. My target frame totally fades out very quickly and afterwards does not fade in upon changing targets. Raid icons and combo points both show as normal on a blank window.

I'll edit to post the lua errors once i get home, I havent had enough coffee to remember them yet.

This may fix your problem; there is no longer any need for the AltAura addon as Ckknight completely rewrite the Aura module of Pitbull this week, it has been released (you can download it off WAU as we speak, it still has a couple of bugs which will be fixed within the next couple of hours I imagine) and is pretty much ready for use, it comes with complete customization of the Aura frames, which is what people have wanted for a very long time, and I must say it's quite a nice improvement

So go get the latest Revision!

Would be nice in the future if major updates like that weren't actually released until they were in a working state. I did an update just before raiding yesterday morning, and ended up with a useless Pitbull: For the first couple of bosses in Hyjal I was trying to play with a huge Lua error frame in the middle of my screen and no auras or bars on my target frame.

Not really a big deal, it was easy enough for me to relog quickly and switch to Ag_UF. I'm just glad happened on farmed content and didn't screw up a progression attempt.

Did not check if someone has posted this already. For those of you who want to see buffs from other classes as well as your own when you turn on buff filtering, I solved this issue by modifying the Aura.lua file found in the pitbul/aura folder. Its a very easy modification, just copy-paste. I will show what I did for my priest. PPl can do the same with their class

This is the function in Aura.lua that defines which fiend buffs to filter for the priest class.

		friendBuffs = {
			[BSL["Divine Spirit"]] = true,
			[BSL["Elune's Grace"]] = playerRace == "NightElf" or nil,
			[BSL["Fear Ward"]] = (playerRace == "Draenei" or playerRace == "Dwarf") or nil,
			[BSL["Power Infusion"]] = true,
			[BSL["Power Word: Fortitude"]] = true,
			[BSL["Power Word: Shield"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Fortitude"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Mending"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Shadow Protection"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Spirit"]] = true,
			[BSL["Renew"]] = true,
			[BSL["Symbol of Hope"]] = playerRace == "Draenei" or nil,
			[BSL["Shadow Protection"]] = true,

I simply copy-pasted the relevant entries from the druid and paladin class. So my modified lua looks like this. Also changed the argument on fearward true since now all priests have fearward

}
		friendBuffs = {
			[BSL["Divine Spirit"]] = true,
			[BSL["Elune's Grace"]] = playerRace == "NightElf" or nil,
			[BSL["Fear Ward"]] = true,
			[BSL["Power Infusion"]] = true,
			[BSL["Power Word: Fortitude"]] = true,
			[BSL["Power Word: Shield"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Fortitude"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Mending"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Shadow Protection"]] = true,
			[BSL["Prayer of Spirit"]] = true,
			[BSL["Renew"]] = true,
			[BSL["Symbol of Hope"]] = playerRace == "Draenei" or nil,
			[BSL["Shadow Protection"]] = true,
                        [BSL["Innervate"]] = true,
			[BSL["Lifebloom"]] = true,
			[BSL["Regrowth"]] = true,
			[BSL["Rejuvenation"]] = true,
			[BSL["Tranquility"]] = true,
			[BSL["Tree of Life"]] = true,
			[BSL["Blessing of Protection"]] = true,
			[BSL["Gift of the Naaru"]] = true,
		}

Hey presto now I can see druid HoTs BoP fearward and GotN even with buff filtering on

oUF seems to be what I was looking for, thank you.

I couldn't find anything in regards to an issue i am having in the past few pages. Every now and then my pitbull completely messes up in regards to buffs and debuffs. It happens mostly in arenas and it does not update my party frame with the proper buffs. For example a shaman purged everything off my entire party but it showed them as having full buffs in the party frame. Selecting the individual members showed the proper lack of buffs. Same goes for debuffs as one party member had a full set of warlock dots yet the party frame showed nothing. Anyone else experience this or have an idea what might be causing this problem? This also happens randomly.

Ok, I've use Pitbull for awhile now, recently I chose to rebuild my UI and am in the process of setting it back up but now whenever I attempt to modify Pitbull's target frame, WoW crashes. I can safely adjust the other frames but even selecting the target frame options causes the crash. Attempting this with no other addons active has the same result. Does anyone have any idea what is wrong? Or am I just stuck switching to another unit frames addon?

(Ellipsis) I don't have an EJ account, but can you ask him if he uses VisualThemes? it can cause crashes while using RockConfig.

I do, Thank you. I did at least solve my problem by simply using an old version of Pitbull. I just hope Blizzard doesn't break it anytime soon. But it is nice to know the sourse of the problem.

I was having this problem on the PTR but not on live. We were doing Sunwell and periodically my buffs would just stop appearing, or it would cut down to showing like 2 random buffs on me and no debuffs on the boss. If I went into the aura modules for each frame and disabled/enabled buffs and debuffs everything would appear again normally for a bit. Once again though, no issues on Live.
