Getplayerbuff issue

[Shäken]

I know the function "getplayerbuff" has been removed since patch 3.0.2, but is there anything replacing it ?

Thanx for help

In this code (used to track is a shout is active on a warrior and warn if not), if I replace the "getplayerbuff" part by a "unitaura" or "unitbuff" code, will the rest of the code work or do I have to replace it ?

function battleshoutreminder_reminder()	

	local playerclass = UnitClass("player");
	
	if (playerclass ~= "Warrior") then
		DisableAddOn("BattleShoutReminder");
	else		
	
	local i;
	local buffs = {};
	local j = 0;
	local Aura_On;
	local k = 0;
	local name, rank;
	
-- Get all Buffs of the Player

	for i=1, 16, 1 do
 		name, rank = GetPlayerBuffName(i); 
 		
 		if (name == nil) then 

 		else	
 			buffs[i] = name;
			j = j + 1;
 		end 		
	end

-- Check if the Buffs on the Player contain any Shout	
	for i=1, j, 1 do
		Aura_On = strfind(buffs[i], "Shout");
  	   	if (Aura_On == nil) then
  		else
    		k = Aura_On;
    	end
    	
	end 

-- If there is no Shout, put an annoying message on the screen	
	
	if (k == 0) and InCombatLockdown() then
    	UIErrorsFrame:AddMessage("Shout Missing!", 0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1);
	end

end			

end

GetPlayerBuffName(i) will need to be changed to UnitAura("player", i, "HELPFUL") or UnitBuff("player", i)

It should work if you just change this.

The player can have more than 16 buffs now, so there is potential for your routine to not find a buff you currently have.

Thanks all of you !
That works now.
